In her quest for finding her own fashion identity and staying different, Heart Evangelista turns to big and loud eyewear from Vision Express—not only to pump up her looks, but also to advocate for the eye care that she knows people deserve.
From aviators, cat-eyes, geometrics, and round John Lennon-esque frames, eyewear is this age’s finishing touch to kick one’s #OOTD up a notch.
Take it from the Filipino style darling Heart Evangelista who is known to make the streets of Paris, Milan, and Manila into her everyday runway. She dons versatile and peculiar specs in an effort to further articulate her personal take on fashion trends.
Just recently, the beloved fashionista teamed up with Vision Express, whose vision is centered around personal approaches to eye care, for a summer campaign video that highlights making bold statements with eyewear.
“There are just certain eyewears that I like to identify myself with. Just being playful with my outfit,” Heart shares in the video. “It gives you so much variety with your looks instantly. It’s like changing costumes, playing different characters. It’s part of the story, and you can never have too many.”
To give you a better visual, here are five examples of Heart Evangelista’s eyewear styles:

A collector of eyewear since her teenage years, Heart recalls a memory of her first pair. “My mom made sure that I had heart-shaped glasses, which they have now at YSL. But for some reason, I would always wear it upside down.” It was a mark of what is to come—a “sign of uniqueness” as the style star describes.
Today, with the range of choices that the eyewear industry offers, the rage for standing out in the crowd shows no sign of dimming down. Vision Express alone presents a mix of designer styles to nail a look regardless of the occasion—be it casual for a summer getaway, cute for a Sunday brunch, or edgy power-dressing for work. Among the brands it carries are Ray Ban, Gucci, Balenciaga, Yves Saint Laurent, Bottega Veneta, and Prada.
In the video shot by BJ Pascual, Heart encourages everyone to not be afraid of staying different, and rather showcase their style through eyecare and eyewear. “You only have one pair,” she concludes.
In the Philippines, Vision Express has over 100 branches nationwide. Visit Vision Express’ website for more information. For updates, follow them on Instagram.
