YES! My thoughts exactly! =) I think this month's box sounds amazing! I'm excited about every item in it! Too bad mine probably won't be here until Friday or Saturday ... 

 
I'm pretty excited for this box - I like hanky pankies and find them to be really stretchy, so don't lose hope yet :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> The rest of the contents sounds great as well, though I'm interested to see if 

the wrap is actually one size fits all. The model on the Brokedown site is quite tiny lol.
 
i LOVE this box!!!

I wore Hanky Panky thongs a lot when I was pregnant and they are really stretchy. And they didn't stretch out so I can still wear them now. 

 
I can't tell too well, but it looks like the spa wrap has elastic on the sides to help stretch out a bit more. It also looks like it's a towel, so if it doesn't fit well as a wrap maybe it could fit around the waist as a swim coverup or used as a hair towel? I know that's a bit boring but at least it wouldn't have to get thrown out or given away (assuming you're not into putting it on ebay or the trade thread).
 
I am truly sorry for those who are on the bigger side who can't fit into these things. My mom struggled with her weight for a long time and it was really discouraging for her to shop sometimes. Then you think a box like this will give you treats, but then sends stuff that is too small. :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
 
IMO, even without the wrap and thong, (which I'm excited about, but understand others' perspectives) there's more that I will use from this box than january's...the revlon, the book, the chocolates, and I'm actually thrilled about the jewelry cleanser. I don't own any, and my engagement ring looks funky in the setting area. 

 
I wonder if

the wrap and hanky pankys will be in assorted colors.  I am dying to see some pics from that box!  I have been unable to find the chocolate tresor actually up for sale anywhere.  I am just so delighted with this box :)

 I'm reeeeally excited about this box too!   

At first I was bummed when I read about the underwear since I am actually pregnant right now and thought it would be months until I could wear them, but you put my mind at ease! I could use a comfy pair of underwear right now!

I always read these threads but never post.  I just got my box!

A quick rundown:


-Brokedown wrap

-hanky pankys (mine were yellow)

-mariebelle new york's tresor box (chocolates)

-revlon just bitten stain (mine is in color honey)

-safe haven book and song download

-connoisseurs quick jewelry cleanser

I'm really excited to get this box - it seems in line with

the Valentine's / pampering / Oscars theme
... I can't wait to get mine - I always end up liking the items more once I see the contents in person.

Congrats! Yeah, when you get them, you'll see how far they stretch in all directions. And you'll feel like a sexy mama!
 
A little bummed. The panties and the wrap are definitely not going to fit me. I guess I'll be using them as a giveaway on my blog. :)
 
700

I threw together a quick Polyvore collage, but I am dying to see real pictures of what everything else.  I had to guess at a few!

 
I did not subscribe to this month's box but I wish I had because

I want the Revlon lip stain, especially if it is in Honey. That color is consistently sold out at a lot of stores and is one of the "everyday" or "universal flattering" colors according to a lot of bloggers and youtube videos. Some people like it more than the Tarte ones (I have been trying to figure out if I should shell out for Tarte or Revlon ones).

My thoughts exactly.. I hope not because although they are awesome PS doesn't know our sizes
I think Hanky Pankys are "one size fits all" ..but I know a lot of girls on here had issues with StyleMint not going up to a large enough size for them so wouldn't be suprised if some people are out of the "all" range..

Yeah, it says sizes 2-12...which would not fit me (though I'm not getting this box..but I'd be sad if I was, and I got a box with the main items too small for me:(  )

Are the Hanky Panky things a thong or just like regular undies?  I can't stand having a constant wedgie!

They are a thong but many people who don't normally like that kind of thing think they are comfortable. Check out a few reviews online to see if you want to give them a try. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Thanks...I'll look around.  Can't hurt to try, right?

Believe me-- i hate the constant wedgie thing. But hanky panky's are ridiculously comfortable. 

 
After my big argument with popsugar about not sending me a February box, I'm not that disappointed knowing what the items are. I'm in the too chunky for one size fits all group and am super sensitive about it right now (diets, stress) and this would've driven me to tears loll. Popsugar actually did me a favor by not sending me the box and then refusing to send it after my begging. I guess I'll have wait until march and hope for some cool stuff. Although I do have to say, to those that can fit the one size..., that it is a great box and I hope you girls enjoy it :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
