A Spring/Summer ASOS Haul


If ever I'm on the hunt on for a certain style of dress or an outfit for that special event, ASOS is always my first port of call. They sell so many wonderful brands, have regular sales and have even extended their returns period to 90 days while all this craziness is going on!


This romantic River Island floral dress is just stunning. The white and mauve pattern reminds me of a Reiss shirt dress from last year, but at a fraction of the price. This is a beautiful style of dress in which to work from home - glamorous yet extremely comfortable. It is a little sheer so make sure you wear appropriate underwear - in this picture I'm wearing a pair of nude no-VPL knickers from Calvin Klein and my trusty strapless bra from Bravissimo and I don't think you can see them at all!


There is a matching fabric belt that comes with the dress but instead, I've paired it with this tan crocodile-effect belt from Accessorize. I love the Western vibe it brings to this outfit. The Western trend is alive and well and because this is an understated take on the trend, you could carry on wearing this belt long after the trend is over.

Dune always delivers on quality dupes for seasonal 'it' pieces so I snapped up these Hermes-inspired sandals in the sale. I regularly find Dune's products to be of excellent quality at a reasonable price. The sandals looked just how I wanted, when I took the dog out for our daily exercise, I did find the left shoe rubbed the side of my foot. This is perhaps a pair of sandals to wear poolside rather than on a day out. Side note - the right shoe was fine so I think my feet are completely different sizes! 


A statement pair of earrings are the perfect finishing touch to any outfit. I was concerned when I opened these Only Butika pearl earrings that they did look quite poor quality, but once I saw them against the rest of the outfit I was so pleased. They are a funky little design - I love the hammered metal and think I will get a lot of wear out of these. I got my ears pierced less than a year ago (at the grand old age of 28!) so these are the first pair of really fun earrings I've bought, since you're advised to stick to higher-quality materials for the first few months. I'm excited to buy a whole host of statement drop earrings after these!

Thank you for reading this blog post lovelies!
