Christmas Dresses!

gogo

So its that time again, the christmas party is just around the corner.
Got my dress today, have two parties - my own, and my OH, his is black tie so was looking for something to do both and settled on a little black dress, trying to play it safe. Seen this on the coast website and picked it up today in Newbridge. (although paid 22 euro extra in the shop:()

What do you think, anyone else got there's yet?

www.asos.com has some gorgeous dresses. theres loads im in love with at the moment & trying to decide between.

Loads of the shops seem to be having sales are special 20% off deals on dresses because there's not much cash going around lately. I was cruising the high street shops on friday and M&S, Wallis, Warehouse and Topshop are all doing discounts.

There's a sale/clearance section on asos which is really good if you have some time on your hands to pick out the good from the stuff that's left over from summer or in teeny sizes. You usually find a few good things in any size on it.:D

That first dress is lovely really nice shape
I saw one in a-wear, i was thinking of wearing it with black tights underneath :

Has anyone experience of buyng online at asos? How much does the shipping cost? I went thru the steps to pay but looks like i have to give credit card details before i'll see how much shipping will cost

I'm curious about this too, was going to buy something but backed out when it asked for card details before showing me the total. Think they're fairly reputable though, I've only ever heard good things.

Shipping's not bad at all on ASOS. I shop from them a lot.

You're shown the shipping before you confirm the order (to be honest I thought it was even before the card details as I'm fairly careful about that).

They're also very good with returns for any reason even on sale items and refund you the postage.

They stock Benefit Makeup now, which with the exchange rate is very decent value and you don't have the spectre of customs hanging over you. They don't have the entire range but it ain't bad.

I got my party dress from their sale section for £15 and am deloirah with it.

www.adverts.ie has some lovely dresses for sale on there at the moment, some brand new. its part of the boards.ie site. good for some bargains.

not sure cause my friend & i made our order together to share delivery charges, think it cost me about 6euro. but she buys stuff regularly from them so i dont think its too much, i cant see her doing it so often if it was.

I shop from them all the time, it gets quite addictive tbh! You save so much money though! Shipping is quite cheap, don't have an exact price for you cause it depends on the size of your parcel. Should be in the FAQ section of the site anyway.

I have never been refunded the postage on this. Is this right? I buy from the quite regularly and wouldn't have a bad thing to say about the site.

Das Kitty

Yeah, they gave me back €8 for the last thing I sent back (i.e. 8 more than the cost of the items). They did the same for a pair of jeans himself returned.

Dunno if it's on their site as something they do though...

Didnt spend too much on 1st purchase!postage cost bout €6, they say couriers deliver, not postal system, what way have they delivered to others?

Actually I've been thinking about it, it didn't say that this was postage refund on it but I deffo got more back than I should have (even in the sterling amount), not sure what else it could be other than postage...
