It's pretty rare you will find me wanting to post anything other than beauty talk or the odd lifestyle post here on Makeup Savvy. But on recently picking up the sweetest blush suede bag that was outside of what I normally would go for (generally black and simplistic) something changed. 

It's possible it has something to do with how photogenic this petite blush pink suede cross body bag is or the fact it was a bit of a bargain buy that made me want to share it with you!



Much like with makeup I enjoy being savvy when it comes to clothing! For me, there's nothing like grabbing a bargain or finding good value pieces.

My favourite online shop for this is without a doubt ASOS. I've had a premier delivery account for 3 or 4 years running now because free* next day delivery is amazing and I often browse for bargains when I have a free minute or can't sleep - it's a habit, but a good one!

Just thought I'd give you a quick preview of the ASOS Africa line that should be live on Asos right now.


I have to say from looking at the preview shots, I'm impressed. It's bright, bold and ideal for summer, especially them wedges! I'm also looking forward to the man-made African jewelery and the whole new section focused on organic and Eco-friendly beauty products.

So my sources tell me Asos are to unveil there new ethical site area this Friday(26th Feb) which is a week befind schedule, but oh well, a girl can't have everything.

The new section of the site seems quite large by the sounds of it, which is aiming to bring the customer closer to the people that are behind the products.

The area of The Green Room that I am most excited about is Asos's Africa Brand that will bring more work to the people of Africa and Tanzania. Each garment that you purchase will arrive in it's own envelope - So that the trainee tailors have something to work on while they improve there skills.



The new site will also contain of social & environmentally aware brands such as Swedish Hasbeens and the hotly awaited collaboration of Emma Watson for the People Tree range.

There will also be a Beauty section which is already partly up on the main site that includes Young & Pure, Neal's Yard, Green & Spring and many more. All of the products on the new site will be environmentally friendly which I'm sure will make a lot of people happy.

Overall this is such a positive and exciting thing for Asos and it's customers, which I'm sure will go from strength to strength over the course of 2010.
