New Favorite Flash Sale Sites

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

Everybody loves a good deal, especially when some of your favorite brands are offered at some deep discounts. Here is a mix of my favorite flash sale sites: some old, and some new and note worthy!
 
Hautelook– An oldie but never disappoints! Hautelook saves your items for 15 minutes while you shop around but make sure to act fast because they sell out quickly once it leaves your queue. Hautelook has a wide assortment of sales ranging from designer lines to appliances, including a deal of the day on one specific item. Today’s Deal of the Day: Swiss Legend Women’s South Beach Watch from $995 to $92. Can’t really beat that…
 
 
Gilt Group– Gilt is probably the most popular membership-only site that has grown incredibly over the past few years. Gilt now has home, food, and travel pages on their site making Gilt attractive to almost anyone. My favorite recent addition to Gilt is their travel site, Jetsetter, where you can find great discounts on some amazing travel properties and also read honest trustful recommendations and reviews!

 

Belle & Clive– one of my newest favorite flash sale sites created by online clothing retailer Bluefly is Belle & Clive, which just launched last December. All of the sales on Belle & Clive are upscale including Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Miu Miu, and Bottega Veneta just to name a few. With free shipping and a great return policy (no credit, just a normal refund, Belle & Clive is one of the best new comers to the fashion flash sale industry.
 
 
JewelMint, StyleMint, ShoeMint– These aren’t exactly flash sale sites but the concept of these websites are different then most online retail websites. Especially with ShoeMint collaborations with Rachel Bilson and JewelMint’s exclusive jewelry collection designed by Kate Bosworth and Cher Coulter, you’re guaranteed a unique item! All you do is take a survey about your likes and dislikes and the website automatically matches their items with your personal taste. It’s worth looking at especially because you won’t find these items in stores anywhere!
 
MyHABIT – MyHABIT is one of the newer flash sale sites launched by Amazon.com in May, which has sales in all clothing categories (women, men, children) as well as home and a designer section. The designer section has archive products, but more importantly there’s always a consistent list of them on sale! Amazon owns both Zappos and Shopbop so MyHabit could potentially have great tie ins with these popular online websites. Definitely a site to keep an eye for in this year and you can login with your Amazon account!
