So I decided to venture out of the ASOS box that I was living in and try another online shop. I've been seeing a lot of Missguided advertisements that seem to be pushing me to try the site out and like most first time buyers I didn't want to buy a large amount as I absolutely hate returning items!! After a week of going back and forth to the same pages of clothes I was tempted to but, I finally brought two items to try out.
I decided to go for the basic jersey options called Sweet Deals. These are a selection of crop tops, tunics, bodies, skirts, leggings and playsuits that are very cheap and affordable to complete and layer outfits with. theres hundreds of styles and colours to choose from so I thought it was a good idea to start with these items.
This green body a comfortable jersey material with off the shoulder detail which is elasticated to ensure it doesn't fall down (which would be very embarrassing on a night out..) This comes in a range of different colours and also a shorter sleeve style.
Dominica Value Bardot Bodysuit : £6.49 - Missguided
Leather Studded Sport Shorts : £16.95 - Forever 21.
My second purchase was this simple black off the shoulder dress ( I was having a bit of an off the shoulder moment..) Again this dress is a jersey cotton material, its not too thin which is what I was slightly worried about and also being 5ft10, the dress is quite a good length and hangs slightly lower than the front at the back. As a keen believer in versatility, this dress if perfect for day and night and can be accessorised any way you want!
Mirabela Value Bardot Skater Dress - Missguided : £6.99
Quality: Most of the sweet deal basic items are made from jersey material so its comfortable and breathable and also very easy to wash. The fabric was very soft and stretchy making it easy to move around in.
Price: The prices of the items range from £2.99 - £15 which is a pretty sweet deal!
Delivery: There is a large selection of delivery options for the site, UK saver is 1.95, standard is 2.95 and next day is 3.95 which I personally think is quite cheap! If you are outside of the UK, Missguided will also deliver to Europe for £3.95 and internationally for £15.95
Promotions: If you are a university or college student , then you should make myunidays.com your best friend when it comes to shopping!, I received 10% off my orders which is better than nothing.
Overall im really happy with my first buy and also the delivery was super fast! I've heard a lot of mixed reviews about Missguided but I felt the need to try it out for myself. So looks like I have a new favourite online shop, great news for my wardrobe ... not so good news for my bank...
