Since before Christmas, I have had an outrageous number of items in my saved basket on ASOS. Let me put this out there - ASOS is a dangerous place. It is too good, and has too much stuff on, but everything is too nice to leave behind so...I bought the majority of my basket, spent my birthday money and probably even a smidge more.
The only positive I can think to point out is that everything was on the sale, and I had a sneaky ASOS Insider discount code which I was allowed to use on sale items! I've skimmed my basket down to show you my favourite bits of what I scouted from the sale!
1. I have been meaning to switch up my wardrobe for a while now, I'm very much a leggings/jeans girl because that's all that I own. One pair of good leggings, and one pair of good jeans. I know...deprived. So I bought this dress - it's the ASOS Smock Dress In Nepi and I bought mine in green. It also came in coral and a gorgeous blue, but I have a lot of this bright blue in my wardrobe so fancied a change. It's half price in the sale at £12.50.
2. This dress is the Motel Elsa Skull Dress. It's £35 down from £60, and I think is one of those patterns which are a bit deceptive. I think it looks like a nice lacey/paisley patterning, but on closer look, it's actually little skulls with a bit of a Mexican sugar skull feel. Really like this, and I will be wearing this on my next night out!
3. The item that has been in my basket the longest, and is my absolute favourite buy is this Evil Twin Buzz Kill Babydoll dress. I love the print on it, it looks like crazy storms with lightening. I'm a bit unsure if the fit will suit my figure, but I'm giving it a good go! I really hope I can keep it! It was the most expensive thing in my basket at £45, but it was down from £75.
4. The Lavish Alice Sweatshirt in Floral Print is something I've been looking at for a while too. I really love the bright blue rose print and think this would look nice with some leggings for the day, or even with my black jeans in the evening. They also have matching trousers which I'd love to try, but I just don't think that a print on my bottom half would look very flattering on my pear shape.
5. This is the Noisy May Harlequin Sweat. I think that I like this, I'm a little unsure so it may be something that I send back. But I need to see it in real life to decide if it's a real keeper. I like that the print is in a t-shirt shape, and it's not something I've ever really seen before.
6. You didn't think I'd not get a beauty buy in did you? I got this Nails Inc Kensington Caviar Top and Base Coat Duo for less than £14 with my extra discount, what a bargain. I've had a mini of the Kensington Caviar Top Coat before, so I'm pleased I managed to get a full size with the base coat for what is essentially free. It says this has sold out now, but keep your eyes peeled as it might come back!
7. My favourite of my ridiculous underwear top up was this ASOS Boudoir Floral set. The bra was a bargain at £8 and the matching bottoms were £4.50.

Did you get anything in the sale? What did I miss?
Edit: I had to send a few bits back! Noo! I was right about the fit for the Babydoll dress, and as much as I loved it, the shape of the dress just didn't flatter my figure at all! I also had to send back the Smock dress for the same reason, but the colour when it arrived was a lot darker than it looked in the picture, which was disappointing. The Motel dress was outrageously short, and by short, I mean it didn't even pull past my bum! It could have passed for a long top - had to go back. BUT. I absolutely love everything else, even the Noisy May sweat which is gorgeous!
