I have worn glasses for a long time. I had lasik at one point and it lasted all of three years before I started to notice my vision changing again. So, a few years ago, I went and picked up a new pair of spectacles. Earlier this year, I knew I was due for a check up, but I had been putting it off until recently. You see, I have three children in glasses and contacts now. To say this is a strain on our family financially is an understatement. Being the momma, my need for new glasses was going to have to wait.

Then I saw a giveaway Jenny was running on her blog about this online eyewear company called Rivet & Sway. I was fascinated. I have never ordered anything as important as glasses online, but I did trust the experience from what Jenny described. Also, I started communicating with Rivet & Sway on Facebook and Twitter and I was sold with how professional and engaged they were. A few weeks later, I found out I had won the giveaway for a pair of glasses. This is by far one of the biggest blessings I have received this year.

My experience with Rivet & Sway has been awesome. I selected my three pair of glasses to try on at home they came in the best packaging ever! The designer in me could not get over the clever , simple design. I loved everything about the boxes the spectacles were packaged in down to the enclosures explaining the process.

I was having a time choosing between two pair: Rizzo and Meet Cute. So, I mentioned this on FB or Twitter and I was told to contact their stylist, Ritzy and she would offer some suggestions. Less than 24 hours later, I received a response and knew the glasses I was going to select. Rizzo, baby! These glasses look amazing in person and I just received an email from the CEO, John telling me my glasses are on the way. To say I am thrilled is an understatement.

Seriously, people, I have never been more excited about a purchase. Every single step of the way, the customer service was top notch. I am not being compensated and have not been asked to write this post by any of the Rivet & Sway team. I just felt compelled to share one of the best customer experiences I have had in a really long time. When you treat people right and make them feel taken care of, your customers will sing your praises. And, as a person who would not have trusted something as important as my vision to an online company, I can say they convinced me they know how to do this right. If you are planning to purchase new glasses and you want something different and insanely stylish, give Rivet & Sway a try. You will be glad you did!
