The Thrill of the Shop

Since the internet, our world has gotten a lot smaller. Small enough that we never have to leave our homes to go shopping. This is not a new concept - online shopping - but recently, it's gone through a change. You might have heard. And you might not have heard. There are an overwhelming amount of online sample sale boutiques - that require a membership. Oh, and the sales only last for a few days. Designer labels, such as FENDI and Hobo International, are featured for a certain amount of hours and once the inventory is gone, it's gone for good. Perhaps the goal of these sites is to bring the thrill of sale shopping to you in your own home. I'm a member at a couple of these - RueLaLa and Ideeli - and even had the chance of what I like to call "winning" the perfect black cross body. Maybe it's not really winning, but it sure feels like it! I got this great Hobo International cross body for only $65! Now, to be a member you have to be invited, so let me know if you want in on these great buys!
