Yeah!  My January 2014 Wantable Intimates box arrived today!  I was hoping the mail would come during nap time, but no such luck.  However, after I picked L up from school and the kids and I made a Starbucks run (to which L asked – “why do we go here everyday”), there it was!

The Box

Wantable ships via USPS First Class Mail.  It took about three days to arrive to me in MI from WI.  I think it was a little delayed this month because of the weather because it usually only takes a day or two at most.

First Look

I was both excited and nervous to open this box up.  I had seen some other January boxes, but was just kind of meh on those.  They looked cute, but just were me.  But this first look made me happy!

Love / Like / Dislike

Just like with the Makeup box, you can select your preferences and tweak them as necessary.  Last month I had somehow checked that I “Dislike” loungewear, which couldn’t be farther from the truth because, umm, I wear it all the time.  And just like with their other boxes, if you aren’t happy you can return them for a full refund!

The Information Card

Wantable sends a printed information card talking about the January box in general and it also includes a listing (with prices) of items in your box.  The information card isn’t overly fancy because everyone’s boxes are customized.  January 2014 Wantable Intimates boxes featured brands such as Betsey Johnson, Steve Madden, ST. EVE, On Gossamer and Ozone.  Here is what I received.

~PACT Navy Bandana Camisole ($12):  The information card lists this as $28, but I found it on sale for $12, so I went with the lesser price.  The not on sale price was $30, so that’s in line with Wantable’s.  Anyway, I love the print on this and wouldn’t mind a pair of pj pants in this print / fabric as well (not to wear together because that might be a bit much).

~Ozone Socks Spotted Skin ($12):  Love!  The crazier the sock the better.  These are fun and soft and totally perfect for lounging around the house.

~Happy Socks Grey / Pink ($14): I received the same style of these socks in last month’s box and loved them.  I love this print even more and probably wouldn’t be sad if they sent me another pair (different print) next month.

~Steve Madden Sleepy Shorts (Maria Pink) ($9.97):  Again, my price is an online Amazon sale price, but I always like to be conservative because if I saw a pair of shorts for $30 (which is the retail price) one place and $9.97 another, well, I know where I would buy them from.  I love these, but will be saving them for the summer because my house (and the weather in general) is freezing!

~Montelle Boyleg Undies (Aqua) ($22):  These are fabulous!  The material is amazing and the style is totally something I would have picked out myself.

All totaled I came up with a total of $69.97 for the January Wantable Intimates Box.  Using retail prices, it’d have a value of $108.  Either way, it was a deal since the box was only $36!  I didn’t think it was possible, but I loved this month even more than I loved last month’s box.

    When I recieved my box, I was pretty meh, but I brightened up after trying everything on. I got the same Grey / Pink Happy Socks, love them!

      They are really cute!

    I am STILL waiting for my box, it has stalled somewhere between sent to clearing and actually shipping out. I received the blue camisole last month and even though it fits snugly (maybe it’s just me) I really like it. Am SO impatient for my box to arrive.

    1. Jennifer

      How long does it take to get up there?

    1. Jennifer

      Totally! They are so cute!

    I have been thinking about this box. Can you send back individual pieces, or is it an all or nothing thing?

    1. Jennifer

      I believe in some cases (maybe like the wrong size) you can send back individual pieces. Otherwise it’s all or nothing!

    I am not sure if your “reply” button is working for me.
    The first box (December) arrived about a week and a half after I ordered it. I got spoiled. This time it has already been 10 days and the box is still sitting ? somewhere. It hasn’t even begun shipping.

    1. Jennifer

      My box came overnight last month! Talk about spoiled.

      And that reply thing is so feisty!!

    This box looks so fun! Can’t wait to give it a try!

    1. Jennifer

      I love that you can send it back if you aren’t happy!

    I received my box about 4 days after it was charged. I think I was lucky because I live in MI also but the weather wasn’t as bad that week. Lol. I love both boxes I have received so far but this one was awesome. I received a Steve Madden romper a gorgeous flower slip from Kibys a dark grey cami and black tank top. It has to be one of my favorite subs right now. I am looking forward to next month!

    1. Jennifer

      I am too! It should actually be pretty soon!

    Your box is so good! I just got mine (was out of town) and decided to look up others boxes (I skip over the boxes I get that you review until after I get them). My box *only* has a retail of $64 (according to them, i didnt check). I got 4 items: shape wear (maybe should add that to my dislikes), mukluks tights (love, vut the info sheet says a different brand), a bright red cami (not my color, yucky material) & the second pair of socks you received (love).

    1. Jennifer

      Are you going to return?

      1. Laura

        Would you? I never have.

        1. Jennifer

          If I wasn’t happy I totally would!!!

    This and Stitch Fix are my favorite boxes. In my Wantables I got some cute warm fair isle tights, fleece lined tights, shapewear and some heart shaped bra clips. Since shapewear and tights are on my likes, this was a good box for me. I wouldn’t have bought the fair isle ones myself but I can always wear tights under long tees in winter and I’ve always wondered about fleece lined – although it would never be cold enough to wear these here.

      I can’t wait to get my February Wantable box! It should be shipping soon!
