Meow x Meow Lycee box opening

I haven't posted any Pureneemo box openings after February, even though I've received a few dolls after that... IRL stuff kept me so busy that I had to open the dolls in a hurry and didn't really have the time for taking any BO pictures :/ It's a shame, since I'd love to document all of my doll arrivals to have a nice memory for later. But at least now that I have more time during the summer, I can post box openings of the dolls that arrive before my summer break ends!

Anyway, this is the box opening of my Meow x Meow a la Mode Lycee ! She is the standard version :) Because I'm stupid and forgot to set up my alarm, I missed the pre-orders pretty much everywhere, but luckily managed to find her from CDJapan - they still had ONE available :'D I got so lucky there, I know many people missed on her and have been having a hard time trying to find her afterwards...

I really love this cat-themed series from Azone - the outfits are so adorable and most of them feature cute pastel colors! ♥ Each of the dolls comes with a set of cat ear hairband and tail too~ With this Lycee, I fell in love with the combination of pastel purple and black, the cute cat print on the dress and the adorable hoodie with cat ears! ♥ I also have Sahra and Maya from the Meow x Meow series, and I'd love to get my hands on the Direct Store version of Alisa as well (mainly for the clothes though) ;3; I have a feeling that Azone knows what's my (and many other people's) weak spot, lol...

Now let's move on to the photos!

The cutie in the box!

I love how her mouth can look like ":I" from far, but when you get a closer look you see that it's actually ":3"

An overview of all the outfit pieces and accessories she comes with 

Instructions on how to put on the cat tail. I love the idea of a little "pocket" on back of the panties, it's really easy to slip the magnet inside and the tail stays on its place very well! This way you can also easily use the tail on some other doll, it just needs to wear the panties :3

The pictures on right show some alternative dress-up ideas, those outfits really show how different the same doll can look just by changing the outfit!

I must admit that I'm quite tempted to try to find the pink-haired Lycee as well... I don't need the doll itself though, but I'd really like to get the outfit and it's so hard to find the default outfits for sale separately :/ The only ones that I've been have cost pretty much the same as the whole doll, so...

Out of the box! Now we just need to take that plastic thing off...

Kirari says hello! ♥ I previously had Kirari as Maya, but I didn't bond with her so well. I'm liking this doll a lot more already and think that she's a better fit for Kirari's character :3

Her hair looks black in most photos, but it's actually a very, very dark brown. It's so close to black that you wouldn't be able to tell, unless you compared it with a doll that has raven black hair :D

Here you can see the length of her hair a bit better :3

Put on the cat hairband, so adorable~ *w* ♥

Nyan nyan~ ♥♥

I didn't take any photos with the hoodie... As much as I love it, I think it would actually work better with some other outfit because of the puffy sleeves on this dress ^^;

I'm really happy with this doll, but it was a bit disappointing to see how poorly the bows on the socks had been sewed on... Basically one of them was already half loose when I took the doll out of the package >.< After these photos I ended up removing the bows completely and threw them to trash, lol XD The socks actually look even cuter without the bows, I think!

    1. Kiitos :3 Toivottavasti sunkin Lycee kotiutuu pian!
      Toi on sellanen väri mitä monet nukkefirmat myy peruukkeja nimellä "Natural Black" tai vastaavaa. Kun verrattiin pikku Miuhun (jolla on siis ihan pikimusta tukka), niin ero on ihan selkeä mut ei tota muuten kyllä tajuaisi!

  3. She is so cute! I love how her mouth is a tiny kitty mouth! And those ears are love :D At least you can sew very well and fix anything you don't like about the outfit. And congratulations on your new cutie!

  4. This black-haired one is very pretty, but gaah that pink-haired Lycee is adorbs! *_* Loving the theme though and it's refreshing to see lavender/black used instead of the usual pink (thenagain, I'm sucker for the pinks soo...)

    1. Thank you~ I think quite many people liked these cat-themed Neemos :3 I actually feel like she didn't have as many accessories as some other Neemos, but her outfit still looks great!
