Stylish Surprise from ModCloth - Final Unboxing!

Yes, I really did buy five mystery boxes from ModCloth because they are so awesome and it was such an amazing deal, and I am a sucker for both mystery boxes and amazing deals!

Anyway, surprise!


I don't know if you can tell from the picture, but this is a sweater dress. So cute! Any child of the 90's like myself loves a babydoll. I can wear it all sweet to church or something, and then go retro punk in some black platform boots and an army jacket. This really makes me want to bring back Doc Martens. In a good way! I think I could do it. Who's with me?! No one? Oh.

Anyway, SCORE!

Stylish Surprise from ModCloth #4

Yeah, I'm a sucker for a mystery box. Here's another one from ModCloth.

Surprise!


Tropical holiday anyone? Methinks this will work well.  I could also put a shrug over it and wear it to work. Score! Thanks ModCloth!

We Are Smith Box from JewelMint Review

Recently, JewelMint offered a mystery box from We Are Smith, and I just couldn't help myself! Here's how it went down:

So classy...


OK, I looooooove the pocket knife necklace. This might be my favorite new necklace ever. I wore it out the other night and it made me feel so much safer. ;)

I wasn't 100% sure about the binoculars necklace, but it is super cute and well-crafted. Also, how many times a day does someone ask you to look at something? This is a great gag waiting to happen.


How cool is this? I have a thing about wearing the evil eye, though, so this one is going to Mom, who loves wearing the evil eye! I have lots of Hamsa emblems and jewelry just to protect myself from my own Mom. This will be great for her Mothers' Day gift bag!

Thanks JewelMint! Very happy with this package!!!

Stylish Surprise from ModCloth Unboxing #3

Surprise!


Look, say whatever you want to say about this, but I have been in such a 70's mood lately and I am thrilled about this skirt! So retro! But the awesome thing is that it's not really from the 70's, which was an era of unforgiving fabrics. It's from now, the age of spandex, and it has just enough stretch to make a thing go right. I couldn't find it on ModCloth's site, but similar items seem to retail for abut $60, and I paid $14 including shipping for this, so yeah! Great value. Thanks ModCloth!

Stylish Surprise from ModCloth Unboxing #2

Surprise!


It's an incredibly beautiful, soft, stylish, and surprisingly comfortable pair of heels from ModCloth's Stylish Surprise box. Plus they fit like a glove. I adore them! Real leather, made by Poetic License (who, by the way, win the prize for Most Beautiful Shoebox Ever), these beauties retailed for around $130! Cost of the ModCloth Stylish Surprise Shoe Box: $14. Another EPIC WIN for me this week!

Stylish Surprise from ModCloth Unboxing #1


Surprise! A bright orange dress.

OK, but to be fair, this is one of four Stylish Surprise boxes I bought from ModCloth, and this is the only one that didn't work for me. It's actually beautiful and REALLY well made, and it retailed for around $75 when it was available, so this was a great value for the $14 I spent on the mystery box. Unfortunately, it just isn't flattering on me because it clashes with my skin tone. Into the swap pile with ye! More Stylish Surprise reviews to come!

Sweet Delights Divalicious Sample Box Review

Did you ever wake up one morning and think, "I wish I smelled more Canadian"?  I guess I must have because I recently ordered a Divalicious Sample Box from Sweet Delights.  I'm so glad I did!  The cost was about $33 including shipping to the US.  The box came in yesterday and...

Holy smokes! Look at all this stuff!


Yeah I know that's a terrible picture and you can't tell what all it is, but look at all of it!  


 
Emma's Blush by Sappho Organics
Mineral Lip Color by Key Botanicals in Romance - both are great colors!


A pink grapefruit soap sample
A wickless candle by Scentsy that smells amazing, like pumpkin spice


Rock in Green Eco laundry detergent
Just a Drop Personal Odor Eliminator in Eycalyptus


Skiin Instant Skin Tightener & Line Filler AND Soothing &Smoothing Eye Cream


 Sweet earrings and cute little bee token by Pine Branch Designs


Solid Bora Bora Lotion by Apricot Hills
Rodan + Fields Dermatologists Redefine Night Renewing Serum and Redefine Lip Renewing Serum capsules


Polka Goat Farm Goat Milk Soap in Egyptian Jasmine
Presque Isle Soap Company Apple Pie Handcrafted Soap - smells like the real thing!


Meow's the Time Cuticle Balm in Lemon
Seven Balm Lip Balm


Facial Cleansing Lotion by Terrah Essentials
Cupcake Soap! By Pure Natural Luxuries - my kids were instantly wanting to use this, and it smells amazing



Scential Wellness Vegan Hand Cleanser in Lime
Kootenay Bath Products Shower Gel in Champagne

OMG!  This is so much awesome stuff!  I'm not one of those people who really has the time to go look up the precise retail values of each thing, but I know the value of this stuff is way, way more than the $33 I paid.  The earrings alone would be $30 on JewelMint.  The three soaps alone would have to be at least $30.  And this is all stuff I will use!  This box was definitely an EPIC WIN!

NEW Fancy Mystery Boxes now available!!!

Fancy is now offerring mystery boxes for both men and women in three different sizes - small ($10), medium ($20), and large ($40)!!!  I just ordered one!

Fancy Mystery Box Review

Here we go, my first box review!

I recently got tipped off to the Fancy Mystery Boxes for sale on their site for just $10 plus S&H! Boy was I stoked!  Fancy has a variety of different subscription boxes, including some that are curated by celebrities and other "influencers." They run about $40-$50 a box, thus putting them out of my price range. So this was exciting!

I was doubly stoked when it came in and I saw that there were 5 gifts in the box! For some reason I thought there would only be one. Derp. 

Now onto the goods...


The first thing I saw was this cool box. Here's what was inside...


I've always wanted a vinyl wall decal, but not this one. Not sure what it's fate will be since I can't think of anyone to regift it to. Plus I saw about 38 of them in the swap section on mysubscriptionaddiction.com already. Hmmm...


I'm a terrible photographer, but this is a plastic card holder. Wallet style, with "Be Foolish" lightly inscribed. This feels kind of dollar store-ish, but I put my random gift cards in there and put it to good use right away. 


China Glaze is not the most high-end nail polish in the world, but this smooth chrome color is killer. Love it. I'm going to do it up and then tell my kids I'm a cyborg. 


God I'm a sucker for awesome notebooks. I love these! These were my favorite thing in the whole box. 

So, I don't know how "fancy" this stuff is, but it is definitely a much better value than the $15 I paid for it. Plus it was a lot of fun!

If anyone ever reads this, I would love to know what you got in your Fancy Mystery Box!
