Social Bliss The Style Box Subscription Review – Nov 2014

That bracelet is flat out hideous

I subscribed to SocialBliss for 3 months, and I have a pile of stuff I won’t use. I don’t wear gold tone, but every piece of jewelry was gold. And I seriously don’t get the fringe on the purse this month.

glad I cancelled

I remember wearing necklaces like that as a belt in the late 70’s. You’d wrap it low over a long tunic type blouse.

Thank GOD I cancelled!!

Not that it will make much difference, but I felt like I should chime in. I work in the lapidary/jewelry field and those Carnelian rings have a retail value closer to $2.50. :-\

Just an FYI for folks who think the palette is by MAKE. It’s actually by Mark, as in Avon. Not at all the same in terms of retail value for what it’s worth. It seems like someone associated with SB also sells Avon since they’ve sent several of their products this year. Birchbox did include a MAKE shadow palette in their LE box though. That box is worth every penny of the $99 price. For the cost of 2 SB boxes you could snag the BB holiday box and actually get legit value and quality.

My husband modeled it would n his upper arm for me. Hilarious.

I do not recall anything like that bracelet in the 70’s.

It’s always interesting reading the reviews. I would never had guess that the fringe piece is a bracelet.

The necklace is kind of cool. However, I’d totally understand if you cancelled. This doesn’t seem like a must-keep kind of box.

The fringe on the bag is supposed to be a “bracelet” that you wear while holding the bag. Seems a little silly, but at least it is removable!

As much as I hated to do it, this was the end of my relationship with Social Bliss. I loved it at first but each month it’s steadily gone down hill for me. Looks like I’ll be trading all of the contents besides the lip pallet which is the only thing I liked.

With the fringe removed, I like the bag more than the one PS sent, which is a more fair comparison than the NG bag. The necklace is versatile, and I like that the ring is made from a natural material. The lip pallet is great and not something we see much of in subs. I don’t like the bracelet, but big chains were a thing in the 70s, so it sort of fits.

It’s probably my favourite SB box so far, though I don’t like it enough to subscribe.

I have the Nina Garcia fringe bag in Mink and I’d love to swap for the T + J tassel necklace if anyone is interested!

The necklace is beautiful! The purse is just … weird. That fringe attachment is bizarre and I would definitely make the NGQ comparison on the purses. My first thought on seeing that bracelet was that it was picked up at some adult store as a bondage accessory.

I actually really liked this box! But then again, I like things that are “different!” The past three months of Social Bliss have been lackluster, but I think they really redeemed themselves with this box. It’s certainly not for everyone, though. They don’t adhere to the middle-of-the road, conservative style most people seem to like.

Yeah, even if I had money to burn, this box would be cancelled! Ugh.

The bag styling took me forever to figure out. I sent you an email, Liz, with a drawing… LOL

This whole box just looks terrible anymore, they used to have cute things. If I had gotten this box I’d be angry, I don’t like anything in it.

Cancel!

OK, that bracelet — what the what?
