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.

The lenses in these "Agatha Christie" bifocals are above plus five and they only show the model's eyes when captured almost "en face". Note the circular reading segments which were popular in the Netherlands during the 1970's. They were even more popular in the UK where cat eye frames could be seen in the streets until the 1990's. I am not entirely sure whether these cat eye glasses are really half a century old. But the style is definitely what was seen in the streets when I was a child. Young and innocent days....
