Growing up, glasses may have made you an object of ridicule (was anyone else called four-eyes or was that just us?), but now there are so many fashionable options and statement frames that it’s easy to look iconic while wearing glasses.
These lesbian and sapphic celebs are making spectacles look spectacular. From stars who have made statement glasses part of their signature looks to superstars who wear fashion frames that make their outfit, to celebrities who are making our dreams come true with their sexy professor vibes, we’re loving that glasses have become cool.
