This girl almost got me to buy this suit. Pretty smart marketing – by shopping online here, I am looking at the suit on HER instead of on my untanned bits in a cramped, dirty dressing room.

I was actually in the middle of trying to shop online (instead of looking for jobs—bad, I know) when I saw your guide! And I was like I think the gods are telling me I need to contribute… I haven’t bought anything on Bluefly in ages, but it’s always fun to look at discounted Prada.

I could click through beauty products all day long and end up mindlessly adding to my shopping cart based on the customer reviews. Good thing Sephora has THE greatest return policy ever.
Express.com
I know it’s not the absolute coolest, but when I need some low-priced basics or some wear-one-time trendy shirts, I head over to Express. For some super strange reason, they have never given the option of shopping online. Until a few months ago! Now I don’t even have to get up off my lazy butt to pick up my essentials. And sometimes the stuff online is cheaper than it is in the stores!
