Polka Dotted Skirt [Oasap.com Review]

Hi guys!

I feel like I don't talk about fashion enough on this blog so to give my blog a bit more variety, I thought I'd share with you an online fashion website that I found called OASAP .

OASAP is a fashion website based in Asia, but unlike those wholesale fashion websites based in Asia that offer dirt-cheap clothes of poor quality , OASAP offers trendy, stylish clothes at reasonable (not dirt-cheap) prices. 

They also offer FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE! You also get a 20% coupon on your first order. Me likey. 

The service was pretty good. I received a confirmation email and it was shipped quickly after it was ordered. It arrived within 2 weeks, which is average for international shipping. 

I chose to receive this cute, polka-dotted skirt. Polka dots are definitely a pattern that never goes out of style.

Here's a photo taken from the site. The item is called Dots Printing Elastic Waist Bubble Skirt .

I received the item in a neutral, mint green colour which isn't available anymore but the navy blue color is.
I quite like the color as it'll be a great Spring piece.


One thing that really bothered me was that the website advertises it as a skirt, but when I received it, I was shocked to see that it was actually shorts?!
Luckily when worn, you can't really tell and it still looks like a skirt but the gap between the legs and the fold really irks me. 

I think the item description is really misleading as it's called a "skirt" and they did not mention at all that it was actually a skort.


Also, the item pictured on the website did not have a ruffle detail at the bottom of the skirt but the one I received did, so... I'm starting to think I received another skirt instead that looked identical...?

The skirt also came with a brown, woven belt which is actually decent and I will get some use out of it.
Yay, free belt!


The skirt is made out of chiffon and the quality is nice.

I also love how the back of the skirt has an elastic waist band so I can see it fitting a lot of people, as the skirt is one size fits all.


The length of the skirt hits me at mid-thigh, but I am quite short so I can see this being a bit too short for a lot of people. 
Most of these Asian fashion websites are based on more petite people, so just make sure to check the measurements.


I like to pair up this skirt (err I mean skort) with a white tee and an oversized cardigan.

In the photos, I also wore some peep-toe, bow wedges. I think it makes a cute Spring outfit.


Overall, this is a cute, good quality skirt and I like how it came with a belt.
A major disappointment though was the fact that it turned out to be shorts. C'mon, at least state that on the website! =/

But I would still recommend this website and will probably place an order in the future, as they have a lot of really cute things!

Feel free to check out OASAP for cute, trendy pieces!

Sheri

  9. I'd honestly be super disappointed if I ordered a skirt and it turned out to be shorts! It's still really cute, but I don't think I'd order from this site now just knowing that I might not get exactly what I ordered... Thanks for the honest review!

  10. Luckily the shorts turned out to be cute anyways - and you also scored yourself a free belt, yay! I never buy any clothing items from OASAP as I find their 'one size fits all' sizing to be complete crap. I mainly stick to their handbags and accessories!

    1. Yeah it's probably safer to stick to handbags and accessories!
      I haven't really checked them out on oasap, how's the quality? :)

  11. Lol that is so strange that it turned out to be shorts! But skorts are all the rage at the moment anyway ;) The colour and the polka dots are adorable and I'm always for free shipping!

  12. Haha oh dear, I would be annoyed if I got skorts instead of a skirt! That was quite misleading :( At least it looks cute and I love the polka dots, and free shipping is the best!

  14. Haha how weird, they could have written skort! It's probably really a skirt, and the colour you chose is a completely different style that just looks similar so they through it all in the one description haha! Either way you look gorgeous!
