PopSugar Winter Luxury Box

PopSugar releases a Luxury box a few times a year and this time I snagged one!  They sell out within hours and cost $100, but promise over $300 of Must Have Luxury items.  I always love to see whats in these boxes and after the awesome Fall box, I knew I wanted to order the Winter box.  Luckily, my husband bought it for me for Christmas, and I LOVE all the items!  The information card tells us that these items are a great way to help us start out 2014 with all the items you never knew you needed.  

All the Goodies!

Must Have Home:  Lunares Cheese Paddle with Knife ($59)
This cheese paddle and knife set is handmade from non tarnish silver, and a sleek way to serve your appetizers.  This is a cool item I never knew I needed.  It is heavy and the quality is great, I will definitely use it this holiday season, and I love the clever!

Must Have Beauty:  Tokyomilk by Margot Elena Body Souffle in Wisdom ($40)
Treat yourself well with TokyoMilk Dark's body soufflé, the lotion infuses botanical extracts, shea butter and avocado oils for a rich formula that smells and feels amazing.  OMG this lotion weighs 3 pounds easily!  The case is so fancy and it smells amazing.  I received the scent Wisdom which has notes of water lilly, woods, moss, walnut and winter musk.  I haven't tried it just yet, but when I do I will feel very fancy!  I love beauty products.

Must Have Home:  Graphic Image 2014 Datebook ($70)
The search for the perfect planner stops right here!  Seriously, anyone that knows me know I love planners.  I buy 2 a year from Target just so I can rewrite everything, no iPhone calendar for this girl.  I have never had such a nice planner!  It is very heavy, the metallic leather is gorgeous.  There are also lots of added maps and helpful date and note pages included in this 224 page planner.  I am in love ;)

Must Have Food:  Fatty Sundays Peppermint Crunch Dark Chocolate Covered Pretzels ($6.95)
Fatty Sundays Peppermint sticks are covered in dark chocolate and dusted with peppermint candy.  OMG these are amazing!  This is the treat I would eat everyday if I could, peppermint and chocolate is my favorite combo.  You know I already tried them, and they are so delicious!

Must Have Fashion:  Erickson Beamon Rocks Blondie Stone Bangle ($75)
This bangle features clusters of showstopping stones with a hinged clasp.  I love this bracelet!  I love that it has a hinged clasp so you don't have to wrestle to get it on.  This is the perfect piece for me to wear to work or to wear out.  This is not an item that I can find online, but most people estimate this price of this item in the range of $75 due to the prices of the other bracelets on the site, which are pricey.

Must Have Beauty:  Winks by Georgie False Lash Compact ($28)
Get a striking look when you try out these reusable, high-quality Georgie Beauty false lashes.  I used to wear false lashes on special occasions, but now that I have to wear glasses not so much.  I will save these for a special day, they are fancy!

Must Have Fashion:  Cuyana Elizabeth Infinity Scarf ($65)
This infinity scarf is a wonderful winter accessory, incredibly soft and made from Peruvian alpaca fleece and stylish.  I received the scarf in cream.  This is a great classic piece.  The scarf is so soft!  In the photo I have it folded in half, it is twice as thick and the perfect length to layer around twice.  I love luxury items like this, something I wouldn't have bought for myself, but love.

I totaled the Winter Luxury box at a retail price of $343.95!  I paid $100 for these items, a great deal.  I will say it again, these luxury items are not something I would have picked out for myself, or been able to buy, so I love that I am able to own them.  These boxes are special, congrats to all the ladies that snagged one and thanks to my husband for buying it for me and letting me open it early ;) 

December PopSugar Box

My December Popsugar box arrived yesterday!  This is my favorite subscription box.  Popsugar promises the best and trendiest Must Have beauty, fashion, home and food items.  This month's theme is the wish list you never knew you needed.  I agree, I love all these items I am so glad I gifted them to myself ;)  Lets check out the goodies!

All the Goodies!

Must Have Home:  Mixt Studio Holiday Gifting set ($9) will dress up any present.  This wrap is adorable, it also comes with tags and twine and a few different prints.  Whichever of my Christmas gifts that get wrapped in this will look so fancy!

Must Have Beauty:  NCLA Peppermint Lane Nail Wraps ($16 ) these self adhesive nail wraps come in a festive print.  I have never tried nail wraps, I will definitely give these a try this one for one of my Christmas manis!

Must Have Fashion:  Lulu Frost for PopSugar Bracelet ($110) a girl can never have too many jewels.  Lulu frost made this bracelet exclusively for Popsugar.  I really like this piece, I like the mix of metal tones and a little bling.  It is hard to get one by myself, it needs the assistance of my hubby, but it is really cute on.  Would I have paid $110 for this?  NO, but I am going to rock this and am happy to own it!

Must Have Food:  Ghiradelli Squares Chocolates ($8)  Holiday Edition and Caramel packs.  I love these squares who doesn't?  Excited to taste the pumpkin spice caramel flavor!

Must Have Food:  CC Made Caramel Corn ($4) crunchy, sweet, and completely addictive.  This will make a great hostess gift, or maybe a gift for my mailman who nicely delivers all these packages.

I totaled this months Popsugar Box at $179.65, a great deal considering I paid $30 with an extended month plan.  Popsugar recently raised their monthly prices to $39.95, but they still have December box's available!  If you want the December items, or next months box CLICK HERE and use code REFER5, for $5 off your first box.  What did you think of this months Popsugar box?

PopSugar October Box

I got my October PopSugar box in the mail on Thursday, and I love it!  This months theme was celebrating women and breast cancer awareness month.  This month, they donated $1 for every box to breast cancer research and teamed up with a number of brands and products that support breast cancer charities, which is awesome.  I love beauty products and this month was heavy on them, which I appreciate lets check out the goodies!

all the goodies!

Must have Beauty:  Julep Polish Duo ($28.40):  I received the gorgeous blue color Char and the Julep Freedom Polymer Top Coat.  I already subscribe to Juleps box as well, and I love their polish, and I didn't have the topcoat yet so double win!  If you want to become a Julep Maven you get your first box for free use code Freebox here:  JULEP

Must Have Beauty:  The Wet Brush ($14 ):  I already use this hairbrush and I love it!  It really does work and wont rip out your hair when you brush it wet, which I do before I blow dry.  Mine is a few years old and was a gift and is looking a little haggard, so this is appreciated!

Must Have Food:  The Crispery Halloween CrispyCake ( $3.95):  Who doesn't love a nice big soft rice crispy treat?  MMMMM can't wait to try it 

Must Have Beauty:  NYX Cosmetics Liquid Liner ($6) and Smokey Shadow Palette ($7).   I was almost out of black liquid liner!  I am trying this one right away!  I love eyeshadow and always love new colors, but I think this is getting passed on to my mom who was looking for some new shades and that purple looks great, she will love it.

My mom is going to love this :)

Must Have Fashion:  Jane Tran Bobby Pins ($12):  The design is modern and colorful, yet not too flashy.  I will be using these, you can never have too many bobby pins!
