WEGO Review

Hello lovelies! Apologies for my absence - I have recently been working on my Masters dissertation as well as going to Hyper Japan last weekend and so have been super busy! Today I wanted to share my review of the items I bought from WEGO, before I jet off to Japan for 16 days this Sunday!
For those of you who aren't familiar with it, WEGO is a Japanese shop based in Harajuku, which sells a selection of clothing and accessories for men and women, to suit a range of styles. Some of their items are perfect for fairy kei and pop kei, and their prices are very reasonable! ^^ WEGO does not ship overseas at this time as far as I am aware, so you will need to use a standard shopping service-I chose to use Japonica Market, my usual service, as they are very reliable and always mark down packages to a low value.
Here is a peek at the items I bought! Most of them were on Sale at the time, so they may no longer be available online, however WEGO is always adding lots of cute new items to the website!
I had wanted a pair of puffy earrings for the longest time and they were on sale for less than $2, so I snapped them up right away! The socks suit my obsession with sundaes and soda floats, and the bag reminded me of Katie and Swankiss, along with the choker! Altogether the items cost less than 2,000 yen which was fantastic!
Once I had ordered these items through Japonica, it took about 4 days for them to reach the shopping service from WEGO. When the items arrived to me, they were all wrapped neatly in bubble wrap and plastic wrap to protect them well and keep them clean.

When I opened up the box, everything was so neat and safe!

I could tell straight away that the shell was super iridescent and dreamy!

The print on the socks shows up much better in real life than on the website, which I was super pleased about! They are perfect for a casual outfit and I will definitely wear them on my holiday ^^

All the items together, with a dreamy blue filter! The earrings are huge compared to what I thought, about 3 inches across in size! O.O They are a little heavy but fairly comfortable to wear. The bag is super shiny and reminds me of a silk pillow, I'm scared to use it much in case it gets dirty!

Here are some worn photos from the last few weeks! ;

I wore the choker for both the fashion shows at Hyper Japan, and carried the bag with me for the first show!

Day 2!

Day 3!

Overall, I was super pleased with my WEGO items; they are all good quality and I have had no issues with them so far. The earrings and bag are soft, the socks are comfy to wear and the choker feels nice against your skin, even when wearing it all day long (tried and tested at HJ! :P). The prices for the items were very cheap considering their good quality, and I will definitely be visiting the WEGO shop to buy more items next week in Tokyo!

I hope you all found this review interesting and helpful! If you have any queries about ordering from WEGO, please leave a comment below! I hope all your evenings are lovely, and I will see you all soon!

Love, MyPastelUniverse x
