The internet provides us ladies with a vast array of possibilities. It allows us to catch up on our favorite television shows, Google important questions we can’t get out of our head, and Facebook stalk out ex-boyfriends all from the comfort of our bed. To put it simply; it’s fabulous. But probably the most fabulous thing about the internet  is the unlimited shopping. It’s a mall that never closes.

So many ways to find the perfect pair of boots! Sites created just to help you find the best necklace! Blogs determined to make you trendy!

I’m a bit of an expert in this whole online shopping area, so in an effort to share my wisdom with you I’ve listed my top five shopping sites. You’re welcome.

1. Lulus.com. Because these are designers you won’t know. These are pieces you won’t have seen before.  Lulu’s features designers from all around the world and only snags a few of each piece. So if you want an item no one else will be wearing, this is where you should be shopping. And if you really want a super unique piece, check out their vintage collection. They’ve got it all from jumpsuits to bell bottoms — at prices that won’t break the bank.

The best part? The atmosphere of the entire website. It’s warm and welcoming and so girly you just can’t help but giggle. From the awesome names of their ensembles to the cute descriptions that accompany them, Lulu’s feels like more than just a shopping site; it’s a shopping experience. And in my opinion, it’s one no girl should go without.

If you’re an online shopping junkie like me, you probably have tons of links stored in your favorites, saved to your desktop, or emailed to yourself of things you want to buy. Not the most organized shopping method; it gets so cluttered you’re left without that great sequins blazer you wanted because you couldn’t remember where you stored the link. And you do so much online perusing (it’s OK, we get bored during class, too) you can’t even track it down in your browsing history. R.I.P., sequins blazer.

As far back as I can remember, every day was a good day to shop. And I managed to purchase some pretty fabulous things 7 days a week (24 hours a day, thanks to the Internet). A recent article on Yahoo.com, however, has taught me that I was wrong.

Well, sorta wrong.

It seems that while any day of the week is a good day to bring home something new and delicious, certain items are better purchased on specific days.

Like hitting up the clothing stores on Thursday evenings when their shipments come in. Not only do stores kick off their weekend sales, but you also get the best selection of goodies.

Or saving your dining out experience for a Tuesday when the food deliveries come in, promising you some fresh fare (Apparently eating out on Sunday is a baaaad idea; that is like leftover night for restaurants.).

This article is chock full of great shopping tips for women on a budget. Or, simply, anyone who wants to get the most out of their shopping experiences. Read More »
