TRIWA For Good Scandinavian Design

Good personal style can often be broken down to a very small factor – how you manage the details. This can be quite tricky, but thankfully Swedish accessories label TRIWA is making this so much easier for us.

Inspired by the idea of simplicity and practicality, TRIWA began as a watch label that offered something outside of the gaudy and the overdone. Paired back time-pieces that accentuated rather than overshadowed your outfit, their philosophy can be described as the purity of Scandinavian design aesthetics combined with a penchant for colour.

And they also do sunglasses now too, which is obviously great for anyone who is a regular to our sunny good-time-all-the-time locale. Following in step with their belief that the elegant need not be over the top, TRIWA eyewear is a step back in time to those golden years when design was all about the details.

For their latest collection (their spring, our autumn…or perennial summer as it really is when you live in paradise) was inspired by the sights, sounds and scents of the beauty of Istanbul in Turkey. New colours have been introduced to staple favourite, Niben, that include a contrasting gold and vivid purple straps. Sunnies frames would not be out of place on the flawless face of an iconic 40s starlet and perfect for a day, sun bathing on a boat on the Bosporus. Or hanging out down at Lake Burley Griffin
