I just got a response from SocialBliss that the shoulder strap does not come with the bag.  The designer made these purses specifically for SB without the strap.  I won't use it as often without the strap.  So this will be more of a fun outing bag.

No strap, it's smaller than that one we saw on the webpage IMHO
I didn't realize it was smaller.  So then it really is a SB exclusive.

 
It's very interesting and I thinks it's better than what we saw online. The petite version with this color is better.

Just got mine too - Look us Wisconsin girls get something on the first day ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I agree 100% like the smaller version.  I would like the shoulder strap included - but this will force me to use it as an actually handbag which is the look I like (I'd get lazy with the shoulder strap).   I got the biege-y pink version - I was hoping for the lighter color, but I think I'll like this one just fine.

I'm just going to assume everyone has seen all the other spoilers at this point, if not stop reading.

I actually like the headband - it's staying on my head (most wrap around types slip right off my odd shaped head) and is thin enough with my thin hair, it still is working.  Color me surprised.....

Nope - its definitely not included.

 
Headband surprised me too. I tried it with bow near my ear, thinking classy style of the 50's? Not sure in the time frame I'm thinking of, but placement improves the look IMHO

 
While this box does look to be pretty amazing, I am a little disappointed there is no shoulder strap. Had there been, this would probably be the most mind blowing lifestyle box ever.

 
So the mailman finally showed up around 6 this evening.  No box, even though it was out for delivery today.  Then, a few minutes after I came back inside empty handed, I got an email from Social Bliss saying my box had been delivered!  Sure enough, on the tracking, it is marked as delivered.  However...it's definitely not here.  Ugh, I am not happy.  I really hope the box appears tomorrow.

 
That happened to one of my other box subs too. Since that tracking email is auto generated, I think there's something where the mailman scans it wrong. I called my post office to check and they said it was out next day. And thank goodness it was. 

 
Trying to picture pocket book with and without shoulder strap. I'm a shoulder bag girl (not long strap gal) myself. It'll take some getting used to, but IMHO the strap may have made it look dated with the pastel color. I'm liking it. Different and stylish.

 
Got my box!  I like the purse.  I got the pink one, which I'm happy about.  I'm fine with just using the top handle for now, but I think I might look into buying a shoulder strap from eBay or something.  With a shoulder strap, I'd use that bag all the time.  The brush set is nice--I can always use more makeup brushes, and the roll is cute and handy.  The headband is pretty, although I couldn't figure out where to put the bow without looking ridiculous.  I tried to untie it and realized that the bow part is actually detachable--so now I will wear it without the bow, and I like it much better.  I'll probably tie the bow onto the purse, which will be even better.  The lip balm is always useful, and I like the smell of the soap.  I do wish it were a regular bar, rather than hotel-sized, but if I think of it as an "extra", I'm fine with it.  

Overall, this wasn't my favorite SB box (that would be last month's), but I do like it, and I'll use everything I got!

Also, this is silly, but is anyone else just a bit disappointed that there weren't macarons included in the box?  I know they'd be tricky to ship without crumbling into pieces, but still!  I don't usually care to get food items in sub boxes, but I love macarons!

I was secretly hoping they would send macaroons too.

 
I am really glad that I skipped this month!  I don't really like anything in the box and I have LOVED all the boxes so far.  I'm super happy everyone else is enjoying their boxes!  Awesomeness!!! 

 
Just a heads up! If you are wishing this had a strap, e-mail Social Bliss and let them know you want one. It's $4 and you'll need to give them authorization to charge your card and the color of your bag. I heard they are making it available as a "must have" item to subscribers!

Thanks for the heads up!  I just emailed them :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
