I-Ella the List Sex in the City Style Soho Bag Review


I have been waiting for my I-Ella the List Box very patiently. Well, actually as patiently as I can. This month I-Ella sent a box themed around My Sex in the City Style.  You know why I was excited now.


What is I-Ella the List?
I-Ella the List is your Personal Stylist in a Box. Each month I-Ella the List will pick out a theme, and send you a box full of fashion goodness, and extra goodies. You can pick from three bags: 1) Starter Bag, which is $59; 2)Soho Bag, which is $129; and 3) St. Barth’s Bag, which is $389.  Before signing up you take a style quiz, to find out what you like best, and I-Ella the List also has you provide all your sizing information, so that any clothing and shoes fit perfectly. The sit back and wait to for the fashion to come to your door. 


I-Ella the List Sex and the City Style
Soho Bag



After going through my style profile I-Ella the List determined that my style was most like Carrie.  And the box that I got for this go round through I-Ella the List was great!  And I have to add that for this Sex and the City Style bag it was presented so nicely. This is what it looked like after opening the box.  I was super excited to dig right in.



Blithe & Bonny -$8
I was really excited to see this soap because I had heard that it was good stuff. This bar is a soap bar made with Goats Milk. Not too sure about that. However it smelled great, and I love how it is packaged.

Herban Essentials  -$12

I receive these in each I-Ella the List box I get. I do not mind, but I am collecting quite the collection now.

Caroline Gardner Notebook- $6
I was really excited to get this little journal/notebook. I am guessing that a notebook/ journal was included in my Soho Bag because my style was Carrie. We all know on the Sex in the City Carrie was a writer of the best column in New York.  This came at just the right time, and the Caroline Garner prints are just so lively and bright!

M&M  Schmalberg Custom Flower  –$18
While I loved this flower, I was not sure what I was going to do with it right away. I actually think it may go into use for our little one.  Sewed on to a little headband for our little one would be super cute!


Wren Cut Out Pleat Dress  –$330
 Perfect for work. I  like I-Ella the List more and more because they send me clothing that I absolutely love. In just one week, I have actually worn two pieces that I have gotten in past I-Ella the List Bag,  and my Biko necklace. I love the colors of this dress, and it definetly adds some color to my closet. I am usually a black dress kind of gal.  One thing I know for sure I am super glad it was in my I-Ella the List bag because I usually do not spend $330 on a dress just for the heck of it!

TICKLED PINK OPINION:  Okay I have to just say it,  I-Ella the List was super-fantastic this month. Yes, I know super-fantastic is not a word, but it really was great.  I did have to wait longer than I thought for this box to come my way, but it was worth the wait for sure. My Sex in the City style Soho Bag was packed full with $374 worth of products, and it cost me $129 and shipping.  I am just over-the-top happy with everything and cannot wait to see more from I-Ella the List!

Until next time

I-Ella The List Soho Bag Review




Yay, another clothing and shoe subscription came about a week ago, and it was for me! Another great month for I-Ella the List Bag, and for this month the theme was shoes. Yes, ladies shoes! I was beyond thrilled to see what was packed inside this month’s bag.




What is I-Ella the List?

I-Ella the List is your Personal Stylist in a Box. Each month I-Ella the List will pick out a theme, and send you a box full of fashion goodness, and extra goodies. You can pick from three bags: 1) Starter Bag, which is $59; 2)Soho Bag, which is $129; and 3) St. Barth’s Bag, which is $389.  Before signing up you take a style quiz, to find out what you like best, and I-Ella the List also has you provide all your sizing information, so that any clothing and shoes fit perfectly. The sit back and wait to for the fashion to come to your door.




SHOES I-ELLA THE LIST SOHO BAG


This month the theme was shoes, and I was thinking, well of course the contents will be shoes. Well, I-Ella went beyond that, and I cannot wait to show you what was in my Soho Bag this month.


Herban Essentials Towelettes -$6.00


These are included in most my I-Ella the List Bags, but I really like them. In this month’s box they included only Lavender, which is may favorite out of them all. These are great to pack in my purse, or to have in a bag for the little one.


Clairvoyant Beauty  DePuffing Eye Gel and Misc. Samples- $16


I am always looking for a better DePuffing Eye Gel. I currently use Benefit Cosmestic, and I really like it,  but we will see how this matches up. There were also samples included of French Clay Cleanser and UnderEye Brightening Gel.  What I like about Clairvoyant is that it is vegan and no animal testing.


Rifle Paper Co. Garden Recipe Card Set- $12



These are just super cute recipe cards, and I love Rifle Paper Co. Somethng I didn't expect to see in my I-Ella the List bag, but I like them.  I may have to find a nice little recipe card holder now.  Any suggestions where to get one?


Michael Lauren Clothing Black Tank Maxi Dress- $90


Michael Lauren has a list of A-list clients like Halle Berry, Charlize Theron, and Jessica Alba. I really like these celeb’s style, so I thought I would  like what was packed inside my I-Ella the List Soho Bag. And, yes, I do! A very classic black tank maxi dress. It is just my style, and is super comfy. I-Ella the List most definitely is keeping my style in mind with this pick. Love it!


MTNG Nile Sandals- $85



And now the SHOES! I usually would not have picked these sandals out these on my own. However, they are super stylish, and I think would look very good with the black tank maxi. MTNG shoes are made in Spain and are said to be super high quality. I am very happy with these sandals.


TICKLED PINK OPINION: The total value of my I-Ella the List Soho Bag this month was $209, and the cost for me was $139 (shipping is extra), and I think the Soho Bag I got was well worth it. I could not be happier with the Shoes I-Ella the List Soho Bag. I am super impressed by the turnaround of the I-Ella bags that I have been getting lately. If you read any of my reviews a couple months ago,  I was a little displeased with what I had been getting. However, I have been super happy with the last two Soho Bags that I have received, and hope that I keep getting bags like this. I know that this bag’s theme was shoes, but I was most excited about my Michaeal Lauren Clothing Black Tank Maxi Dress, and cannot wait to wear it. The next bag’s theme is Sex in the City, and I cannot wait to see what is in store for I-Ella the List Bags. Another maxi would be fine by me! Haha.

I-Ella the List Back on my Hit List- Soho Bag Review


I really do have a love for clothing subscriptions, and if you have read my review of last month’s I-Ella the List Starter Bag you know I was a little less than thrilled about what I received. I contacted I-Ella, and Ella was very nice. She explained that they really do try to make each subscription box/bag to fit what the subscribers like. Well, nonetheless, with a little discount I was convinced to try the Soho Bag. I was thrilled with my bag this month.



New York Sample Salein a bag
Soho Bag




This month each bag was guaranteed to be, at least, double in price versus what was paid for the subscription. And, YES, indeed it was.


Herban Essentials Lavender Towelettes- $10



These towelettes you will see in my other I-Ella the List Starter Bags, but they smell lovely, and while I already have some of these, I can always use more. Even better the lavender are my favorites.


Miss Jessie Jelly Soft Curls


This stuff is said to be great for curls and “The Best Darn Super Soft Gel Period.” Haha. Well I have heard lots about Miss Jessie products, so since I have some natural curl in my hair I am excited to try it out.  No price was given for this sample.


Armour Beauty Lip Gloss- $21


I received some Armour Beauty Lip Gloss in my first starter bag, but it was a deep red.  This pink color will be a great natural gloss for summer. Armour Beauty is a favorite among the stars, and to let you know it really is pretty great.  

Walter Baker Jamie Blue Skirt - $128


Okay now for the good stuff. When I contacted I-Ella they asked me why I was disappointed, and I let Ella know that I thought I would be receiving more clothing in my monthly bags. Yes, clothing is the way to my heart. And my cries were heard. This skirt is so pretty and perfect for work.  It is something I would pick out for myself as well. When I-Ella sends clothing (well only once before), it has always been right on the money.


Walter Baker Karl Fuschia Top- $138


Another clothing item and it screams my style to the tee. I love tops like these. The color is bold, perfect for summer, and the detailing on the buttons is just beautiful. I cannot wait to wear this at work or on a nice casual day out and about. Like I always say, I love versatile pieces of clothing, which this top is.

Piper Gore Finn Romper- $145


I have not really picked up on the romper style. I just was not sure they would look very good on me. However, this black romper is the perfect romper for me. It is elegant, simple, feminine, and very comfortable. And, it is very versatile as well. I can have a hay day with all kinds of accessories with this piece.

TICKLED PINK OPINION: As you can tell the I-Ella the List Soho Bag won me back over. The picks for my bag this month were just wonderful, and I love adding great new pieces of clothing to my wardrobe. The total amount I paid for this was, $139 (cost with shipping), a little more than your average subscription, BUT included in this month’s New York Sample Sale Soho Bag was $442 worth of quality items.  Yes, I am already signed up for next month’s Soho Bag ,and the theme is SHOES. Cannot wait to see. I am hopeful history does not repeat with I-Ella the List subscription, but time will see.
