Style Tip #5

Claudia Cardinale in really silly goggles.
Goggles, so-called "safety glasses," and other kinds of protective eyewear are only to shield your vision from a harmful work environment. They are NOT for casual, semi-formal, or formal wear.
Don't do the Samba in goggles.
Do NOT Wear goggles:
1.) on a first date.
2.) to a spouse's funeral.
3.) to the Academy Awards ceremony.
4.) in church.
5.) to court.
6.) when you're not working on something hazardous.
7.) in bed.
8.) when you're sitting for a portrait painting.
9.) unless you still live in the 1970s.
Goggle-style glasses from the 1970s.
If you Google "goggles," they might ask you if you really mean "Google."
Wow!
See how much better you can look without goggles?

Her film work includes South Pacific (1958), In Love and War (1958), A Girl Named Tamiko (1962), and the really awful The Last Time I Saw Archie (1961). She appeared on four episodes of the 1966 television series I Spy and was married to I Spy star Robert Culp for a few years. She has worked on numerous TV shows, including Knot's Landing, Fantasy Island, and St. Elsewhere.
