The Fancy ~ Jennifer Love Hewitt ~ August 2013
If you read my last post about my JLH box you’ll recall I joked I’d get it in August. NO JOKE First of all my first box hadn’t even arrived (ordered in April) and I was charged for June’s box on May 30th.
I finally got a hold of a human and she gave me the canned I’m so sorry speech and we’ll send it out straight way. 21 days later it showed up. :-/ Once again not impressed with my box. I will NEVER order from Fancy again.
Here is what I waited eons for…
Babycakes Waffle Stick Maker (I do like this I’ll admit and it will get used by other members of my household)
PINK Nylon Pack Cloth Gym Bag
Book ~ Cupcakes and Cashmere by Emily Schuman
Interlink Hematite Cuff. Doesn’t fit my fat wrists. 🙁
I paid for this box on my own and my sour opinions are 100% mine. ~D
The Fancy ~ Jennifer Love Hewitt
This is not my month for subscription boxes! *sigh*
Back in late April I subscribed to The Fancy ~ Jennifer Love Hewitt. I had a coupon code, thank goodness. I only paid $25 + shipping instead of the full $39.99.
I just got the box TODAY. I know wah me, I had to wait. I hate waiting LOL. The Fancy is good at making us wait. It made me think something good was in store for me. Umm not so much.
“In-ear headphones are always falling out of my ears. Always. Not anymore, though. I switched to what I call “real” headphones – Verse Headphones by Urban Beatz. The sound is amazing, they are super comfortable and they stay on my ears 100% of the time.”
“Even in the summertime, nights get cold and my chilly weather dilemma is always how to keep warm without looking like a dork. This fluorescent orange cuffed beanie does the trick every time. I love it!”
“I’ve noticed that most things tagged ‘classic’ are simple in design, which is probably what first drew me to these Simple Wayfarers. They’re stylish, offer UV 400 protection and are simple – just the way I like them.”
“Katie Dean designed the Bad to the Bone Turquoise Skulls Bracelet with gold. It’s spectacular and so is her fashion advice: ‘Don’t be afraid to put your individual spin on your look, express what you want to express and own it.’ Amen.”
For most people I guess this wouldn’t be a bad box. It’s just not for me. I expected more for what I paid. I should have known better. I cancelled, but not before they could charge me for June’s box, which I’m sure I’ll get in August!
*NEW* The Fancy ~ Jennifer Love Hewitt

Are you going to sign up for this box? I’m so curious about what will be in this box!
The Fancy ~ P!nk Edition
I subscribed to a box curated by P!nk from The Fancy. I used a discount code for $25 off 1 box. This is an expensive subscription, normally $39 plus S&H. I was beyond excited for this box and it took forever to get here! Close to a month from the order date.
The box arrived with P!nk Fancy printed on the outside, so I thought, this should be cool. Upon opening, basically all the products were just thrown into an oversized box with a single piece of tissue paper was thrown on top. I am guessing since there was nothing real breakable in it, there was no need to pack it carefully, but still. It was a hot mess!
Still wanting to believe this box would be amazing I continued on….
There were note cards that were printed with the item description and a photo of it. Nothing from Pink explaining why she chose the product or anything. I have a real hard time buying the idea she had anything to do with this box, actually.
Casino Bottle Opener from Kikkerland:
The one I received was an ace of spades, in stainless steel. It’s pretty heavyweight, we will get minimal use out of it. We’ve been known to partake of a beer now and again, but it isn’t anything we would ever pick out as something we “fancy”.
Atlas of Remote Islands Book:
American Apparel T-Shirt:
Navy blue printed with white “Beautiful things happen when you distance yourself from the negative shit.” The shirt is super soft, but super small. It’s a medium. I wear a 2XL. 🙁
These are like crayons, and have a clickable push up for more of the paint – made of paraffin, glycerin, petrolatum (bad) and some other chemicals. I might keep them for Halloween?
In addition, there was a coupon for $20 off CanvasPop that I probably won’t use, but you never know.
After opening the box and going through the contents, I canceled. Immediately. This was by far the worst box I have ever received, and I do not plan on getting another one from Fancy. You would think with P!nk there would have been some really fun things in the box..as a spokeswoman for Cover Girl, we could have gotten some cosmetics, her own music free downloads would have cool, or even a funky piece of jewelry or clothing. This was lame and not what I would have expected. BOOOOOOOOO TO FANCYBOX!
