Hello Lovelies!
I ordered this laptop case with 2 more items- Dr. Bronners Naked Organic Lip Balm and River Island Olivia Sunglasses (Picture not taken).
It is really of good quality, very sturdy and it's a- carry your world around in kinda bag lol. I like how the animal print is there in bits and pieces, very cute :D. This bag is perfect for the times i need to travel overnight with clothes or just when i have to carry my laptop. It's so spacious but the only con is that it has no compartments, only side zips and pockets, sucks when you carry tons of stuff and you can't find things you need without a good digging.
Here is my asos haul but before i begin i'd like to mention a few things:
- I ordered almost most of the items in separate orders each unless mentioned otherwise. It is always safer to get a small order- each items separately then one big order with several items with a higher value, which will attract higher customs!
- The custom duty is 'apparently' levied on one single transaction/order of Rs. 10,000 and above. I say apparently because i have been charged for much much less so you never know..
- All my orders are international standard free shipping unless mentioned otherwise.
- The orders arrived between 2-4 weeks (yes Indian customs tend to hold items causing delays!)
- Yes i did pay customs on most, even though custom duty is levied on Rs.10,000 and above...i don't know why but they charge me for as little as 15 pounds! Is it because i order frequently? i don't know why but they do and i have accepted that now. If you want to ask any questions regarding my experience with Indian Customs while ordering from Asos then please do comment below.
- Asos refunds money if the item has not been delivered to you. We can even return an item for a refund, if we are dissatisfied with the fit/quality/colour or any other reason but the return postal charges, which i might add are high, have to be bared by us.
Let's get started...
Asos Heart Print Laptop Cover
Very good quality, i love the gold detail zip...my mac is very happy residing in this cover!
French Connection Floral Cut-out Swimsuit
I ordered this swimsuit with a Carmex MoisturePlus Hydrating lip balm (Picture not taken).
Summer is here, need to beat this scorching heat with a lazy day by the pool...*bliss*.
I really like the side cut out and fit, it is very flattering. While browsing the website, most of the swimsuits were not padded, tragic i know and i for one cannot fathom wearing one without it. One of the major reasons i got this, apart from it's sheer loveliness, is the frills on the top, it covers the need for it, how smart of me ;D
The straps are detachable and full cut briefs, just purrfect!
Gorgeous colourful print! As a thumb rule, one should always get swimsuit one size bigger..and i am glad i did, fits perfectly :D
Asos Jewellery arrived in these nice sturdy black boxes, very classy. i have so many of these to store my jewellery in... yay!
Asos Pack of Five Neon Chain Bracelet
I ordered this with a pair of 'headphone happy stud earing set' (picture not taken)
Lovely colours,yea? My favourite is the gold one, i think it will look super cute paired with a watch..
Asos Earings
I ordered these two earrings together, one black feather and the other pink feather along with the diamond stud one (below). Unfortunately the picture of the pink feather earing disappeared :(
These are so gorgeous! i am in love with them, they are huge..great statement feather earings.
I love these too, very elegant. They are quite big in size for stud earings (check out the ring in comparison) but thats the beauty of it! Very bling.Very shiny.
Asos Anchor Chain Hairband
Lovely gold chain hair band, the tiny anchors are just too cute. i ordered this along with a tiny pearl/skull pendant chain (Picture not taken).
Paul's Boutique Leopard Bag
A couple of friends were coming down from the U.S, so i got this delivered there along with a pair of pencil heel suede black pumps (picture not taken) and got them once they were here . I really did not want to take the chance with indian customs, with my luck i am sure i'd have to shell out quite a bit! This was express delivery and arrived there in like 3 days.
The bag is quite huge..it could engulf a petite girl, like seriously!
Every Paul's Boutique Bag comes with a different charm, they look cute but tend to border on childish. I got rid of few of the things hanging on mine like the ribbons and pieces of colourful cloth.
The cloth inside is a very pretty monogramed patterned bright pink.
The bottom of the bag has these gold studs.
Jemma Kidd Mannequin Skin Perfector Kit Set
This was a set that included the mannequin skin perfector kit (above) and the mannequin skin complexion enchancer (below). It features 4 complexion correcting colours in one little compact. I haven't use this kit much except the highlighter.
JK Mannequin Skin Complexion Enhancer
I really like this product and use it as a highlighter for my cheeks.
The variety on Asos is awesome and they generally have amazing sales going on too! The only downer is INDIAN CUSTOMS and well obviously the delivery isn't that great too with all the delays and all (argh) but now i have made peace with 'patience' while ordering from this website. There have also been times (make that plenty of times) when the orders have been misplaced/lost but nothing to fear since they refund the money.
I really enjoy ordering from Asos and even get my friends birthday presents from there, though i need to order a good amount of time in advance for it to arrive in time for the birthdays (am i lazy or what).
So that's all for now...i have ordered for the Laqa Paradise City Lip Crayon set and Dr. Bronners Peppermint Lip Balm, can't wait for it to arrive! I am contemplating to get the Pixi Brilliance Lip Tint Balm in craving coral since my pretty pink is getting really tiny but i guess i will wait for the Laqa Lip crayons to arrive before i take the plunge for Pixi again. I really love lip crayons/chubby sticks, don't you?
Do comment likes/questions/answers/just like that/say hello.
Ok tata bye bye i am going to work on another post before i hit the sack..zzzz
Have a great day!
Ps: Oh I found my next post topic, it has to be Asos clothing haul/collection...!!
*UPDATE*
Just dropped in to post a picture of the custom duty bill/receipt of some lip balms (Dr.Bronner Organic Lip Balm) i ordered from Asos worth 15pounds.
