Attention glasses wearers

I have something fun for you. As in: you can earn a travel voucher worth a thousand euros, gain eternal world fame, and also keep some nice pictures + a new pair of glasses. Sounds good or good?
Who, what, where? Specsavers is organizing the funnest Glasses Wearer of the Year election for the 18th time in June. Because wearing glasses is not only fashionable, but you can also make a statement with them. I knew that all along, of course. If you, like me, have a glasses-wearing family, you can also sign up with the whole family (or just with your little brother, father, or mom) for the funnest glasses family in the Netherlands. How cozy is that? That's what I mean. You see, glasses have actually become cooler over the years. And because there is no one sexier than Harvey Specter with glasses, I have gathered some handsome faces that are actually much cooler when they wear glasses.

Gabriel Macht

Starting with my ultimate dream man. Also known as Harvey Specter. Women want to be with him, men want to be him. And with glasses? Man, it's just too hot.

Lauren Conrad

Even back in the era of The Hills, I thought glasses suited her well. In fact: thanks to Lauren, I almost hoped as a teenager for bad eyesight so I could have the black rectangular glasses she always wore in the lecture hall. By the way, that eyesight thing came true. And thanks, Lauren.

Anouk Smulders

Anouk cannot be missing from this list. Come on, former top model + glasses is the ultimate hotness, right? Her tip? Make sure you have at least two cool frames in your closet so you can vary nicely.

Victoria Beckham

No businesswoman can wear glasses as well as Victoria. With a pencil skirt, over a white blouse, with trousers, the glasses are her statement item.

Johnny Depp

If you can rock even glasses with colored lenses like no one else, then you are just cool. By the way, did you know that Johnny has been almost blind in his left eye since he was little?

Kylie Minogue

I would say read this for a moment, and you'll immediately understand why I'm in love with Kylie in glasses. And actually, it makes her look a lot younger and cooler if you ask me.

Jan Kooijman

The fun thing about Jan is that I've spotted him with about twelve different frames. Small and round, large and square, brown, black, whatever he does, it makes him look intelligent and sexy.

Justin Timberlake

Is it very wrong to say that I get quite warm from Justin's Mark Zuckerberg-like nerd look? And don't think that Justin does it just for the hipness, the singer even once told Jimmy Kimmel: “I can see you, but I can’t see any of the audience.”
Anyone who still doesn't realize that wearing glasses is not just for nerds can go stand in the corner. Excited about that travel voucher of 1000 euros? And do you think you have the coolest glasses family on earth? You can sign up via www.glassesweareroftheyear.nl. (PS. mom, sister, get ready for what I'm going to sign us up for here. Maybe I'll score extra points because our own May is on the jury, moehaha.)
