Oh no!

So sorry. With it being limited edition and sold out so crazy fast, I'm sure to could sell it as a whole or the individual items really easily and get your money back. Or gift some!

Lovely box!  Thank you for posting spoilers and sharing.  I didn't get one but now I must get myself a zebra plate! 

 

[aquaria527]

Wow. I couldn't really justify spending the $$ on this box (though I ended up splurging for the LE winter box anyway) but it is AWESOME. I love almost all the items, and am super envious. I love the portion plates! And the necklace! The zebra dish is super cute too... And I'm really curious about that spray! 

Yay for all you who got it! It would be nice to win one, but with my luck.... In the mean time, I'll look forward to the LE!

Glad this sold out so fast so I didn't have the opportunity to buy it!  I'd only use about half of this stuff, considering I don't wear gold jewelry, hate pine/balsam scents, and don't need more eyeshadow.  My husband would be giving that Jonathan Adler dish some serious side eye, too, lol, even though I like it.  However, I will take this as a sign from the universe to buy that Oribe spray from BB, since it's been on my wishlist for awhile, and I deserve an award for not spending $250.  Totally logical.

I'm actually really happy I didn't end up buying.

I actually like everything in the box, but I don't think it's worth $250. I mean, technically it's worth a lot more than that, but even though I like everything nothing pops out as something I MUST have.

Yep - I think a lot of it is paying for the brand. I'm kind of curious if I can find non branded versions of a lot of it for a lot less. I'm happy for those who are happy with it, it definitely isn't a bad box, but not for me (and glad I didn't spring for it). I think for the money, I can find more wow factor stuff for myself. I looove those plates though, but I make pottery, so maybe I can make myself something similar hahah.

Hmmm. Kinda underwhelmed with this, ngl. It all seems a bit boring, and kind of what they could get Nieman's to throw in for cheap. I like the candle, and that's about it. I could buy that sperately though, and save a ton of money.  A gold plated necklace? Really? Might as well get something similar at Claire's. IDK. I was expecting more. For $250, I could raid Sephora's Christmas gift sets and be much happier for it.

Bc a lot of the value of this box is in a few items (Throw, Plates, LMdB, and Necklace), you could buy the other items and pay much less, I think $124 total for the zebra dish, candle, sugar-coated Bugles, and spray. If anyone is sad about missing out on the box, you might consider this. I know some people were looking at another chevron throw.   /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I didnt get this one, but wish I had. The throw is lovely and those plates are exactly the kind of plates I would choose. I love those home items. The only thing I wouldn't like is the eyeshadow, I think a $100 value item of surprise eyeshadow is a bit of a risk. It's actually the make up spoilers that came out that stopped me from buying it.

 

[susanleia]

This box looks great! Seriously considering buying those plate, they are adorable. I hope everyone that bought it is happy with it!

 

[junkiejk]

A great upscale box, wishing everyone who indulged pure enjoyment and satisfaction!

 

[LaStupenda]

If you like the necklace, you can get a nearly identical one on Etsy for a fraction of the price

[jannie135]

I'm glad I resisted lol

All those items look great, but I'm currently living in my parent's house and I wouldn't have any use for the plates, etc and I'm not into pink eyeshadows... the only thing that appeals to me is the necklace (so cute!!) but again, it's easy to find cheaper alternatives. But it looks like an awesome box! Just not for me, lol.

 

[sparklegirl]

For those of you interested in the zebra dish, it's available in the birchbox shop so you can use codes and/or points to get a good deal!

 

[LisaLeah]

Thank you so much for posting the contents!!!!

Question about the Le Metier Kaleidoscope....

is the bottom color black?

And is the top color a light pink or a pale cream?

Also, don't forget the LMdB shadows are designed to be layered.

So if you don't normally wear pink, try layering them together to see what beautiful shade it turns into!

You can layer from top to bottom or bottom to top.

Same here.

It's very nice, for sure, but I already have plenty of "home" stuff. I don't need or want random dishes at all.

So I'm super glad I skipped this, but it'll be fun to watch unboxings and everything.

 

[yousoldtheworld]

I had major envy last night, but now it has passed, a little. I love home stuff, so I would love the throw, plates, and zebra dish (and the other stuff is nice, too) but I would have spent maybe $150 on those things, not what was actually charged. So, I'm feeling a little better...but I do think I'll buy the chevron throw I found on overstock and maybe use some BB points on the zebra dish /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

The bottom shade is black and the top is a cream probably best used as a base.
