Winter Lucky Pack (dark color)
Ordering
I registered myself on the English website the evening before the Lucky Packs (LP) went on sale. Registering was very easy, just a short form and that's it. When ordering a LP I had to keep some things in mind: you won't receive any points, you aren't allowed to put other items into the cart (if you do the order will be cancelled), the Christmas Fair novelty won't be included. And, of course, the number is limited. I actually got up at 4am just to order this pack. Yes, I'm desperate. XD When ordering you can select if you want to pay via credit card or Paypal (PP). When choosing PP, after confirming your order you'll see a page which redirects you to a PP page where you can complete the payment. The payment confirmation is also the confirmation that the order was successfully placed. The website stated that the LP's will be send out from 27/12 onwards and I did receive a tracking number on 28/12 confirming that my package was shipped on said date but didn't arrive until nearly two weeks later. Shipping to Germany was really delayed this time. At least, I didn't have to pay customs fees.
Review
Usually you don't know what's included in a LP, Metamorphose gave some hints though: pinafore dress, long sleeve blouse, ribbon barrette, bloomers, accessoires (including socks) and special original bag. In other words: a whole outfit coordination. The LP was shipped in a plastic bag.
Inside the bag was another plastic bag, this time with the Metamorphose logo.
The items were neatly folded with a "thank you" notice on top.
And I actually received the special bag I wanted: the one in pink. I love the glitter design with the gold print.
The main design was black with rose print on top. The bloomers were a perfect fit, as expected.
The ribbon barrette with the main design.
And the dress of the same design. A lovely piece, however, it's a bit too small for me. I debate whether to sell/trade it or just see if I fit into it after my diet.
The included white blouse has shirring at the back but it won't fit me. My bust is simply too big for this blouse. Another item which I have to trade or sell.
The accessory is the following necklace. It's not my style though therefore I'll trade or sell this one as well.
Rating
5/5... bag, bloomers, ribbon barrette, dress, blouse and necklace for 15.000JPY. Just by looking at the price tag of the dress I can see that it's a real bargain again. Once again, some items are not my size but that's the risk of LPs. Aside from that, the items are of great quality and the price is justified.
