dazzlin fukubukuro (aka lucky bag, 福袋) 2014 reveal
This is the fourth and the last fukubukuro that I left to show you and it is from the Japanese fashion brand, dazzlin.
Total costs: 10,000 yen for the fukubukuro and 5,193 yen for international shipping with EMS (the costs were divided by three)
From the 4 fukubukuro that I bought, I like the bag of the dazzlin 2014 fukubukuro the most. It is made of very sturdy, but light canvas and the casual style makes it very suitable to use on a day to day basis. I can already imagine myself taking it to the gym or as a travel bag for a long weekend abroad. It is a bit too baggy and wide for small items, so you really need to fill it up with things for it to look pretty. I bought the size M version that has the bag with beige colored details, but I like the size S version more as the black details look more chic.
For a winter fukubukuro, I was surprised to find a flowery dress and a tutu skirt. The turtleneck and matching skirt didn't look very warm either, but when I put them on, they made me feel very snug. The purple-grey color - which IMO looks better than the orange-brown? set that the size S version has - does look a bit boring, so I really need to accessorize or wear colorful tights with it. The flowery dress looks a bit strange, as the belt which was packed in plastic wrapping still looks pink and the dress itself seems to have a faded pink color.
I almost forgot to mention it, but the peachy brown coat actually had two rows of buttons and I removed a row to make the coat fit looser. To me, it looks better too as there was a lot of extra fabric on the front, but now I can't put my hands in the pockets since they moved more to the outside. I hate having cold hands in the winter. >_<
