Classic Or Dud:The Tina Fey Look

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

this isn't a thread about tina fey per se, i've just been noticing the look more for some reason. is it more prevalent now or has it been like that for a while? what do you call it? the glasses. the hair. you know. it's sassy. it's now. it has a sense of humour and smarts to spare. or at least that's what i think this look is saying. has there been a thread on this? if you look like tina fey please do not be alarmed. she's cute! my start page is earthlink.net and recently they got rid of their welcoming 70's flight attendant and replaced her with:

Yow, I wanna switch to Earthlink now!

My wife was rockin' the Tina Fey glasses before Tina Fey was out of high school.

That earthlink creature looks like a man in Tina Fey drag.

I just figured it out -- some asshole somewhere is about to make an advertising pitch to ConHugeCo with this as the 'quirkyalone' look.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 13 February 2004 17:40 (twenty-one years ago)

if she doesn't have the scar i ain't buying it.

― Chris V (Chris V), Friday, 13 February 2004 17:41 (twenty-one years ago)

I personally find "IQ-boosting" glasses to be pretty pretentious, but that's just my bias as a 24-year user of soft contacts. The Tina Fey look is not a good one, IMO. The glasses seem to scream, "I'm intelligent!"

― Baked Bean Teeth (Baked Bean Teeth), Friday, 13 February 2004 17:49 (twenty-one years ago)

no, they scream "I'm HOTTTTT!"

― Matos W.K. (M Matos), Friday, 13 February 2004 17:55 (twenty-one years ago)

"I'm HOTTTTT! and I know Ethan Hawke!"

Matos, if anything needed to be forgiven, now all would be forgiven. As it is you're Dwight D. Eisenhower because you're ON THE MONEY.

Boys don't make passes at girls that wear glasses.

It looks like Lisa Loeb has had a masectomy.

― andy, Friday, 13 February 2004 18:41 (twenty-one years ago)

They instead make passes at girls who have asses.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 13 February 2004 18:41 (twenty-one years ago)

asses + glasses = passes

― Begs2Differ (Begs2Differ), Friday, 13 February 2004 18:49 (twenty-one years ago)

what about girls who have gas?

― My Huckleberry Friend (Horace Mann), Friday, 13 February 2004 18:50 (twenty-one years ago)

know any that don't?

― Begs2Differ (Begs2Differ), Friday, 13 February 2004 18:51 (twenty-one years ago)

I dated this girl who looked like Kylie Minogue, complete w/big teeth, and she wore Tina Fey glasses. Needless to say I was content for those few months until she moved to NYC.

I hate this look, though the picture Kingfish linked to is purdy nice.

I wear glasses and I was hot BEFORE Tina Fey. If anything, she's biting my style even as we speak.

So, basically the look in question is skinny girl with glasses? I'm 1 for 2 then, I guess.

tina looks a bit too angular & sharp-featured w/o the glasses.

― m coleman (lovebug starski), Saturday, 18 November 2006 15:02 (nineteen years ago)

she's not that good looking but certainly passable - she seems like someone who you could actually know in your real life. in other words, she's fairly ordinary, and that accessibility is part of the appeal to some guys. Lisa Loeb pwns her from here to eternity and back again tho if we're talking the geeky white gal look, and even she isn't all that.
i think if you're gonna have fantasy drools over some celeb/movie star type, go for the gold, worship Claudia Cardinale or someone like that.

It's the look that says, "I need to see, so here's my glasses. Long hair is for 12 year old girls, so hear is my age-appropriate haircut."

― Bobby Ganush (Uri Frendimein), Saturday, 18 November 2006 16:10 (nineteen years ago)

It's a good look. I don't know who Tina Fey is.

I am a woman with glasses and hair and I approve this message.

she definitely looks better with longer hair, tho i guess there are some people who would like this look better:

I broke my glasses in a bicycle accident four months after getting them. I like how I look either way, but the drawback is now I cannot seeee. Very well.

the "hipster-hepcat girl" look now just fills me with sadness and self-loathing every time i witness it due to so many rejections and bothersome cockteasing from girls who have employed it.

― Viceroy, Friday, 10 August 2007 21:17 (eighteen years ago)

Tina Fey, something in her eyes makes me feel she would definitely give me the stinkeye if we met, no matter how wide a variety of delicious beverages I offered. Maybe this isn't true.

― Abbott, Friday, 10 August 2007 21:29 (eighteen years ago)

It is amazing how much a pair of little black glasses can do for some girls. Would that there were an analogous miracle accessory for guys.
