Dragon Letting Loose

When you work hard at making the best sunglasses on the market, sometimes you just really need to let loose. Here is our favorite sunglass designer with our international sales killer, Ashley, having some fun.


What happens when co-workers drink together?


You get drunk...that’s what happens. Duh. Myself and our International Department resident bad ass Ashley went out with our other International Department resident bad ass/aussie-Canadian Jane (not pictured). Jane decided it would be fun to take photos of Ash and I (drinking...it was Friday and we were celebrating). She then proceeded to do some super artsy fancy treatments on said photos which begs the question “What happened to normal photos taken with a disposable camera? Where did those days go?” Oh, that’s right they are buried underground with the dinosaurs...but I digress...Anyway, I tried to take photos of them as well but I didn’t know how to work Jane’s phone and she kept yelling at me, so I got nervous. And when I get nervous the only cure for that is more Pinot Grigio. Waitress!

Platinum and Power Point Presentations

Here is Dragon's sunglass designer explaining her love of presentations and Baywatch...


There are two things that I do a lot of... change my hair style/color, and Power Point Presentations. Obviously one is more fun than the other. I bet you can’t guess which one though. 


Both of my two favorite things are captured in this photo...my recently new dye job going to Platinum blonde (which I swore I would NEVER be...never say never...never), and me schooling the Power Points of the world with my dazzling Spring 2012 Eyewear Line presentation. Thumbs up to that for sure.

Balch's Bits of Radicalgnarness

What's inspiring Dragon's sunglass designer today?? This...
This is a random post...but I came across this pic online a few months ago and about had an awesomeness brain hemorrhage. 

Not only do I LOVE Freddie Mercury and think that Bohemian Rhapsody is a musical masterpiece, but I LOVE his outfit in this photo and his casual stance and vibe about him. Oh, and did I mention he’s with MJ in his early days? No big deal.

RetroSpect in LA LA Land

Dragon's sunglass designer is back with her latest installment of bits of awesomeness. Check out the blog for more from everyone's favorite Balch.

Me and the boys recently made a trip to LA for the new RetroSpect Collection photo shoot....we were shooting sexy Matt Beachman, our resident stud AJ, and Sean “The Hair” Taylor in the new Viceroy and Roosevelt frames out later this year. And to break up the sausage party, our pretty lady friend Kelsey came along to model the new Viceroy shades as well. Here are some behind the scenes pics from the shoot...just a little tease to get everyone pumped on the new RetroSpect Collection....

Dragon Artist and International Man of Amazingness, Scoph

Dragon artist, Scoph, was recently featured in a great interview on Inky Little Sun Beams. He is one talented artist and a great guy all around. Check out the feature...and his art. Also, be on the look out for his art coming to a gallery near you this summer. Details to come...

When your work sells out ahead of a show next to Banksy, it's a massive sign of respect. Schoph has stayed true to his roots throughout, fiercely proud of his art, friends and work, he tells us how he's developed a lifestyle doing things that he loves and inspire him on a daily basis all of which reflect a little bit, or a whole lot of who he is...Read the full interview HERE.




An Idea Isn't Responsible for the People who Believe in it...

 The Man himself, Scoph

Hill and Geordie Do Mammoth

Dragon's PLM, Hillary Balch, is back again. Here is a little tid bit on her recent trip to Mammoth. Check out the new goggle color way...pretty bling... 

I know no one wants to see a romantic vacation of me and my boyfriend so I’ll spare you all the explicit photos...(...or will I?)

We hit up Mammoth for one last trip before the season is over and it was amazing...sunny, great snow, no wind (surprising for Mammoth), and we brought our new child Walter the Weiner Dog for his first encounter with snow. And his first encounter with a massive mammal...Bodie, a Bernese Mountain Dog that belongs to our snow TM Alex Pashley.


Geordie was wearing the new APX goggles which he thought were amazing and I was wearing the new Hogwild color in the Rogue. Because I like glitter and sparkly things.

Pets Look Good in Dragons....

Dragon's PLM, Hillary Balch, is back with some more inspiration for all you kiddies out there. Pics of her furry children, Vader the cat and Walter the weiner dog, trying on some new color samples in the Decca and BLVD....They weren’t super into it but we got a few good shots of them. Next ad campaign maybe?
