Brooke Shields is a vision — especially in these chic readers
We've been eyeing the star's fab glasses, and her favorite brand is not as pricey as you'd think.
Glasses wearers unite! For a time, it felt totally taboo to see a star out and about with corrective lenses. But now? More and more celebs are proving there's nothing wrong with wearing specs. In fact, they look pretty cool and stylish in them! One such A-lister is actress Brooke Shields. Whether she's wearing tinted aviators with a metal rim or a heavy plastic frame, Shields always looks stunning in her eyeglasses.
I recently fell in love with a translucent pink pair that I spied her wearing on Instagram and just had to find them for myself. Turns out, they're actually readers! Now, if you're like me, you immediately think of those decidedly-not stylish spectacles on the swivel rack in the back of the drugstore by the pharmacy. These are not those. Instead, Shields's Caddis frames are quite chic.
More than 1,000 shoppers have rated these feminine frames, giving them 4.7 out of 5 stars. They're available as both readers and progressive readers, and shoppers can choose the frame color, the lens power, the lens type and the frame size. Yes, a completely custom pair of glasses for just over $100. That's a good deal!
Caddis has been around since 2016, on a mission to create corrective lenses that aren't, well, ugly. They embrace aging as a thing of beauty, and all their frame reflect that. They started out with just readers, but now they also offer sunglasses and prescription eyeglasses. In total, there are more than 50 styles to choose from.
Given how attractive and well-designed Caddis's products are, it shouldn't be surprising that Shields isn't the brand's only famous fan. Gwyneth Paltrow, Juliette Lewis, Michelle Pfeiffer and Katie Couric are among the other stars who've been spotted wearing their glasses. Shop more celeb-loved Caddis styles below.
Arguably one of Caddis's most popular styles, this classic plastic style has been worn by Gwyneth Paltrow, Michelle Pfeiffer and Kristen Wiig. It's available in seven frame colors, and shoppers can choose from readers, prescription eyeglasses, progressive glasses and even polarized sunglasses.
"Very sturdy and perfect size for my small face," raved one fan who loves this style that's also been worn by Keri Russell. These frames are available in both medium and narrow sizes in six colors, including tortoise, black, green and clear.
Not sure you want thick, heavy frames weighing you down? Consider this sleek metal pick that actress Olivia Wilde has worn. They're a little pricier than the acetate styles, but shoppers say they're a worthy investment.
"Lightweight, like feather lightweight," one customer swooned. "Gorgeous glasses!" another added.
If you saw the movie The Lost City, then chances are you spotted Sandra Bullock wearing these chunky specs. They're also a fave of MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle, who owns them in the snazzy red color.
Carrie Bradshaw, aka Sarah Jessica Parker, wore this frame in season two of And Just Like That. Real people also rave about this style, giving it 4.8 out of 5 stars on the Caddis website. "These glasses are so light on the face that it is easy to forget you are wearing them. Love the comfort and style," one fan wrote.
