ASOS Haul - My Wedding Guest Outfit

Hello readers! :)

As summer comes around there happen to be a lot of wedding invites being sent out, and I know I've had a few this year, including my sisters wedding in August. Exciting!

I wanted to share with you a particular wedding guest outfit I am so gutted I didn't actually get to wear! I bought this outfit from ASOS, waited over a week for it to arrive, and then on the day of the wedding I was told they were having courier issues and that it wouldn't arrive on time :(

I was pretty disappointed with the whole ASOS experience to be honest, as nobody from their Customer Service department got back to me for ages and then when they finally did it was too late. However, I have shopped with ASOS for SEVEN YEARS (they told me that in an email recently, I haven't been keeping count!), so I can't really complain as every other order has been on time.

I actually returned this outfit, so it may seem strange to do a blog post on a haul when I actually returned everything, but although the outfit was gorgeous, I was so disappointed with my ASOS experience, especially when I had paid over £100, and I didn't really want to keep any of it, especially when the sole purpose of buying it was wasted.

However, this outfit is too good not to blog about, although I have to apologise that the images are not great as my camera had broken so I had to snap the photos on my iPhone, so I will also link you to the items so you can see what they look like online- they're all from ASOS!

My wedding guest outfit idea was actually inspired by a blogger I saw online, I can't remember who she is but I saved the photos of the outfit she wore and absolutely loved the look:

I think this is a really elegant look, and I know monochrome is in fashion at the moment- and you can never go wrong wearing black and white!

The dress itself is the Stripe Swing dress  from ASOS for £75:

Then the crop top I found to wear on top was the ASOS 90's Crop Top, £5 (was £10):

And finally the shoes I bought are the ASOS Stanley Pointed Heels, Now £20 (were £32 when I bought them!):

The photos I took of the outfit are sadly no where near as good as the blogger's photo above, they mainly show what the dress looks like rather than what it looked like on me, but I will post them anyway!

The dress felt so beautiful on and was really flattering with the horizontal stripes. The shoes felt comfortable enough- and I'm not a big heels fan, and you can never go wrong with black shoes! The crop top was really comfortable too and is also available in petite!

I have a new camera now so I'm looking forward to sharing more hauls with better photos, again sorry for the awful quality of these photos, but I had to share my haul with you even if it was using awful iPhone photos!

I hope you enjoyed this post, why not leave me a comment to let me know if you liked the outfit or not, I'd love to hear from you :)

Lots of love,

Samantha Dawn
