One of my loves

Listen up peeps, sharing a little secret here. Are you all ready... Well i just wanted to get it off my chest that i love ASOS. It started with a little crush but has now flourished into a long lasting, comforting and loving relationship ;)

I discovered this little (online) treasure island about 5 years ago and remember thinking to myself why is this online store so cheap... I ended up concluding that there quality of clothes must be very low and left it at that. However a few weeks later i was in desperate need of a maxi dress and by chance came across a gorgeous dress on ASOS which seemed perfect. Half unsure, I ordered the dress with next day delivery and not only did the dress arrive early next morning, it managed to put a whole new meaning to ordering stuff online. My package arrived gorgeously packed with an ASOS magazine and wait for it TWO CHOCOLATE BARS... can you imagine how i felt??? A new dress and chocolates, i was over the moon really. As for the quality of their clothes, i was proven wrong because i still own that dress after so many years.

ASOS has come a long long way since then, and its safe to say that they produce new designs by the nano second. It is now UK's largest online store. Their collection now consists of curve which is aimed at plus sizes and a very trendy maternity line. However what i love most about them is that you are able to see all their clothes 'modeled on a catwalk', which gives you a far better idea about the cut and shape of clothing than seeing them modeled on mannequins, as is the norm with most online stores. You also get detailed information about the clothing like the material, care instructions and the length. Finally i love that they state what size the model is wearing rather than making the customer guess whether a dress looks only flowy because the model is wearing it three sizes bigger than her actual size. Oh and the fact that their customer service is great and postage and returns is free doesn't hurt either.

You only need to check out the most popular fashion blogs to see that almost all the fashionistas are singing praises for ASOS. Whats more is that they now stock a lot of the popular brands like french connection, river island, ted baker, etc... Their sales are also great with many items up to 80% off. So if you haven't ordered from them yet, i suggest you take a cuppa, sit back and browse the website for yourself...
