When online shopping first became a thing, I was pretty obsessed with ASOS. Mainly because it was so cheap and they had free shipping to Australia. This was back when I worked with Browny and we’d have our packages sent to the office. We often ordered things together and then we’d close our office door and try on everything immediately. It was so much fun.
I don’t online shop that much anymore because the novelty has kind of worn off. I’m a much more organic shopper now. I tend to not go looking for a particular thing, I just try on things I like and if they look good I buy them. Occasionally I need to shop online if I’m going overseas and need an out of season item, but most clothing items I buy are bought in person.
Online shopping is great though – I love using my measurements to buy an item because I know it will fit rather than just aimlessly trying things on. If you’re a curvy online shopping lover who’s a bit fond of ASOS, this is the post for you.

I bought a swimsuit from these guys a while a ago and it’s great. Their one shoulder swimmers are so, so good.
