August 2016 Luxily Boutique Box

Theme:  The Sweet Escape

I always feel SO fancy when Luxily is delivered to my door! This is one of the most beautiful boxes I receive and is always filled with gorgeous items that make me swoon. With summer coming to an end, I could really use a “Sweet Escape” right about now!

The Cost:  $49.95 per month (Bi-Monthly)

COUPON:  LUXILYFOUNDERS20

*Save $20.00 off your first box!!!

I love the full-color printing on the interior! SO pretty!

The information sheet is adhered to the inside lid of the box and details each of the featured items. The item descriptions also include true retail values, which is a huge plus!

S’well Bottle – Amethyst (9 oz) | $25.00

S’well bottles are beautifully crafted composed of non-leaching and non-toxic 18/8 stainless steel, that keeps your drinks cold for 24 hours and hot for 12, while giving back to those in need. S’well is a charitable community member and proud partner of charitable organizations. As the premier fashionable and reusable water bottle, we have found that our customers love these bottles worldwide. – S’well

Anyone who knows me knows I have a serious water bottle obsession. (It’s a sickness.) S’well bottles are drool-worthy and have been on my holiday wish list for years! They’re too expensive for me to justify buying myself, which is why I am SO excited I received one in my Luxily Box!!!

 This particular bottle has a stone-like texture for added grip and holds 9 ounces of liquid. It’s so tiny!! Not gonna lie, I’ve been obsessing over Luxily’s pre-made gift boxes and quickly favorited The Greenhouse box, primarily for the gorgeous green S’well bottle! *Sigh* I’m in water bottle heaven right now.

The Handbag Raincoat (Midi Raindrop) | $28.00

A raincoat for my purse. This is one of those occasions where I wish I came up with the idea myself! I’m sure women with expensive purses are jumping for joy over this invention!

It comes in its own carrying case which is small enough to tuck away in your bag for quick access.

Since I do not own a single nice purse, I tested it out over my camera case! I really could have used this the other day when mom and I were caught in a torrential downpour at New Belgium Brewing Co. I like the cartoon raindrop design and scalloped edges. I’m on the fence whether I would actually use it though, since I genuinely don’t have nice bags to protect from the elements. This will probably go in our giveaway stash!!

Tell me in the comments below if you’d like a giveaway to include this cute handbag raincoat!! 🙂

Calliope Hair Elastic Set (Coco) | $11.00

These are SUPER pretty hair ties! I love the colors and patterns in this set. Calliope is an Oakland, CA-based company that thoughtfully sources 100% vegan fabrics to make vintage-modern accessories and handbags. Everything in the shop is designed and produced in Oakland and a percentage of all sales goes toward helping animal sanctuaries.

I have received a few different sets of handmade elastic hair ties over the years. As much as I love the look of them, my hair is too thick and straight to use them! This set will be going in our giveaway stash, as I’m positive one of you would LOVE using these in your (perfect) hair! 🙂

The Social Type “Muah!” Matches | $6.00

PINK matchsticks! I think I just died and went to girly pyro heaven! There are a bagillion matches inside this box (75 to be exact) and all of the match tips are super hot pink with a little sparkle.

The back of the box has a pair of gold foil kissy lips! I adore this little matchbox and will definitely be using these around the house to light all of our candles. I have girly matches!!!!!

Luxily Boutique Box owner, Samantha Annen, included a special thank you gift for subscribing! This is really thoughtful and so sweet. Just one more reason to love this box…

Well-Kept Screen Cleansing Towelettes “Hamptons” (15 count) | $6.00

I can always use more screen cleaning cloths in this house. This particular brand has an insane amount of positive reviews on Sephora.com. I tested one on my glasses and found the towelette to be way too wet which left water spots on my lenses when they dried. The second towelette wasn’t nearly as soggy and worked much better when cleaning my phone and computer screen. I stuck the tiny package in my work bag and am positive I will use every wipe.

My Thoughts

August 2016 Luxily Boutique Box Total Value:  $70.00

 The total box value is fantastic and the curation is very well done, as always, but I am so torn with this month’s box!! On one hand I received the water bottle of my dreams and the sweetest pink matches imaginable, but I also received a couple items I will not use. I am starting to feel like I am not as luxe as my Luxily Boutique Box wants me to be! I am still looking forward to the October box and hope there are more items in it that fit my lifestyle!

…but seriously, I got a S’well bottle!!!! Weee!!!
