Beauty Box 5

I have always dreaded buying new glasses. You spend a million years trying on a ton of frames just to fall in love with the most expensive pair in the store (which is completely outside your budget) and be relegated to those awkward, cheap knockoffs in the corner. Well not anymore! Rivet & Sway bring the stylish frames you desire directly to your doorstep at a price that will completely blow your mind!

What is Rivet & Sway?

Rivet & Sway is an online eyewear company dedicated to helping women feel beautiful and confident in their glasses. “Our goal is to take women from liking to LOVING their relationship with glasses and how they shop for them.” They felt that women were getting the short end of the stick when it came to eyewear selection and set out the change that with, “a collection exclusively created for women and an experience to rival the ease and convenience of shopping for shoes or handbags.” In my opinion, the have done just that! The frames they offer are smart, attractive and trendy and the new collection they just released is completely stellar!

So how does Rivet & Sway work?

All you do is long onto their website and pick out your favorite 3 eyeglass frames; if you need a little advice, you can fill out a short quiz and send in your picture. Ritzy, the Rivet & Sway Personal Stylist will get back to you ASAP with recommendations for your specific face shape, etc. Once you have decided on the three frames you’d like to try on, Rivet & Sway packs them up and sends them your way…free of charge and faster than you can say “I want new glasses!” The glasses come in the cutest packaging (pictured below) and you have three days to try them on and send them back (again free of charge).

I absolutely LOVED that I could try my glasses on at home! All of the frames come with clear lenses so I was able to put them on with my contacts in and wear each pair for enough time that I really started to like one of the pairs I’d ordered over the other two. If you’re having trouble deciding once your “try-on” pairs have arrived, you can send a photo to Ritzy and she’ll be happy to give you a recommendation. No other eyewear company that I know of does anything like this; online or in-store! It’s soooo easy!!! Once you send back the three “try-on” pairs you simply log onto the Rivet & Sway website, enter in your prescription information and order your glasses.

What else makes Rivet & Sway a stand-out?

Every pair of glasses that Rivet & Sway offers is only $199 regardless of your prescription and every pair comes with ultra-thin Rx lenses, anti-glare and UV-blocking coatings and free express shipping. They’ll even upgrade you from their standard 1.60 lenses to the thinner and lighter 1.67 lenses for free if your Rx calls for it!

So you want to know which pair I decided on? Stay tuned, I’ll be posting images soon along with my interview with one of the Rivet & Sway founders! Oh…and don’t forget to look for a little something special from Rivet & Sway in your Beauty Box 5!

Peace, Love & Glasses,
