Rocksbox is like Netflix for jewelry. For $19 a month, you can receive 3 pieces of jewelry to borrow or purchase.
First, fill out a style profile and pick some items for your wishlist and Rocksbox will send you 3 pieces within a week.
You can hold on to the pieces as long as you want and send them back when you're ready for 3 new pieces.
If you want to purchase one (or more) of the pieces, you can, at an "insiders' price" which is about 25% off. You also receive $10 of "shine spend" every month. You can apply the $10 to any piece you decide to keep.
The $10 shine spend goes away at the end of the month and does not carry over to the next month, however, each new month brings $10 of shine spend!
If you are interested in trying one month free, let me know! I can provide you with personal tips on the service as well as a code!
My first box was pretty good! I had been on the hunt for the perfect statement necklace. I didn't want to spend a lot of money but I didn't want it to look too cheap. This one was perfect! The price was good too. Since I used a code for my first month to be free, I got $10 off in shine spend.
Unboxing and details coming soon!
Tip: Start your subscription in the MIDDLE of the month since the shine spend replenishes every month, you can get at least two boxes, and the shine spend will cover the $19 monthly fee (IF you decide to purchase at least one item from each box!)
My second box was nice, but the stylist seemed to have gotten my wishlist confused with someone else's. I thought I would get at least one item on my wishlist (REALLY wanted a Loren Hope cuff or statement ring!) and my stylist thought she was able to fulfill one of my wishes; only, I never wished for the item.
Unboxing and details coming soon!
My 3rd box was pretty awesome! I wore all 3 pieces and would have kept it all, except 1. Rocksbox doesn't offer any additional discount if you purchase all 3 (Rocksbox, if you're reading this, you should consider this suggestion!) 2. I found one of the items on another website for $10 less. When I reached out to Rocksbox, they were super fast and nice about it, but told me they could not price match the particular website. They did mention that I would be saving $10 on the item anyway if I used my "shine spend." I did not want to use my shine spend on the item I could get (brand new) for $10 less on another site! and 3., Although I absolutely LOVED the necklace, the chain was very dark, I'm guessing from all the wear it gets from being passed around? Anyhow, the photo on their website shows a brighter gold chain and in this case, I would prefer getting a new or newer piece.
The good thing about Rocksbox is that you can try these pieces and see how it works in your wardrobe. You can also see how the piece wears, as in, with time. As I mentioned, the chain on the necklace gets very dark after a while. This worked for me, as I like a darker look to my metals, but I wasn't sure I was ready to spend the money at this time. You can also request pieces again, so I will probably be testing this option somewhere down the line.
