My October Julep Bombshell Maven Box ~ Unwrapped

Hi lovelies!  I'm pretty excited about this month's Julep Maven Box, I opted for the Bombshell profile again this month because I instantly fell in love with 'Cleopatra', the black latex polish.  If you're not familiar with the Julep Maven box, you take a quiz to determine your profile, and for $19.99 a month, you get nail polish (and beauty products!) from the higher end Julep brand (sold at Sephora), with a retail value of at least double (usually more than that!) {the polishes alone retail for $14 each}. If you haven't, click on one of my links and sign up! And right now, sign up and enter promo code FREEBOX to get your first box for free, just pay $3.99 shipping. The best part is that they show you what you'll be getting each month, so you have a 5 day window to either switch to a different profile (there's 5!) or skip the month altogether and not be charged. Genius! 

So this month's box contained as mentioned, 'Cleopatra', which they call a black latex, but it's a semi-matte finish to give it that latex / rubbery look.  Love.  I also received 'Valerie', a beautiful deep teal with a gold microglitter shimmer.  The beauty product this month was this genius dual ended kohl eye pencil (and sharpener!); black on one end, a shimmery brown on the other!  Brilliant!

What was in your Maven box?

DIY Stella McCartney Inspired Holographic Phone Pouch

Hi lovelies!  I've been busy with 2 sick kiddos, but finally have a chance to post this amazing DIY!  Inspired by two different Stella McCartney products (this holographic phone pouch, and the Falabella chain trimmed bags), this hybrid is so fabulous!  And not to mention, it's from the same sheet of holo vinyl I used to make this cuff bracelet - with some still left for yet another project!  An amazing $1.79 well spent if I do say so myself.  {Click for the how-to!}
