Asos had a sale...

March 19, 2013


I love Asos, I'm a self-confessed asos-holic, but I feel a serious rant coming on. I always spend quite a bit in the Asos sale as I find they have some bargains and the clothes are good quality, but I'm not happy this time. One, they forgot the compact mirror I ordered and two they forgot to include my returns form as well as the delivery being  a day late! I really want to return the pink skirt as it makes me look a hundred times bigger than I actually am, so now I have to go to the hassle of printing off a returns form, when my printer is broke! Okay, so rant over and on to the haul. All links are in the captions.

Nip+Fab Party Rescue Kit - £8.50
Pixi Pretty Perfect Make up Set - £10.50
Nip+Fab are a brand I've been intrigued about for a while, so I was excited when I seen this set at such a good price. I'm a firm red lip and nail lover, so I had to snap the Pixi set up and I've heard brilliant things about the brand, so expect a review soon.

Asos mock ankle sock tights - £8      //      House of Holland suspender tights - £12
The House of Holland tights are actually on sale for £6 now so definitely pick them up as they look great for a night out with a plain dress. I'm a massive patterned tights fan and since the weather has decided it's not going to embrace Spring, tights are still an essential!
Mango "it" girl top- £8.99      //      Asos cropeed striped tee-£15      //      I blank you vest top-£12
I'd love to rave about each of these tops. I really need more tops as I have lots of skirts, shorts, disco pants and all that jazz, yet nothing to wear with these. I love wearing  a black vest top under the crop, tucked into my disco pants and then just throwing the top on for a monochrome look.

Asos Skater Skirt - £14      //      Oh my Love tutu skirt - £18.50
This skirt is actually a bright red, but it photographed pink and is made of a lovely jersey material. On the other hand, this tutu skirt I'm not a massive fan of. It is incredibly unflattering and I will be returning it as soon as I can get my returns form printed.

Asos mirror - £8 
This is actually now £6 on sale, so snap it up while you can. This mirror was also what was left out of my order. All I had to do was email the customer service team, they were really quick at sending out another one and mistakes do be made, but I was still a little annoyed. I really wanted a mirror just to be able to keep in my bag, for when I have products with no mirror.

So basically, there was a bit of everything in this post, make-up, skincare, clothes, accessories, raves and a a rant all in one; so if you made it this far you deserve a pat on the back and a cup of tea!  Now, I'm going to go cry at my bank balance (or lack of it)! 

What do you think of my haul?

  21. I love Asos too! I've only ever had one issue, and they help resolve it with a little pushing from my part. USPS (I have so many issues with them, I rarely use them to ship... rather pay $20+ at FedEx) Anyway USPS said my package was 'undeliverable as addressed', and happened to 'lose' my package upon return to Asos. Asos ended up refunding me despite never receiving the package back. I wouldn't say amazing customer service, but decent enough. I had to talk to 4-5 different people over the course of a few days to resolve the issue.

  30. That's such a shame about the returns form and the mirror!
    Such a shame about the skirt also, I hate it when something looks gorgeous on the model but just doesn't suit your figure!
