Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise stopped by a sports camp at Chelsea Piers, Katie looking schoolgirl chic in a pair of black bird-print shorts. She coordinated her bottoms with a white collared blouse, topped with a chunky off-white cardigan. Her go-to Isabel Marant booties dressed her feet, her tan woven bag hung off her shoulder, and these Oliver Peoples round metal sunglasses ($405) shielded her eyes. Re-create Katie's boyish sweet look by working printed shorts — like these equally sweet polka-dot shorts by Love Ady ($34, originally $48) — with a blouse, an oversized knit cardigan, and ankle boots.

Ashley Tisdale stepped out of the Byron and Tracy salon in Beverly Hills looking cute and casual. Her knit Free People sweater, light gray skinnies, and knee-high Loeffler Randall boots were perfect for a day of errands. Not one to travel light, Ashley toted a creme Chanel bag and oversize Balenciaga weekender. She completed her laid-back look with Oliver Peoples sunglasses and a simple pendant.

Oliver Peoples defines understated cool. They're not flashy sunglasses, and never will be. But somehow, the line based out of LA has become super fly, for the best reasons: the shades are really well-made and always seem to hone in on just the right shape. So just who is Oliver Peoples? We spoke with founder and creative director Larry Leight to get some good dirt on this quietly awesome brand. Here are five things you didn't know:

• Oliver Peoples was a man before a brand
  In 1986, optician Larry Leight purchased an estate collection of vintage, American-made eyewear, which included beautiful filigreed frames and clip-ons from the American machine age. With this purchase was a receipt signed by "Oliver Peoples," who was presumed to be the original owner. According to the estate seller, the man had no known living family, so Larry decided to name the store (and later the wholesale company) Oliver Peoples in his honor.
