Gem and Jo's ASOS Wishlist

ASOS, what a wonderful, wonderful website. Well maybe it's not wonderful for our bank accounts, but everyone needs a treat every now and then. Perhaps we can take that a little too literal, we do love to treat our wardrobes to new additions.

If you've never treated yourself to the amazing site that is ASOS, then you need to get on that. It's just incredible. Not only do they have some amazing, high end brands but they also have absolutely incredible sales! And we're talking things reduced to under €10 if you're looking in the right places. It can be really overwhelming and hard to filter through the sheer amount of clothing and whatnot, but when you know where to go and what to click then you can find crazy bargains.

Here's a round up of the things we've had our eye on lately:

London Rebel Flat Sandals : €23.94 (On Sale)

These are just so summery and we are all for that right now, despite the weather not playing the game here in Ireland. But you can never be too prepared for summer: sandals, sun dresses, and a metric ton of sun cream. Plus, these babies are on sale, and who can pass up a bargain?

Diya Top with Crochet : €22.53 (On Sale)

Keeping on with that summer trend, we just couldn't pass this top by. How gorgeous are the inserts, plus they'll provide handy ventilation during those hot months we call summer. And guess what, this one is on sale too! Gotta love sale items!

ASOS Skater Dress with Shirt Overlay : €17.61 (On Sale) 

This is one cute little dress, and it comes in Black too! What you can't see is the back is somewhat open in a little triangle where the shirt opens and the skirt stops, it's all very cute and girly. Plus it's only 17 quid. Which means you could buy the pink and the black dress for just over €35. Bargain!

Paperchase Notebooks: €4.93 (On Sale)

Did we mention ASOS also do random things? Yup, and they're the best at it. You'll be scrolling through dress after dress and suddenly up pops a phone case in the shape of a happy shark. These paperchase notebooks are the cutest and yet again, they're in the sale! In fact, BRB we're off to buy these little cuties. 

New Look A-Line Denim Skirt : €25.34

These skirts are everywhere at the moment but it's tough to find one in the perfect denim colour. We've been searching for ages and this one from New Look (which is available on ASOS) seems good to us! Not a dark denim and it has just the right amount of blue, plus it doesn't look that short. That's been another struggle all together with these skirts. 

Sadly this one isn't on sale, but it would be a good investment piece that would see us all the way through to Autumn/Winter. 

Be sure to check out the "Outlet" section of ASOS's website, which is where most of this wishlist came from, it's where all the bargains are. And don't forget to switch the settings to "low to high" for the price. You can get things for super cheap when you have a good ole search on there!

Gem and Jo's Apps of the Moment

As young, technologically savvy girlos, we both have iPhones and with that comes a multitude of apps! Here is a list of our favourite apps of the moment!

Gem's list 

Wattpad: online community of people who write novels and poetry.
It's a great app and everytime you open it there is new stories! While there are the odd few that are very young authors the majority of them are excellent writers and often get picked up by publishers from this app!
It's a great way to get your work out there or if you just like to read like myself!

 

 Moves: tracks your steps, workouts and in general where you go.
It's excellent if you're conscious of how much exercise you do everyday and it's free!
The only downfall of this app is the fact you need to have location settings on all the time or it doesn't track.

 TVN: Live Weather, Live Chasing: this is a live stream from the cars of storm chasers across America! If you're interesting in storms, tornadoes and hurricanes this is a great app! it even provides an up to date map of where each chaser is located!
Some chasers often talk to the audience and explain why the weather systems occur, which is great for us budding chasers!

TwoDots: This app is kind of mindless but very addictive, while it is fun to play it for a while, running out of lives and having to wait for more becomes tiresome. Still I do keep returning to play it!

 Piano Tiles: a game of skill and incredibly addicting, I have my whole family playing it! It gets progressively harder and is very challenging! It's a brilliant game!

Jo's List

ASOS: This is the app for the clothing website ASOS. Through this app you can browse and buy all sorts of clothes and accessories. You can even save items to your favourites to check out later. I love this app as ASOS literally has everything! Plus who doesn't like a bit of window shopping.

 Candy Crush: Who doesn't know what this app is? If you haven't heard of it, have you been living in a cave for the past few years, because this app is literally everywhere. This game is seriously addictive and despite there being levels, it is a false sense of progress because you never really get to the end. It's torture and excitement all in one app, and who doesn't want that!?!

 Sleep Pillow: This App is pretty much a basic sound soother, with sounds such as running water and waves. I used this app a good bit in the last month as I was traveling quite a lot. I'm not the most comfortable flyer and  this helped cover up the sound of the plane, while making it still soothing enough to help me fall asleep. Also it's free which is great as a lot of sound soothers aren't

AcuWeather: This app gives you accurate weather forecasts for your area. This app is pretty essential living in Ireland as we can literally experience all four seasons within a day and it's hard to know what weather to dress for when leaving the house. It also provides you with a frizzy hair forecast and predicts which sports the weather is suitable for. 






Charades: This app is great craic when you have a large group of people! You can choose a category and it presents you with a topic which others must act out in order for you to guess it. Each round can contain many different topics or words. This is literally bucket loads of fun! And can be more difficult than it sounds and it is hilarious watching people struggle to act it out.





We also have a couple of apps that we both love such as Buzzfeed, Snapchat and iTube!
Thanks for reading and don't forget to tell us what apps you're loving at the moment!
Until Next Time!!
