Social Bliss

Is there a social bliss swap thread? I can't seem to find one. I'm in love with that scarf so if anyone is looking to trade it away PM me please!

I loved everything in my box, damn it! If only any of my Popsugar boxes could have been this good, I'd still be a subscriber. That said, this costs 8 more than PS, and that's definitely something to consider in deciding whether to resubscribe (I also had unsubbed thinking I wouldn't see the Feb box before being charged for Mar). But I think I'm in for one more month.... Enjoy your cruise! We did our vow renewal at sea and have done many international cruises over the years. If you can swing it, go for a full suite, or even a jr suite. Sometimes they'll upgrade honeymooners for free, so it doesn't hurt to ask. We have a family vacation home in the Amalfi Coast so I know you're going to love the Mediterranean experience! I wish I could pack us all up and head there now. But sigh, litigation demands and hubby's flying schedule don't show any signs of letting up in the near future. So please soak up some rays and atmosphere for me! And happy honeymooning ;-)

Thanks for pointing out the cost vs Pop! I didn't even think about that. You are SO nice /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />. Thanks for the well wishes. With all this wedding planning (I'm seriously not one of those females cut out for that type of planning) the honeymoon is ALL I'm looking forward to!! I can't wait! You and your family are so luck to have traveled so much. It's a 13 day cruise we're going on and it's our second ever. The first one was a 5 day to Bermuda so I'm a little nervous about the length. I didn't have any problems on the first cruise though so I'm not too worried. All the best to you and your family /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

No swap thread that I know of... This is only their second box they've sent out so I'm sure eventually if they keep getting a better rep, someone will create one at some point. But I actually have the scarf listed in my own trade list.. I'm just a little in the fence on trading it.

Received my box today and it contained the gold ring.  The items were described before so I won't give my 2 cents on each.  Overall, I really liked the box.  It is thought out and put together really nice.  I like the card describing the items with the prices for each.  And they sent me a shipping notice this time.  They didn't in January.  I am going to resubscribe.

I love that they don't use DHL, onTrac, or the worst, FedEx as their shipper. We'd still be waiting for boxes next week. I finally got my Jan box. They just hadn't sent it. I'm glad I stayed on them about it, since they had my moola already.

The shipping was fast.  So I guess it is worth having the shipping charge.  

I am glad you finally got your Jan box.  After all the frustration, what do you think of it?  What color clutch did you get?

@Vikki120306  Congratulations on the wedding and booking your honeymoon!! SO exciting!!  I'm sure you will have a wonderful wedding day!

I received my box today and I really like everything except the ring.  The ring looks really pretty in pictures but mine doesn't have a lot of the crushed mineral. It actually only has one piece that sticks up so it doesn't have any depth, just the one piece, which makes it look odd.  Plus, it's too big. I'll never get it small enough to fit any of my fingers.  I love the scarf and the wallet/clutch will get plenty of use in the spring for when I don't want to carry a purse around with me. To me, the rest of the stuff is just a bonus!

The info card was cool but did anyone notice the errors in it?  There were several. What's "weather resident"??

Thank you so much /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Funny, I didn't even thoroughly read the card.. I'm going to now though lol.

Yes!  I noticed the errors too.  There were a few of them in last month's card as well.  That stuff makes me cringe.  An occasional typo might be overlooked, but would it really be so hard to proofread before sending the boxes out?  To me, it just makes everything seem that much less polished.  Sorry, I know some people get annoyed when others are too obsessive about grammar/spelling/punctuation, but things like that drive me nuts!

OK, mini-rant over 

 

Did you get the gold or silver ring?  Has anyone gotten the silver one? 

 

[ChicagoBlonde]

I got the silver ring and I love it! I think this is the first full piece of silver jewelry from any of my subscriptions and I wear 99% silver. I'm not counting the LuLu Frost PS bracelet in this number. The crushed mineral has a dark lavender tone to it which looks great in person. I know the penguin PJs in the background are distracting but sadly those will not be on my swap list

 



These first two SB boxes have killed the Jan and Feb boxes. I'm souring on PS very quickly with the exception of the LE boxes.

My Instagram photo was featured on the card! Cool! W1sgal, I mean who knew!

I got the blue and love it! And I absolutely love the fedora. It was what made me buy the box. So I was super anxious to finally get it after looking at it online for two months. They both were delivered today and the Jan one had been overnighted so I was impressed. I'd rather they make an 11th hour save than just write off a customer. I resubbed for March, too.

 

[Fashion Diva]

These first two SB boxes have killed the Jan and Feb boxes. I'm souring on PS very quickly with the exception of the LE boxes. I dropped PS in Jan then resubbed for the half off Feb box. Was Glad for the code because it was pretty much worth $20. Where SB absolutely rocked it for the same box price. And I'm fine paying shipping so long as it arrives quickly. The amount saved by not paying it with PS equals weeks and weeks in shipping limbo. So I decided to just stick with their LE boxes. I'll be anxious to see how the resort one plays out. For $100 it could go either way. I didn't love the Neiman Marcus LE box last time. I just don't dig chevron design and it the box was filled with it ( it felt that way, lol). I really hope it's not another Jonathan Adler themed box with just home items and a random polish thrown in. At Å‚east here with SB the focus is on style, not just beauty or lifestyle (or food, hello PS - overpriced red hots and popcorn out the wazoo!)

 

[Fashion Diva]

I’m trying to figure out of the polish is supposed to be an effects type. It goes on with a matte finish but that’s it. It’s…different. Not bad. Just unusual. I’m wondering if I’m missing something since it looks marbled in the bottle. Anyone?

The scarf would make a fab sarong in the Med ;-) just thought I'd help get you off the fence, lol!

 

[MissJexie]

I don't subscribe to this box, but I jumped in to see what you guys got this month and wow I'm jealous!

I LOVEEEE that ring. I love that it's adjustable even more because I have big fat sausage fingers. Ugh so pretty and totally my style.

I am in desperate need of a new wallet, and that one is super cute. Again: jealous!

Everything else is really lovely. Wish I could afford this subscription but it's way out of my price range right now /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Looking forward to seeing next month's box!

Okay, you are officially my go to for fashion creativeness haha. Keeping it would be easier than wading though all the swap offers on mysubscriptionaddiction.com lol.

 

[Kittylasmu]

Got my box yesterday and I agree with other posts-- better than Popsugar. 

SB communication isn't very good and I got a shipping notice a day before it arrived, but overall, a nicer box. 

And, the cost is a bit higher than PS, but the tracking is far superior because they aren't using some crappy shipping service--I was able to see when it was out for delivery and when it had been delivered.

I may just stick with SB and ditch PS.

And the card is super informative, I love how they describe the item in full and then make suggestions on use. I was wondering why the pen top was the way it is lol

 

[JenniferV]

Very happy with this!!! Now I am dying to know what they will do for March!

 

[Vikki120306]

Hey Social Bliss ladies,  your boxes should be shipping soon, no?  Or maybe some spoilers out?

 

[Mrs30009]

The other boxes were shipped the last week of the month.  So I am guessing they will ship them out next Monday.  I am excited to see what they come up with this time.
