The piece: Rivet & Sway Ampersand Glasses [1]

The price: $169

Why we want it: I've been wearing glasses since I was 13 years old, and I'm always on the hunt for another really cool pair that doesn't break the bank. Come on, it's fun to match my frames to my outfit, but when they cost $500, that's more fantasy than reality. But I've found my next pair of frames on Rivet & Sway [2], a new online-only glasses site that lets you try on up to five pairs in the comfort of your own home. I'm personally digging the Ampersand, not only for its nerdy grammar allusion, but also for the modified cat-eye shape that's not too retro. And it comes in four colors to choose from, perfect for matching to my shoes.
