2 Amazing Subscription Boxes!

I wanted to share 2 amazing subscription boxes that I’ve enjoyed using last month!

Box #1: Norlii June Box

I love a box that allows people to experience different cultures without having to leave their home.  Norlii is a bimonthly Scandinavian Subscription Box shipping directly from Scandinavia, that features home decor and lifestyle accessories.  The theme of this box was Tivoli, which is a 175-year-old amusement park located in the heart of Copenhagen, Denmark.  The park features rides, attractions, beautiful gardens, and peacocks that roam free.

Product Review Roundup: May

I am always on the lookout for products that travelers will love and will make their travels easier. Come on…travel can be stressful, so anything that makes life easier is welcomed. Each month I will do a roundup of products I’ve found and test them out to see if they’re something I would actually use. This is actually May’s list, but I’m a few days behind because I’ve been stuck in bed for the last three days because of the mother-of-all kinks in my neck. Here’s what I found this month:

Arcopedico Shoes


WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM: These are one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes I own and I’ve been bringing them with me everywhere I’ve been traveling.  They are lightweight so I can throw them in my carry-on and they are easy to remove when I’m going through security. They are also super cute and the grey color goes with everything.  I normally wear a size 8 ½ and I got the size 40 but wish I’d gotten the 39 because it is a little big on me.

Smartass and Sass…March Box

Once again…if you are not a fan of cursing, you may want to skip this piece because the items in this box have been known to drop some f-bombs…lol!  This is my new favorite subscription because it reminds me of my friends and I when we get together without kids!  It is a perfect balance of snark and charm, with a dash of profanity!  That’s SO US!!! Smartass and Sass is an amazing way to treat yourself every month!

What comes in each box?

Each box has 5-8 handmade, hilarious items. The items have a and all of the items will relate to it. It includes things like mugs, notebooks, tote bags, water bottles, pens & pencils, magnets, candles, etc.  It has items you probably would never buy yourself but secretly wish someone would buy for you.  It reminds me of getting a care package from your best friend.

We couldn’t wait to peek inside!

So, what was in the box this month? SO MUCH!!!

Smartass and Sass Subscription Box

Smartass and Sass Subscription Box

Warning to my dad…if you’re going to read this, be prepared there are going to be many curses in this piece…lol.  I found a box that I can’t stop telling all my friends about because the items in the box remind me of my friends and I after we’ve been drinking!  It is a perfect balance of snark and charm, with a dash of profanity!  That’s SO US!!! Smartass and Sass is an amazing way to treat yourself every month…and who deserves it more than you?

The creators of the box, Kim and Abby, seem like my kind of people. They call themselves silly weirdos that love to laugh…and they know every word to Wedding Crashers! Don’t they sound fun?!

What comes in each box?

Each Smartass and Sass box has 5-8 handmade, hilarious items. The items have a theme and all of the items relate to it. It includes things like mugs, notebooks, tote bags, water bottles, pens & pencils, magnets, candles, etc.  It has items you probably would never buy yourself but secretly wish someone would buy for you.  It reminds me of getting a care package from your best friend.


My theme was I LOVE ME

So, what did I get?  I can’t wait to show you!!

Arcopédico Shoes…The Perfect Travel Shoe

Occasionally, I come across a product that I feel I HAVE to share with you.  I wanted to show you my new favorite travel shoe.  It is from a company called Arcopédico.  They have been creating handmade shoes in Portugal since 1966 and are now available in over 40 countries.  Yeah Portugal!!

Sanaya Set

 

What do I love about this box?

Since I have two girls, I find it a huge responsibility to empower them to know they are fierce, compassionate, and can do anything they put their minds to.  I love that Sanaya Set, a seasonal subscription box, has a high set of values that mirror my own.  Their company was founded on the premise that each of us can make a positive impact and determine our own future. They feel strongly about intersectional feminism: understanding our overlapping identities and how these factors impact the way we experience oppression and discrimination.

Empowered women empower women!

This is one of the key morals I hope to teach my girls…always build up other women and never push them down. 

What does Sanaya mean?

Sanaya is named after Tarul’s daughter, and it means

 DISTINGUISHED, DIFFERENT IN A GREAT WAY.

Buddhi Box

Buddhi Box

 

What do I love about this box?

Buddhi Box is one of the few subscription boxes I actually subscribe to, and I can barely wait each month for my box to show up! It’s a great reminder to be present and take some time for myself once in a while. Each box focuses on the yoga principles of

COMPASSION, UNITY, DISCOVERY.

 

What comes in each box?

Each box has 4-6 sample and full-size products that are meant to enhance your yoga practice and lifestyle.  Each month you will receive products that enrich mind, body, and soul.  It may include healthy food, beauty products, and yoga accessories.  I’ve gotten some amazing products such as candles, scarves, bath products, and jewelry.  They often include a crystal or gemstone, which is perfect since my oldest daughter collects them. I love that they think it’s important that their vendor partners support sustainable, eco-friendly, and humane practices.

My Hygge Joy Subscription Box

 

I recently started thinking what my New Year’s resolution was going to be, when I discovered it can all be summed up in one word…HYGGE.  Hygge is a Danish word that is described as a state of being and finding the simple pleasures of everyday life.  That is exactly what I am looking for and My Hygge Joy subscription box helps bring a bit of hygge to your doorstep every month!

What do I love about this box?

My Hygge Joy box brings you items that will inspire, motivate, and remind you to bring hygge into your life and reap the rewards of a cozy content lifestyle.  Products tend to focus on slowing down and living in the moment while noticing the small things around us that bring us joy.  The products in this box are intended to promote pampering, quiet time, and creating comfort in your home.  Can you think of a more fulfilling way to live your life?

What comes in each box?

My Hygge Joy boxes include monthly themed products which may include bath & body items, candles/lights, home décor, books, games, food & drink.

What was in our box? Glad you asked!!!

CLEAN.FIT Subscription Box Review

 

CLEAN.FIT

This summer my family decided to switch to a no sugar, low carb diet and I started to look closely at the ingredients of the snacks I feed my kids.  I was shocked at the amount of sugar and chemicals that are packed into snacks and began looking for healthy alternatives.  CLEAN.FIT subscription box helps you discover new healthy snacks and premium workout enhancing supplements.  Healthy snacks delivered right to your doorstep each month…can it get easier than that?

What do I love about this box?

I love that this company believes you’ll feel a difference almost immediately by practicing the three tenants of wellness: eating clean, staying fit, and practicing self-love.  These are all things we should fit into our lives daily! I must say, I have never felt healthier since I gave up sugar.
