Since I finally wrapped up my 2016 posts, it’s time for me to pick my favorite 16 items from all of my 2016 Sub boxes. With so many different boxes and cool items, it was hard to narrow it down. They are simply in chronological order.
JANUARY
Popsugar Must Have: January 2016
Blue Sky Day Designer Weekly Planner (Suggested Retail: $15.99 (now reduced))
I loved this planner and was so bummed that I couldn’t find the exact same one for 2017. They need to keep making it!
MARCH
Rachel Zoe Box of Style: Spring 2016
LSTN Sound Co. Wembley Earbuds (Retail: $99.00)
These are adorable and so comfortable. I wore them so much they kind of started falling apart. But even though they look a bit worse for the wear, they still sound great!
Julep Maven: March 2016 – The Lighten Up Collection
Trudy: (Retail $14.00/Maven Price: $11.20)
I love this color so much, that I’m painting my kitchen cabinets a similar shade.
Popsugar: March 2016
Nanette Lepore Classic Rose Gold Watch (Suggested Retail: $55.00)
Loved the color combination of pale strap, rose gold and white lock face. It’s elegant and chic.

MAY

A cool way to wear perfume + a scent I could wear without getting a headache?
It was like a miracle.
JUNE
Orglamix Glam Box: June 2016
Perfume Palette – Fresh picked fruit (Estimated Retail: $21.00)
Solid perfumes don’t get nearly enough play. They are great to keep in your bag and this one had 3 different scents that were all delicious and fun to layer.
JULY
Rachel Zoe Box of Style: Summer 2016
DreamDry The Dream Turban (Retail: $30.00)
I use this almost every day. They need to start making them in white.
SEPTEMBER
Orglamix Glam Box: September 2016 Moroccan Hammam

This shade was so lovely with just the right amount of shimmer, that I found myself reaching for it over and over again.
OCTOBER

These headphones are gorgeous and super comfortable.

This bracelet is great for layering or dressing up or down. I found myself reaching for this all during the week as it paired perfectly with all my work outfits.
Popsugar: October Must Have Box

I love diner style mugs and grabbed another of these at a huge discount during a Popsugar boutique sale.

Popsugar: December 2016 Must Have Box
Odeme Catchall & Ring Dish (Suggested Retail: $67)

OVERALL
Most Consistent: Orglamix Glam Box.
They always had something surprising and stuck really well the box theme and what I feel their subscriber is expecting.
Best Value: Rachel Zoe Box of Style.
$100 is steep but the quality of items and their value is usually 4 times that. They include luxury brands and a lot of exclusive items.
My 2016 Favorite: Popsugar Must Have
I really love the lifestyle items that Popsugar offers. You get your beauty fix, plus great home finds and cute surprises.
It’s also important to note that Popsugar’s customer service has greatly improved and they’ve started offering their long-time customers more promotions.
