Mini Asos Haul!

Is there anything better than waking up to the parcel you ordered? Yesterday at around 1pm I placed a next day order with Asos, and at 9am this morning it arrived! I thought I'd show you all what I bought, especially as some of it is autumn/winter inspired. I hope you like it! Let me know if you'd like to see more hauls from me.

The image of this gorgeous clutch bag popped up in an Asos email I recieved recently, and it was love at first sight. I had to have it. For about three days I'd add it to my bag and not buy it, so yesterday I decided to finally do it; and I'm so glad I did. It's a beautiful array of cornflower blue, yellow, pink, peach and gold flowers, with added gems and beading. I know it's a little over-the-top, but it's certainly eye-catching, and will be perfect for evenings out and dinner dates. I thought it might be a little flimsy, but it seems pretty sturdy so far, although I guess I'll find out for definite after a few vodkas! Haha!

Leopard Print 'Simba' Heels
These perhaps might not be to everyone's taste, but I'm a big fan of chunky heels and subtle leopard print (except I do love leopard print coats) and felt these would easily fit into my wardrobe, particularly for autumn and winter. My feet are a little too high built if that makes sense, but I'm thinking if I wear a chunky pair of socks it could loosen them up a bit. What do you think?

Rock 'N' Rose Vintage Crescent Moon Earrings  
These are my ideal pair of earrings. They're so intricate and detailed and not heavy on the ears at all. I was actually considering getting a tattoo of a crescent moon (for personal reasons) but whilst I'm undecided, these earrings will definitely do. I can tell I'm going to be wearing these every day.

Cat Print Tights
Finally, I bought something quite fun. These will be perfect for autumn/winter to add something a little interesting to an outfit. I'm normally one to wear plain black 40 denier tights throughout winter, but this year I'd like to get into patterns. As these tights are quite subtle, it'll be the perfect place to start. I can't wait to wear these with chunky boots, a fur coat and a little dress!

    1. Yeah they are! Except they're a little tight around the leopard print bit, but I'm hoping I can stretch them a little and they'll be fine xx
