Last week DF and I took 1 day off work (we are helping his parents with the family business while we are here) to visit Bonaire, a nearby island that is just a short 10-minute flight away.
ASOS Size Tape
Sep 7, 2012
I was just browsing through ASOS website today when I noticed that there is something new...a 'SIZE TAPE' tab under 'Size Guide'. I cannot express how happy I am that ASOS has finally made an effort to go a step further for its customers, something that many online retailers should follow suit. Basically, the size tape from ASOS will help you choose the right fit based on colour instead of by size. The concept of this size tape is explained in this video. I immediately ordered my free ASOS size tape and it will take 10-14 days until I receive it so for now, I remain optimistic. Hopefully this 'size tape' will finally end the endless sizing doubts going back and forth in my head each time I want to order a new item (may it be a style or item of clothing from a brand I have never purchased before) from ASOS.
From past experiences, I can honestly say that the fit of ASOS clothing is fairly consistent. I am mostly a size 6 (for both normal and Petite), however, for high waist pants/skirts or dresses with back zippers and tight waistline sometimes I need a size 8 just to be able to zip it up. I have purchased jeans from ASOS only twice (one of which I had to return as the jeans did not fit) due to me being unsure of the sizing and I would very much like to purchase more in the future because they offer such a wide range of colours and size. If the Size Tape is accurate, it will make my online shopping experience much more enjoyable and hassle free.

Favourite looks from Venice Film Festival

Fiammetta Cicogna wore this breathtakingly gorgeous gown by Alberta Ferretti for the Venice Film Festival premiere of "The Reluctant Fundamentalist" and all I can say is..wow!! I love the intricate lace applique and mesh detail which is often featured in many Marchesa and Elie Saab gowns, giving them an amazingly soft and ethereal look. The pink waistband completes the look.
