We caught up with her for an eyewear style update:

Dana, which glasses are currently your favourite?

I’m a big fan of the Presentation by VOOY – whether they’re in glasses or sunglasses form, the shape is a true classic that always looks cool and stylish. And then for a bit more drama, I just ordered the Prada PR 24XS.

How can you make sure your glasses and personal style go well together?

Even when it comes to glasses, I believe that you should simply wear what you like. Because that automatically makes it your own style. But if you’re not sure, you can always go for a classic square or round model – they always fit and are not quite as conspicuous as a cat-eye, for example.

How many pairs of glasses do you own? And how do you choose the right ones in the morning?

Oh, I’d have to count them myself first. But there are definitely quite a few. Basically, I always choose my glasses according to my feelings and mood. But of course, I also pay attention to the direction I want my outfit to take – glasses can be decisive here. Do I want to look casual and cool? Then I like to opt for the Ray Ban Round Metal. Do I want something more striking and dramatic? Then I like to go for a larger model in black, by Fendi for example.

And what did your very first pair of glasses look like?

Actually, it was only two or three years ago. Unfortunately, my eyes got a little worse from looking at my mobile phone or laptop all the time. But at least I had a new, cool accessory. My first pair of glasses was a light grey round model.

For you, is there one person who has perfected wearing glasses?

Have you seen the series New Girl? The series character Jess (played by Zooey Deschanel) is for me the coolest glasses wearer ever. Her glasses are simply part of her, and they underline her character and style perfectly.
