Discount ASOS Haul

Before I buy something, especially online, I usually check if there's a discount code, Ebay sale or cashback link I can use instead of paying full price. I'm sure if I was American and more spare time I'd end up being one of those extreme couponer people!

My ASOS basket has been piling up as I've been waiting for a decent discount to hit which it finally did last week in the form of a 20% NUS discount (probably going to cry when I can't have a student card anymore) so with a combination of this, 3% Quidco cashback*, my £80 voucher that I won on Messy Carla's blog and a cashback credit card I've saved over £200 on my order. I'm justifying by spend my telling myself that two of the most expensive items I bought were effectively free!

Here's what I bought:

(Above, L-R) ASOS Mini Vest Bodycon Dress, Ted Baker Under the Sea Print Cover Up, Playful Promises Black Aztec Geometric Longline Bikini, ASOS Vest with Drape Armhole, ASOS Longline V Neck Cami

(Above, L-R) Coast Saskia Jersey Dress, ASOS Textured Blazer Coat, ASOS Peg Trousers in Grey Marl, ASOS Pencil Dress with Wrap Front

 (Above, L-R) Adidas Hoodie with Mesh Inserts, Carmex Moisture Plus SPF15 Hydrating Lip Balm, River Island Leather Look Jacket with Fringing, Cambridge Satchel Company 11" Lilac Leather Satchel

My favourite items are the lilac satchel, the Playful Promises bikini and the wrap dress.  I'm not 100% sure about the leather look jacket yet (I feel a bit like a line dancer in it but I do like the way it looks) and the red blazer is definitely going back as it's massive and the fabric is seriously weird. I adore my Cambridge Satchel but I've been treating it like a Very Precious Thing (which it is!) for fear of ruining it...it's currently on the back of my door being protected by dressing gowns:
