Glow by Local Eclectic Jewelry Review - Fall 2020
1 of 5
Here are the info sheets about the jewelry in this box. One thing I like about the info sheets is that care instructions for the different types of jewelry are included, along with more information about each piece. The gold plated and vermeil jewelry is recommended for “occasional” use, which is handy to know.

Joy Dravecky Night Sky Necklace (necklaces from this brand vary from $57-$132)
In my last Glow box, I received a galaxy necklace that would be perfect for layering and this long night sky necklace is the perfect layering piece. I love the curation that coordinates between the different boxes! This featured a gold-plated link chain and pendant adorned with a moon and stars featuring micro CZ crystals. On its own, I wouldn’t consider this ~my~ style, but I’m really intrigued by the idea of layering this with some of my other unique necklaces of varying lengths.

For You, With Love Equinox Aurora Ring (rings from this brand vary between $53-$68)
This ring is gorgeous- it features a mystic topaz set in a twisted 14k yellow gold vermeil band. It doesn’t fit my fingers fully, but it is really cute as a midi ring on my middle finger – the twisted band really adds a nice touch that I didn't expect.

Lover’s Tempo Lavender Floral Ear Climbers (buy the same style ear climbers with different stones for $40)
I love these ear climbers- I don’t have anything like them, and I love how dainty they are while still providing sparkle and shine. The lavender stones (set in 18k gold plate) are very light – you really only get flashes of purple when the light hits, otherwise, they look like regular colored stones. I appreciate that they are made with Swarovski crystals, too – they add a bit more sparkle compared to regular cubic zirconia (in my mind, at least).
Verdict: This box normally sends two jewelry pieces and a bonus. This quarter, the bonus was the third piece of jewelry! I really love this jewelry subscription, the pieces are dainty, good-quality, and unique. Considering the jewelry items are exclusive to this subscription, even as dainty jewelry like this trends again it is nice to know that the pieces I own and wear will always be different than what is available for sale to everyone. I wouldn’t hate if the bonus going forward every quarter is a third piece of jewelry – it really makes the box feel like it has a higher value.
To Wrap Up:
Can you still get this box if you sign up today? No, this subscription is no longer available.
Value Breakdown: This box costs $99 with free shipping, which means you are paying $33 per piece of jewelry.
