Wantable Subscription Review (Accessories) – September 2015

Disclosure: This review has hyperlinks to Wantable that if you were to sign up through would credit my account $10. I decided to make use of this feature because my wallet is so small but my addiction is so big. If you want you can choose to go to the website without using the link by typing: www.wantable.com

Wantable is  a subscription service that offers a lot of different options. They have clothing, fitness clothing, beauty, intimates, and accessories. This is a review of the accessories subscription which sells for $40 the first month and then $36 each month after. You are able to return items you do not like and have them credit your account which I think it pretty good for this type of box.

I really like that Wantable allows you to ask for what you want (so it pays to check out a lot of reviews so you can see if anything looks good to you), return items, and it shows up at the start of the month.

Surprise! I forgot to skip this month!

The packaging is different. They no longer have the bags. I personally prefer the bags to these but I don’t care about it a HUGE amount or anything.

Brady Necklace Multi: I was thought this was called “Brandy” and almost emailed Brandy from Hello Subscription about it because who doesn’t like weird fan girls emailing them about stuff you could care less about? Right?

This necklace is super cute and I love that they went with a triple mixed metal look. Usually I get a duel piece but this piece will allow me to REALLY mix and match my stuff!

The style tip is to “wear with a bold lip color!” I am going to wear this with heavy eye make up and a joker wine smile!

Austin Earring Set G: I am not a huge fan of these earrings. I don’t like that one looks like the end of a nail. Did you know as a college student I actually spent months analyzing nails from different times in history and can bore you to literal tears of silent anguish about the subject? You didn’t? Well ask about my earrings while I am wearing these and you just might!

The style tip says to “wear with a bold lip!” I am worried that Wantable is not even trying on these style tips or they are really hoping I get popped in the gob while wearing these… maybe both?

Sophie Bracelet Multi: On no planet will this be worth the retail value of $17  that Wantable is trying to tell me is real. However, it is a cute bracelet and again has the multi metal color that I do so enjoy wearing. I guess I will wear this until it turns my arm green.

The style tip is to “layer with your everyday bangles.” Do they mean my Fitbit?

Avril Earrings Multi: Wantable really has taken my multi request to heart this month. I really like them a lot and am hoping I can pull off such bold earrings. Obviously this won’t work for me in the office but I think I can put these on for a happy hour and feel both thrifty and fly.

The style tip is to “pair with a maxi and bomber jacket.” I hope they don’t mean to wear all these together!

Verdict: I would return the bonus earring set but it isn’t really worth the drama of it all. I really like the other pieces I was sent and so it was not the worst surprise ever to find myself getting a box when I thought I had skipped. I hope that I can plan somewhere fun to go this weekend to wear them proudly!

        That is beyond hilarious!!! YES! I will have to add scarves from the year of boxes on all at once and write “new beauty treatment that only requires you sell you first born?!? I’m In!”

        Oooh I love archaeology! I did Anthropology undergrad, but I loved the archaeology classes. I always wonder what people 300 years from now will think of us. Future archaeologists will be like “why do we keep excavating so many coasters from this time period??”

        • October 15, 2015 at 3:43 pm

          Love the coaster comment!!!

        • Subscriptionista

          Lol they loved coaster and scarves!

          I wanted to be an Anthro major but they did not have it at my college so I was a Pysch major. I got a BS degree in Psych I love to say it that because it sounds much wittier especially when I run into the “I went to Haaarvaard” peeps.

          I think you won the post of the week with that coasters comment!

            I was a Psych major too! With a minor in Philosophy… So of course I work in the Financial industry. Lol

        Anthro and Religious Studies double major here! Kinda merged ethnoarchaeology and contemporary social anthropology of neo-paganisms for my focus.

    “…who doesn’t like weird fan girls emailing them about stuff you could care less about?” Are you referring to my fanmail to Pnut about the Little Pnuts box?? 😉

    Love the styling tips… really love you making fun of the styling tips!! lol

    • Subscriptionista
      October 15, 2015 at 11:43 am

      No you’re awesome! Lol I just don’t want to give people the creepy vibe too early ha know? I like to lay it on them slow haha

    • October 15, 2015 at 5:17 pm

      No you rock girl! I think I will definitely look into this I am holding out for a great offer … the box would be a nice treat for my Pnut people I miss Citrus Lane I got an awesome deal many moons ago and they never repeated it!

      We love fan mail at Subscriptionista!

        I haven’t recieved any fan mail but I did get a spammy message from a box… Sigh…

    they totally should name it brandy because a) all subscription box things should be named brandy and b) i loveeeeeee it! i am a huge fan of wantable’s mixed metal looks.

    and i love emails from subscriptionista! who says emailing people on the internet about subscription boxes is weird?? i have the earrings that match that necklace!!!!

    • October 15, 2015 at 3:44 pm

      I believe it. I saw the accessories and thought to myself this is Brandy’s look. We are all fangirsl over here 🙂

      • Subscriptionista
        October 15, 2015 at 5:28 pm

    • Subscriptionista
      October 15, 2015 at 5:27 pm

      lol I have named it the Brandy necklace!

  5. October 15, 2015 at 3:53 pm

    I haven’t purchased a Wantable box in awhile. No more bags? I was thinking that it would have been nice if 5th Avenue had bags similar to Wantable. I love Wantable’s bags.

    I imagine you at the beach wearing a maxi dress and all the jewelry. We want photos!

    • October 15, 2015 at 5:40 pm

      Wantable needs to reissue those 50% off codes again I might snap one up again…

    Yea know I haven’t seen any. I’m thinking about retaking the quiz again… I’m tired of all jewelry

  7. October 15, 2015 at 10:11 pm

    I used to luuuuurve Wantable, but I didn’t like how the accessories were all of dubious quality and origin, and I rarely liked the Intimates items. One pair of Mukluk slippersocks I really like, but they started falling apart quite quickly after I got them! Though, they have such great customer service that I stuck with them for a year.

    Heat, I considered messaging Pnut about the little Pnut box too =) Plus it has an elephant on it for Subbella’s son!

    • October 16, 2015 at 3:16 pm

      <3 this comment! My Pnut people have their own fan club 😀
