Everyone's favourite Manic Pixie Dream Girl* – Zooey Deschanel stars in a new television show called New Girl wearing geeky glasses starting on Ch 4 in the UK tonight at 8:30pm. There has always been something about the lovely Zooey that is so quirky and adorable and its great to see that the (500) Days of Summer actress has at last landed the leading role in a successful new TV series.
New Girl has been nominated for two Golden Globes in the US – ‘Best Television...

Holly Willoughby's new look?
The lovely Holly Willoughby donned these massive specs for a segment on the This Morning show with co-presenter Philip Schofield. What do you think – Geek Chic or a bit Deirdre Barlow?
Either way, there is still something very alluring about Holly Willoughby, despite the somewhat out-dated glasses. Here she is seen on screen with Philip Schofield also in character with some "slightly" smaller rounder specs.

We think Holly would look amazing in some nice Tom Ford
Daniel Craig to wear Tom Ford Sunglasses in James Bond: Skyfall
By James (SelectSpecs) - December 1, 2011 | Celebrity Glasses, Designer Sunglasses, Entertainment | 2 CommentsWell well well, it's been officially confirmed that Daniel Craig will be wearing Tom Ford Sunglasses in the next installment of the James Bond franchise, Skyfall, to be released on the 26th October 2012 in UK cinemas.
When the Skyfall announcment was made on the 3rd November 2011 we did ponder whether Daniel Craig would be wearing Persol's or Tom Ford's, or something completely different (I think he would look marvellous in a pair of sparkly Chopards myself!). It looks like our ponderings were proved to be correct!...

While it is difficult to identify them from the very short sequence we see, they do look quite similar in style to the Persol PO2935S.

I finally got round to watching my Blu-Ray copy of Scre4m the other night, having picked it up during the Halloween weekend. The fun and games of Halloween may have been and gone, but there's always time for a scary movie in my book.
I couldn't watch this movie and let this little blog post slip; its part of our passion for fashion eyewear that every time we watch a movie, we just can't ignore a good bit of glasses appreciation, especially when it comes to the Geek...

By James (SelectSpecs) - September 19, 2011 | Celebrity Glasses, Designer Sunglasses, Entertainment | No Comments
One film I'm particularly looking forward to seeing at our local Vue cinema when I get a chance has to be 'Drive' staring Ryan Gosling, Carey Mulligan, Ron Perlman and Christina Hendricks, an action packed car chase heist thriller guaranteed to be a box office smash and up for gaining a SelectSpecs film of the year award!
Synopsis from Apple:
"Ryan Gosling stars as a Los Angeles wheelman for hire, stunt driving for movie productions by day and steering getaway vehicles for armed heists by night. Though...
