You, Your VSP Vision Plan & bebe style for Fall

Hello Fabulous readers. This post is written on behalf of my sponsor, VSP.  This is a vision plan I have used as a near-sighted freelancer for many years.  If you work in the creative industries or work as a consultant, you probably already know about VSP.

I come from a family used to wearing thick glasses.  As a child, my dorky eyewear was a source of nerdy embarrassment.  In high school I graduated to contact lenses.  I never got out of my head that glasses were a geeky look, but they were still a necessity. (This is me at 13 years old in horrible frames and hair).

After going to college and entering the fashion industry, paying for health care in New York as a single worker in a creative industry was rough.  Trying to upgrade my eyeglasses for a professional, fashion forward look was even tougher.  “Designer” frames were exorbitant, you had to make sure your prescription was up to date and you still had to pay for contact lens fittings and the lenses themselves.

As a non-profit vision care company getting a VSP plan was definitely helpful to me.  Their plans started at about $17/month.  Their plans covered annual eye exams with low co-payments and a lot of convenient optometrists near wherever my latest office was.  They have allowances for glasses or contact lenses.  I wish I knew then, but happy to know now that my new plan provided by them gives me access to all sorts of designer frames like the stylish bebe collection above. 

Now, with all of the gorgeous options you have to frame your face, your glasses are as much a part of your fall wardrobe as much as anything else.   Go for a new accent color, a new silhouette or maybe a new finish. 

Once you have your smart new eyewear look, coordinate it with an entire outfit and then win it all! Yes, enter VSP’s Pin It to Win It and you could receive a year’s worth of VSP coverage and a new bebe ensemble for fall.  You don’t need glasses to see how sweet that is…

Thanks for putting me onto VSP! I wear contacts daily but definitely need to find a great pair (read; fashionable) pair of glasses to switch it up.

I don't really have vision problems, but I'll tell my friends and family who wear glasses and contacts about VSP. Thanks for the intel.

I am on the books to get new glasses this weekend. First new pair in almost 6 years! I might have to get those frames shown above

BUT! You looked super cute in your dorky glasses. I am always on the huny for big frames. You are giving me 80's realness here. In regards tot he insurance, I wish I knew about this when I was in NYC.

I ware contacts most of the time but stay up on
my frame game! I as well am a VSP member and tend to have money left each
year on my flex account which I use for glasses! Think this year I might
have to take a look at the pink and black frame that you featured!!

Oh, I've worn glasses since I was 2 and I'm VERY far-sighted so I know all about those thick ugly frames back in grade school. Only in the last ten years have I learned to appreciate glasses and see how many cute and stylish frames are out there. Thank for sharing the contest, it sounds like something I'd be up for!

I like the idea of VSP direct. I go back and forth between my glasses and contact lenses depending on the look I want to achieve for the day. Good job with the outfit posts.
