My latest ASOS buys...

So yes, I can't quit window shopping online and have succumbed to buying a couple of items from ASOS recently. To be fair however, I really needed these items cause most of my clothes don't fit me no more...



1. Knitted Striped Dress; 2. Wrap Dress

I just passed the halfway mark and I can't button my work pants and skirt any more. I bought myself the Belly Belt a few weeks ago but I feel so self-conscious walking around with my zip undone! So I thought now would be a good time to invest in some maternity dresses. You can imagine my excitement when I discovered that ASOS does maternity, woot woot!

I was ecstatic when the dresses finally arrived but unfortunately, it was short-lived. The Knitted Striped Dress turned out alright but I was really disappointed with the Wrap Dress. Firstly, the fit was not right at the bust area. There was just too much material there and it made me look really top heavy. Secondly, and the most disappointing part was that the draping at the side of the dress made me look HUGE (and I'm a size UK8)! It just did not flatter the bump at all... I mean, I know we're supposed to show off our bump 'loud n proud' but the dress made me look like I should have popped a month ago.

Oh well... Looks like my online window shopping will go on... Will update when I find nice maternity stuffs...

My "ASOS-fix"!

I've been a bit depressed about having to go into work so soon after the big day... So naturally, my mind starts to wander at the office and my fingers starts tapping on the keyboard and before I know it, I'm no longer looking at my (gazillion) emails and.... eh, how'd I get to www.asos.com :D Best part is, the SALE is on! Woot woot!

Some of my recent purchases...

I actually wanted this in Mustard but I had to settle for this  'Rabbit Grey' cause it was sold out. I thought this dress would be great to transition from work to after-work drinks.

I LURVE this skirt, especially the colour (Arabian Spice)!

Again, they ran out of the Nude colour that I wanted so I'll just have to work this dress with bold accessories.
p/s - I'm so into midi skirts/dresses right now.

So I'm now waiting as patiently as possible for my new goodies to arrive! Finally! New clothes to wear to work... exciting stuff!

ASOS has arrived...

To my doorstep, that is. My dresses from ASOS have finally arrived, and right on schedule! Will post pictures up for my review soon.

ASOS.com, anyone?

I've known about ASOS for quite some time now (like who doesn't, right)... But I've never actually ventured into the website before until sometime this year... I know, I'm sooo (in the words of Fergie) 2000 and late. I was looking for something to wear for a friend's wedding and cause I was so busy at work I didn't even have the time to go shopping, I decided to try out online shopping. That was when the frenzy began...

During my online window shopping frenzy, I discovered that ASOS actually has plenty of beautiful dresses at affordable prices. So when I found out recently that they were offering free shipping this month (that's right people, free shipping worldwide!), it didn't take me long to type in http://www.asos.com/ hehehe....

I settled on 2 dresses for me to wear for Xmas and New Years...



Darling Dress Mini 60s Shift with Lace Applique



I originally wanted this dress in navy but they ran out of my size so I settled for the cream instead, which I think is almost as pretty... It's also perfect cause I don't actually own any cream/white dresses... they're not forgiving ok! I love the lace applique detail on the sleeves and down the middle of the dress...



ASOS Pleated Chiffon Sleeve Shift Dress

Since I didn't get the other dress in navy, I decided to go for this ASOS dress.

I know they're both the same styles but I'm kindda into long sleeve shift dresses at the mo... don't ask why.. maybe it's cause I'm feeling fat... go figure.

My dresses are expected to arrive within 9 days (excluding weekends and bank holidays) from the date of shipping, which was last week. I seriously hope it makes it in time for Xmas!

Will post pictures up soon once I get them!

Now I just have to figure out what shoes do I wear them with....
