Kendall's Been Rocking Some Retro Eyewear Lately

by Augusta Statz

When it comes to sporting a pair of frames, nobody does it quite like this girl. She may only wear glasses from time to time, but she looks amazing each and every time she does. Are Kendall Jenner’s retro glasses real, as in prescription? Whether she actually needs to wear this eyewear or no, I don’t mind her rocking them one bit.

She’s been seen wearing glasses on occasion, but not frequently enough to say she definitely needs them in order to see. Of course, she could be wearing contacts the majority of the time. She did post about wearing non-prescription frames on her website once, but back in 2011 she tweeted about needing to wear glasses. Has her eyesight improved since then? Is her vision only slightly impaired? You know, like, not bad enough to warrant wearing them full time? When it comes to this girl and her need for spectacles, the whole thing is kind of a mystery.

The one thing I do know for sure, however, is that she can definitely pull these off. She’s had a thing for vintage eyewear lately, and I wouldn’t be surprised if she brought this ‘70s style back in. What’s old is new again in 2016, after all.

If Jenner had been apart of the cast of That '70s Show this is what her character would have worn. But, they're still pretty cool in 2016, too.

When it comes to throwback eyewear, Jenner really knows what she's doing. So, it's definitely worth taking a style cue from her when selecting which pair of glasses to wear.
