Everything shipped in a large green box.
First Look
Every box comes with an information guide. You receive detailed information about every item in the box, along with information about the artisans who make the items.
Caftan, India $50.00 This caftan shipped to subscribers in one of two colors (mint or pink). This is made in India through the company, Symbology. GlobeIn featured the artisan Pooja. She has been working for the company for more than three years. Her father died four years ago, so she works to support her mother and brother. She is quite talented and works on several productions steps to make this caftan.
This is designed to be worn as a cover up at the beach, or you can wear it as a regular top. It's one size (Length 29 inches, Chest – 21 inches), so it's designed to be worn large and flowing. The fabric is crepe rayon, perfect for summer (if it ever gets here).
This is a closer look at the print. The pattern is all hand printed.
Pineapple Ring, Bali $25.00, adjustable size This brass ring was made by local artisans in Bali. It's adjustable, but I like it on my pinkie finger. The ring is all crafted by hand, which involves cutting the brass, soldtering, sanding and polishing.
The ring also came with a $15 code to use at 31bits.com. I checked out the website and they have several cute pieces of jewelry. The coupon code will let you get a free item, but you will have to pay $6.00 shipping. There might be tiered shipping, but I only calculated it for a purchase less than $20.
Coconut Hand & Body Cream, Togo $3.00 I always carry a huge thing of handcream in my purse. This 2 oz size is perfect for on the go. It's made with unrefined wet-milled coconut oil, reishi, shea and kpagnan to moisturize your skin, without using harsh ingredients. It has a nice coconut scent. I don't like to eat coconut, but I enjoy the smell. The company who makes this lotion, Alaffia gives back to help the health of newborns and they plant trees to prevent deforestation.
Palm Leaf Clutch, Mexico $20.00 This palm leaf clutch is the perfect accessory to go with the caftan. It's made by the same artisans that have crafted the palm leaf baskets for Globin.
Clutches typically don't hold much, but this one holds a fair amount of items.
Glee Gum, United States $1.00 Glee gum is 100% natural and sugar free. It's made from chicle, which comes from the sapodilla tree in Central America. By using chicle, the chiclero works get stable. I received the flavor cinnamon, which taste just as you would expect.
Bonus Items
Keyfob (assorted colors) by Adelante Shoe company I needed this keyfob! My husband has received a few in boxes, but I haven't. I am always losing my keys. This was made by Adelante Shoe company, who makes shoes for women and men. They have some really cute styles.
You can easily unsnap it to attach it to your keys. There was supposed to be a $50 code off a pair of shoes, but I didn't see that in my box.
Wallet Guide to Ethical Fashion and Pin from Remake This guide helps to remind us to make conscious decisions when we select fashion pieces. They strive for people to select clothing for companies that respect women. The pin says “wear your values”.
Final Thought: This box was beautifully curated and it had a total value of $99.00, which doesn't include any of the gift cards. The caftan was my favorite item in the box, and I will be rocking it this summer. I also thing that clutch is super cute and will look great with a floral dress.
