Hey there! So I finally got my Kandee J bag from Imoshion in the mail today!! :) I love it, I have yet to take it out of the house, but I will soon! There is so much room in this baby! I can fit my whole life in this baby and more. It's like the Mary Poppins bag! So I'll show you my bag and all of the ins and outs of it.
Here she is!! The first picture shows you the entire purse, the attached straps and the larger detachable strap are great! I love the pattern and the studs give it a slightly edgy look, the tassle softens the look a bit, but still leaves some edge. :)
The first picture is the back of the purse, showing the big back pocket (this thing has a ton of pockets!) and the little pegs that are on the bottom to protect the purse from getting scratched! The second picture is the inside of the purse, what I love about the inside is that there's this middle divider, which is also a big pocket, and there's so much space! There's two little unzippered pockets for your phone, pack of gum, or whatever, plus another pocket in the back which has a zipper. The Imoshion logo is on the top zipper and on the inside on the little spot of leopard print. And the last picture is zoomed in on the turquoise tassel. <3
With the purse, you also get a make-up bag! It is long enough to fit those extra long eyeliners and a lot of your make-up. Plus, you guessed it, there's another zipper pocket in this!
I like that both the purse and cosmetic pouch have ridges across the pattern to look like it's real leopard, but it's nottt! The entire material is made of faux leather, so it's vegan freindly. Plus the hot pink lining adds a super cute touch. :) There is a discount code on Kandee Johnson's blog for her fans, this post was just talking about her bag and basically a tour of the wonderful purse! Here is her video and in the information bar she placed the link to her blog post.
*EDITED* So, I have had issues with my purse coming apart on the straps that are sewn onto the bag. Which is definitely an issue because you never know if it will pop apart. Imoshion has said that they are no longer using the original manufacturer and that the straps are now triple stiched, when I have called them. I was talking back and forth to them about the issue with my bag via email for the last few days of May through June 6th, then they no longer emailed me back for whatever reason. I got frustrated and called them June 23rd. Whenever they would go to put me on hold, as soon as they would say the words "please hold" they would
immediately push the hold button, there was no waiting for a reply, which I
did have (something like "why am I being transferred" etc.). I wound up calling them back
multiple times on the 23rd because when they would put me on "hold", they would actually hang up on me, which made me even more frustrated. I would call back and get the same person and let them know they had just hung up on me and they no sooner say "please hold" again before I could say "do
not put me on hold again". After I had been put on hold
many times, they finally told me they would call me back later that night. I didn't recieve a call back that night, I have waited another 2 weeks and 4 days for a phone call back from them, and still nothing! So I finally called them
again today. I have found out that they no longer use pay pal (probably because many people have complained to pay pal about crappy service, etc.) I had asked for a full refund and they said "didn't you pay $72.75, because of a 15% discount code?" of which they had told me they would apply (at the time I placed my order, there was no place for a discount code therefore I emailed them and asked if they could apply the code of which I had), but they had never actually applied the code, since my pay pal reciept shows no discount ever being applied, because of this, I had paid full price for my bag. They are now going to refund $85 out of my paid $90.95 because the rest of it was the cost of shipping. They had offered to send me a brand new bag instead of a refund (this was the only thing that I appreciate from them), but I said that I would rather have a refund. They told me to go ahead and keep my bag since I no longer wish to exchange my old and damaged one for a brand new one, and that I just want my money back. It has been nothing but frustration from waiting for replies from Imoshion and not hearing back. Maybe if I lived in California it wouldn't be such a pain, but I doubt it would be any different. It is fully unfortunate that their customer service is not good. So I no longer support Imoshion's business and I will never buy a bag from them again solely because of this whole ordeal.
Here's the damage on my bag. Both sides of the back strap were coming undone. The first picture is the left side of the back strap, which is the worst of the two. And the second picture is the right side of the back strap, which is just beginning to rip.
-I still support
Kandee Johnson and all that she does. I still love her and all of her videos and blogs. I love her design and all that she did with this bag. I know that she has
nothing to do with the fact that this bag was poorly made, she
only came up with the idea and design of the bag and all that was on it.
It was the company's job to choose a good manufacturer and to carry out her design, therefore
Imoshion is the one that I no longer support.
I believe in Kandee Johnson, I believe that she is a truly fantastic person who wishes people nothing but wonderful things. I believe that Kandee Johnson had no idea that this bag would do something like coming unsewn. I have nothing but love and support for Kandee. I still continue to support her in her ongoing journey through life and her career, and I wish her all good things. I am continuing to read her blogs and watch her videos as if this issue with the bag had nothing to do with her. I do
not see this as a poor reflection on
Kandee. I still get excited to read her blogs and watch her videos. I do
not believe that anyone who may have had a bad experience with the Kandee J bag from Imoshion or who has read this post should dislike Kandee Johnson or
anything of the sort because
none of it was/is her fault.-
Struttin' my new leopard bag *until it completely rips*, Annie <3
