Selima Optique at The Cools Jamboree

The Selima Optique team was honored to take part in The Cools debut Jamboree this past Wednesday and had a blast!

Amidst a sea of cool, creative downtown types from event curators to patrons, everyone on hand brought a positively vibrant energy to the evening! With a line around the block, many consider this event to be 'the event of the summer' and we couldn't have been more thrilled to take part in it. And in case you couldn't make it out or in, there's talk of another Jamboree slated for August -details to come!

The CFDA girls got the ball rolling on our 'Draw a Winning Frame Contest' with this adorable homage to Selima!

An open house of sorts, our room was full with a lively bunch throughout the evening.
