For a while now I have been thinking I should do a series of similar items that differ in price, but all too often after spotting things I then forget where I saw them.
Whistles Meghan brushed fur dress £125 // ASOS Animal print shift dress £40
These two shift dresses aren’t exactly the same but there’s more than a trace of similarity with spring appropriate colours and an animal print type pattern in a flattering shift style. And if you’re watching your spending like me, I think it’s a very good substitute for the pricier Whistles splurge dress.
What do you think? Save or splurge?
Love,

I actually think the asos one looks much nicer. I prefer the shape and the colours in the print so would definitely be save for me.
Love the asos one, it’s a bit less straight up and down, and the neck line is a bit gentler. Much more flatter on anyone who’s not stick thin me thinks.
Love the ASOS dress x
Another vote for the Asos one. I don’t really like the Whistles print whereas the Asos one is more abstract which I like.
I love this post. I bought this Warehouse dress at the weekend as it was £40 in John Lewis and looks very much like a Whistles dress, especially with the exposed zip pn the back. http://www.warehouse.co.uk//fashion/warehouse/fcp-product/314938?gclid=COzYnILs0rwCFSTkwgodIGkALA
I love Whistles but the prices sometimes astound me. I saw a beautiful blouse this weekend but £125?!
I saw that dress and thought it was very ‘Whistles’ – Warehouse has done a lot in that style recently.
I like the pink in the ASOS one so SAVE….or wait for the next Grazia offer!
When is that offer coming? I’m sure it’s usually this time of year?!
I like the ASOS one too.
In theory/on paper I like the Whistles one, but I just can’t do that shape with my body, so I’m all about the ASOS one. In fact, I might even make a sneaky purchase…. 🙂
Actually, (just in case it matters to anyone) if you watch the video you will see the ASOS dress is very loose too, it just looks a bit more fitted in the photographs. It’s a difficult look (from experience!) for anyone with bigger boobs :/
oh boo! so it is…. wonder if i could whack a belt round it…
I prefer the asos one, such a bargain hunter lol
