My first ever ASOS order -- one out of three ain't bad?

Well, I think I have a hit and two misses.

I am liking these grey booties (#1-2 -- please ignore my hair today, I did since it was a not-leaving-the-house-day!)-- just a bit of embellishment, and a little sophisticated rocker, do you agree? I'm envisioning them with skinnies, straights and boot cuts.

The black booties with the metal details (#34-) are cute but not comfy. Weirdly, the right foot is tight, and that's my smaller foot. I checked the sizes, and they're correct, but something is definitely wonky.

The blue satchel (#3) -- darn it! This was going to be my fabulous replacement for my slouchy old cobalt blue bag, but I failed to realize the closures have to be buckled and unbuckled to use the bag. Not practical at all! Why didn't they use snap closures under the buckles? It's going back.

Too bad about #3 and #4!

I really like #1 - the silver studs on grey are more subtle than on black, but still Rock n' Roll. Also, I like your natural hair

The boots in 1 are great! And the bag is cute, buy yah you are right, having to undo the buckles every time is a drag.

Really, too bad about 3 and 4. I really like them a lot. Here, I'll enable you with this (which I posted here two weeks back). They're also very cool.

(I have also had one case of the smaller shoe being tighter. ??)

The bag is another one. It takes work being fab.

(ummmm....they wouldn't happen to be the same shoe, would they?)

Wow, Mochi, they're VERY similar!

Darn it, I would have tried the ones you posted, but they're gone in my size.

Not as good a price, but here they may still have your size.

And I'm sure if you were to google enrica and sixtyseven, you might do better....

I love them but really can't justify them. Probably.

I was lusting after these too:

The shoes in #1 are cool - rocker, but not OTT. Like!

The bag -- that is a bummer. It's so cute too. But buckling and unbuckling every time...seriously, that has got to be a competitive disadvantage in the marketplace, right?

Glory

Love the shoes in 1. Rocker but not OTT . sorry about the purse but I can see how that would be a pain

Huh. Really too bad about the bag. :T But the first boots are super fun - 1/3 success rate is pretty darn good! Even better because of the free returns. I hope you find your cobalt bag soon, though.

deb

Love the color of the bag, too bad about the closure. The boots in #1 are great.

Suz

LOVE the booties in #1. too bad about the others, but these are worth the order!

Okay, I can't ignore your hair, sorry! It's delicious, like flowing caramel.

The studded boots rock. Couldn't the other pair be a one-off defect? Have you tried speaking to customer service to see if they can send you another pair, just in case it is an issue with this specific pair? (I've had that happen before --- same shoe, same size, loose on left foot for one pair, loose on right foot with another! Sadly, they couldn't produce a third.) I do like the strip of steeliness at the toe.
