Link?  I only saw them on net-a-porter.

Edit:  never mind, I see them on maiyet.  It looks like the net-a-porter ones are SLIGHTLY different (not $100 different, but different). Staring REALLY closely at the spoiler pics, the ones in the box seem to match the maiyet ones, not the net-a-porter ones.  HMMM....

Dodged a bullet (or a dart) on this one.  Sorry to those who bit the bullet and are disappointed.    :couch:

i see something on the site where it shows someone said that.

Wait, what? Is that seriously the box? Oh PS!

I didn't get the box but, I would've been a little let down if I did, honestly.

Predicting that this thread might come in handy for those of you who got the box and don't have pierced ears...

Without having the items in hand I think I'm a little disappointed.  I like the earrings, the market tote and the book.  I wish the nail polish were more interesting colors and the lipstick was an entirely different item.  I like MJ but hate wearing a logo so I'm on the cuff (haha) with the bracelet. This would meet my expectations for a $100 box but maybe not the $212 I spent. 

I'm actually really missing that beach towel now.  I think what the box is missing is something fun.

Also, this box sold out super fast.  I'm guessing they didn't have that many of them.  So, I felt even more like it was going to super awesome, and, now even more let down.  

I cannot find Milly nailpolish online.  Does anyone have a link?  Not only do I not have pierced ears, I am allergic to a lot of nailpolish brands.  

I agree, I would not be so upset if I paid $100 for this box.  

Plus, as someone on MSA pointed out, if the earrings are 295, not 395, the value of the box is 510.  I am pretty certain PS said it would be 600+ dollars worth of items.

I'm going to tear out all the pages of the book and wear it as a dvf dress. So there. Fashion

Just kidding.

Dunno about the box. Nothing worse than getting items you physically cannot use/eat/wear.

If the bracelet runs small it won't fit me. Thanks for sharing your box though. Really nice to put that effort.

Mixed feelings. Need to see more details I think.

Not mine.  

I linked to here.

Which shows them at 295.

Is brass what turns our skin green? What metal does that?

I see them on a number of sites for 295....and this site has them for 247.

Hmmm this is interesting not at all what I was expecting.  I ll hold off judgement till its in my hands but I m really surprised they had one item have so much of the value, just think of what a lovely 300+ bag that could have been oh well.  In eyes it was a $100 box and then a donation to charity ya.  I think we should put together a box though because ladies we came up with some amazing ideas, I was so excited for some of those things lol.

I think I might be in the minority, but I love this box! I am surprised that earrings are the big ticket item because many people can't wear them, but for me I am excited. I have extremely sensitive ears & can't wear most earrings. The only ones I can wear for longer than a few hours are very expensive so I just don't have many. I adore the MJ bangle & I'm a huge Clare V. addict, so I love the bag for travel or shopping or just to keep in my auto for organizing summer essentials, like extra waters & sunscreen. Madewell always has bags like this & I've been wanting to pick one up, but they are spendy. The lipstick is a brand I've seen a lot & have been wanting to try & the packaging is beautiful! I'll be gifting the book to my friend who is a big DVF fan & she's a librarian & pretty much obsessed with books haha. I was hoping to have more items to swap, but I'm afraid I might only be able to part with the polish. I might try to swap the earrings for something on my wish list, but I want to see them first probably & if I end up keeping them, I'm happy. If I go shopping with my girlfriends & end up blowing $200, I usually don't end up coming home with stuff this nice. Just my opinion. Over all, I love it!

 

[Teach22]

I have to say too I like the free swag bag they gave out at that event ALOT better than this one /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

It's usually copper but other metals can do it too if you are allergic. Nickel can me problematic too for many.

I'm hoping they'll send an alternate piece of jewelry to those of us who marked that we don't have pierced ears (in our preferences)... hopefully?

 

[Stacy Hammond]

That is a good point!!  I can not wear earrings and checked 'no' in my preferences - I wonder if they took that into consideration for this box?  I am almost excited again!  Anyone get the box who does not have pierced ears?  

 

[Teach22]

i doubt they send a different piece of jewelry this was Popsugar's response when someone asked if the cool variation in the makeup set from the Resort box would also be sent (warm vs cool is also a question in the profile) :

we'll be offering the colors listed in our photo. Just to clarify, the preferences aren't used to customize boxes, but rather to get an understanding of what our subscribers like

Bummer.

I wish I still didn't know what is in the box.  I hope these items trade well.
