Tinie Tempah Top 5 Eyewear Looks

If you watched the new series of Top Gear this week, you probably enjoyed the guest appearance by Tinie Tempah who joined the gang on a trip to South Africa and became Matt LeBlanc’s co-driver. For those who don’t already know, Tinie is a British rapper, singer, songwriter, and record producer who’s had a string of hits and number one singles. But music isn’t all that Tinie Tempah is known for.

It’s no secret that Tinie is a big eyewear fan. In fact, you’ll rarely see the well-dressed star without a pair of stylish specs or designer sunglasses on his face. He regularly shares selfies wearing his favourite frames and just last week, he showed off part of his extensive eyewear collection in an Instagram post, which featured a huge haul of Linda Farrow eyewear.
