The newest phenomenon to hit the web since social networking (OK, of course it's not that big) is the online personal shopping sites. Now anyone can have their very own virtual personal shopper without the price tag. The way it works is the website asks a series of questions to build you a fashion profile. This gives the site an idea of your own personal style and what kind of look you're going for. The site then builds a showcase of products it believes may appeal to you. Even better, many of these sites offer all their products for one price and even sometimes free shipping. Here are just a few of these wonderful sites:
This site was developed by actress Kate Bosworth and celebrity stylist and designer Cher Coulter. They design and sell fabulous pieces of jewelry for $29.99 each. After becoming a member of the site (which is free) you are provided with a personalized showcase of jewelry pieces each month. On top of that, the site frequently will email you special discounts and coupon offers. Watch this video to give yourself a better idea of how Jewelmint works.
Do you love shopping for accessories, but get tired of the tediousness of sifting through page after page of styles that just aren't for you? If that is the case, this site is perfect for you. It works the same way as the previous site. You simply provide a few basic pieces of information and then take a short survey to determine your personal style tastes. You are then provided with your very own showroom of pieces chosen just for you. And every piece is extremely affordable at $39.95, with the added bonus of free shipping.
An added perk to this site is that you can earn credits that you can redeem for products. For every piece you buy from the site you earn 100 points. In addition you can invite your friends to join the site through Facebook and for every friend that joins and makes a purchase you receive 200 points. Once you reach 1,000 points you get a credit good for a product from the site.
You also can shop with the assistance of stylists and celebrities. Kim Kardashian is just one stylist who lends her suggestions on the best accessories of the season.
Of course Google had to get in on the action of this exploding trends and is in the Beta stages of Boutiques.com, where you can shop your favorite designers and styles. The filters on this site are better than any other, offering the shopper to narrow their search to a specific style, silhouette, pattern and designer. Read more about this site at this address:
