Ever since the sixth grade I have needed glasses. As a kid I hid my glasses in my backpack and only pulled them out when absolutely necessary counting down the days until my parents let me get contacts. Once I got contacts I forgot about glasses, dismissing them as not very stylish and swore to never wear them again. Then I became a mom and my tired eyes often rebelled against my contacts and then the final straw was Graves Disease and wearing contacts was out of the question. When faced with the reality of possibly never wearing contacts again I had to take long hard look at my glasses options and make peace with wearing them. I was thrilled to see that my optometrist carried a wide variety of stylish glasses, many of which are made by fashion brands I know and love like Nine West.
I have been fortunate to have VSP Direct vision insurance in the past and they have made it possible for me to not only have stylish eyeglasses but some fabulous prescription sunglasses as well. The cost to have both of those without insurance is enough to take your breath away! My husband switched jobs last Fall and I rushed to use my VSP Direct benefits before they were gone and this year I have not yet been to see how much it will cost for new glasses. When I told my optometrist who my new insurance was they said that’s too bad VSP covers more, not what I wanted to hear.

VSP Direct & Nine West “Style with a Vision” Pinterest sweepstakes is goin on right now and it has gotten me excited to go pick out some new glasses next month! I currently wear a completely rimless pair that all but disappears, I think I need a new pair that make a bold statement like these Nine West glasses I paired with this chic outfit!
I was selected for this opportunity as a member of Clever Girls Collective and the content and opinions expressed here are all my own.
My Mom loves rimless glasses. That’s cool that they are hosting a Pinterest contest.
We’ve had VSP for a few years now and they’ve been great. I don’t wear glasses, but my wife does and it’s come in very handy when it’s time to get new ones.
VSP sounds like a good eye vision benefit to have when needing glasses. I like the rimless glasses and like you have had to wear glasses since the 6th grade. I would love to get a new pair of glasses. Have to check out the Pinterest contest.
I have something of a glasses addiction – I own, like, six styles of frames, I used to have VSP and it was the best, most generous vision coverage I’ve ever had. It’s not as widely available (through employers at least) where I live now.
Those are nice! I love that glasses are considered a fashion item these days, so much better than the few terrible styles I had to choose from when I was a kid.
Seems like most people really enjoy VSP, I will have to check them out
im looking for a new pair,these look really nice
I’ve heard a lot about VSP lately… these must be good glasses and mine are currently broken so I might have to check these out….
I used to hide my glasses at school, too!! These do look cute, though.
I still remember the day that I got my glasses in the fourth grade! I couldn’t believe how good I could see. All the way home I kept telling my mom how different the trees looked! I love the glasses that you paired with the outfit and I hope that you get them!
Those glasses definitely look like my daughters style. She lives in CA and always loves to look a little different! Very chic!
I have had VSP at from my job for many years. I had Lasik surgery several years ago so I don’t really use it at the moment but I can certainly say they do have good benefits.
