Luxury Portfolio Magazine: Subscriptions to Liven Up Your Everyday

While globetrotting, bar hopping and various forms of entertainment are on hold, it doesn’t mean time at home has to be dull. Subscription boxes are becoming increasingly innovative, offering unique experiences for every need, whether it’s prioritizing wellness and beauty, learning a new craft, discovering culturally rich products or enhancing your overall living space. These subscription boxes are fresh for a new era and sure to provide you something to look forward to every month. 


1. NORLII HOME

Based in Copenhagen, Denmark, Norlii is a thoughtfully curated home décor box featuring 4–5 hand-picked and highquality objects solely from Scandinavian brands. Norlii’s Scandinavian interior design principle incorporates three main components — natural materials, clean design and hygge. Hygge is a Danish/Norwegian word that translates to coziness and comfort, meant to bring about feelings of wellness and contentment, each mood of which is prioritized within the region due to the cold climate. Whether you’re located in a cold climate or not, these Scandinavian design ideals are particularly reassuring in current times as home has become more central to our lives than ever before. norlii.com


2. UJAMAA BOX

Since 2014, Ujamaa Box, sent on a quarterly basis, has featured 300+ international, exclusively Black-owned brands from varying industries that include fashion, art, health, food and beauty. The name “Ujamaa” is a Kwanzaa principle that translates to “cooperative economics,” which is the belief that for all to prosper, we must build and maintain our businesses together. This idea is clearly mirrored in the service, as a single purchase results in the support of multiple cooperating businesses at one time, all while exposing subscribers to various favorites that may have been otherwise difficult to find. ujamaabox.com

Every kit includes full-sized, award-winning spirits, allowing subscribers to really hone their bartending skills, master the recipes, share with friends and stock up their home bars.
