I’ve never done the whole monthly box thing. I assumed that they probably weren’t all that good or how can the companies providing them make any money. I have no knowledge of them so was prepared to be wrong but I’ve never thought about signing up to one because in my heart of hearts I thought they’d be a waste of money.

However, when asked would I like to try out a new children’s fashion monthly or quarterly box in return for a review, how could I turn the offer down? Box Upon A Time of course, as they all seem to, promises much more than you pay for and with three different options and price ranges you can go in low and build yourself up if you like it. Turns out… I actually do!

I was sent a silver box (£29 per box). Offers 2 to 3 garments worth £50-£60 with up to 50% off retail prices.

(The Gold Box (£49 per box). Offers 3 to 4 garments worth £80-£120, with up to 60% off retail prices.The Platinum Box (£69 per box). Offers 3 to 5 garments from luxury brands worth £120-£170, with up to 60% off retail prices.)

I loved what was inside!

Box Upon a Time’s service offers parents a brand new personal shopping experience which allows parents of children aged 0-3 to receive a box of stylish clothing tailored specifically for their child. Hand-picked by an experienced personal stylist and delivered direct to the door.

So… what did I get?

 

Not only does each box contain the best premium childrenswear brands from across the globe but subscribers also make a saving of up to 60% off the retail value of the clothing. What more could you ask for? With over 60 childrenswear brands on board including Their Nibs, Marmalade & Mash, Fina Ejerique, David Charles, Point a la Ligne, Egg by Susan Lazar plus many more, Box Upon a Time is perfect for busy mums wanting to discover new brands or those simply looking for an extra special gift. I’m pretty impressed and I really do love the clothes! Take a closer look at them, they are gorgeous!

Getting your subscription started is simple, the parent or gift giver visits the Box Upon a Time website and fills out some information about the child’s age and sex and completes a quick fashion questionnaire to determine their fashion profile. Based on these results, Box Upon a Time’s team of stylists will hand-pick a personalised and beautifully curated selection of branded baby or children’s garments to suit the shopper’s style, which will be elegantly packed and delivered direct to the recipient’s door each month or quarter.

I have to say, I’m not usually one to be won over by boxes I would ordinarily deem a little gimmicky but this one, especially if you are a fashionista, is definitely a goodie! I would just say one thing though, we haven’t used Iglo&Indi clothes before and from this experience I have noted they are on the smaller side. I ordered Jimmy’s box for age 2-3 which usually are super big on him as he is, despite being 2 and nearly a half, very tiny. Mostly he wears age 12-18 month clothes. These are aged 2-3 as I requested and they fit him perfectly so if you had a larger child I’m not sure Iglo&Indi is the brand for you! They are adorable though and Jimmy looks awesome in them!
