Greta dropped by the Hamilton store for a day’s work and was more than happy to help us out by trying on a few pairs of sunnies. At 12, Glenn and Jo’s granddaughter negotiated her wages very carefully: doughnuts and hot chocolate.

She’s also quietly campaigning for a new pair of sunnies of her own and reckons one of these might just fit the bill.

Aside from looking great, these sunglasses offer excellent sun protection and can also be fitted with tinted optical lenses if you have a vision script — so you don’t have to choose between style and clear vision.

Pop in and see us in store to find a pair that’s right for you.
