Apple is having a sale !

Alright, so I received and e-mail from PopSugar yesterday, that Apple was supposedly having a sale. - They wrote that it's a one day sale only, which means you can only save today!

I was definitely interested, as I am considering buying a new iPod, but I'm sort of disappointed. It's not a major sale, you don't save that much.. But if you are planning on buying something from Apple anyway, you might as well buy it today, plus you get the free engraving..

Latest Purchase # 4

I'm spending a lot of time on eBay at the moment. - They say it's addictive, it certainly is!

I've just purchased two bracelets and one pair of earrings.
I fell in love with the Somnus Bracelet that I saw in the Taiwanese drama My Lucky Star, so I decided to buy it. I have been watching it since forever, so I finally bought it, and I'm so happy I did, because I can't wait to receive it.

The seller is btw, the sweetest person ever! She's really kind and highly recommended, I also bought my Stairway To Heaven lovers necklace from her.

Visit her store for any jewellery seen on Korean or Taiwanese dramas, or just if you're looking for something nice.

I bought the bracelet with the free gift and earrings for the "buy it now" price of $29,99, but it's also available for bidding at $22,99

Somnus Bracelet:



















The handcuff bracelet (free gift) that resembles the one Ah Xing from MLS designed.
















And finally, but not least the blue sapphire earrings that Tian Qi's mom gave him in MLS.

I also bought some other minor things:
A book named "Wild Swans" By Jung Chang
My colleague recommended it to me, and so far I think it's really good! I bought it at The Book Depository for around £7.51 which is really cheap! (Plus, they have free worldwide shipping!)

Then I bought a new cleanser from Clarins.
The Pure Melt Cleaning Gel that I bought for almost half the price of what it retails at in Denmark. I bought it from this new store that I discovered: FEEL UNIQUE (that also offers free worldwide shipping!)

I haven't bought any clothes lately, but I have few items on my eBay watchlist..

ASOS Online Shop Review

I've decided to share my experience on various online shops, and I'll start with ASOS. I'll mention the good and bad, because then you hear about the online shop from someone who has tried it before.

Please note that the review beneath, is my own opinion, and doesn't necessarily reflect all ASOS' customer's opinion.

Website: ASOS.com
Sells: Designer clothes (RED Line), "the look for less" clothes - meaning clothes that has been seen on celebrities, and ASOS has produced something similar, accessories, shoes, and gifts.
Price: Varies, their RED line is "famous" for being cheaper than elsewhere, while some of their items are fairly expensive, and some are cheap. They have their "Sale" category, and there are always a lot of items available there.
Quality: Depends, IMO (in my opinion), the quality of ASOS-produced clothes is often disappointing me, because it looks fancy, but in the end it's often polyester or very thin silk. But, they also have decent quality clothes from e.g. other brands that they just sell.
Shipping: It cost either £5 if you buy little (e.g. two items or so), and a flat rate of £12 for orders with more items.

I have been a customer at ASOS for about 2 years, and I must say I've had mixed experiences. When I first ordered from them, I was amazed by the super quick delivery (it cost me £12), but it was worth it because it came within a couple of days. I will however also mention that I've been disappointed several times by the terrible quality. I looked at pictures and it all looked great, but when I received the item it was very thin.

I was so satisfied with ASOS that I ordered again within 2 weeks. But then for a period I didn't shop online, but less than a year ago, I ordered again and from that moment I experienced terrible customer service.

Experience no 1. I placed an order with my sister & friend, and when they tried to deliver it here in Denmark none of us were home, so their courier company "GLS" sent a letter asking us to either choose another address or agree on a day where someone would be home. So we decided to move the address, and my friend and I were home the whole day from 8 AM - 5.30 PM. But I never received my package, I called them around 3 PM and she informed me that the package was in the truck and they would deliver it later. - But they still didn't.

So next day I called them again and she told me the package was attempted delivered at around 8.30 AM and now I would have to pick it up in a city that was 1 hour by train away from my home. I was so angry I never picked up the package, so GLS mailed it back to ASOS and after much struggle, they gave me back my money.

Experience no 2. I gave them another chance about 1 month later, and I waited for my package for almost two weeks, then I contacted ASOS by mail, and after many e-mails, the lady told me they had lost the package. So I didn't receive any items there.

But last week, I tried my luck again, and ordered three items. I received it after approx. 1 week and luckily all the items were intact.

Good features on the website:

• The pictures are quite clear and they zoom in on small details.
• On some of the items, they have models modelling them on the runway, so you see it on an actual person - this gives you the opportunity to see small details and e.g. whether the material is thin.
• You can cancel your order within the first hour after the order has been placed.

Missing features on the website:

• They don't provide a direct number for you to call them in case of missing order, or the like. They only have e-mail.
• They don't have the runway video on items from their RED line.
• You have to mail them to get the track & trace number - they don't automatically provide it for you.

Overall I'll give it 5 out of 10 because of their (often) great design, for their RED line (that I'm crazy about), but not more because of relatively poor customer service and terrible courier company - in Denmark. The prices are IMO quite high considering the polyester material.

Spotted on ASOS # 1

I spotted this gorgeous dress on ASOS a while ago. It's from their RED Line and from the brand Unique Boutique. It's amazingly beautiful, too bad the fabric looks bad. It's polyester and I have bad experience with ASOS' polyester. - I wouldn't want to pay £38 for a polyester dress.

But drooling over the design is okay..




















In case you are interested anyway, it's sold out right now. But I saw it there this morning, check this link: ASOS

Latest Purchase # 3

Sorry for being MIA, been busy with a million things.

Yesterday, I purchased something from ASOS - even though they always, always disappoint me with something, either the delivery, the actual purchase or something else, I always find myself giving them another chance.

Hopefully they have changed their courier company in Denmark - last time I checked it was GLS and that sucks, so bad ! - They practically only deliver half the time.

Purchase # 1 - lovely silk dress from their RED line.
It's from the British brand TFNC and it only cost me £ 18 !I love the colour !
Interested? - Check this link: ASOS TFNC Dress

Purchase # 2 - another silk dress
This dress is from the brand Gestuz
A gorgeous black silk dress, hopefully the fabric isn't too thin, it cost which £28 - so that isn't too bad for a silk dress !
It's sold out right now, but you can check back in a couple of hours/days and it might be back: Check this link: ASOS Gestuz Silk Dress
