This blog is dedicated to ladies in glasses. The vast majority of the portraits on this blog feature ladies wearing glasses near their own Rx. I felt that this would give a more natural flavour to the pictures and also a more natural setting for the photo shoots from which the pictures on this blog are selected. Nearly all the glasses featured in this blog are from my own collection.

Marike 014
Great posing by Marike in "Flair" glasses from the late 1960's. Between 1967 and 1970 there was a tidal wave in eyewear design. The glasses got bigger and bigger but equally important, designers had the guts to experiment with a wide variety in shapes and new materials. Oval glasses were "not done" in the late fifties and early sixties. Witnessing all these changes in the street was a fascinating experience and it was my desire to become an optician. This plan never materialized but the current photography project is a fine substitute.
