POPSUGAR Must Have July 2013

[zadidoll]

Stepping in here for a moment since obviously this will eventually be brought up. Gejag was auto-banned under our infraction system. Unfortunately despite my previous warnings my moderator had to issue an infraction at Gejag which automatically banned her account for the next year due to the duration of the infraction.

Please understand I do listen to my moderators concerns and comments in all matters and in this case my moderators and I discussed the situation before the infraction was issued and I gave my go-ahead to issue the infraction. So I'm aware of the situation and the reason behind why it was issued. This infraction will not be lifted by me and can only be lifted by two other people - the owners of MUT. You as the member can give your opinion all you want on a company or product be it a good or bad opinion, normally we also do not restrict foul language (to a degree) however what a member cannot do is bash another member or call another member names regardless if the name calling is vulgar or not.

I am actually seriously starting to look forward to that necklace.  It would have gone really nicely with the top I was wearing today (a seriously '60s pink paisley tunic).  It won't go with the necklines of most of my stuff (lots of v-neck type stuff), but today's shirt was practically a boatneck.  My big concern is that it will be too short.  I hate choker-style necklaces.  They always feel like I'm being strangled.  I do wish that subs would stay away from jewelry, though, because it's just one of those things that are really taste-specific, like perfume.

 Love the Mr. T picture! Another creative repurposing use at Halloween, to add finishing touch to a Pimp costume. Idea from DH who saw the picture and asked "why are they sending y'all a pimp chain?"

 You could try velvet ribbon or suede thong weaved through. Or mix with strand of pearls. Mine's going into the Halloween pile. Enjoy yours and share fun repurposing ideas!

I wouldn't say the necklace is a choker style. It does have a small extender on it so you can lengthen it a bit too. However, I would like the necklace more if the single chain was longer letting the double curb links lay a bit lower...I tend to wear longer necklaces. I don't mind necklaces that sit higher up on the neck/collar bone...but the chain has to be delicate. ANYHOW, after having tried it on...I think it looks better in person and it feels quite substantial.

I don't know exactly what happened, but I got a couple of PMs so I assume it was directed at me? Anyway, I finally got my shipping email this afternoon. My box was moving along pretty quickly but now it's been sitting since Saturday. Boo! I'll be out of town for a couple of days so it looks like I won't get mine until the weekend.

I got my box today and agree the necklace looks better on. It's not what I would buy for myself but I like that it's different and I'm going to try to make it work. For the ladies who are curious about how it lies, I took a pic with it on:

(although I'll admit the black tank doesn't help the Mr. T comparison!)

 
This wasn't my favorite box but I'll try to get use out of everything. Here's hoping August wows again!

The part about the necklace that bothered me was how shiny it was so I wove some ribbon in and am pretty happy with how it turned out  (I am not crafty at all)... At least its not going to be something I might put on now!

I still have not worn the Tassel necklace out of the house.  I attempted to once, my bf walked by and said , "boy, that necklace is ugly," and that was that. It should be said that he rarely comments on my jewelry and until then, it was only positive. I have put it on a lot of times, then taken it off because it just did not work with what I was wearing.  I still think I will find the right combo someday...

White v neck tee and jeans.   /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  coincidentally, that's also what I wear the G&G scarf with... lmao... Have I already mentioned I'm not very fashion savvy?   /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Perfect for summer! The necklace isn't as bad as everyone has been making it out to be either. I think it'll look really cute with a basic tank top, jeans and heels. It would look super cute with a denim shirt, as well! The tea sounds delish!! Can't wait to try it!! I love that the sunscreen is also anti-aging. I'll use it as my everyday face lotion once mine is gone. Overall, I think this is a great summer box!! You can't please everyone!

This!  I agree with everything in your post

I don't know if anyone mentioned this but I read the full blurb about the Supergoop! product on Sephora and it seems to be more than just an anti-aging sunscreen.

I am 22 (23 next weekend) so the anti-aging aspect did not impress me one bit because I don't particularly need it yet but then I read this on Sephora's site "Uniprotect PT-3 assists with repairing the skin from existing sun damage while reducing UV-induced oxidation" it also states that it is supposed to protect against "environmental stresses" and it's actually a serum not just a straight up daily moisturizer.

I haven't gotten my box (won't until Thursday) but thought this  information may help make somebody else more excited about their box.

Also, has anyone who got their box tried this product yet? I'm curious to see how skin reacts (especially people with sensitive acne-prone skin like me.

LOL! I think my biggest issue with it is wear it hangs.  The tassel dangles on my stomach and that just looks/feels weird to me.

I would like the info too. It looks like just weaving a satin ribbon through?

The necklace looks really cute on you! I like how you adjusted it with a simple ribbon /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

It does on me too --- which I wasn't sure I liked... but a couple of the girls at work asked me about it -- and one even made a point to tell me she was going to buy longer necklaces to wear after seeing that one on me.... which was kind of strange to me... as I am NOT fashion forward and honestly... anything I wear normal people run away from with a quickness /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  Popsugar is bringing me into the 'light'  lmao.

My husband saw the necklace and said, "I refuse to be seen with you wearing that." But this was it, good-bye PopSugar Must Have! It has been fun, but I am going to save the $35/month towards a big ticket item that is 100% me. Or maybe just more Juice Cosmetics products.

Either way, good luck ladies!

Hmmm.....  Another issue is that my style tends to veer to the sporty when I am not working.  I will wear that necklace this week, for more than 15 minutes ;-)
