Sutton Stracke isn’t exactly subtle about her love of luxury fashion. On The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, we’ve seen her pick up custom couture from the private home of Domenico Dolce (of Dolce & Gabbana), run her own Hollywood clothing boutique, go diamond shopping with her daughter and take fashion risks like wearing a designer cat sweater on a first date. It’s expensive to be Stracke, but earlier this year, she dished to Page Six about her go-to reading glasses — and you may be surprised to find that they’re just $29 on Amazon.

These bold square-framed reading glasses come in five colors and 13 strengths.
“Best readers ever,” said one fan among nearly 2,000 Amazon five-star reviewers. “I am so glad I found these. The fit great! Beautiful and get tons of compliments. They are way better than I expected. I have already bought three pairs.”
The Bravo star shared that she “can’t scroll through the trolls without my Peepers,” adding that she has so many pairs that she keeps “them all over the house so I don’t get lost!”
If you’re not familiar with the brand, you can grab a pair of Peepers reading glasses in a range of styles and colors on Amazon. But they’re not only for reading — some of the lenses offer protection from the sun’s UVA/UVB light and blue light, like the brand’s To the Max glasses.
You may be more likely to wear your sunglasses outside to protect your eyes, but studies show that blue light can damage retinal cells over time too. Peepers’ lenses filter over 40% of high-energy blue light from digital devices and help reduce eye strain, so whether you’re reading the tabloids on your phone like Stracke or catching up on RHOBH drama involving Stracke’s friend, Kyle Richards, you’re protected.
Another bonus: The lenses have anti-reflective and anti-scratch coating, so you can keep reading with ease wherever you take them. Plus, if you only want the blue light-blocking benefits, the brand makes glasses with no magnification at all.
Stracke isn’t the only fan of Peepers. Oprah has included the brand’s glasses on her annual list of Favorite Things seven times! Her favorite style? These oversized Center Stage glasses.

The oversized specs offer blue light and UVA/UVB protection in 10 colors and six strengths.
“They’re a little chunky and nerdy, but in a stylish, on-point way,” said one five-star Amazon reviewer. “I got these for readers, but I could imagine using these frames for my always-on glasses. They’re super clear and sharp. Love them.”
“I love that these are oversized and they are super cute on,” said another. “Very good, Peepers, very good. I like these better than my Kate Spade glasses that I spent wayyyy too much for.”
