February Rocksbox Review | 2015

Ready for another amazing Rocksbox? I know I am! I’m about to send this month’s box back and wanted to share what I thought with all of you! Although I’m not completely in love with all three of this month’s pieces, I do LOVE two of them! I’ve been wearing at least one of them everyday and even though I don’t want to send these jewels back, I can’t wait to get my next box!

How it works- It’s a monthly subscription costing $19/month. First you create a style profile, which basically consists of a quick survey of what jewelry types, metals, etc. you prefer and a gallery of pictures where you can pick your favorite items. From that profile, three styles are picked just for you and delivered in cute little boxes wrapped up with a ribbon. Now for the fun part… you can wear the jewelry as much as you want and just as easily send them back whenever you want! There’s no timeline, you can get as many or as little boxes as you want a month. As soon as you’re ready to send them back, you drop them in the mail and three more will be sent your way, almost immediately! Fall in love with one (or all) of the items? No prob, keep it! You get 20% off the retail price of any piece in your box to add to your personal collection.


Below is this month’s collection:

February Rocksbox Review 2015

Perry Street Rosalie Crystal RingPerry Street Rosalie Crystal Ring (retails at $52, member price is $41)– For the first time in awhile, I am not completely in love with one of my Rocksbox items. Although this statement ring has an incredible look, the fit was off. It has an adjustable sizer inside the ring that is supposed to make it a perfect fit for everyone, but I found it to do the opposite. Although the inside sizer fit me, the main ring was way too big and the heavy jewels wobbled around whenever I moved my hand. Even though it looked great, I found myself leaving it in my jewelry box every morning because of the sizing issue. I’ll have to send this one back, Rocksbox!

Gorjana Roya Collar NecklaceGorjana Roya Collar Necklace (retails at $93, member price is $74)– Gorjana has become one of my favorite jewelry designers. Their pieces are well-made and you can feel the quality of them as soon as they touch your skin. Although this necklace didn’t wow me at first glance, I found myself layering it with longer gold pendants and wearing it with almost every outfit! It’s delicate and somehow still makes a statement! I definitely recommend gorjana to any girl looking for some delicate gold jewelry and specifically this beautiful Roya Collar necklace!

 

Urban Gem Pave Ball Studs in Gold

Urban Gem Pave Ball Studs in Gold (retails at $60, member price is $48)– What’s not to love about these sparkly pave studs? These earrings are simple and gorgeous! Although I think they pair perfectly with a preppy sweater and jeans, they can easily be dressed up or down and worn with almost anything. I’ve found myself replacing my everyday studs with this more glamorous pair for work, date night and brunch. I’m still debating whether I’ll send this pair back or not, what do you think?

August RocksBox Review

Happy Friday! Thanks to my friend Claire, I have a new fun service to share with you called RocksBox! She recently sent me a promo for one free month, so I thought… why not give it a try?

Here’s how it works. It’s a monthly subscription of $19.99/ month. First you create a style profile, which basically consists of a quick survey of what jewelry types, metals, etc. you prefer and a gallery of pictures where you can pick your favorite items. From that profile, three styles are picked just for you and delivered in cute little boxes wrapped up with a ribbon. Now for the fun part, you can wear the jewelry as much as you want and just as easily send them back whenever you want! There’s no timeline, you can get as many or as little boxes as you want a month. As soon as you’re ready to send them back, you drop them in the mail and three more will be sent your way. Fall in love with one of the items? No prob, keep it! You get 20% off the retail price of any piece in your box to add to your permanent collection.

What I really love about RocksBox is the flexibility it offers. It allows you to experiment with your style risk-free! You can try out new trends and colors in the comfort of your own home and send back what doesn’t work. You also have the flexibility to update your style profile and review each item you receive to give the stylists a better idea of what you want in the future. So far, the stylists have been spot on with their selecetions for me! Ready to see what I got in my first RocksBox?

RocksBox 2

 

House of Harlow 1960 Five Station Necklace in Black ($60)– I love this necklace; it’s actually one of the styles I favorited in my style profile! I’ve been eyeing this piece on piperlime for over a year, so I was thrilled to see it included in my RocksBox! It’s simple and elegant. I love the geometric look and the leather details. It’s super versatile and I know I will get a ton of use out of it.

RocksBox 3

 

Urban Gem Dahlia Earrings in Mint ($45)– The stylists hit the nail on the head with these earrings. They are so much fun and definitely something I would pick out for myself. I love the mint color, the diamond shape and the dramatic feel of them. These earrings are a statement piece so I love the idea of switching them out with a new style after getting a few uses out of them. This is where I think RocksBox makes the most sense, lending me things I would love to try out for a few weeks and easily send back for something new!

RocksBox 5

 

CC Skye Mini Spike Gold Bracelet ($110)– This bracelet might be my favorite of the three pieces! It looks great layered with my other bangles and its small spikes give it a subtle edge. It would be a great staple for my growing collection of arm candy! There’s only one drawback, the price. Although great quality, it’s the priciest of all three options in my box, coming in at $88 (after the 20% off membership discount). For me it’s not worth the price, but I will enjoy it until I decide to send my box back!
