Some frames were never meant to blend in 🤍🖤

An oversized silhouette, larger lenses, and a clean finish that makes a statement without saying too much.

It’s bold, unexpected and completely your own.

Your sign to let your frames do the talking 🕶️

Love your eyes. Because the way you see the world matters.

Today is World Sight Day, a reminder to prioritize our eye health and recognize how much we rely on our vision every day.

Seeing clearly is about more than what’s in front of you. It’s how we experience the people, places, and moments that shape our lives.

This World Sight Day, let’s put eye health in focus. Prioritize your vision. Get the care you need. And help make quality eye care accessible to everyone, everywhere.

Because the way you see the world matters.

We See You. 🖤

Some moments deserve a second look ✨

Bôhten & Friends was a celebration of the people, brands, and culture that make this community what it is.

Grateful to our fellow Black-owned brands Fred Mawuli Deegbe, our sponsors, and everyone who came through to connect, support, shop, and share in the moment.

And a special thank you to Kof Mo for capturing the energy so beautifully. 📸

More than a gathering. A whole energy. ✨

In celebration of New York Fashion Week, we came together for Bôhten & Friends, an evening to connect, create, shop, share, and celebrate.

From familiar faces to new connections, it was a beautiful reminder of what happens when community shows up for community. Bôhten was proud to be surrounded by fellow Black-owned brands Fred Mawuli Deegbe and Blackleaf Organic Vodka, creatives, and supporters who brought their own stories, style, and energy into the space.

It was a night of fashion, people and purpose.

When these three combine, it’s undeniable something bigger takes shape.

Thank you to everyone who showed up and made this one special.

We see you. 🖤
