My New York Fashion Week Pick for most fun show? @kyboeofficial #KYBOE #KYBOEStyle #NYFW

New York Fashion Week 2016 is in my rearview mirror, and I got to 'front row at the Fashion Show' for quite a few shows this year, but you know it is my custom to share the show I found most unique first.

This year's pick is definitely KYBOE! who offered a very 'timely' show. Pun definitely intended as they are a watch brand!

Want to see how does a 'timepiece' does Fashion Week?

Here are shots of mine in action:

From Left to Right: Three Bloggers Showing off their new KYBOE! Watches, I'm the one in the center, no surprise I picked Rose Gold right? (Notice the Rose Gold Ring). In shot two I'm checking the time, don't want to be late for the show, shot three - the BOWL neon sign is from Lucky Strike where the After Party for the Fashion Show was held (one of the After Parties anyway there were actually TWO) and the last shot was taken at Lucky Strike Bowling Alley pointing to a sign that reads: "Stay Out of The Gutter" - very cheeky!

A Quick Slideshow Video of the Show (using only my own photos) - there are WAY more photos and I promise a Pinterest Board will happen once I come up for air (when it does the words 'Pinterest Board' will actually be clickable)


MY TAKE:

KYBOE! is definitely a brand to watch, their timepieces are fun, unique and fashionable and can easily take you from work to play with ease.

I still prefer a quality watch to checking my cellphone for the time, and I love that KYBOE! Watches come in a wide variety of colors and if you are feeling really fancy you can get the version of the watch that offers crystals around the dial. I also love the one touch button to light the watch up making it easier when you are checking the time in a dark room or out and about at night. (See photo four in the photo collage above - the shot on the far right shows the watch lit).

And aren't you proud of me butterflies? I veered away from selecting the typical 'NY Black' watch. (Honestly I was torn on colors - I also wanted the 'spearmint' color because I have a pair of sneakers in that color - but ultimately went with the White/Rose Gold Option because they match my favorite headphones - remember THESE? - I will take a shot of me with the watch and headphones on at the same time so you can see how cute they go together!)

September @Wantableco #Accessories & #Jewelry Subscription Box Review #Wantable {#Photos}

September Wantable Accessories and Jewelry Subscription Box
Want to try out Trendy Accessories that are delivered fresh right to your door every month? Wantable.com is for YOU!

















My name is Tracy, and I am a 'Subscription-Box-A-Holic', this is where you would say something supportive like 'No worries Tracy, we are too'. But then I'd have to promise to stop and I know I am NOT going to do that!

Un-boxing Subscription Boxes is a tough job, and somebody's gotta do it. I think it only fair it be ME!

For me, Subscription Boxes are like my birthday and Christmas all rolled into one. They are much like snowflakes as so far, no two boxes have been alike (and I try out a ton of them!), which is exactly what I love. I have never had a 'been there, done that' reaction to any box from any service so far.

Last month I opted for the Lingerie box from Wantable.comand this month I am trying out an Accessories Box. I have a confession to make, my first Accessories/Jewelry Box from Wantable wasn't the best experience, but I love that when I told them so, they wanted to make it right. As a consumer that put me at ease. Just like people are advised in dating relationships to test the relationship under a variety of variables before making a full commitment, I liked that they were open to honest feedback and continued working with me until we hit on something that really resonated. That my butterflies is a business you want to patronize. Not everything is wine and roses all the time, it's how it's handled that makes or breaks the experience in my opinion.

I was a bit nervous when this box arrived as the first experience wasn't a total rave, but when I opened this box it was packaged so much differently and more carefully than the first had been. Inside there was an assortment of surprises, all good ones. Let's Dive in:

September Wantable Accesories Box Included:

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Jocelyn Ring - A big bold statement ring that keeps with the Rose Gold Trend!

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Jill Headband - Fabulously Tribal Inspired Headband to take you right into Fall in style! (I wrapped the headband around the box so you could see it better)

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Elise Watch - This Gun-metal colored beauty is bold, trendy and has it's own magnetic closure to adjust to most wrist sizes.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Theresa Bracelet - Mixed Metal with touches of Rose Gold makes this bracelet the perfect partner to the Jocelyn Ring!

My Take:

I haven't quite yet hit on my perfect Wantable Accessories Box yet. I keep putting LOVE on the Statement Necklaces and still haven't been sent any yet, so I am going to have to play with my pre-box survey settings until I finally hit on one. These are definitely items I may not have thought to pick for myself, but I am a huge watch lover so was stoked to see a watch that was also in a color I have never owned in a watch. I love that gunmetal grey color! I love the Tribal Headband and actually have a blouse that matches it, stay tuned for a photo of me wearing it! I have worn the bracelet and ring together also and have received tons of compliments, so I would say SCORE! I do however wish I could try out all four boxes per month because I hated giving up the lingerie box, and now want to try the new Fitness Box to see how it compares to my current fave in the fitness box subscription space, Fab Fit Fun.


I love that Wantable has a little something for everyone, you can get an Accessories Box, an Intimates Box, Makeup Box or Fitness Box! You can go "Forever" and subscribe for $36 a month or you can opt for a "For Now" which is the purchase of a single box for $40. Note that Subscriptions are shipped automatically each month, but they can be skipped or cancelled at anytime and if you get a box and you are not in love? Send your box back for a full refund, no questions asked! Now that is what I call ZERO RISK butterflies! And as no two people are the same, no two boxes are ever the same either, pretty cool right? oh, and did I mention that shipping is free in the United States?

I have to thank this Wantable Box for introducing me to Cate & Chloe Jewelry, I love their pieces as well, and they also have a subscription box so I am going to have to reach out to them for sure!

Which piece resonates most with YOU Butterfly?
