Last week we posted our top 10 movie men in glasses, so in the interests of equality this week we’re bringing you the girls. Finding lovely ladies in lenses was a bit trickier than their male counterparts, but luckily the guys here at Tesco Opticians were more than eager to suggest their top 10 female movie starts in glasses. Have a look and let us know what you think!

1. Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s
Probably one of the most iconic film and fashion images of the past 50 years, who can forget Holly Golightly peering over the top of her oversized shades into the window of Tiffany’s? This style has been recreated by celebrities throughout the years, but no-one pulls it off quite as well as Hepburn.

2. Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada
This stylish movie chronicling a young intern’s adventures at a New York Fashion magazine cast Streep in the role of the formidable Miranda Priestly, widely believed to be based on Vogue’s Anna Wintour. Her character is the epitome of chic and makes these bold rimless frames a must have fashion item.
3. Scarlett Johansson in The Spirit
The first of our vamps, Johansson donned these stunning, bold glasses for her role as XXX in The Spirit. These frames have bags of attitude making them instantly memorable. If you want to make a statement, these are the glasses to do it with – and don’t forget the lippy!

The second vamp in our top ten is Drew Barrymore. Similar to Johansson’s glasses, these bold, designer frames give instant impact, turning Barrymore from laid back cool to femme fatal. Great for peeking over, these glasses get our thumbs up for being striking and sexy.
5. Linda Cordellini in Scooby Doo
One of the most famous bespectacled cartoon characters, Velma from Scooby Doo, was brought to life in the 200X film of the same name. The original ‘geek chic’ for girls, these statement specs are undoubtedly one of the most famous pairs in movie history. The orange polo neck however is optional.

6. Julia Roberts in Notting Hill
These cute shades are definitely befitting of any starlet, although it’s debateable how great a disguise they provide! Small with a eye catching design, these shades are definitely more edgy than glamorous – perfect for a casual day of bumping into people!

7. Marilyn Monroe in How to Marry a Millionaire
The 50’s are making a comeback this season and we couldn’t leave out the one and only Marilyn Monroe working this statement pair. The circular style works with her soft features, making this vintage look bold, sassy and stylish – just like Monroe herself.

The last pair of sunglasses in our list one of a number of pairs Jolie wears throughout the film, but these yellow tinted ones really stand out (or maybe it’s because Brad’s wearing them too?!). Apparently the yellow lens helps glare from the sun, enabling accurate vision – kind of essential when you’re an assassin.
