Corinne McCormack's Jewel Baroque and Starkitecture Eyewear Collections Bring a Flair for Color and Shine to Holiday

NEW YORK, NEW YORK (September 2009) - Eyewear designer Corinne McCormack has always believed eyewear should be an expressive accessory, not an afterthought. Her new Jewel Baroque and Starkitecture collections feature colorful, statement-making eyewear that's a perfect foundation for holiday dressing.

Complement rich, saturated colors in a holiday wardrobe with Jewel Baroque eyewear in full-tilt color and shine. Decadent colors like royal purple, intense teal and brilliant ruby feature sparkling hematite beads and lustrous Aurora Borealis stones. The pairing of color and shine hit the perfect note for the festive season.

Corinne McCormack embraces fashion's infatuation with the eighties with her new Starkitecture collection. She reinterprets the era of power dressing and Day Glo color with her own distinctly wearable variation on the theme. The collection's crisp, elongated profile and pop-y flashes of bright pink, purple or yellow paired with black take inspiration straight from the runway. Perfect as the finishing stroke on a total eighties look or as a single accessory that gives nod to the period, Starkitecture eyewear is a dose of high-energy color.

The Corinne McCormack Collection includes eyewear, optic necklaces (replacing eyeglass chains of the past), EyeRings (a patented Corinne McCormack design to add even greater style to eye chains), and eyeglass cases. Corinne McCormack Eyewear is sold at better department stores and optical stores including Bloomingdale's, Lord and Taylor, Lenscrafters, and on the internet at www.eye-bar.com.
