Mini ASOS Haul

I bought a few things from ASOS just over a week ago, with the intention of wearing them for my work experience, but unfortunately they didn't come in time. But i'm happy with what I ordered nonetheless, so I thought i'd share them with you!

The first thing I ordered was this pair of loafers by New Look. These were a pretty essential purchase as I've had to sadly part with a couple of my pairs of pumps lately that had become a bit too worse for wear. I thought these shoes would be great as brown loafers look great with everything from jeans to floral dresses, so I figured I would get a lot of use out of them. Also, they were only £16.19 with my myunidays student discount, which is a great deal. They look a lot more expensive than they were and I think the cute little tassels make them a little bit more interesting.

The next thing I ordered was from the ASOS own brand and it's this lovely sheer blouse, with scallop detailing and pastel blue embroidery. This blouse comes in two colours, cream and navy and they are currently on sale for £10 and £12.50 respectively, which is a great deal considering they originally retailed for £32. This blouse is very sheer, but would be fine with a plain white vest top underneath or perhaps paired with a pretty bralette for nights out. I'm a big fan of collars and I love the scalloped detail of this one as it makes a change from my regular collared blouses. I also love the subtle pastel blue embroidery, it's really pretty and girly. I can't wait to wear this blouse under cosy knitted jumpers in Autumn/Winter.

The final item that I purchased was this knitted jumper by Mango. It is also in the sale and is available in mint, which I opted for, as well as cream. It is on sale for just £12.50, a saving of over £20, which is such good value for a jumper of this quality. I wish that the photos did this jumper justice, because it is so well made and will definitely be a staple item in my wardrobe as the months get colder, without being too obviously autumnal, due to the lovely mint green colour. It looks great layered over the blouse and I can see myself wearing that combination a lot. I ordered a size small instead of an extra small, as in the photo of the model wearing it it looked quite tight-fitting and I wanted mine to be a little baggier. 



My photos don't accurately show the colour very well, but in real life the colour is much more like this:

This jumper is selling out fast, but they still have a few size and colour variations available, so check it out here

You can also currently get an extra 10% off of all sale items on ASOS with the promo code WOW10.

What do you think of the items I bought? Have you found any great ASOS sale finds recently?
