I like when Naga Munchetty on BBC Breakfast wears her glasses. She looks just as lovely with or without and isn't vain enough to use them to promote her intelligence.

Louis Theroux - I've been told I look like him and it's a massive compliment because he's a fine fine man.

Kate Silverton, the newsreader. Her frame really suits her face shape.

Elton John always had the most fabulous glasses . I try to follow his lead but when Healthcall came to my house to sort my eyes the other week the most jazzy were purple so I got those ... I'm Elton in training

Yes Diane Keaton; she wears them most of the time and looks fabulous; you can't pick someone who doesn't normally wear them............what about Clark Kent!

Buddy Holly - he always rocked his glasses and it was totally a part of his image.

I suppose Trevor McDonald, despite all the adversity when he began his career he has risen to be top of his game and an amazing documentary maker

Kate Silverton, the news reader. She rarely wears contact lenses as she looks so good in glasses.
