So a far-too-belated apology is in order for the lack of posts- graduation, work, and birthday shenanigans have taken up most of my time but I am happy to announce that I will be back and *drumroll* am moving to WordPress!

I've had some issues with the format of Blogger as well as some ad control problems. I'll be transferring over in the next few weeks and will hopefully be up and running soon! I will post the link as soon it's up and running. See you there!

Not so surprising if you saw my last post, I have a surprise post this week! Three cheers for procrastinating school work!

I found this boutique through a friend's pin and immediately fell in love. Page 6 offers a mid-sized selection of cute styles in everything from dresses to accessories.



The first thing I noticed is how much Macbeth brand stuff they carry. For those of you who haven't heard of Macbeth, they are known for their low price point, bright colors and trendy prints. These are two of of my favorites!






Overall, the prices are on the lower side of average. One thing I did note is that they seemed to be sold out of a lot of their super cute stuff.


Head on over to Page 6 and snag some style!


PS. I've been playing with the templates for the blog so for those of you who have been following along, how do you like this template?

Just a quick post today featuring my current fav for clothing: Tobi.

Happy Monday!

It's the start of another work week but at least our bank accounts will be flush to shop this next site.

Alloy actually doubles as a website for teens and young adults (a la Seventeen.com) and a place to shop. 

I think one of the best things about this site is that it has specialty sections for the tall and plus-sized. This isn't something you see frequently in boutiques, especially those that cater to young adults. Alloy also offers discounts for buying 3 or more items which is great for stocking up on basic tees and tanks or even these bikinis!



Right now, they're having a bitchin' special: $20 off an order of $99, so head on over to Alloy.com and snag some style!

Now that spring is in the air, what's your spring fashion must-have?

Bank accounts beware of this next boutique.

I am currently in a long-term love affair with this shop. While Dainty Hooligan is starting to make waves on fashion sharing sites such as Pinterest and Wanelo, it still has all the uniqueness and charm of a small town boutique.


I don't think there's a style of clothing this site doesn't carry. Color-coordinated for the viewing pleasure of the OCD-person in all of us, Dainty Hooligan covers the gamut from sexy to business chic to a variety of perfect slouchy tees for binge watching Netflix's House of Cards.

Another awesome feature is that they use an actual model to show off their clothes (Free People actually just started doing this well a la FPxMe). By "real" I mean minimal photoshopping and a model with the BMI of a woman rather than a BMI equivalent to the average chihuahua (I'm looking at you American Apparel). Obviously, one of the biggest risk factors in online shopping is the fact that you can't try it on. By showing you how the clothing looks on a girl who actually resembles the shopper, the shopper can get a better idea of how it will fit them. (though I can't be the only one who sees a gauzy shirt look great on a 5'10'' model and believe it will look just as bitchin' on my 5'3'' frame, can I?)



The average price range is similar to that of the sale prices of more popular stores such as NastyGal and Tobi- just another reason to love this boutique.


Note: While I didn't feature any of their shoes or accessories, Dainty Hooligan offers a huge variety of styles and colors to compliment every piece of their clothing.

It's about time this blog went "down under".

It's no secret Australians have some kind of chemical in their water making the Aussie population freakishly beautiful, but they are also a fashionable folk. I have a few Australian-based sites in the queue to review but I thought I'd start off with Mishkah Fashion.

First of all, all of the international boutiques I review offer international shipping, sometimes for free.

Just as Asian and European trends which surpass US trends, Australian fashion is also far ahead of ours. You are almost guaranteed a beautiful and trendy outfit no matter what you order from Mishkah. In fact, I actually am going to let the clothing speak for itself in this post.


One of my favorite things about this store is that it has a rewards program. As they say "the more you shop, the more you get"; for each piece you buy, you accumulate points. You can then use these points to buy more pieces (each piece has a value posted on the details page).

If that's not enough to check them out, here are some more Mishkah pieces.


A final thing to note is that prices are in AU. The Australian dollar is stronger than the US dollar currently so there will be a difference in price (it will be more expensive in US dollars). Because of this, it does qualify as an expensive boutique.

Note: I don't get paid in money, clothing or even gum for these posts. Any opinion on this blog is mine alone and my only sources of influence are my readers and my 8-lb Maltipoo who likes to sleep on my keyboard.

Any truly addicted online shopper has probably seen an ad for Jolly Chic peeking out from behind her latest Facebook chat about last night's hijinks. Having passed it up many times as shopping is not my top priority while stalking the ex's newest photos, I was wary of actually clicking it. However it seems that Zuckerberg stopped bedding biddies long enough to refine his sidebar ads and I stumbled upon a cute boutique that offers international shipping.



Feel free to drop a beat as we break it down into the pros and cons of international sellers:


Pros: unique clothing, bitchin' low prices, free shipping for larger purchases
Cons: time to ship, shipping is usually based by weight (more stuff (read: more shoes) = higher cost))

With that said, this boutique is one of the best Asian-based sellers I've seen and it has some great clothing at mid-range prices.



Because they mimick European styles, Eastern-based trends tend to be ahead of American styles. However, they tend to make these styles with cheaper fabric so the lower price range comes with a lower quality.


Many of the styles that are popular on the site right now are reminiscent of Anthropologie or J. Crew.

Keep in mind that these are in Asian sizes aka: made for the impossibly small. A general rule of thumb for ordering any clothing from Asian sellers is to go one size up when ordering.

Jolly Chic is currently having a $5 off sale at checkout for Easter so hop on over to hunt for some egg-cellent deals. <end puns>

Let's imagine for a second that the Nasty Gal and Forever 21 did the ol' bump n grind and made a lovechild that was a combination of their best qualities: eclectic, fun, and just enough sexy to turn a certain ex's head.

Pixie Market is totally that lovechild.

I am loving the bohemian club vibe reminiscent of more popular sites like NastyGal and Tobi.

With plenty of unique pieces and styles exclusive to their site, you can be sure that a certain frenemy from high school won't be wearing the same outfit as you at the bar again this Lady's Night (or god forbid, a cheaper Forever 21 lookalike).

The price point is average. Expect to pay for quality but some style staples earn lower prices and they currently have a "$10, $20, $30" sale on so you can be sure to snag your favorite style for less!



While Pixie Market is still flying under most fashion radars, it is just beginning to hit fashion sharing sites such as Pinterest and Wanelo.
