Bristol ASOS shopper sparks huge debate after sharing haul

A Bristol woman has sparked a huge debate after sharing her latest ASOS haul. Daisy Woods showed her followers a selection of outfits she bought from the online fashion chain.

The 34-year-old had picked up a range of beautiful spring clothing including cargo trousers and jeans. But people were more focussed on the way she pronounced ASOS than the actual clothes.

One person wrote: "Why does my mum say Asos like that too", another said: "A haul from where? Ah-sos? You mean ay-sos."

A third said: "It’s pronounced “ay sos”.

The way to say the much-love brand has caused so much debate online that the retailer has had to step into the debate. A spokesperson previously said: "So you know us and love us at ASOS. But people often ask where our name comes from (usually straight after they ask us how to pronounce it – it's ACE-OSS, by the way)."

Daisy has recently been handed an award for her 'relatable wellbeing content' which she shares on TikTok. Dubbed the “Baftas” for mothers, the GLOMAMA Awards are the world's first people’s choice event celebrating the achievements of mothers on social media.

During her acceptance speech, Daisy said: “What pushes me to keep sharing is the feedback from other mums; that my content makes them feel less alone. Some hadn’t realised there was a term for the intrusive thoughts they’d been struggling with – I’ve even had direct messages on Instagram from mums who have felt they were going mad and my posts had encouraged them to finally speak up and reach out for help.”

Daisy joined TikTok in January 2021, during a very lonely lockdown as a way to connect with other like-minded mums, however she’s been sharing her journey through motherhood on Instagram for over five years.

“Women want to see and hear real-life experiences, what it's like on a daily basis when you still have to take care of your children, practical tools and techniques to overcome the darkness of depression and how to cope basically," she said.

It soon turned into much more than simply sharing her day-to-day life, simple tricks for making motherhood that little bit easier and positive parenting tips and is now her full-time career.
