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.

Jolien 341
Jolien posing in a pair of vintage cat eye glasses from the UK. The style of the frame is quite typical for the late 1950's but I saw many elderly ladies in England wearing cat eye glasses like these as late as the 1990's. They are bifocals with circle shaped reading segments. In the Netherlands, this type of bifocal lens did not appear in the streets until the mid 1960's. Whatever the year of manufacture, these cat eye glasses are a cherished item in my collection.
