Brave Store Review

Hello everyone! ^_^

 Today I am going be be reviewing the items I bought from Brave Store on Storenvy! This store is located in Hong Kong, and has a bunch of kawaii and pretty clothing, shoes, and accessories! The two things I bought in this order are the Rose Leggings in light yellow, and the Bow Messenger bag in pink.



The Rose Leggings are currently priced at $8.00, and the bag at $26.00. I personally think these are very fair prices, and was very excited to find them. Shipping for these two items was $5.00, which is also very fair. I was able to get 10% off my order by searching for a coupon code online, so make sure to do that before purchasing!






I purchased from this store on Feb. 13, 2014. In the FAQ, the store states that the items purchased may not come at the same time since different items come from different places... so keep that in mind!  The first to come was the bag, which came on Feb 28, 2014. The leggings came shortly after and arrived on March 5, 2014. Overall, I was very happy with the shipping time! The only thing I disliked is that there was no tracking number, but that is understandable since there was more than one package.

SHIPPING RATING: 4/5


Since it arrived first, I will start with the bag. I was so excited to find such a cute and delicate looking bag for so cheap! The bag arrived in a standard plastic shipping bag. When I opened the package, the bag was wrapped in a cloth protective pouch, which I found nice. The purse itself is adorable! The color is exactly what I wanted, which was a pale rose petal color with a creamy beige trim and bow. The bow on the front is absolutely adorable and adds such a nice feminine touch.




I was also very impressed by how nicely finished the inside of the bag was! It is pretty spacious, with one zipper side pocket. The bag also snaps open very securely, so I know none of my items will randomly fall out!


Overall, this bag really impressed me! I really like that I will be able to use either the handle or the strap to hold it, since sometimes I don't like having a strap around my shoulder :/

BAG RATING: 4.5/5

Now, onto the leggings! The leggings were also arrived in a standard plastic shipping bag. When I opened it, the leggings were neatly folded in a plastic pouch. I immediately noticed how pretty the pale yellow color was! The floral print looked gorgeous with it, and I couldn't wait to try them on. The leggings seemed to be very sturdy as well! Both the waist and the ankles have stretch to them, so they were very easy to put on!


They fit very nicely! The pattern didn't make my leg look big, nor did the fabric cling to me. I felt very comfortable and free in these. The only thing I have to mention is that if you have any darker tattoos on your legs like I do, they might show through a bit through the fabric (This doesn't really bother me though since the floral pattern covers where my tattoo is xD). I would recommend these leggings be worn in the Spring and Fall seasons, since they are not very thick. Note: I am about a size 8US pant and these leggings can stretch a whole lot more!

LEGGINGS RATING: 4/5



TOTAL EXPERIENCE: 4.5/5

I am very happy with the service and items I got from Brave Store! I would really recommend you try them out if you haven't already!
