it took 2 weeks for the wallet to ship from china

after taking it out of the shipping bag, it comes wrapped in plastic and it didn't suffer any damage!

i got the bow charm wallet in blue/green.

the front of the wallet has a cute gold bow with a gem in the middle. underneath it says "lovely blow my lover" in gold cursive, but I'm not exactly sure what that means....

the charm attached to the zipper is mostly gold with a hot pink bow & a little gold envelope at the end

the zipper itself is gold

what's interesting is that one end is still open

while the other end is zipped closed

the back side has one outer pocket, for receipts or any miscellaneous paper

inside there was 2 foam pieces to keep the pockets/compartments from sticking together

i really like the pattern on the inside, plus all the pockets heh

there's a bunch of slots for your cards (this is just one side, but both sides have a wall of these pockets)

there's also a coin pouch right in the middle that zips closed

SO MANY POCKETS!!!!!!

Design: ★★★★★ 

I really love how pretty and simple the design is! the wallet itself comes in a variety of bright colors to choose from, so if you're like me, you'll have a field day trying to pick one LOL. what threw me off a bit was how the wallet didn't zip closed all the way, but I love how there's so many pockets for your cards and cash. the charm adds a cute & fun touch to the overall wallet, but it isn't too big or gaudy to be a burden having it attached. it's a pretty long wallet (7.5 inches or 19 centimeters) long but it's the kind that if you like to keep your money flat (like me) it'll be the right kind of wallet for you. the fabric is also a fake leather, but it's very flexible and is very durable (i tossed this thing into my uni backpack and it suffered 12+ hours of being jostled around on campus, haha)

Service: ★★★★★ 

after about a day or so, my order was shipped with tracking! it came within 2 weeks and the wallet didn't have any damage at all~ 

Overall: ★★★★★ 

I am so happy with this! I've been needing a new wallet for a little while now, but I wanted something cute & pastel and I'm so glad I got this! my last wallet was black and it didn't feel that cute to have around. I mean i know it's just a wallet, but cute things make people smile? hahaha, that's my motto anyways. i think the quality of the wallet itself is so great! there weren't any awkward looking seams sewn into it nor did it have any damage on the exterior or interior. it smelt kind of like plastic, but that's probably because it's brand new.
