Shopping the Web

Have you noticed that it's hard to find what you're looking for in stores these days? Or, is it just me?? I'm kinda picky & I have somewhat expensive taste (which creates problems at times...) so I don't always find that perfect (and yet inexpensive) piece unless I dig a little. Which is why I've recently been obsessed with online shopping! I know, I know, you're probably thinking not only is online shopping time consuming but it's probably more costly. It's actually not...always. The trick is to do your research & find sites that you'll go back to over & over. The ones that offer great deals (maybe even free shipping) and have one-of-a-kind finds that you wouldn't find in a dept. store.

Some of my personal favs are:

Bluefly: www.bluefly.com
ShopBop: www.shopbop.com
Basic Boutique: www.basicboutique.com (just stumbled onto this one & am LOVIN it!)
Piperlime: www.piperlime.com (shoe website that has a TON of varieties & brands to choose from)
Revolve: www.revolveclothing.com
Forever 21: www.forever21.com (they have stores everywhere but sometimes have stuff on their website that you can't find in the store!)
BagHaus: www.baghaus.com (FABULOUS purse site!)

A few of these run a little pricey but you can find great deals during end of season sales & they have boutique type clothes you can't find other places. And the best part is...you never have to leave your house! ;)
