a confession

darlings, i have a secret. it's a pretty big one too...i mean, i wouldn't want the WHOLE world knowing, so i'll tell you guys...as long as you promise not to tell.

pinky swear? mmkay.

i'm a virgin.....an asos virgin

seriously. 

i have ALWAYS drooled over their website but never made the jump to buy anything. why? i don't know, honestly. i've always been sort of intimidated to be honest and i don't know why. 

i have ordered from the UK before - from topshop. but for some reason, i can never pull the trigger with asos. 

it seems like they have good customer service, a good return policy AAAAND pretty good prices for shipping...which is also really good because i think i remember them having higher shipping a while back. 

my asos virginity may be altered soon... because i'm absolutely smitten with this dress 


yumi contrast lace empire babydoll dress
found here

there may be no words to describe my love for this dress. it is perfection. i LOVE LOVE LOVE the detailing and i'm a complete sucker for black and white. i'm not sure if i'd ever be able to take this dress off...

like... i'm sort of obsessed (actually..i kind of love the yumi brand...as you can see from some of my picks below). i know i'm in love with something when i keep going back to it all day (lol) i'm especially obsessed with their super brilliant "catwalk" .. talk about an excellent marketing move!


here are some other things that have caught my eye from asos (clearly, you can tell that blizzard number 2432230432 in the northeast has me craving some summer clothes)


v-neck tie waist jersey dress
found here 

the product description says it is in the style of SATC. i LOVE that shade of pink!

yumi ruffle front hem dress
found here 

gorgeous detailing! i think it would look really fun with a bright pair of tights.



frill front strappy dress
found here 

clearly, i am attracted to their dresses. they have SUCH beautiful detailing and fabulous color selections!
 

yumi lace bib bell sleeve dress
found here 

another winner. seriously, i'd like this yumi brand to just adopt me. or dress me for the rest of my life. this is another dress i'd LOVE to wear. 

ps asos: i kind of love everything this model wears. she could convince me to buy a paper bag dress, i am sure.





peaches suede platform court shoe
found here 

one word...SQUEEEEEE! perfection. i've been looking for the perfect pair of pumps.


priya leather gladiator sling back shoe 
found here

these remind me of the stefanie heel from coach, which is super hard to find. i am on a search for the perfect pair of neutral heels. this MAY be them!



envelope slouch double chain bag
found here

love that color! and i'm a sucker for gold hardware.


washed floral holdall 
found here

while not an exact dupe, this bag is reminiscent of a coach bag i've had my eye on. i need a floral print bag for this spring/summer!

killah martie bag
found here 

first of all, if i owned this bag i'd be saying "KILLAAHH" all day. because let's admit it, it is so fun to say. i love everything about this bag.  


jessica kagan cushman "its good to be the queen" tote
found here

omg. the selection has such fabulous sayings! this HAS to be my favorite. you can't really appreciate the detailing from that picture though.


overknee socks
found here

THESE ARE VICTORIA BECKHAM STYLE SOCKS! oh my gawdd. i have a similiar pair of white socks that i used to wear with a mini skirt. such a cute style!

anatomicals snog me senseless lip balm
found here 

omg, this brand is vickyb approved too! that name is so so so adorable. 

 
eyeko fat balm
found here 

i love balms that can be used for both cheeks and lips!

bourjois menthol gloss
found here

i'm a sucker for menthol. i have a feeling i'd use this up in a week!

found here

HOW CUTE ARE THESE LITTLE BLACK DRESS BARBIES?! ...but i'm far past the point of playing with barbies...(right?)...(yep.)

I have a confession to make too... I am an ASOS virgin myself. I always lurk in their website but I don't buy anything.

I love those dresses... the black and white numbers are pretty fabulous.

ASOS is waiting for you... xoxo

So embarassing... I live in the UK but have never been to the Asos website. But will change this soon (and then come back with feedback).

I may or may not have bought one of the Little Black Dress Barbie's. I'm sorry, I adore them! I even found one that had bangs like me!

I have never shopped at ASOS either; but if you don't buy both of those Yumi dresses we may not be able to talk anymore. Seriously, those are PERFECT!!! :)

Never ordered from ASOS either. I' have a rather long wishlist though. Those Black Dress Barbies (I have quite a few) can be purchased at Target, Toys R Us and Barbie.com. No need to get those overseas.
