I got that same ugly mug. Have no idea why but it infuriated me. Who wants a mug in that color. But I got pearl earrings with a gold bar. Very difficult to put on. My box is going back
The exact same thing happened to me. I emailed them about it and they said it was an error and that I would be refunded. Here's hoping....
Give it a chance and at least have a look. I really thought I'd be sending everything back, but I liked it better in person, even if a couple of the items aren't a good fit for me.
I am really crossing my fingers for your exact variation or else ill be disappointedI received my box today, and I have to say that while I was pretty skeptical after the spoilers, I'm much happier with the box in my hands. I got pretty much every variation I would have selected on my own - purse in grey, mug in mint green, polish in Deep, and a surprisingly cute pair of earrings! I definitely think this box can swing from "OMG i hate this." to actually having some pretty cute items - depending on your variations. Keep the faith ladies! I'm not ready to give up on Nina just yet...

I got those earrings too! I'm not a fan of pearls so I would like to swap them for something else, if possible. What variations did everyone else get?Just got my box and I'm really glad I avoided checking the threads before then. I would've been having premature buyer's remorse. Instead I actually love it. Yes, even that beanie which made me go WTH when I first saw it.
I received the mink purse (brownish), a pale blue Pantone mug (549), the polish in Deep (dark aubergine), and I'm just adding a pic of the earrings since I can't find the style. They are silver with a white pearl. Sorry that my photography is awful so they look pinkish in parts. They are perfectly silver though. Very cool style and elegant. I expected some fringe after lurking her style pages in Marie Claire and am actually really happy with the way it's presented in the purse. It seems like a nice quality piece and the only drawback is that it won't have the longevity of real leather. Then again, will I be carrying a fringe purse in 5 years? Not sure ...
Overall I think it's really nicely curated. The oil for seasonal dry skin, a mug for drinking hot beverages, the dark polish is perfect for A/W, the beanie for cold weather, etc. The earrings are the "something shiny" according to her note (for those who haven't/won't receive the box).
The beanie I thought was going to be awful (like the hat in the summer box) but then I put it on and it was super cozy so I wore it in my house for a little and then kept it on when I went to run errands. It actually looks pretty cute and I also think it's amusing. it's got that crass class going for it.
I'm hoping that she doesn't quit because I feel I'm getting a lot out of her boxes and also Quarterly curators have been dropping like flies lately which bums me out.
I know, that beanie is a problem. Super comfy. I wore it out again today and just loved it. It's the perfect shape too.
