Romeo Bekham to create sunglasses line for kidsSeptember 23, 2010
Romeo Beckham, the eight-year-old son of celebrities David and Victoria Beckham, recently signed a commercial deal that will pave the way for his new line of sunglasses for kids, reports the The Mirror. Under the label RB, the young Beckham plans to make trendy eyeglasses of his own design. This may come as no surprise, since the boy's parents are known to be fashion icons, and his mother is also a fashion designer. An anonymous source familiar with the fashionable pre-teen told the news provider, "Rome has a real eye for fashion. He has strong opinions on what works and what doesn't, and has been badgering David and Victoria for months about designing his own sunglasses." The source added that currently there are very few fashionable glasses for children that offer full protection from UV radiation. Furthermore, it looks like Romeo will be getting some assistance from his posh mom when he launches the first line. According to the American Optometric Association, proper sunglasses should screen out 99 to 100 percent of both UV-A and UV-B radiation. Children should visit their eye doctor for a full exam once every two years.
