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.

Doreen 006
Excellent posing by Doreen and a bit of nostalgia added by editing her portrait in the style of the 1930's. There were no contact lenses in those days so anyone with fairly strong myopia was wearing glasses. The famous American writer Dorothy Parker (1893 - 1967) was quite shortsighted but she refused to wear her glasses in public. One of her famous quotes was: "Men seldom make passes at girls in glasses".
Here Doreen is giving evidence that even long before becoming a fashion statement, glasses could indeed add a lovely touch to the face of a good looking lady. With due respect, Dorothy Parker was wrong!
