More Erin Louise and another ASOS order

I ordered two more Erin Louise singlets.  The ones that I bought at the Handmade Markets were so pretty, but as they were more glamourous going out singlets, I wanted to pick up a couple of casual ones.  Even though at a cost of $72 (two for $60 plus $12 delivery), this was easily justified as I am moving to a place of all year warmer weather, whiche means I will wear them to death - if I was still in the chilly place I probably wouldnt get the wear worth out of them.  I was pleased as punch to when I went to download the images of them from the order album - and they are no longer being sold! Yay now I have limited edition Erin Louise singlets ;-).  I am still lemming more as they are so pretty pretty, but this will do for now!

This is a light grey singlet with the tiger/flowery strap.  At the Handmade Markets they had this in white in my size, but not in gray - they gray looked alot better. 









This isnt the greatest photo (I live in the darkest apartment - soon to change!).  Its salmon pink singlet with the white frill in the centre.  The quality of Erin Louise's singlets are awesome as well.







If ASOS really is the devil, its a very effective and rewarding one.  I just put in another order as I am staying longer at work now so need some work maternity clothes (will post on other blog about maternity clothing), chucked in a extra pretty dress for after baby cause it was so cheap and pretty!

Asos and arrgh to ordering from dodge websites!

A week after my laptop battery charger died, I still don't have the new charger I ordered. As soon as it died a week ago I jumped on my Iphone googled websites that sold replacement chargers for my laptop and ordered and paid for one. Now, the website is literally called laptop batteries Australia, it said same day shipping and all currency was in aus dollars and postage options were only aus post. On Friday when it hadn't turned up I sent an email, turns out it's a Hong Kong company! So it only left Hong Kong on Sat :-(. The said shipping takes 3-12 days. It is now SEVEN working days after ordering and no laptop charger turned up today :-(.  Frustration doesnt even begin to describe how I am feeling, especially as now I have had time to look at other website I could of got one the next day.

I recieved this pony belt from ASOS:


This belt is a waist belt and I paid $10 for it, it was an impulse buy and I was thinking what the hell did I buy a pony belt for lol.  But its awesome, it will go with a few work outfits plus fits over my baby bump in a Maxi perfectly.  Love love love.  I am yet to be let down by ASOS :-).

The day my laptop died

Was the day my Blogger world died! Sad Face :-(. As previously posted my laptop was on it's way out and I was biding my time waiting for an IPad. Well it died - not how expected though, the battery charger just stop working. So I ordered another one and am praying it comes in the mail tomorrow! This has also impacted on my ability to work on the last assignment that is due, I have an extension till the end of the week - eek! I am currently using my iPhone, which is a little but tiny to blog on but times are tough!

The jewellery project continues, however since I can't add photos using iPhone, they will have to wait until the laptop gets revived. I also will update on more ASOS anoynomous purchases - unlike uploading photos to blogger via iPhone, buying asos on the iPhone is quite easy ;-). And yes I see the irony that I've probably spent my iPad money at Asos and now don't have a computer device!

I just want an Ipad 2! And Asos is still the devil

Currently the laptop I am using is dying a slow and painful death.  Recently it has decided not to connect to my Iphone personal hotspot anymore so I cant use the massive amount of data I have on that now! grr. It also takes hours to blog and do basic stuff.  I really just want an Ipad 2 (64gb WiiFi please!).  Hubby says wait though.  I want an Ipad2 for a number of main reasons:

• blogging
• reading e-books on Kindle
• reading my magazine subcriptions on the ipad (both glamour and allure send me my mag in the mail but I can access it via the ipad as well).
• reading blogs :-)

The laptop is to hard to read Ebooks on and although I want a Kindle, I need the IPad to blog on and read magazine subscriptions so it makes sense to just get the Ipad 2.


This reminds me of the time when I really wanted to upgrade to the Iphone 4 and had to wait for that as well,  my main whinge at the time was that I just wanted an Iphone 4 - see the funniest youtube video below about it:

Asos is having a sale (another one) and still has free shipping.  Apparantly they had an 80% off one early this morning but I missed, damn sleep and all.  Now they have another one starting tomorrow.  I am ashamed that I already have a bag of stuff ready to purchase, I am not sure how long the sale goes for but I cannot afford until pay day which is some days away.  eeek.

Rainbows, Flowers and ASOS

It is hard to believe that only two weekends ago,the weather was so beautiful, here is a picture I took on a beautiful Sunday in September.  Skip to the last day of September and the weather is poo!  However in the midst of a dreadful day I saw a beautiful spectacular rainbow, the best I have ever seen!  :-).  Today I had to buy a belly belt for my baby bump off ASOS, and of course to help justify them making their free delivery for a $10 item, I chucked in this cute belt below, it will belt my maxi dresses nicely!  Seriously though, no more ASOS for me! (heard this before??).

Things beginning with A

A is for ASOS. Today I got an ASOS parcel (only one to go but that will be on my other blog).  It had a Maternity dress (that I will review on other blog) and two necklaces:

 Both necklaces came well protected in little ASOS boxes, I was very impressed with that.

This necklace was $7.19.  It was described as rock crystal brown.  So its totally not a brown crystal rock - its an amethyst crystal- purple!  It has a big bling gold chain like picture shows and its bigger than I thought. Luckily even though its not what I pictured when I purchased, I love it!! Its not as casual as I thought it would be,  it will really dress up an outfit.  So even though its not what I thought it was I am a very happy customer.

 This was $5.59.  It is exactly as described and I love it as well.  So happy with these fantastic bargains.










A is for Adidas.  I love these Jeremy Scott Adidas shoes to death.  Many people do not, they are haters ;-P.

 

I bought these over two years ago from a random online site in China after seeing Katy Perry wearing a pair.  They are some kind of awesome and I have no doubt they are fulfilling my teenage dreams of having a pair of these but I think still they rock.  Need to be worn with an air of coolness and the understanding that only the awesome people get how cool they are.  I love Adidas in general, here is a pic of Katy Perry and Jeremy Scott  - Jeremy is the designer who amped up the Adidas cool meter and Katy featured in their campaign:

free stuff and cheap stuff - lots of stuff!

Last couple of days I had two emails from different magazines with a voucher to pick up the new eli saab sample perfume from Myers.  So I popped in and grabbed them, yay for nice perfume vial samples :-).

After buying heaps of cheap maternity clothes from ASOS and getting the delivery this week quickly and they were awesome, I couldnt resist having another peak today at their sale stock and I picked up some more cheapies.  With free delivery its to tempting, so now I am just going to stay off ASOS for awhile I think:

This was $6!! reduced from $20  I do see awesome bargains like this in Lovista/Collete/Diva but they wouldnt be any cheaper than this and I havent seen this in store in Aus either.

This necklace was $8!  I have been lemming some kind of long chain amber/rock necklace and had recently spotted one at the Bondi markets that I had wanted (it was $75).  Soo happy, but no more ASOS! I popped in a $25 long black maternity maxi dress as well just for safe measure (that post is for my baby blog).







Just for good measure I stopped into Sportsgirl 'just for a look' after swearing off 'just having a look' for the next two weeks - they have just started their 50% off already reduced stock sale.  How can heaven be so guilt inducing!  I only spent $47 (making a shopping total of $84 for a two week period - I have no $$ left to even accidently spend!), so really its not toooo bad.  Sportsgirl drives me nuts that they wont let you save a pic from their email (or perhaps I am not tech savvy enough to work it out).  I will have to take pics and post tomorrow :-).
