A few years ago I believe in Summer of 2017 Gucci came out with a collection of bags, shoes, with the Bengal tiger on it, I didn’t find out about the bags until last year. I had been searching second websites such rebag, fashionphile, and ebay looking for the bag. I knew I wanted either the Boston Bag or the tote. Earlier this year I found the Boston Bag for sale in excellent condition on the Rebag site so I bought it there.
Then about a week I was browsing on Nordstorms website I saw some things from Ted Baker that I had to have in the Houdini Print, the cat in the print is a Jaguar, I did look it up to make sure. The funny thing is Im not a big fan of cats, I prefer dogs specifically German Shepards, I do have one. I just really like tiger prints on the bag, it made it look unique. Im really fond of animal prints, or animal shaped jewelry, so in future posts it will be a reoccurring theme. From Nordstorm I originally purchased the large nylon tote, I had to take back and get the smaller one. When I showed the nylon tote my husband he laughed, he was like that is kind of big. When he saw the smaller one he said that was more reasonable. I also bought the clutch, and the large makeup bag. I tried to buy the flip flops but my order was canceled due to lack of inventory, I found them on ebay. Most of the collection is sold out unfortunately.
Here is the Clutch
The Tote Bag
The Makeup Case
The Shoes
I also picked two more things from Nordstorm a Ted Baker Phone case its very cute, and a pair Botkier shoes they are platform oxford style shoes in the color metallic rose metallic. I like the oxford style of shoes because they look professional and stand out at work.
I started subscribing to the Fab Fit Fun boxes back in October of last year, so my first box was the Fall 18 one with the Vince Camuto tote in brown. I was not sure when I got the first box how much I would use the products that were inside the box. To my surprise I find that I use most of the products that I get in each box, with some exceptions. In one box I got the swell water bottle, I don’t use all that much, sadly it stays in one of the pockets of swiss gear backpack for work. As I write this I realize that I don’t drink a ton of water, I should drink more than I am currently, and my work place provides free water.
In the Summer box I received several things I’m already using, I also had two add-ons to my package which was the Ciate Astrolights Jewelled Palette, and the Butter London Gel Highlighter in Champagne.
VIX Paula Hermanny
Lotus Towel- This one of the first things I took out of the box, I was kind of
surprised to get a towel in the box, its not something I was expecting. I think
its meant to be more of a beach towel, I use it as a regular towel. Being in
Southern Ohio there are hardly any beaches around me unless you want to go the
lake, Im not down for that. I ended up liking the towel its very cute.
Summer
& Rose Diamond Toted
This is a nice summery tote, Im actually using the bag as my everyday bag. The bag is pretty sturdy and it holds quite a bit. It fits my I Pad Pro the 12.9 inch one, I don’t have to many bags or totes in my collection that would fit my Ipad. I could also fit my laptop too that’s to much weight in one bag to carry around. I take my ipad to work, I have the apple pencil that goes with it, its wear I take all my notes on my ipad. I take two foreign languages, and Im going through firewall training currently. I was happy the bag was big enough for my ipad. I occasionally put my ipad in my backup with my work laptop and it hurts my back. This tote is sturdy, and the handles are very soft.
Odeme
What a Pair of 2 Silicone Wine Glasses
The ones I received the box were pink, they have a strong plastic smell when I opened them, I find that the scent goes away some after washing them. I washed mine with some Dawn and hot water, then I poured myself some Barefoot Pink Moscato wine. I’m taking them out next week with me to a 4th of July party that I always go to. I like that the glasses are silicone it makes them very durable and very portable friendly.
Intelligent
Nutrients Refining Micro polish
This a plant based micro polish, I like using skincare with plant-based ingredients, I don’t believe in harming helpless animals. I have tried this out a few times, it has jojoba beads in it which help exfoliate the skin, the beads are very gentle on the skin. I also have sensitive skin so I found that this didn’t break me out. If you have sensitive skin this would be a good fit for you.
Invisibobble Original
Duo Pack
I had seen these before in another magazine before and wanted to try them, but I could never find them where I live. So I was excited to get these in the box, they work really well especially since I have really thick hair.
Generation Clay
Ultra Brightening Face Purple Clay Face Mask-
I only tried this once it burned my skin immediately, I tried it again last night and it still burned my skin I don’t know why exactly. Im going to take a closer look at the ingredients to try to figure out why it burned my skin. This is odd I have tried dozens of skin care products, there have only been a random few that have burned my skin.
Grace and Stella
Rose Facial Spray
It’s a nice light spray that gives your face instant hydration.
Whish Exfoliating Foot Mask- I havent used it yet, I don’t have an opinion on yet. I did smell it, and it smelled like coconuts. I like anything that smells tropical especially during the summer.
Ciate Astrolights
Jewelled Palette- I seen this palette and the Astrolights Burnt palette, I
really liked both of the palettes. When I saw the Jewelled Palette on sale I
bought it, I intend to get the burnt palette too. I wore one of the shadows
from the palatte today to work, its really pigmented and has great staying
power, the shadows lasted more than eight hours on me with little fading.
Butter London Highlighting Gel in Champagne- Its beautiful lightweight highlighter, to me it seems like it has more of golden sheen, I find that the name Champagne doesn’t fit the product. When I think of champagne I think of a golden beige color.
Cuccio Cooling
Spot Therapy- This was the mystery item in my box. It says that its supposed to
relieve tension and stress after a long day. It’s a lightweight formula with
peppermint and green tea. The instructions say you can rub it on the back of
your neck and your temples. I use it at night after I get off work, when I lay
down on my pranamat, and I find it to be very relaxing.
These are the items I got in my box for Summer 19 what did you get in yours. Happy Friday Im glad it’s the weekend even though the heat index here in Southern Ohio is 95.
