things we love: rocksbox

I recently had a friend tell me about RocksBox and I was immediately intrigued.  I have always loved playing with costume jewelry.  It makes an outfit look finished, even if what you are wearing is your mom uniform (which in my case recently involves a lot of workout apparel) and it just makes me feel better when I leave the house to have a bit of jewelry on.  BUT, who can afford to buy jewelry when you are a mom?  Even the costume stuff is not cheap, if it’s well designed.  And as you may have noticed by my Instagram feed, most of any excess dollars in this house goes to supporting our kiddos’ wardrobes and not so much my own.

Enter RocksBox.  It’s an unlimited subscription service for jewelry.  What does unlimited mean?  They will send you three pieces and you can keep them on loan for as long as you want – or send them back for new ones!  If you really love something, you can even purchase it at a discounted rate.  And you get these pieces (average value of $200 per box) at just $19 per month!  I mean, is there any downside here??

I just received my first RocksBox this week, and I was so pleased with the result!  I filled out their online style survey when I signed up and added a bunch of styles I loved to my #wishlist.  I am super picky about jewelry (and well, a lot of things), so I was a little nervous to leave the picking totally up to them, but I couldn’t be more pleased with the surprises I got!  Plus, the thrill of happy mail.

My fab new pieces from my first RocksBox.  [Side note, I think I finally found the perfect shade of mint nail polish.  It’s called ‘Fashion Playground’ by Essie.]

I think she approves.  [My fave new sling is by Sakura Bloom.]
