Glasses Nicole Kidman

NICOLE KIDMAN GOT WHAT SHE WANTED

Nicole Kidman recently revealed to Vogue’s Off the Cuff (an online interview feature) that one of the only wardrobe items she wishes she had kept over the years were the glasses her character wore in the film, Eyes Wide Shut. Unfortunately, the round metal framed Olivier Peoples glasses have been discontinued, but a quick thinking representative from the eyeglass company found a pair in their archives and shipped them to Nicole in Nashville. According to my source, Nicole was overjoyed at the gesture and sent a lavish basket of culinary goodies to the company as a thank you.

Fashion Glasses Oscars Renee Zellweger

RENEE ZELLWEGER HAD A BRIDGET JONES MOMENT ON THE OSCARS

There was considerable discussion about WHAT Renee Zellweger was ON that caused her to fidget onstage when she was lined up with several presenters on The Oscars. Twice she was handed THE ENVELOPE to announce the winner, and both times she looked stricken and awkwardly passed it on to another presenter. We think she simply refuses to wear reading glasses. She was able to read the prompter at a distance, but up close – NO WAY – so she handed the envelopes to someone who would read them right. She’s 43 now, and like Bridget Jones, maybe she doesn’t like to be reminded of it. Her gold dress DID look rather spectacular.

SOPHIA LOREN: DOUBLE VISION

#sophialoren #janetcharlton

It’s always fun to see Sophia Loren. She’s connected to a number of businesses – and one of them is the glamorous Italian jewelry company Damiani. They have a pricey Sophia Loren collection and she showed up at a recent PR event, looking spiffy – except for those oversize glasses. She has her own eyewear collection to promote also and might be overdoing it a bit by wearing TWO pairs of glasses at the same time.

Glasses Kardashian Kardashian Kollection Sears

OPTICAL ILLUSION KARDASHIAN STYLE

Okay, we stopped dead when we saw this photo of the Kardashian sisters promoting their new eyewear collection for Sears. Was there no budget for a stylist? Those three hideously cheap looking dresses in stretch black lace remind one of Forever 21 in the 90’s. SO dated. Naturally, they happen to be from the Kardashian Kollection for Sears. And there’s nothing edgy or modern or flattering about the eyeglass frames either. The Kardashian brand is devolving rapidly. Obviously the ad budget was blown on photoshopping and extensions for the sisters. What would Kanye think of this?
