(Late) Package time:

Hi!~

Late post that I was meant to post up last year =-=; but here it is never the less! In about September of last year I had purchase some AP items ( thanks to my bank) and was so happy to get them! I used Chibi-Tenshi as my shopping service to buy one of my 'dresses to buy this years' list, Little Bear's Cafe. She was, as usual wonderful to assist me in my lolita needs and I highly recommend her service for buying in Japan.

I revived my Package about 5 days after she shipped it off. Normally it takes 4 days to get to me via EMS from Japan but due to it being in customs it took an extra day (which wasn't a BIG deal).

The box it was shipped in was perfect! I was worried that it'll be too big and add extra weight to the content but I was pleased to see the box was a perfect fit thus, again I highly recommend Chibi.

I bought 2 items with Chibi's service. A JSK + KC and bag.
 I'll show of the dress first~

The dress was wrapped in not one, but two Disney bags <3 I think Chibi might have wrapped them for me before package so thank you! 

(sorry about how messy presentation is! I'll take more pic's later)

The dress came in a rather odd state, normally when I buy off Mbok all the dresses are kept in great condition but this one seems a little worn out and there is thread pulled etc. The description never said anything about this sort of 'wear' and also the pompom's on the neck straps were almost ripping off  >-> Compared to my other Little Bear's Cafe JSK in black this brown one seems to be the obvious poorer of the two unfortunately. Regardless, I did like the print and will be keeping it.

  (Please excuse the orange fingers. They were not caused by the pompoms)

Another problem with the pompoms on the neckties are a different colour then the ones on the brim. At first I was unsure whether or not this was a repair job done by the previous owner and the original pompom's might have fallen off at some stage but after searching around for stock pictures etc I found that this was the correct colour >-> If anyone is thinking of buying this OP in brown then beware. I'm not sure whether or not this pompom colour differentiation shows up on the other colourways or not as the only other colourway comparison I have is black which is pretty standard black all over.

The other item I got was the AP 'Upside Down Story' bag. I was unable to get it when it first came out as my SS had tried both online and in-store without prevail. But she was able to get me one when she happened to be in-store and messaged me if I wanted it as they had only put out one so I obviously said yes! I wanted the bag the most so I'm thankful to have snagged it. This is my first brand bag to ever purchase an was so excited when it arrived.

The whole thing is leather (I think) with cards impressions in it. I love the colour and Alice metal seal along with the buckles. I absolutely adore this bag! 

The bag is gorgeous and I'm afraid of using it. I mainly got this bag because it went with many of my dresses and coords. Also another reason I purchased this dress was because it remind me so much of the Melty Creamy Chocolate bag, but for less $$$. 

And finally~ I love when Chibi writes her little notes. They are always nice to see and receive in orders <3
