I did a wrong click in ASOS and ended up in a whole new section that I’ve never seen before, called Awesome Soiree (free shipping for all). Stocked were items in the new and upcoming collection, a little too many hesitant looks at the canapé plates (Do I talk to strangers [with blogs] with mouth full of mozzarella & tomato or do I suppress this hunger?), dressing rooms with no boundaries (physical and metaphorical), and of course, for those willing to see the ‘products’ in action, the famous ASOS catwalk.
We were all a little shy in the beginning, whispering to our champagne glasses and petting the only living thing that won’t talk back, Butters the dog. The party really only started when the hair & makeup crew prompted some of the bloggers to get a makeover (not hinting on anything, I presume), and then we all eventually lunged for pieces on the racks and changed in the curtainless dressing rooms like varsity boys’ basketball locker room. It was so fun, to say the least, to mingle with UK’s top loved bloggers wearing Britain’s most-loved online retailer new season pieces. The evening folded with delicious cookies that were baked by one Kayla (who has a baking blog!) of ASOS’ team, and a goodybag, as if the evening wasn’t VIP treatment enough.
Hats off to ASOS for putting on such a great evening. Bloggers catwalk, what an idea!
