Kayoko Okubo starts wearing glasses.

Kayoko Okubo, a TV personality who has become more attractive as she ages, is now a favorite of many people. The popular TV personality, however, has not been able to resist the aging process and bought a pair of reading glasses at "Globespecs" a few years ago. This connection led to a conversation between Ms. Okubo and Tetsuya Okada, the store's famous manager. Mr. Okubo seems to be getting serious about wearing glasses. And really, the glasses look good on him.

Intellectual erotic secretary glasses.

Speaking of glasses, your partner is Yasuko Mitsuura, right?

Okubo:Mr. Mitsuura has always been a glasses character, so I had no choice but to wear glasses beside him.

Okada:Don't you also wear sunglasses?

Okubo:Sunglasses are another hurdle to overcome. Sunglasses have an image of being worn by a delinquent or a person who is uptight, and it is difficult to suddenly wear sunglasses after living for 50 years without wearing them. Are there any sunglasses for beginners?

Okada:There is one, a low-hurdle one. Shall we look at it later?

Today, I would like to select the next pair of glasses for Mr. Okubo.

Okubo:Yeah, I don't know. Something like an intellectual but erotic secretary.

Okada:We have a little something like that for you today (laughs). Let's take a quick look.

Okubo:I'm sorry if I've left a beautiful woman out.

I will not be afraid to let you have it all (laughs). Let's start with the first one.

Okubo:Well then, I'll just have some right away. (Try it on.) How do you like it?

Okada:It still looks good on you. It's nice.

AHLEM "Palais Garnier" ¥82,500

It certainly looks great on you. It fits in well.

Okubo:I like this kind of sassiness. I think men might be more inclined to "conquer" a person who says, "I have my own way.

Okada:It's hard to say what to reply, though (smiles). Here is the next one.

Okubo:Is this it? I don't think it suits you very well.

Okada:It suits you.

Okubo:What? Isn't it getting a little interesting? Are you okay? Are you laughing?

Anne & Valentin "MECABOOM" ¥56,100

I'm very comfortable with it, really.

Okubo:I think I have a bit of a rustic face. I also have a phobia of being teased.

Okada:I think this one would look good, too.

Okubo:Purple? But maybe cute.

Anne & Valentin "BALKA" ¥70,400

Okada:It suits you.

Okubo:Oh my, they look good on me. They don't look that sharp, but simply like a pair of glasses chosen by a person with good taste. Or rather, Mr. Okada's selection is amazing.

Okada:I knew it would look good even before I put it on.

Okubo:That's what I'm talking about, Uncle Ike.

Okada:I think it's totally fine to use bifocals for everyday use.

Okubo:I would like to go to Ogi-san's (Ogiyahagi) home party. I'm sure he'll say, "That's nice, Mr. Okubo.

Okada:They are strong when viewed alone, but when worn by others, they don't look so flashy.

Okubo:They may indeed look good on you. How do you know which glasses suit me in the first place?

Okada:I am already a professional there.

Okubo:That's right (laughs). But the glasses magic is amazing.

Surprisingly, everything looks good on you, doesn't it?

Okubo:I wonder if I have a glasses face. When did this happen?

Which one suits you best, Okada-san?

Okada:Is it the last purple frame you wore?

Is this because you liked the balance with the face or something like that?

Okada:There's that, too, and although the color looks gaudy at first glance, when you put it on your face, it blended in very well.

Okubo:Does that mean you're thinking about skin color or something like that?

Okada:It's like skin, hair color, etc.

Okubo:So when your hair turns darker, would you prefer a slightly different color again?

Okada:Yes, it would be. Which one did you prefer, Mr. Okubo?

Okubo:I liked the first gold-rimmed one I put on because it seemed to show many sides of me, with an intelligence, but also a gap and a strong spirit. But I also like the purple ones a lot. Even if your clothes are simple, if you wear one of these, you look stylish. I don't feel like I'm trying too hard to be that uptight. I'm glad to see that such a catchy design is still viable after 50.

Conversely, are there things that didn't suit you when you were younger but look good on you now that you are older?

Okada:I think that is true. So I would like to encourage everyone to try things that they gave up on in the past because they didn't suit them.
