Hello everybunny, happy February! c: January seems to have flown by, and usually I'd be sad that time is passing too fast but I want it to be May already so I can go to Japan & go to theme parks ww. Josh & I are in the midst of planning some awesome things, the only things left to buy are some attraction tickets and our JR rail pass. :D We're going further than Tokyo this time!♪ Today I have another (and sadly my final ;c) 2015 fukubukuro post.♥ (Though I've seen a few on auction that I'd like to get ww♥) I didn't have plans to buy this fukubukuro at first, but after seeing reveals posted to twitter & instagram I fell in love with the contents! Ank Rouge had left sales open until around the 5th Jan, I bought mine on the 3rd.♪ It was on pre-order for a week or so, and then I decided to have it shipped by SAL, which took almost two weeks. OTL But it finally arrived with no customs fees, so I was very happy with that hah. ; v ;
The online fukubukuro came in a drawer box (you'll see in photos below♪), the in-store fukubukuro was a heart shaped bag. I wouldn't have had much use for a big bag like that, but I'm grateful for the extra clothing storage www
The thing that put me off getting the LP before was the random coat/jacket.;; The sailor collar jacket wouldn't have really matched anything I have unless it was beige (even then I'm not so fond of the style;; ), and the red duffle coat would have made me look like I was in Team Magma (I've been wearing turtlenecks a lot recently ww). The beige duffle coat though, is super cute.♥ Plus it had a hood (I lack any hooded jackets) and it would look cute with my boyish clothes too. I decided to just take my chances and hope for the best though.♪
The fukubukuro would also contain a onepiece. Though this is a onepiece, I probably wouldn't wear it without a cutsew/turtleneck/blouse unless it was super hot. ; 7 ;'' The designs are super cute, I love the high waist style too.♪
They also contain a blouse (brown tie or pink tie) a skirt with the same design as the onepiece, and a turtleneck.♪ I didn't have a colour preference for any of these, they're all really cute! Plus the blouse is the same design with just a different colour ribbon which I could easily get from elsewhere. c: From what I gathered after seeing reveals that others had posted, there was also another random item included, bringing the contents to 6 items total.♪
The total cost was ¥10,800 (incl. tax) and the value was stated to be around ¥40,000.♪♪
♥Fukubukuro♥
The box is a decent size, and the design is super pretty.♥ It's made from strong cardboard and seems really sturdy, so I'll definitely be using this to store clothes.♪
There's a convenient carry handle on top. c:
Voila, the drawer slides out!
(I took this after I had opened everything up, when I opened it for the first time, everything was wrapped up and such)
♥Contents♥
I was really surprised to see this in the LP! I guess this is the 'random item' I got.♪ Although I barely wear black, this backpack will go pretty well with my boyish clothes. c: I don't have any super casual bags like this either, so I'm pretty sure this will come in handy! Though I think this would suit my boyfriend's wardrobe more than mine.^^;
It's pretty roomy, and the straps are adjustable.♪
Each item in the fukubukuro came with tags attached with the retail prices on, so you could see yourself how much everything inside is worth.♪
I got the skirt in the brown colourway.♪ Sadly I lack dark brown shoes, but the detailing is pink and I have no shortage of pink shoes!♥ I have two pairs on their way from DreamV too.^^
The skirt has an elasticated waist and a little bow at the front.♥
I'm not usually a fan of all over prints unless they're florals, but I quite like this one! I think I prefer the light print on a dark background rather than vice versa. The skirt isn't sukapan, though it does have a very soft lining.♪ I don't have much experience with Ank Rouge products, but since my other skirt isn't a sukapan either, I'm guessing Ank Rouge don't really do them? I need to find some cute safety shorts at some point.♪
I got the blouse with the dark brown tie.♪ It's lovely & simple, so it will go with a lot of different things.^^ With a different colour tie, or even sans a tie, it would be cute with lolita. ; v ; I prefer to wear my lolita clothes with simple long sleeved blouses, I prefer old school dress/skirt + blouse + petti + bow + bag ahah ;;
The heart buttons and frill on the collar are both very cute. ; v ;♥
Simple cuffs.♪ It's a really versatile blouse, I think it would work well with boystyle too.^^
The onepiece is super cute!♥ I love the high waisted style and the little bow.♪ I think I'll end up wearing this a lot with different cutsews, blouses etc.^^
Just like the skirt, it has a little bow.^^
The bodice is simple, so a blouse or cutsew with a cute collar or other details would make this a little more dressy.^^ And likewise with a simple turtleneck, it would keep it casual.♪ It's quite versatile in that respect. c:
The print and lining are the same as the skirt.♪
Yes, I got the coat I wanted, I feel so lucky! ;; 7 ;;♥ It's even more wonderful than in the stock photos too!♥ Beneath the toggles, it buttons up, there are two nicely sized pockets, and it's fully lined!♪
The hood is a really nice size, and is really sturdy so it doesn't flop!♪ Floppy hoods are so disappointing. ;;
When I saw Swankiss release a coat like this with toggles (though that one had paw prints on either side of the toggles) I really really wanted one ww ; v ; Though theirs was longer than this and also very expensive, so I decided against it ahah. ;;
The pockets are heart shaped. ; 7 ;♥
Thank you so very much for reading!♥ That concludes my 2015 fukubukuro reveals, unless I buy some on auction in the near future ww♪ I'll be posting outfit posts with clothes from my fukubukuro soon.^^♥ I have a Bobon21 haul to post too.♪
Have a peaceful February!♥
Love, Eliza♥
