PopSugar Special Edition Resort Box

I emailed Sisco Berluti:

I noticed there was an instagram pic tagged Popsugar; it showed a really pretty bracelet stack in turquoise and gold. Will that be included in the upcoming Popsugar Resort box, or was that for fashion week or some other event?

The pop sugar photo is the stack included in one if their boxes. I am not sure if it is the resort one. Would you like me to check for you?

I asked if they could check. Of course, it could be for some special secret employee box or something, but hopefully we'll soon know for sure.

I actually think there's a pretty high likelihood these bracelets will be in the box. Sure, their retail value is high (massively inflated, in my opinion) but the actual cost of the materials is pretty low. Meaning that they could sell/give them to Popsugar for a low price, which would be cost-effective for Popsugar and with a high perceived value for their customers (win/win). Plus, the Pinterest board specifically mentions labradorite, brass and turquoise.

Ok I'm on this tomorrow.  First thing I'm purchasing!

Today I have to restock on my cat's $50/bag food. Ugh, he's such a terrible roommate, always leaving his litter, food and hair on the floor and never cleaning up after himself.

I hope so. I really like the bracelets and the different textures of them. I know we have never seen this brand in PS boxes before BUT Sisco & Berluti bracelets were included in last year's Birchbox Head of the Class LE boxes - you got two friendship bracelets: http://www.ramblingsofasuburbanmom.com/2013/08/birchbox-head-of-the-class-limited-edition-box-review/

That box was only $28 but the retail value of those two bracelets together was $30. Sooooo....here's hoping!

Yes, I'm quoting myself – just so anyone jumping in will see the rest of the conversation. I got a response:

Quote: Me I would love it if you could let me know which box is getting the bracelets! Thanks so much.    Sisco Berluti The bracelets are in the March box.

Well, the resort box ships in March. But so does the regular box... But no matter what, it looks like bracelets are headed our way!

(And if they're not, and this person is misinformed, please don't shoot me. I'm just the messenger.)

 

[camel11]

UGH Now I wonder if I should get the March Box!!

 

[emwdz]

So we're getting those awesome bracelets that have a huge retail value in the regular box, which still leaves room for some really great products in the Resort Box? Seems too good to be true - but I hope not!

A Joan Holloway style pen necklace? The necklace looks like it was put on over her coat in a 'here, model this for a minute' way.  Edit: Ah right, 2013. I thought it seemed familiar. But then, I've watched a lot of Mad Men.

I still think the bracelets are more likely for the Resort box, since they fit the inspiration photos perfectly. I don't know what else they'd send that fits besides jewellery, and it's not likely they'd send turquoise/labradorite in multiple boxes so close together.

I just sent them another follow up email asking if the bracelets are for the $100 box or the $40 box that comes out in March, so we'll see if they reply! Fingers crossed it's for the Resort box. I don't know why PopSugar would feature all the materials used in the bracelets on the Pinterest page if they weren't going to be included.

You are seriously awesome. I never would have thought to do this By the way, still stuck on kaftans personally. But didn't they have an article not too long ago on popsugar about an Australian designers fashion show that had a cactus garden? It's like playing clue

I've been thinking about this and examining those pics on Pintrest. . . I think we are in for a hammock, some kind of aromatherapy, there are such things as candles in coconut shells. . . . I don't know, I'm probably wrong. . It's all based on looking at pics and reading and thinking. . .whats your thought?
