… at girls who wear glasses. That might have been true when the saying was coined and glasses were devices for correcting eyesight rather than fashion statements. But it hardly holds true today, thanks to good advertising and designer frames. I’ve heard that some pretty girls wear glasses despite having perfect vision - perhaps to suggest that their IQ is greater than their bust measurement. Emma has worn glasses since her teenage years - for distance. [Cue for juvenile joke. Longsuffering wife says she needs glasses “for distance“. Skinflint husband takes her outside, points up at the sun, and asks, “What do you see?” “The sun,” she replies. “Well,” says her husband, “That’s 93 million miles away. How much further do you want to see?”] Emma’s eyesight has slowly improved over the years, but until recently she wore glasses most of the time. Which makes me wonder why I have so few photographs of her wearing specs. Or perhaps you failed to notice she is wearing them in this picture.posted by sooyup on Daily trivia, Photographing Emm
