Innocent World 2015 Happy Pack!!
Hello everyone! I just received my first Happy Pack from IW today and thought I would share both the contents of the actual pack and my experiences! :)
First, some information:
- The Happy Pack was priced at ¥30,000 (tax not includ.). They came in three different sizes, and I ordered a Large pack.
- The Happy Pack was available online on June 1st 2015. It sold out very quickly (likely within the day).
- The invoice was sent to me on June 29th 2015. It was the first time I had ordered any sort of lucky/happy pack, so after the first few weeks I had thought that I had been too late and missed out. xD
- The final invoice was ¥37,150. This is after shipping and tax.
- It was shipped on July 4th 2015 and arrived today on July 8th 2015.
- I did get hit by customs, but I had already expected this. In JPY, customs charged me about ~¥12,000 (I converted it to JPY to make it easier to compare costs later).
- The grand total I paid: ~¥49,150
Now the fun part can begin~!

The 'Wonderful's:
1. The Jagged Lace Blouse (2014) - Pink x Chocolat (¥15,330)
I love this blouse! I don't usually wear pink blouses, but this is so nice that I instantly fell in love with it!
2. Church Choir Flare JSK (2014) - Milk Tea x Beige (¥19,950)
My photos will never not do this dress justice until I put a proper petticoat under it, but basically it's a very simple-looking and elegant JSK. Just look at the beautiful lace it has!
Funny enough, I noticed how my top favourites from this pack both have square collars. XD None of the dresses or blouses I owned before had them, but perhaps this is a sign that I should invest in more square-collar goods. Ha-ha.
The 'Good's:
1. Emma Short Bolero (2012) - Blue (¥10,290)
I love boleros, and I love the colour blue. What I don't know is how the short design will fit/suit me. But at first glance I really like this one so I hope that it's a keeper. :)
2. Greta Blouse Jacket (2013) - Navy x Offwhite (¥14,490)
This was a really pleasant surprise! I generally just skip through sailor/nautical themed clothing but I actually really liked this one once I saw it in person.
The 'Questionable':
1. ??? - Brown. I did not bother to try to see if I could find out what this was.
Well... Could've been worse, but it's not exactly a dress I like. It looks rather comfortable though, so I might use it as a pajama..? XD I think this was actually in the lucky pack example picture but in a different colour.
The Accessories:
I didn't try to match the accessories since there are so many out there that I just couldn't imagine finding my specific needles in the haystack. XD I left them in the original packaging for now, so I don't have any unwrapped photos of them.
1. Hairband - ???
Not really the sort of accessory I would wear. Looks decent enough, but it doesn't seem like a good match to anything I own. This is actually one of the two accessories they showed in the example photo of the happy pack.
2. Picture Frame Necklace - ???
This one is really cute! It's a photo of a duckling hatching out of an egg with a letter in its mouth and... Uh, I swear that it looks better than my description makes it seem. XD
~*~*~
So the known/minimum value of my pack is: ¥60,060!! Wow! And remember that this is the calculated value without the one odd dress and two accessories.
Overall, I'm happy with the purchase and would buy another pack if I could in the future. :P I was hoping I could get at least one print JSK or a bag of some sort, but perhaps next time!!
