Yes, I know that some fashion site news is long overdue.

And yes, I know that you have probably already heard of this site, or maybe have even started shopping there, but because I am a firm believer in “better late than never”, I’m about to tell you anyway.

Launched in July of 2006, Yesstyle.com is a pioneer company that merges the concepts of “Asian fashion” and “Fun and Affordable Online Shopping” so that girls like ourselves can visit their page and swoon at all the cute clothes.

Every season, YesStyle brings customers the latest trends along with thousands of fashion items from designers across Asia. YesStyle.com now represents the best platform for designers in Asia to connect with customers worldwide.

What do they mean by global distribution?

Well for starters, their “Customer Support” page easily boasts of more than 200 countries they allow shipping  to worldwide.

Yesstyle.com makes it hassle-free for you to search through an array of shoes, bags of all sizes, jewelry, accessories, beauty products and clothing for both guys and girls. At least until you find the perfect one. Or two. Or five.

Is that all, you ask?

Well, not quite….

February 20th, 2010 § Leave a Comment

Happy February!!!

Since my previous post, “Boots That Won’t Break Your Budget” I’ve become a fan of FRUGAL FASHIONISTA.com….

I’m one of those people who like scourging the stores to find deals and actually get that warm, satisfied feeling when I do.

Needless to say, FRUGAL FASHIONISTA.com focuses on just that. A recent visit to the site afforded me with a glimpse of Nicky Hilton’s style.

Boots that Won’t Break Your Budget…

November 13th, 2009 § Leave a Comment

As a spin-off  from my older post (Tuesday’s Featured Item: Donna Karan Boots), I thought I should make note of trendy boot styles that can be bought without forcing you over your credit limit.

Alot of us are well into the fall season, and for some of us, boots are definitely an “essential”, if not for comfort purposes, then certainly for stepping out in style.

Now while perusing frugal-fashionistas.com, i came across this post…

 

Best Budget-Friendly Boots

Stomp through winter in style without busting your budget with our top ten boots under $100. Shopping details below.

So there you have them.

Take Note.

Take Your Pick.

Spend Sensibly.
