Online shopping: How to beat the system

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Brown chapter.

 

Even though it still feels like Jack Frost has overstayed his welcome, it’s almost springtime! Bright colors! Beautiful patterns! Shorts and Dresses! Picnics! Springtime is bound to be a party and we are going to strut into this celebration with some help from some of the best shopping websites! I love to look for cute clothes online and definitely have a top three that I adore surfing through when I don’t feel like studying or need an activity to accompany my lovely lunchtime meal.

One of my closest friends just introduced me to Tobi.com. Usually when new arrivals are showcased on a website, they aren’t at the cheapest prices. But, not here! New arrivals are thirty percent off and are always quite stylish. Also, new arrivals are spotlighted on the website daily so you can find awesome deals every day. Here’s the cherry on top! If you get five friends to join Tobi, you get fifty percent off your next order and they get fifty percent off their first order! To shop on Tobi.com, you have to create a membership. But, it’s completely free and you are registered right away.

If you are looking for new accessories for spring, look no further than fredflare.com. Not only does this website have cute clothes, but also comes complete with the most original accessories around. Currently, fredflare.com is having a ninety percent off sale on some of their most original items. Crayola nail polishes are only ten dollars a box while a beautiful light blue contrast stripe clutch is only eighteen dollars. Also, if you live in New York City or are around NYC for spring break, Fred Flare has a store in Greenpoint, Brooklyn that is definitely worth checking out.

If you need a fancier dress to celebrate the coming of all wonderful springtime things, lulus.com is the perfect site for you! The regular priced dresses can be a bit expensive but gold can be found within the sale section. The other great thing about lulus.com is their quirky patterns and cuts. So, if you also want to try something a little different this season, bookmark this page. The flirty Diamond Cleo Cut Out Coral Dress is on sale for forty dollars. I truly appreciate the balance between flirty and classy that this dress embodies. It’s also a Lulu’s original, so you aren’t going to find this dress anywhere else. Also, the It’s a Jungle Out There Floral Print Dress is strikingly beautiful. These bold prints just scream sunshine and lemonade. It’s also easy on your wallet for only thirty dollars.
