DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Vera Bradley VBTATESUNCLIP Clip On transforms your Vera Bradley Tate prescription eyeglasses into sunglasses in seconds. Part of the brand's Magnetic Sun Clip Collection by McGee Group, this clip-on accessory uses embedded neodymium magnets to attach securely to the matching Tate optical frame—no fumbling with mechanical clips or flip-up hinges.

Instant Sun Protection Without the Hassle

Clip-on sunglasses solve a real problem for prescription eyeglass wearers: you get full UV protection outdoors without carrying a second pair of prescription sunglasses or constantly swapping frames. The magnetic attachment sits flush against your lenses, maintaining a sleek profile that looks like dedicated sunglasses when attached. When you head indoors, the clip detaches in under three seconds and slips into your pocket or purse.

The rectangle shape matches the Tate frame geometry precisely, ensuring full lens coverage without gaps or misalignment. Available in three coordinating patterns—classic Tortoise, vibrant Paradise Coral with tropical florals, and Harbor Paisley with signature Vera Bradley prints—each clip-on is made from durable plastic with gradient tinted lenses that reduce glare while protecting your eyes from harmful UV rays.

Designed for Vera Bradley Fans

This clip-on is prescription-ready when paired with the Vera Bradley Tate optical frame (sold separately). The full-rim design provides stability, and the single bridge construction ensures the magnetic attachment points align correctly. Vera Bradley eyewear is manufactured by McGee Group with attention to detail, utilizing European components and quality materials. A portion of proceeds from Vera Bradley eyewear sales supports the Vera Bradley Foundation for breast cancer research.

The VBTATESUNCLIP offers an affordable alternative to purchasing separate prescription sunglasses—especially valuable if you need progressive lenses or high-index materials. Keep one clip in your car, another in your bag, and you're always prepared for bright sunlight.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this clip-on work with any eyeglasses or only Vera Bradley Tate frames?

The VBTATESUNCLIP is specifically designed to attach magnetically to the Vera Bradley Tate optical frame. The magnets are embedded in precise locations on both the frame and clip-on to ensure proper alignment and secure attachment. It will not fit other eyeglass frames, even other Vera Bradley models, due to the custom magnetic positioning and rectangle lens shape matching.

How do magnetic clip-on sunglasses attach and stay secure?

Magnetic clip-ons use high-strength neodymium magnets embedded in the frame and clip-on at strategic points along the bridge and outer edges. The magnetic force is strong enough to withstand wind and normal movement while remaining easy to remove. The magnets sit flush within the frame material, so they're invisible when the clip is removed.

Do these clip-on sunglasses provide UV protection?

Yes, the VBTATESUNCLIP lenses are designed to protect your eyes from harmful UV rays. Quality clip-on sunglasses offer UV protection comparable to regular sunglasses, shielding your eyes from both UVA and UVB radiation when worn outdoors.

Can I get prescription lenses in the clip-on itself?

No, the VBTATESUNCLIP is a non-prescription sunglass clip designed to attach over your existing prescription eyeglasses. You would add prescription lenses to the Vera Bradley Tate optical frame (the base frame), and then attach this clip-on when you need sun protection. This system is more affordable than purchasing separate prescription sunglasses.

What are the benefits of clip-on sunglasses versus prescription sunglasses?

Clip-ons are significantly less expensive than prescription sunglasses, eliminate the need to carry multiple pairs of glasses, and allow instant transitions between indoor and outdoor settings. They're easy to store in a pocket or purse, and you can keep multiple clip-ons in different locations (car, office, bag) without the investment of multiple prescription pairs.

What size is the VBTATESUNCLIP and will it fit my face?

The VBTATESUNCLIP has a lens width of 54mm, bridge width of 18mm, and no temple length (since it clips onto your existing frame). The rectangle shape is designed to balance rounded facial features. The clip-on matches the dimensions of the Vera Bradley Tate optical frame exactly, so if the Tate frame fits you well, the clip-on will provide proper coverage.

Vera Bradley VBTATESUNCLIP vs VBHAVENSUNCLIP: Choosing Your Magnetic Clip-On

Both the VBTATESUNCLIP and VBHAVENSUNCLIP are part of Vera Bradley's innovative Magnetic Sun Clip Collection, manufactured by McGee Group. They share the same core technology—embedded neodymium magnets for secure, instant attachment—and the same affordable price of $41.21. The key difference lies in which optical frame they're designed to fit.

The VBTATESUNCLIP is engineered specifically for the Vera Bradley Tate optical frame, which features a classic rectangle shape. Rectangle frames are particularly flattering for those with rounded facial features, as they add definition and balance. The Tate's full-rim construction provides a traditional, versatile look that works in professional and casual settings. If you prefer a timeless, structured aesthetic, the Tate frame with its matching clip-on is the better choice.

The VBHAVENSUNCLIP pairs with the Haven optical frame, which offers a different silhouette within the collection. According to McGee Group, the Magnetic Sun Clip Collection includes "classic rounded rectangles, slightly oversized squares, or semi-rimless rounds," giving customers options based on their style preferences and face shape.

Both clip-ons are available in Vera Bradley's signature patterns—including Tortoise, Paradise Coral, and Harbor Paisley—so you can coordinate your eyewear with your favorite Vera Bradley accessories. Each provides UV protection and the same magnetic convenience that eliminates the need for separate prescription sunglasses.

Our recommendation: Choose based on which optical frame shape suits your face and style. The VBTATESUNCLIP with the Tate rectangle frame is ideal for those who want a classic, professional look with the versatility to balance round or oval faces. Visit our Vera Bradley collection to explore both options and find your perfect match.
