Website of the Week

Dress Victoria's Secret

This week's website of the week is ShopStyle.com . I use this website constantly. ShopStyle is like Google for shopping. The site allows you to type in the item you are looking for and then searches every online store from Target to Bergdorf's for the item. You can be as specific or as vague as you want so it is a great site to help you recreate looks you saw on the street or find a celeb look for less. If you can't find the exact look it will at least help you find something similar. Once you enter your search you can then narrow down the results by color, size, price, brand and style which is also helpful as most searches will retrieve pages upon pages of items. Or if you have a specific item in mind you can enter the brand and style and it will show you which sites have that item and how much it is at each site so that you can make sure you are getting the best deal out there.
Another great feature of ShopStyle is their sale alert feature. If you find something you like but it is more then you would like to pay for it you can sign in and tag it for a sale alert. When the item goes on sale ShopStyle sends you an email letting you know that you item has gone on sale. It's like getting a little present in your email :). For example today I searched for a halter maxi dress and found the dress featured above from Victoria's Secret in my results for $99 which was a bit much for a cotton maxi dress from VS so I signed up for the sale alert and now I just have to wait for that happy little email to pop up in my inbox. Happy Shopping!
