The Last Minute Shopper

Published on Friday 18th December 2009

Why is it that whenever I have a party to attend I always leave it to the last minute to buy something? Since I started my business my wardrobe has taken the brunt of it. When I get an invitation I always shudder at the thought of what I am going to wear.

Picture this: a few days before the party, I am running in and out of Zara, H&M, Reiss, & Ted Baker trying desperately to find a cute LBD that will look fabulous for the upcoming party and other holiday gatherings.

Of course, nothing caught my eye. I began to get a little bit panicky, but then I remembered ASOS. With my trusty little PC notebook in my bag (sad I know), I parked myself in Starbucks with a large Americano and started surfing.

Within a couple of minutes, I found the perfect LBD that will undoubtedly keep my wardrobe looking chic. Seeing as my order was over £100 I got free next day delivery...perfect!

When the doorbell rang the next day, my dress from ASOS was there waiting for me. And it was absolutely perfect! Needless to say, I received quite a few compliments at the party. It’s amazing what an LBD can do for your confidence and even better when it can be bought at the click of the mouse!
