Lupita Nyong'o, Robert Downey Jr. Wear Glasses at Golden Globes — Robert Downey Jr - P 2015

Sure, the Globes featured dazzling jewels and statement-making accessories, but there was another fashion item that Hollywood seemed to favor on Sunday evening: reading glasses.

Robert Downey Jr. was a spectacle in his purple Paul Smith “Shawburry” spectacles, reminiscent of Bono‘s signature shades. Along with the Iron Man 3 actor’s eyewear, Patricia Arquette wore a pair of violet oval specs while accepting her Best Supporting Actress award for Boyhood.

Lupita Nyong’o also went for the 20/20 experience, wearing a pair of chic round frames that have already earned its own Twitter account, @LupitaGlasses, naturally. Looks like we may have just found next season’s “it” item.
