Print Madness with ASOS

If you don't love ASOS.. then WHO ARE YOU? Lol jks.

For those of you who don't know.. I love prints. And ASOS.

It all started back in 2008 when I started to gain some sort of fashion sense (goodbye tracksuits and t shirts and helloooo fashion). I hopped onto the computer and decided to search the web and somehow, just somehow I came across ASOS. I think it was destiny. ASOS is where my first online shopping experience began. I remember searching through pages and pages of different brands of clothing and accessories and book marking the web page so I could purchase these amazing items when I had the ching ching (before I knew of saving the item for later).

Now, I'm a sucker for bargains. I believe that no matter how cheap a piece of clothing may be, it's worth it if you can make it work or if you simply love it! ASOS warmed my money saving heart when I saw how amazing some pieces were and yet affordable! And then it began. Numerous amounts of silver toned packages arriving at my house, my mother screaming "MAYO, vot you buy dis time?" (implement European accent lol)...yep, it became a habit. Don't get me wrong, as soon as my mother saw what piece I purchased and how cheap it was she nodded her head and said "dat iz my girl" (implement European accent, again lol). So I thought I'd dedicate this post to my first love, ASOS.

Thank you for allowing me to be the only girl out of my clique to say "Oh this? I bought it from ASOS" while they looked at me in bewilderment. Thank you for allowing me to expand my wardrobe on a minimal budget and thank you.. Ok I'll stop now, this is getting full on. I think I just had a random Oscars moment just then lol, anywhoopygoldburg, you get my point!

Without further ado, here is my ASOS Wish List! This specific wish list is focusing on PRINT MADNESS! (Yes, there will be more ASOS posts focusing on a particular theme.. I'm thinking METALLIC next)

SWEAT IT OUT GIRL

And no, I don't mean at the gym.

 

It's getting oddly cold these days.. (note: not really anything odd about it because it's now autumn, anywhooo lol). You rummage through your wardrobe trying to find something to wear. What scarf matches with what jacket, what jacket matches with what beanie. Look, all you need to do is just SWEAT IT OUT GIRL (see what I did there *nudge nudge*). Seriously, as it gets colder (I know all you American's are drowing in coconut oil and tanning right now lol) all I can think about are knits and SWEATSHIRTS. Oh lawdy lawd, do I love sweatshirts. I love that a sweatshirt can ultimately make your outfit without having to try, at all. So this morning I was in sweatshirt kill mode (in other words, screen shot to paste mode lol), hunting some of my favourite sweatshirts and gee, I was in heaven. I found soooo many beautiful coloured knits and edgy printed sweatshirts that I had to come to the conclusion of selecting ten. These are in NO order of most favourite to least, I tried to colour coordinate them instead, fail whale lol.

Sweat it out ladies.

 

Much love,
Maya.
