My Last ASOS Haul


May08

My last ASOS haul was made on 15 January 2012 and it really WAS my LAST ASOS haul. Due to too many lost packages, I have decided to stop shopping there.

So here's my last batch of purchases from ASOS.

Vero Moda Barocco Print Shift DressShort shift dress by Vero Moda. Featuring a graphic baroque-inspired print pattern with a plain top panel, a slash neckline, short styling with an A-line flared fit through the body, long blouson sleeves with elasticated cuffs and a lightweight fluid finish.

Original £24, now £15.50

I have been wearing this to death cos it's so flattering and comfortable. Sadly, the fly in the ointment is the static. It would stick to all the places it should not and make me worry about exposing half a butt cheek while walking =.= Any good solutions for removing static from clothes? Help please!

ASOS Wrap Dress with Cut out Back Long sleeve dress, featuring a gathered wrap design to the front, with a plunging v-neckline, fitted style through the body and cut out detail to the back.

Original £35, now £15

I bought this in the wrong size but it still fit, kinda. Damn saddlebags make any fitted dress look horrid on me. When will I ever learn :(

ASOS Sleeveless Satin Tie Pocket Front BlouseTie detail blouse, featuring a point collar with removable satin tie fastening, sleeveless styling, twin patch pockets to the chest, concealed button through fastening to front, and a central pleat to reverse, in a semi sheer finish.

Original £22, now £12

I have the perfect long black skirt to go this with. Schoolmarmish look eh?

Vila Roll Neck with Button DetailJersey top by Vila. Crafted in a soft fine gauge jersey fabric. Featuring a press stud fastening roll neck with a split draped design and button embellishments, long sleeves with gathering to the shoulders, and a relaxed fit.

Original £25, now £11

Very soft, very comfy. Very nice.

ASOS Swing Dress with NecklaceSwing dress, featuring a metallic embellished necklace design to the neckline, halterneck style with deep pleats to the front and a plunging open back.

Original £40, now £15

Again, wrong size but nothing that a strategically placed safety pin can't solve.

ASOS Lace Dress with Contrast CollarLace dress, featuring a contrast '60s style collar, short, semi sheer sleeves with buttoned cuffs, a soft A-line skirt with semi sheer, lace overlay and a concealed zip closure to reverse.

Original £40, now £21.50

How cute is this right? Gonna wear it out soon!

ASOS Pleated Trapeze CamiTrapeze camisole top, featuring a V-neckline with shoestring halterneck straps, a sharp pleated finish, an open back with a single string strap to the centre and a trapeze swing shape in a silk-touch finish.

Original £30, now £9

This is for those unbearably hot and humid days.

ASOS XL Rose Hair GarlandRose garland by ASOS Collection. Featuring an oversized, multi rose design set on an elasticated head band.

Original £8, now £2

Have a vague idea to use this for Halloween.

And Mary Stone RingSilver-tone ring by And Mary. Featuring a slim curved shank with a small round stone design set on a narrow axis, with a high shine finish.

Original £9, now £5

Wish I had bought more of this in the other colours. Oh well.

Thanks for reading!

Haul: Clothings From Taobao (Orange Bear)


Mar29

We recently discovered this website called 'taobao' and it's like a one stop shop where you can buy all sorts of rubbish from. And by rubbish, I mean it in the most affectionate way :D

So we consolidated our orders and within 2 weeks, our loots arrived! Many many thanks to the hardworking Amy and Kas who did the clicking, ordering, collecting and distributing! Loves!

I got this in a size too big but it's nice to be worn baggy and flowy. Love the faux leather collar and cuffs.

Black, lace top. Enough said 8-P

Very sweet blouse (I love ribbons and bows) perfect for work or play.

Casual sleeveless top for hot and humid days.

Busy dotty top with the kinda sleeves I like!

Slouchy jacket with faux leather shoulder detail.

The little detail on the back caught my eye.

And my favourite of the lot.

TGIF!!!

ASOS Again


Feb11

Ever since I placed my first order on that fateful day in March last year, I have become hooked, an addict to ASOS. I even find that I seldom shop at physical stores anymore.

Here's one of my (not so recent) purchases:

Vero Moda Lace Collar Waisted DressFeaturing, a round neckline with keyhole tie detail, contrast lace collar, elbow length sleeves, gathered cuffs, high waistline, pleats to waistband, and a mini cut length.

Original £28, now £13

I like this a lot as it is a flattering shade and has a nice cutting. Love the sleeves.

ASOS Bodycon Dress with Off ShoulderBodycon mini dress, featuring off shoulder styling with short fitted sleeves, a straight cut neckline and back and a stretch cotton form fitting design.

Original £25, now £10

Erm I have no idea where I threw this dress. I think it's somewhere in a corner of my room. Under a pile of new and unworn clothes. Ooops.

ASOS Shirt with Contrast Placket DetailBlouse crafted in a semi-sheer chiffon fabric. Featuring a round neckline, long sleeves styling, contrast button fastening cuffs, with a contrast pleat placket front, and a three button fastening to reverse.

Original £30, now £22.50

This will be one of my work wear staples methinks.

ASOS Midi Skirt with BeltMidi skirt, featuring a high paperbag waist with plaited leather look belt, box pleats, an A-line shape, a midi length, and a concealed zip fastening to reverse.

I actually took the day off to check out the Shiseido sale. Call me mad but I think it was totally worth it. Not only did I get to bag some good deals, I also had a fun and relaxing day.

From SephoraUrban Decay Super-Saturated High Gloss Lip Color & Sephora Jumbo Liner

From Watson's & SephoraL'oreal Infaillible Eyeshadow, Sally Hanson Salon Effects Nail Polish Strips, Sephora Jumbo Liners & Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm

There's a funny story behind the Sephora items. We (Amy, Meryl & Sophia) were browsing around and I was looking for one more item to make it up to $40 in order to utilize my voucher. Sophia and Meryl were very nice and tried to help me but they both chose Soap & Glory products one after the other lol. In the end I grabbed the lip balm cos I used up a tube before and I liked the minty feeling.

From Watson's (courtesy of Jen)L'oreal Infaillible Eyeshadows

After all the frenzied searching, I'm happy that I managed to get my hands on them. The quality is really nots bads!

I was originally on the look out for a dress watch when I saw this. This is considered rather sporty looking but I still think that it can pass off as one till I finally get my dream watch. Helps that there was a 20% off!
