ASOS Boohoo Strawberry Scoop Neck Swimsuit Review

ASOS - Boohoo Strawberry Scoop Neck Swimsuit

While in Aruba I rocked this amazingly fruit strawberry one piece swimsuit from ASOS. It was the perfect vacation swimsuit that caught everyone's attention on the beaches of Aruba. Surprisingly enough I got a lot of compliments on it and some liked it so much they had to know exactly where it was from to order! This swimsuit was also a really good price under $40 so for the trip both my bestie and I both got matching ones. ( Pics HERE + HERE )

SIZING + FIT
I ordered a size 6 from ASOS. Since they are typically based on european sizes I go between a 4 and a 6. There were actually no more size 4 left so I figured a 6 would work just fine. It was a bit loose on the top but could also be a result of my smaller sized chest. Either way I am happy I went with a 6 because it was extremely comfortable to be wearing all day at the beach. I even ended up wearing it into the night at Moomba's Beach Bar with a pair of dark washed Levi's jean shorts.

QUALITY
I was slightly skeptical with the quality of this swimsuit before I ordered it. Some of my concerns were if it would be sheer, if the material would be poor, and if it would fit properly. Because this swimsuit was for an occasion and not a regular everyday wear swimsuit I felt good about ordering it and it was such a good deal. I am glad that I did because it was not sheer – when wet it certainly stuck to your body like any swimsuit would but since it was a light color it was a bit more noticeable but nothing that wasn't normal wear. If I had a choice of this same swimsuit in black or navy or even red (just a darker base color) I would have gone with that. The material was great, no complaints there. One thing I was surprised about is I thought the strawberries were going to be embroidered on the swimsuit where they were actually just a design dyed on the swimsuits material. The fit was good and besides the top being a bit big for my smaller chest I was really happy with this swimsuit for the price!!

ORDERING
I love ordering from ASOS. They are extremely reliable and have fast shipping. I have yet to be disappointed. It is also really easy to hit their free shipping threshold which is usually only $50. Because we ordered 2 of these swimsuits we easily hit the free shipping mark so not only was it free but it was nice and quick to arrive which was great because we waited kind of last minute to order!

DISCOUNTS
ASOS typically only has really great deals on sale and less of coupon codes to use for an over all order discount. Luckily I am on their email list which helps when looking for an additional discount from a website. It turned out the day I went to order these swimsuits I got a birthday email from ASOS with 10% off my entire order! These strawberry swimsuits were already an amazing deal at only $35 per swimsuit and the extra 10% off was a nice little surprise!
