Happy Belated Birthday, Nana

I got all excited because I heard it was Nana Mouskouri's birthday today, but Wikipedia tells me that I'm two days late. Either way, a Happy belated Birthday to Nana, who should be a fashion icon to any bespectacled girl. For all of us, these are tough times what with Sarah Palin being the poster child for eyeglasses at the moment. To cheer you up, here's some Quincy Jones-produced excellence. Hang in there, girls, and Happy belated Birthday, Nana.



Rock those big frames, girl.

Yves Saint Laurent

As a great lover of all bespectacled people (especially ones who wear their frames as big as they come), I was sad to hear Yves Saint Laurent passed away. As a tribute, some of my favourite outfits from Belle de Jour.
