Haul: Current trends for summer

summer haul
ASOS, EBAY, URBAN OUTFITTERS

We have finally seen the transition from spring to summer arrive, the sun has been beaming and the weather forecast has been displaying the highest degrees this year. I have barely any summer appropriate clothing at present, so I was casually browsing through a few websites and ordered a few bits in aide of creating a more summer suited wardbroad. This summer, printed trousers, harem pants, trousers with generally looser materials are going to be my dominate bottoms. As for tops; smaller, crop styled tops with sleevless arms. 

Here are some of the clothes I have ordered. Some of the bits I have purchased are in the sale, therefore are subject to availability, they have a * before the title on the bottom of the image. Instead of merely displaying the items, I will have a small description of the item.



ASOS T-Shirt with Gathered Waist and Contrast Band This top is gorgeous, the black band detail along the neckline makes this top look more edgy and on trend. This would match really well with some cobalt trousers or some black smart chinos/trousers.

ASOS Jumper In Spotted Net I wanted a polka dot style jumper/top for a very long time, so when I spotted this on the ASOS website I had to add it to my shopping basket. The material is very light and lovely for the summer/spring season. 

ASOS Tank With Venice Scene I love the negative print on this basic shirt. It makes the top look slightly edgy.

In general I find that ASOS sizes are in comparison to other stores slightly more generous with sizes. My suggestion would be if you are a borderline on sizes e.g. I am size 6/8, I would go for the smaller size. Every top I have ordered seems to be slightly big for me when I order in a size 8. However, make sure you keep in mind what kind of clothing you are ordering e.g If you are top heavy, then perhaps it is better to stick with your standard size in clothing.



Urban Outfitters All Over Skull Tank (Black) This top is so simple and perfect for the summer/spring season. It is something you could throw over some trousers or jeans and it will make your style come across trendy/edgy but cute. 


Side Walk Fashion Womens Ladies High Heel Pull Chelsea Ankle Boots (Black) These boots are a dupe for the Topshop heeled chelsea boots. They are perfect! Look exactly like the image shown on the page. Very fashionable and good quality. The delivery is very quick and it is buy it now, so there's so there is no hassling with bidding. Last thing, the price is incredible, Topshop version of these are more than double this price if I remember right. 

I hope you like some of the bits i have recently bought and thank you as always for reading.
