Fancy Box Review – November 2013
Fancy Box is the original subscription box from Fancy.com. Since they introduced this subscription, they have also released lots of different celebrity subscription boxes. I’ve subscribed to all of the boxes since the beginning, so make sure to check out my Fancy reviews to see which boxes are right for you!
The Subscription Box: Fancy Box
The Cost: $39 plus shipping (my shipping cost is $7.95)
The Products: $80+ worth of stylish products.
Ships to: US and Worldwide (shipping varies by country).
Check out all of my Fancy Box reviews!
Each box comes with cards detailing the items included for that month.
I Drew This For You Business Cards – Value $10?
I wish I had drawing skills! We’ll be passing this along to our friend who is much more talented when it comes to sketches!
Suitcase Magazine – Value $15
Monocle Speaker – Value $60
This is my second Monocle Speaker from Fancy, and we’ll be getting one in the Men’s POPSUGAR Holiday Box, but fortunately I think they will make good gifts!
Gold Goddess Cuff – Value $30?
I love gold jewelry, and this piece is about as gold as it gets! It reminds me a of a Wonder Woman cuff, and I kind of love it. We’ll see if I ever wear it or just admire it in my jewelry box!
Slate Coasters – Value $15
Normally I don’t get too excited for coasters, but these slate ones are beautiful and really high-quality. (I was surprised to see they only cost $13).
Verdict: I paid $30 plus $7.95 for this box (I get the original subscription box price since I subscribed from the beginning), and I received about $130 worth of items. I’m going to gift some of the items in this box, but I’m still happy with the value and curation.
What did you think of the November Fancy Box? What items did you get?

I am new to fancy.com. I used a promo code to grab a few things on black Friday but I wish I had bought a few more things. Does anyone know how often they offer promo code? What is the best way to keep up to date on promo codes. I know that maintaining a current list of codes and coupons is nearly impossible. Does fancy send out emails or promote the codes? Also I haven’t been able to find a facebook page for fancy. Just wondering if the 20% and 30% off codes are once a year.
Usually they always have 10% off codes (FOLLOWUP10), and occasionally a few times a year offer more substantial discounts. Hope that helps!
This was my first month of Fancy and I received the same things also. I’m not impressed. The entire box will definitely be gifted. I too thought that these were semi customized. Disappointing.
I love fancy boxes. I subscribe to multiple boxes I love them so much. I’m just curious about the VIP boxes I keep seeing. Does anyone know about these?
This box looks awesome to me. I would have been giddy.
DAMN YOU, FANCY! WHY DID YOUR BOXES HAVE TO GET AWESOME RIGHT AFTER I CANCELED MY SUBSCRIPTION!!
Interesting, This was my first regular Fancy boxes and I thought they were customized to some degree. I received the exact same items you did, however my cards were missing! I really like the coasters and will probably consider gifting much of the rest. Not a bad value though!
Last month’s box was amazing. This one is underwhelming! I only like the coasters. Since this box tends to vary, I hope I get different items…..
