Little Lace Box is a subscription service that delivers hand-curated, nearly impossible-to-find designer products directly to your doorstep every other month. Boxes will be brimming with high-end, brand-name beauty, lifestyle, and home product samples to treat yourself to and dazzle your friends during your next night out.  They now also offer Serendipity by Little Lace Box. It’s $9.99/bi-monthly and is a separate subscription from LLB. Serendipity will be sent out every other month (on the off months of the Little Lace Box) and includes five to seven sample size (sometimes full-size) items that don’t have any theme attached at all, just great little finds that LLB wanted to share. This review is on the September 2016 Serendipity by Little Lace Box shipment.

Serendipity by Little Lace Box ships via USPS First Class Mail. They usually take just a few days to arrive, but this one seemed to get hung up at the Post Office and took a few extra days.

You really never know what’s coming in Serendipity!

The September 2016 Serendipity by Little Lace Box included the following items:

~Karista’s Kitchen Spices ($17.97): We received three Karista’s Kitchen spices – Korintji Cinnamon, Smoked Sweet Paprika, and Matcha Sea Salt.  The most interesting of the three has to be the Matcha Sea Salt.  I’ve tried quite a few different sea salt varieties, but never matcha tea flavored. The box also included three recipes that utilize the spices. They are “The Best Broccoli Mac and Cheese” (uses the Smoked Sweet Paprika), “Brown Butter Thumbprint Cookies with Sweet Orange Marmalade & Matcha Salt” (utilizes the Matcha Sea Salt) and “Orange Cinnamon Raisin Baked French Toast.”

~Kilner Square Clip Top Spice Jar (2 fl.oz) ($2.99): This little jar can hold one of your new spices or one of your everyday favorites. I may end up using mine to hold office supplies (paperclips) on my desk.

~Boot Cuffs & Socks ($6.99): Subscribers received either Taupe, Ivory, White or Mint. I think mine are the Taupe?  They are a very light taupe, and it’s probably the shade I would have selected for myself.  They are cute and will look great with leggings / jeans and boots this fall.

~Handwrytten Card ($4.99): Handwrytten sends handwritten cards along with the card design of your choice to whoever you’d like.  I’m not sure I’d want anyone to think it was my handwriting (I wouldn’t want anyone to feel tricked that it wasn’t me writing it), but they have a bunch of cute cards to pick from.

All totaled the September 2016 Serendipity by Little Lace Box had a value of $32.94.  I must say, this wasn’t my favorite box from them.  I’ll use everything, but I wasn’t wowed by it.

The November Serendipity:
A quick note about the upcoming November Serendipity.  Having grown up in the South, we’ve been told countless times that there aren’t four seasons down here.  Well, allow me to respectfully disagree.  We do have four seasons; they’re just named differently than those enjoyed in the North.  Our seasons are “Nearly Summer,” “Summer,” “End of Summer” and “Christmas.”  And in November we will be celebrating the transition from season three to season four, by curating Serendipity around a theme.  We’re calling it “The Most Wonderful Time of the Year.”  And that’s not just because it’s cooler down here (although, to many, that can be reason enough).  So if you don’t celebrate these holidays, just send us an e-mail, and we will place your account on hold so you can skip it and we’ll catch you again in January.  May all your seasons be happy (regardless of what you call them).
