Aura Clarity x Kodes Accessories
Head-Turning Relief in the Capital
In the heart of London, amidst the vibrant tapestry of its streets, Annaliese Dayes stands as a beacon of style and resilience. This shoot captures the essence of urban elegance as Annaliese dons the Nirvana sunglasses by Aura Clarity, accentuated by the striking Raya chain from North London’s own Kodes.
We love how Annaliese radiates fearless styling, unapologetic individuality, and the flair for turning function into fashion.
Known for her infectious energy and fearless personal style, Annaliese has made a name for herself not only on the runway and screen, but also as a champion of confidence and self-expression. Whether she’s presenting at 100% Optical London, producing a show, or posing for a shoot, she radiates the same empowered spirit that defines the Nirvana frame she wears—a sharp, modern cat-eye silhouette in a brilliant blue hue that’s impossible to ignore.
Nirvana by Aura Clarity // Bold Eyewear with Built-In Relief
Scheduled to be launched next month, Nirvana isn’t just a statement of fashion, it’s one of self-care. Designed by Aura Clarity, a UK-based brand built by and for people with migraine and sensory sensitivity, this frame is much more than surface-level style. Behind its bold look is FL-41 lens technology, clinically shown to reduce visual strain and migraine triggers by filtering harmful blue light.
It’s a frame engineered for both comfort and clarity, offering relief to those who need it most—and let’s face it, just looking at Annaliese in these shades might take your headache away already.
Raya by Kodes // The Chain That Makes Eyewear Pop
Elevating the look further is the Raya chain from Kodes, designed by Morena Fiore in North London. A vibrant teal accessory with animal print accents, Raya adds dimension and drama—while keeping your glasses close at hand.
Annaliese also sports Kodes’ unique aromatherapy diffuser chain, featuring lapis lazuli and lava beads. Just add a few drops of essential oil onto the porous lava rock beads and you’re wrapped in calming scents all day, ideal for moments of pause amid London’s ever-spinning pace.

About Kodes
Kodes is a British accessories brand that creates bold, geometric jewellery and glasses chains with a playful spirit and a strong sense of individuality. Designed and handmade by Morena Fiore in London, the brand brings together vibrant colors, unexpected materials, and clean architectural shapes to deliver statement pieces that uplift everyday style.
What sets Kodes apart is the jewellery influence behind each glasses chain: bold design, thoughtful details, and a focus on self-expression. Inspired by the colours of Morena’s homeland, Puglia, statement jewellery, Art Deco design and architecture, and 60s colour palettes, every chain is carefully made using elements like Czech seed beads, semi-precious stones, jewellery findings, and Kodes’ signature hexagon shapes.Â
The spectacles chains forge practicality with boldness, making them wearable accessories that bring personality and a pop of colour to your everyday frames.
Having had Alopecia since the age of 12 and losing all her hair to it, Morena, the founder of Kodes, began using jewellery as a way to express her creativity, something she couldn’t do through her hair. Today, Kodes is about celebrating what makes you unique, and its customers do the same, using each piece to express their own personality and creativity. From chunky color-blocked pieces to delicate spectacles chains adorned with semi-precious stones, these accessories are made to turn heads, start conversations, and spark joy.
