I am so excited! I just got home and there was a large box from Oui, Please waiting for me 🙂 I first read the magazine and fantasized about which of the options I would have liked, and although not all of them jived, I am pretty happy with my loot!! I am not certain if the total comes up to $410 as listed in the insert, but these are items I would not have purchased on my own. I got the following: (1) a Swarovski stretchable bracelet in light grey which is adorable!! I do not think i’d pay $45 for it, but I think it is perfect on the go in the summer!! (2) 2 x David Jourquin fragrance (kind of like deluxe sized spray), which was a bust for me as I thought the fragrance was too overwhelming for me personally, but then again, I am a light floral type of girl. (3) Mason Lejaby undies and matching tank top with crystals (the tank top is not the type you’d wear outside, lol!!). Both are gorgeous and sexy. Unfortunately I am 7 months pregnant, so I think I will put it in my undies drawer for the next few months until I bounce back to my usual body 🙂 I definitely would like to keep them!! (4) Mason Bossier chocolate petals which melted a little bit. I put them in a fridge to harden up and then my husband and I will try them. They do have colorants in them, but I suppose a little bit of it won’t hurt me. I would not buy them regularly just based on the inclusion of colorants. I do like the tin box in which the petals came, and will keep it after the petals are gone for other bonbons. (5) Harem de Sense “silk milk.” Again, I was not terribly happy about the ingredients, but I liked the smell of the moisturizer. I think I will keep it and use it just on my legs or arms. The ingredients are not horrible, I am just spoiled with organic stuff 🙂 (6) Cousu de Fil soap. It’s tiny, but it has decent ingredients in it. I would not pay $10 for it, but I will be more than happy to try it out!! (7) Sencha & Bourbon scarf/coverlet. I love it and it is not something I would buy normally. It is grey-subtly-turning-into-blue in color and large enough that you can use it to tie around your waist and make a skirt coverlet after the beach. It is dainty enough that you can use it as a scarf or a shoulder cover at a dinner. It is super soft and smells so good!! It has my initials by the corner where the S&B logo is located, and the initials are not imposing at all, so if someone wanted to swap it and the recipient did not mind having someone else’s initials next to a logo which is also an abbreviation, I don’t think anyone else would even realize that there are initials there. In any case, I am super happy about the coverlet/scarf; it is very classy, IMHO. A really cool thing about the tags that came with the coverlet is that it contains four pages with printed stuff on it, cute stuff, musings. Fun to read. Well, what I did not realize until I got to the last page is that the pages contain flower seeds!! You have to plant them, and the planting instructions are on the last page. I know what I will be doing tomorrow!! I just wish I knew if those are indoor or outdoor flowers, but I think I will brave them outdoors. Maybe plant three outdoors and one indoors, just in case. So, that’s my box. Even though I would have liked the other piece of jewelry which was listed in the magazine (the chain or a bracelet with natural stone) and the fragrance was a bust, I am still pretty happy with what I got. And can’t wait to try on those undies, haha! Will probably have to wait at least 4-5 months…
