Thanks Mishmash!  I can't tell is the wallet in the box blue or do they come in different colors?  What a fun and different box, I wonder if the chain is removable.  Come on box get here quick!

It's definitely blue.  Even the manager said she couldn't tell how long the chain would be. I doubt there are variations. It doesnt say so on the card.

You could write on candles. Similar to the chalk candle concept. But on glass :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

EDIT: or fun messages on mirrors :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Endless options..

I was thinking of using it on the glass photo frame we just got in October! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

And I love the wallet. I hope the chain is long enough to wear it crossbody. We just got key cards for the office and I keep forgetting to take it out of my purse when I walk around!

 
Thank you so much, MishMish! I'm so glad that bag's a wallet on a chain! That's just what one of my gift recipient needs! Can't wait to get this box.

 
ahh I'm SOOO happy it's a wallet! I've been in desperate need of one for awhile now, and it's been on my pop sugar wishlist since the summer!

Someone previously mentioned they were bummed that it's faux leather. I have a few high-end bags that are "vegan leather" and let me tell you- it's anything but plastic. It looks amazing, feels super soft and realistic, and when made correctly, looks very high end. I wouldn't worry about this one not looking nice!

Oh darn, I was hoping the purse wasn't faux leather (not a fan of plastic purses) but everything else looks great! I used the MSA code for an additional box to gift, so I think even minus the purse value this box was a win :)

I have a sorial tote made of this vegan leather and I assure you there's nothing plastic feeling about it. I actually never would have known it wasn't leather if it wasn't written in the description. It is very buttery soft.

AND, my tote is half tan and half BLUE! so now I have a matching wallet. I am so flipping excited! And a wallet is the last thing I need.

Is there a monogram in the heart on the notecards? I'd like to gift them to my sister. She's getting married in June and this blue happens to be one of her colors. It'd be a weird gift, though if it were a random letter. Thanks! 

 
Thanks for the spoilers!!!!   I am so excited for my November box now!  I love all of it! 

 
I'm super thrilled about the wallet. Love that it's faux leather and the color is perfect!

(Of course this means that there'll also be a wallet in the upcoming LE box ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> )

The rest will be appreciated .. can't wait for the book!

Now I just hope I'll get the lovely wallet before thanksgiving break.

 
Staffiano does not mean faux leather; it is a treatment that stamps the leather with a pattern of lines and makes it somewhat rigid, like the LV logo bags. Vegan or real leather, the quality of the wallet will show on the trim, chain and workmanship. Seems like a nice brand and I am glad I used the GWP $10 discount on a 3 month sub.... Just can't bear to quit popsugar, and I get more joy from monthly boxes than the $100 ones.

I don't mind the quality of faux leather being similar to real leather, what bothers me is junk contaminants in plastic and mysterious breakdown components and fumes. Like if my toddler daughter starts sucking on it, thats a real concern for me. That's all, I'm sure it would make a nice gift :)

ETA since purses aren't food products or in contact with food, it's not regulated as such (and shouldn't be of course), and so faux leather purses (and clothes) make me more nervous than other plastic goods about what could be in them.

ETA again this box looks great and I'm really excited for the rest of it. I'm freaking excited for the book and I don't bake, and the popcorn everyone keeps raving about so I hope my expectations aren't too high!

Leather tanning is probably similar with respect to questionable content in the end product ..

I would give neither to a kid to chew on ... or wear directly on skin.

But I'm ok with either .. I just avoid leather if possible.

Ok. I just figured it meant that because I saw this - "Who can resist the faux saffiano leather and 6 rich colors?!"..thanks for clarifying.
