PopSugar Special Edition Fall 2014

[jbird1175]

I'm pretty thrilled with this box! I am a little surprised that they put a scarf in the LE box since the regular box contains a scarf also.... I personally don't mind another scarf but could see where others might be disappointed.

Also... While stalking the internet for the scarf, I read that Shopstyle (owned by Popsugar) just launched the Marchesa Voyage collection on their site. Makes sense... good catch to whoever pointed out the designer in the inspiration board!

Hmmm, looks like a box full of like for me, potentially.  I'm not sure on a couple items, will have to see them in person.  

My box has said departed Sacramento since Saturday morning, so it should actually be in the next spot waiting to be scanned by now.  I'll probably have mine between Thursday and Saturday.

I'm a scarf person, so I'm one who doesn't mind.  I kind of wish they'd have gone with a slightly younger design for the scarf chosen though, this one seems a bit grandma to me...at least from the small picture on my screen.  Maybe it'll be better in person though.  

I'm happy it will match my winter coat (a bright-burnt orange), if it gets cold enough to wear it this year.

Not a fan of the box but I usually change my mind when I get it! Hopefully the scarf will trade well on the boards.. =/

Thank you, @@shabs! I'm so glad I can sleep soundly knowing what's in the box now, lol. I am definitely liking what I see so far! Love the scarf and hat. I just hope I $100 like it once it arrives. I think the effectiveness of the beauty products will be what tips it in either direction. The reviews say the lipstick is soft and breaks easily. I'm liking the notes in the perfume, so I hope that it works for me (and as many of us as possible!)

I'm wondering what the geometric patterns were on the pinterest board? Was it regarding the shape of the lipstick?

i just want to say that I am so happy the hat is cream colored and not black. Finally something that will look good against dark hair! I'm sure it will look great on all you blondes out there too.

I'm most excited about the hat and the brightening cream. Although I'm a little disappointed that we're not getting either the super cute striped scarf or mittens from Joie and I'm hoping there is a little discount code in the box for Joie so I can buy one or both of them. 

I agree that the scarf looks a little old-ladyish. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's cuter in person.

I've had a couple of lipsticks from this line in the near past.  As long as you're not twisting it up all the way or jamming it on your lips, it should be just fine.  I didn't feel they were any softer than usual for lipsticks.  The ones I've had before were pretty nice to wear, not too drying or smeary.  

I'm loving this color they picked, it'll be great for fall/winter!

im sure i will love but in the monthly there have been scarves, parfume, lipstick/gloss, hat.......i know these are different but it's like the same type of feel to monthly......again, im sure it will be even better once i open but feels like its a repeat + i may just stay with month sub! will be interesting to see who likes scarf better in LE or monthly! 

 

[camel11]

Wow! I can't believe there was a labor day spoiler! What a gorgeous box. I have a million scarfs, but not a cobalt one. .. and I've been wanting to try indie Lee. Big win for me!

 

[CSCS2]

I found a better picture of the scarf! It's part of a collaboration between Marchesa and ShopStyle (and not just something that was created for this box):

Thanks for posting the spoilers, it was nice surprise, especially since my box seems to be at a stand still. Anyway, it is a lovely box, and the dollar value is there. But, as others have posted, it is kind of similar to a monthly. I was also hoping it would SCREAM FALL, and I feel it barely whispers it.

 

[jebest]

Thank You for posting the spoilers, I also feel it just whispers fall. I do not wear scarfs so I am kind of feeling down about getting 2. Also since the scarf is the highest priced item in both boxes. I guess I just need to wait till I see it in person.

 

[jebest]

I held on on buying a new wallet, hoping maybe we would get one. Time to go shopping /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 I couldn't stay away from spoilers! I'm loving this box, but I do agree that it's not as fall-y as I would have liked.

I wonder if there are variations of anything this time.

 

[Kerryliz]

Ughhh. Hate hats. HATE them. (Edit: I just realized I'm wearing a hat in my picture.... so apparently I'm a hypocrite!)

Also, from the perfume website:

 "BYWAY is a sweet fragrance inspired by one unforgettable lap dance."

Cuz you know... I've always wanted to smell like a stripper...

 

[AshJs3]

Love it! I wish the lipstick was a better brand though.

 

[danipeach]

Tried to go without spoilers...couldn't. I'm so weak.  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Loving this box, though. Couldn't be happier!

LOL. Winter hats are different than hipster hats.
