Covet.com- An excellent online shopping tool


www.covet.com

Ahh, Facebook. It affords me the never ending satisfaction of letting 400 people know what I'm doing every second of the day. It allows me to silently find out what people I knew in high school are doing these days. Additionally, I can Facebook chat with any one of my friends, even if I haven't seen or heard from them in years. If there is one internet tool I can say I truly love, it is Facebook. This evening, Facebook gifted me the pleasure of reconnecting with my friend Stacy from college. She happened to click on my blog and realized that she had some helpful websites to share with me which in turn I could then share with my faithful readers. After checking out, well, everything she sent me, I am eternally grateful to her for my next six or seven blog features. So, thanks Stacy!

I would like to introduce all of you to Covet. This isn't necessarily a "bargain" website, but it is an excellent tool to help you find the styles you like at a price you love. Covet features stylish desitner women's clothing and accessories. It doesn't sell anything directly, but combs retailers' websites for you, and then sends you e-mails indicating it has found price & style matches for you.

When you sign up, you first use Covet's "Stylizer", which is a fun way for Covet to determine articles of clothing, accessories, and shoes that fit your style (you can always add and subtract styles & designers later). Next, you tell covet your sizes and suitable price ranges. Then, you wait for the daily or twice weekly e-mails for which you signed up. Its that easy!

Another awesome feature- Covet pays you for referrals! For every 10 friends you invite that sign up for Covet, you get a $10 Amex gift card-- which you can then spend on the great stuff Covet discovers and then sends to your inbox!

Have you met Jane?

Recently I've been searching for new places to shop online.  Granted, I love Amazon.com, Ebay, and the online retaliers about which I typically post (Ann Taylor, GAP brands, Victoria's Secret), but occasionally I want a funky fashion piece for which I'm not willing to pay a lot.  Why not?  Because usually the piece is "out-there" or something I won't wear every day.  By all means, spend what you feel you need to on pieces that you can wear every day or several times- like a little black dress, or camisoles- but when I want to buy zebra or cheetah print shoes, I don't intend on spending more than $20.  That's where Jane comes in.

GoJane (www.gojane.com) is a hip place to shop for those of us who like the funky and off beat as well as the basics, and the prices are spectacular.  I'm currently shopping for, yes, cheetah print shoes, and GoJane has them for a mere $11 (+$5 shipping).  There's a "deal of the week section" (pictured below), and my personal favorite, "Steals and Deals".

GoJane is definitely a site worth looking into.  I haven't ordered clothing, therefore I'm not sure of the quality; however, as I said before, for that funky once-in-awhile fashion piece, I'd say GoJane is a sure bet.
