Today I am going to reveal what is inside the Allamanda Fukubukuro 2016 bag!
Fukubukuro is a "lucky bag" in Japan which you can buy in the new years, I went to Shibuya109 to get my bags this morning!
The bag was 10,000yen and 9 items inside.
Grey coat! It's cute but it's not my style so I gave it to my friend Sharla instead haha.
Striped turtle neck! I really like this item!
Turtle neck. Eh very plain item :/
Red tank top. This is a very meh item I think.. lol
Pink cardigan.. This is quite cute, can wear during the summer
Dark blue blouse. Probably one of my favourite items in this bag. I have a short sleeve version of this and love it.
Brown belt~
Long black skirt... Honestly don't know how to think of this item lol.
Long grey cardigan. I really like this one actually!
Overall... Quite disappointed in this bag. The Allamanda store is SO cute but the bags in the item are VERY plain compared to the rest of the items in the brand. Really sucked cos if I knew what was in the bag I wouldn't have bought the bag. But oh well.. lol.
Today I am going to reveal what is inside the INGNI Fukubukuro 2016 bag!
Fukubukuro is a "lucky bag" in Japan which you can buy in the new years, I went to Shibuya109 to get my bags this morning!
I decided to get the INGNI bag since I really love the brand INGNI, it's casual but also cute at the same time!
The bag was 10,000yen and 13 items inside.
First item is this coat! The quality is not too bad, but I think that usually for fukubukuros, the quality isn't too great.
This is a nice cardigan! I don't have anything like this so I'm glad I got something!
Floral skirt~ It's a bit longer to a skirt that I would usually wear but I may find a use for it later ~ haha
Stripy top! It's really nice and I like it!
Knitted dress, I LOVELOVELOVE this!! I thought it was a sweater but when I opened it, I was very surprised, I like it so much!!!
Navy sweater! It also comes with a fake shirt collar inside. I really like this! I don't have anything like this and I was going to buy one like this the other day so lucky I didn't!!
Really simple sweater, I really like this one, easy to pair up with things!
Khaki oversized sweater. Really love this, it's super comfortable!!
Long sleeve printed shirt. I think this a bit strange for me and probably won't wear this out LOL.
Printed T-shirt. I usually don't wear T-shirts with prints but I don't mind this one so much~
Cute pair of socks!
Jeggings! I really love these. Super comfortable! Only thing is that this is a one size lucky bag which means you can't choose the size. It is a little loose on me but it's not too bad. These were a size 38 I think!
Tote bag! The quality is actually really nice for this, I will use it when I carry around heavy items~
Overall I'm really happy with this bag! there were SO many items in here! Even though there were some items I wouldn't really wear, most of the bag was really good so I'm happy with it!
It's almost back to school time for those starting school again after the summer holidays, so I decided to do a Back to School lookbook to give you guys ideas!
Usually I dress fully decked out in Liz Lisa, but lately my style has changed a bit. I still love the cute Japanese fashion but I have been mixing it up with other things such as jeans! I think this mix is perfect for school!
If you guys haven't seen the video yet, here it is:
The outfits:
Outfit 1:
Blouse: Taobao
Cardigan: Taobao
Pants: Valley Girl
Absolutely LOVE this outfit! The blouse and cardigan I got recently on Taobao. They are replicas from the Sailor Moon TRALALA collaboration! I paired it with a pair of black jeans which go really well together! The full Sailor Moon outfit is really cute but maybe a bit too cute to wear out to school haha.
This is more of a "mature" outfit. I love the top I got from Chicabooti, it goes well with so many outfits! I'm in love with jeggings lately since they are so comfortable!
Top: Chicabooti
Blazer: Forever New
Jeggings: Cotton On
Outfit 3:
I also got this one piece outfit from my latest Taobao Haul. I wish that they weren't attached, I might just try to deattach them later haha. I absolutely LOVE the top, but not too fond of the skirt!
One Piece: Taobao
Outfit 4:
Very casual outfit! I would wear these on lazy days
Top: Tempt
Shorts: Wholesale Dress
Outfit 5:
Now we are back to the cute Japanese fashion! I LOVE this top from Liz Lisa. It has musical notes on it, when I saw it the first time I knew I had to have it.
Blouse: Liz Lisa
Skort: INGNI
Belt: INGNI
Outfit 6:
Last outfit! I actually really like this one! I love the Liz Lisa top, it goes well with so many things! I decided to pair them with a pair of jeans from Regalect Japan, and a jacket from Liz Lisa!
It's been super hot lately in Perth! I actually like it because it means more beach time for me! hehe. Here is an outfit I wore a few days ago when just hanging out with some friends!
The top is from ARROW, one of my favourite places to shop in Japan for blouses. They always have the cutest blouses there! The shorts are from Pinky Girls. I absolutely love them! The shoes are from Feminine Cafe. I really want more shoes that I can wear in the summer haha T_T I have way too many boots!
If you like this outfit then please hype it on Lookbook!

Just yesterday Liz Lisa released what will be inside the 2015 Fukubukuros so I thought I'd share them with you today!
They revealed what will be in all the bags except for the Web Limited bag.
First up is the 20,000yen bags.
The pink version:
I'm glad I didn't get this bag. I wasn't thinking about it anyway since the bag wasn't really cute looking and it's something I probably won't use. The items inside are kind of... meh to me. They seem a bit too plain for Liz Lisa clothes.
The white version:
I like this one better than the pink bag. The clothes are a lot cuter. For some reason though, I feel that the items in this bag are items they couldn't sell in last year's winter collection. The skirt and the sweater on the right look really familiar... Still, I think that this bag has clothes that are much cuter than the pink one.
Next up is the small suitcase, the one I ordered.
To be honest the first time I saw the items I was a bit disappointed. The coat is almost identical to the one from last year's lucky bag, but just a bit shorter. The camisole... I don't know but I don't like it when Liz Lisa includes camisoles in their lucky bags. I have way too many of them and you feel that you don't really get much out of a camisole. The dress is cute though, so at least I like something in the bag! The coat I do like as well but the camisole... I'll find some use for it lol.
Last one is the More More 3 Way bag
I'm SO glad I didn't get this bag. I was so close to getting it because you can order it with the small suitcase. The reason? Liz Lisa sold a dress identical to that in last year's winter collection which I already have. The dress is cute so I really do like it, but I already have one identical to it. The cardigan I also have something almost identical when Liz Lisa went to Paris. Cute items in here, but I'm glad I didn't get it since I already have those items!
What do you guys think of the lucky bags now that they've been revealed?
The Liz Lisa 2015 Fukubukuros were announced today! I logged in pretty much straight away when they were released to quickly put an order in! haha.
For those of you who don't know what a Fukubukuro is, it is a "lucky pack" that they sell on New Year's day in Japan. A "lucky pack" usually has a whole bunch of items inside the bag that is usually worth more than the price you're paying. Heaps of people line up for the Fukubukuros every year! Heaps of stores in Japan do Fukubukuros (Almost all the Shibuya109 brands, Apple Store, variety stores etc).
Last year I was able to get the Fukubukuro that I wanted! Luckily I knew some people working at the Liz Lisa head office so I got them to save me one! Here is an unboxing video that I made:
Anyway! I'm not sure when I will be back in Japan so I decided to just preorder a Fukubukuro myself! Here are the ones they released this year!
Rose Ribbon Carry Suitcase
This is a web limited edition item. I was going to get this but decided not to, mainly because well... I don't need more suitcases and shipping will be expensive :( Also, I think it will be quite similar to the one I already have. The price is ¥27,000 including tax for the item which is quite expensive. It will have 6 items that come in it I believe.
Pure Pure Big Tote
This one I was kind of surprised at because it's really... plain. It comes in 2 colours, a white and a pink and it is ¥21,600 including tax for one of them. Pretty expensive so I was a bit disappointed in this one. It says there are 5 items in a bag and you can do 2 different coordinates with them.
More More 3 Way Bag
Who is coming up with these weird names? haha. The More More bag is ¥5,400 including tax and will have 3 items in the bag. One dress and 2 other items. The bag is quite cute. I know I won't use it though since I bought a Liz Lisa Fukubukuro 2 years ago in a similar bag and I never used it T_T
Koro Koro Stripe Rose Carry Suitcase
This is the one I bought because it's SO FREAKING ADORABLE!!! Yeah, I know I said I didn't need another suitcase but this is a mini one (I might be able to find some use... haha). This one is ¥16,200 with the tax included. It will have coat inside it and 3 other items. I'm a sucker for vintage rose patterns so I was sold the second I saw it haha. I ordered this straight away before the site crash so *phew*!
Koro Koro Stripe Rose Carry Suitcase & More More 3 Way Bag
There is an option where you can get both the Koro Koro suitcase and the More More bag together. I originally was going to get this because I thought it was cheaper, but nope it's the same price lol. Including tax it is ¥21,600.
Luckily I thought about it before I checked out :P I didn't really want the other bag so I just got the Koro Koro Stripe Rose Carry by itself.
