- I feel like I look like a man
from the '80s wearing a turtle neck with a chain over it.
(bass thumping beat)
So subscription boxes, I feel like,
have gotten pretty big over the last year or so
and we've tried out a few on this channel,
but we have never tried jewelry boxes.
Me and jewelry have a weird relationship.
I like it, but I kind of want someone
to tell me how to wear it
and I feel like these subscription boxes will help me
with that because they're just gonna give me like two
or three items and be like go.
So I'm gonna order one month of these boxes
and I'm gonna wear one look a day and see what people think.
See if I feel like it can up my jewelry game
or whether it's just kind of like a bit of waste of money.
With no further ado,
let's see which ones I'm gonna subscribe to
and we can go through that process together.
Glamour Jewelry is $29.95 a month.
It says retail value of $75 plus.
This one looks super cute and it has good ratings.
You can't choose if you have earrings or not,
which isn't a problem for me,
but could be if you don't have ear holes.
So this one is Bijoux Box and it's the most expensive,
I'm assuming the jewelry's probably a lot higher quality,
but it doesn't say anywhere how much it's worth.
You get three stylish jewelry pieces plus a bonus item.
So it asks if you want earrings, which is good
and it asks for your ring size.
So our final box is called Rocksbox
and this is the one that you actually have
to send the jewelry back every month,
which sounds slightly irritating,
but it does give you a chance
to wear like nicer jewelry for a cheaper price.
It looks like it's gonna ask you some questions about
what kind of style you like.
It's probably gonna get you more tailored pieces.
Oh and you can click I don't want earrings so that's cool.
So they're all ordered and I looked at how long they take
to come and some of them do take longer than others.
So if you wanna order them for a certain occasion,
you want to check out how long they take to ship first.
So it's the next and there has been a development.
I checked my email this morning
and Glamour Jewelry emailed me to say that this month,
you can choose a statement necklace.
All right, let's see what do we have.
Bold and gold, simple statement, that one's cute,
rockin' crystal, rockin' pink, and dainty rhinestone.
I'll go midway into craziness and choose this one.
I have no idea how to style it,
but that's part of this video.
Hello! Me again.
I got another email this time, it's from Rocksbox.
I can, if I want, switch out any pieces I don't like.
I could just let them surprise me,
but I think I'm go in and I'm gonna see
what they're gonna get me.
Oh my God, it's so cute.
It's a little leaf necklace.
Oh I'm not sure about that.
Pfft well, glad I saw this, I'm gonna switch this out.
There's like so much stuff here.
I'm gonna go with this because
that is the only gold bracelet that can go
with the fact that I have a necklace and earrings.
Well the boxes have arrived.
Let's just talk about the packaging.
This is the Bijoux Box.
This is probably my least favorite packaging,
just cause it's a little meh, it's you know, it's whatever.
This one is very cute.
It's more like dainty.
And I also really like Rocksbox cause you get a bow.
For today, I'm just gonna look at Glamour Box.
Maybe should have thought about this earlier
because I don't have any scissors.
(keys jangling)
Oh, there's a hand written note.
That is so cute.
Awww, I love cute stuff if you hadn't noticed.
Here's the first thing.
It's a little bracelet.
Super easy to wear, I'm not nervous about wearing this.
Oh I love it.
I hope I can wear all this in one day
because like that's the idea that I'm gonna try
and wear them all together.
Earrings!
I wouldn't necessarily have chosen a style
that has like so many circles on it,
but this is how you get outside your comfort zone.
I don't know how they're gonna go down
with the statement necklace because that'll be a lot.
Wow!
That is pretty cool.
Everything looks nice quality.
I'm gonna put it all on and we'll see what it looks like.
I feel like I look like a man
from the '80s wearing a turtle neck
with a chain over it.
It's too much going on.
I think this is as close as I'm going to get
to something that I feel comfortable in
and that I think I like.
I do have the earrings in,
but I don't know because I'm not good
with jewelry if this is too much or not.
All right well let's get to work and see what people think.
Do you notice anything different about me today?
- Yes, you're wearing a lot more jewelry
than you usually do.
- I mean that necklace is like pretty blingy.
- You don't wear this jewelry as much.
- There you go! - Is that it?
- You look like especially put together.
- I don't know.
You just look like a fashionable rich person.
- I really love the necklace.
It looks, don't take this the wrong way,
more expensive than usual.
- I love these items.
- So I definitely feel more fancy today.
I really like the necklace, I'm getting used to it now
and this dress I don't usually wear too so.
Whole thing is just like leveling me up a bit.
So this one's $29.95 a month
and you get three pieces of jewelry every month.
- Took me aback, I would spend $29 a month on jewelry.
- Sign me up.
I really enjoy like jewelry especially gold jewelry.
- So it's the end of the day
and I've got to say I really liked this box.
I would actually wear all the jewelry again.
It is day two and I'm doing Rocksbox today,
which is the one that you are just renting.
Pretty, I didn't realize that you can actually swap
out the jewelry anytime you want.
It's a monthly price,
but you can get more than three things a month.
Purchase your faves with your monthly $21 membership credit.
You get a discount on your favorite items,
if you actually want to buy them.
Let's get into it.
(gasps)
Oh yeah I chose this I forgot.
Yeah, it's all right.
Obviously this is only one month,
so it could definitely get better as time goes on.
I don't know how to open this.
Yeah this is super cute.
I will say I don't know enough about jewelry
to know why this is more expensive than any other jewelry.
I think maybe it's just cause it's like a brand.
Last, but not least.
The colors in these are really, really cool.
I think everything can be worn together.
All right let's try and choose an outfit.
So the problem with today is that it's cold
and I want to wear a big (blip) coat
and I feel like this looks very summer like.
I think I'm going to have to try harder.
I might be a little chilly, but I think this works better
and here are the earrings.
They're very subtle.
Even though they don't super match,
at least they're both gold.
I don't think anyone will be like,
"Oh my god why are you wearing these two things together?".
Literally it's raining so much
and I'm there wearing like a frickin summertime necklace.
- They look nice and I like that it's a leaf
and then this bracelet kind of looks like bamboo-ish.
So it gives kind of like a tropical-esque vibe.
- Not necessarily like cohesive.
- Feels like something I had when I was like 15.
- [Chloe] Definitely more expensive than that.
- I guess it looks like less mature than the look yesterday.
- I personally think that these all look,
a little more expensive than like a Forever 21 purchase.
I'm enjoying trying it out.
- [Chloe] It's $150 for all three in total.
- Fuck.
- Oh my gosh.
It's just I don't think anything's necessarily super unique.
- I think $21 is reasonable considering pricing the pieces.
- I don't think subscription boxes for jewelry are for me
because when I pick out my jewelry, I'm very specific,
but I feel like if you're just trying new things,
that's good.
- I can't imagine always wearing rented stuff
because I always have that fear that I'm gonna lose it.
I really like the fact
that you can swap out the pieces however many times you want
because that means you always have a new look.
I also appreciated the amount of things
that they asked you about your styles
to get an idea of what you like.
It is the final day and it is Bijoux Box time.
This one you can keep the jewelry.
Ooooh, pretty.
Oh yeah, I get free earrings with this one.
They're a little too sophisticated for me,
but I mean they're free.
This doesn't match the box.
Wow all their bags are different colors.
I get a free bag too.
This is the most expensive one.
I guess throwing in freebies is a nice touch.
Fashion can be bought, style must be, what?
Style, one must possess.
Let's open the bags.
This is a bracelet.
It's silver, I definitely prefer gold.
This is cute though.
Just the style of it sort of says night time to me,
but you know what, I don't wear enough jewelry,
so maybe I should amp it up.
Necklace?
I'm moved to say?
This unfortunately is not my style at all.
I'm wondering if this box is more for kind
of like a more sophisticated older crowd.
Ah, my first ring.
What these are earrings, these aren't rings.
(sad low tuba)
- Not really for me.
I will still wear it and I will still see
what my peers think because maybe I'm wrong.
One thing I will say though is that everything
is coordinating, which is the first box to have done that.
All right, let's choose an outfit.
I'm having such a hard time
because all of my shit is way too casual
and it doesn't work with like a pendant.
Now for the jewelry on it,
actually might just wear this sweater with it.
This sweater kind of like goes.
I like the earrings a little more now they're on.
Oh and I have on black pants for sophistication.
I definitely look very regular,
office-work, appropriate today.
- Right away, I like the other day I saw better.
It's a long chain.
I feel like we don't really wear long necklaces.
- This one seems a little more understated
than the other ones.
If I'm gonna get a subscription box,
I want stuff that's like bold.
- It's just not your style and it's not your age demo.
- It feels a little bit dated.
It feels a little like corporate.
- It's all just to each their own
because someone will think that that's worth
the $40 whatever.
- So I feel bad that I didn't wear anything,
but a sweater with this jewelry,
but I honestly just didn't have anything
that would go with it.
- [Coworker] Wow we just found out that this was peeling.
- [Chloe] Look it's a sticker, it's not jewels.
- [Coworker] There's nothing on this side
and it's just a sticker.
- [Chloe] Take back the thing
that it is probably nice quality and worth $40 a month.
I did want to like change up how I wear jewelry
with this challenge, but I just feel like I wanted it
to be like more statement pieces
and like stuff that's a little more high fashion,
than Bijoux Box was.
I think it would work really well for certain people,
but it wasn't for me and I think the price is too high.
I really, really did like that Glam Box one
and I really actually might think about buying it.
So I feel like I'm gonna be wearing
a lot more statement necklaces going forward
and I'm not as scared to wear them anymore.
So yay.
(upbeat techno claps)
