It’s hard to resist the draw of the bling.
Shiny stones and gleaming metal are especially prized during the holiday gift-giving season. And one company is making it easy, to give your jewelry-loving friends and family (or yourself) a monthly fix of some nice pieces at a very affordable price.
Cate & Chloe offer their “VIP Box” which features two pieces of jewelry, including a pre-release piece from their upcoming collections, for a monthly subscription price of $39.99. According to the company, each shipment is worth at least $200 retail.
Here you can see what we got in our sample box. Notice the sweet, sweet gleam off the rock on the necklace!
While the jewelry we received was quite beautiful, we take the stated retail prices with a grain of salt. They are based on the prices on Cate & Chloe’s own website, and a quick online search reveals that similar items are priced at around the same level as the discounted price. In other words, Cate & Chloe’s VIP Box offerings appear to be priced at a fair market value, rather than be some huge discount.
Also, if you are looking for solid gold and silver, and real diamonds, look elsewhere, as Cate & Chloe offer mostly silver- and gold-plated items with cubic zirconia or simulated diamonds. Of course, we really cannot expect solid gold and real diamond jewelry anywhere on earth for $20 apiece, can we?
Still, to have two very nice pieces of jewelry delivered to your door for $39.99 per month and free shipping is pretty awesome, and from what we can tell they have an good customer service department should you encounter any issues.
