mail order happiness

I’ve been in a fierce, foul mood since I came back from an amazing weekend with friends in NYC (I’ll save that for another blog, including our Tracy Morgan run in.)  I really did have a fantastic time, I think I just went a little too hard and my body’s been responding  with pure bitchiness.   It just happens sometimes, doesn’t it ladies?  My mood lifted a little when I came home and spotted this month’s BIRCHBOX waiting on my doorstep!

Excellent goodies this month.  I’m excited to try the tube mascara, anyone have any feedback?  I really love BIRCHBOX, if you’re unfamiliar check out my post about it from earlier this summer.   It’s a nice little $10 splurge and the products are usually pretty big!

One mail order service I’m not loving lately is Shoedazzle.   I was a fan for awhile but lately my showroom seems to be an endless stream of stripper-esque platform shoes, even after requesting alternates.   Don’t get me wrong, my heart beats fast for a great platform but not all the time.  Also they charged me last month despite the fact I KNOW I clicked skip the month, got the refund but it just makes me a little skeptical.   Again, if this sounds like jibberish, check out my declaration of love for shoedazzle from earlier this year, it breaks down exactly what it is.

Do you have any mail order services that you love?   There are a few for kid’s clothing that I’m considering trying, would love to find out what you love!

Do you think you’d ever try birchbox ?

If you want an edge on all things beauty make sure you’re reading Pampered with Paige she has yet to steer me wrong with beauty posts.   That’s where I found out about my pretty pink box, the best tanning stuff and more, read on up ladies!    A few months ago she mentioned Birch Box.   For a $10 monthly membership you get access to a great site but most importantly a box filled with 4-5 samples delivered monthly…SCORE!   Despite reading about it a few months ago I just signed up so I’m hoping to get my first Birch Box early next month!  Here’s hoping for some great goodies!   Stay cool today 518-ers, hydrate hydrate hydrate!!
