Best site ever for online shopping deals!

Many of you may have heard of this site and/or used it. If not, you MUST check it out! It’s called shopittome.com. I signed up not knowing details or what I’d be getting myself into if I did give away my coveted email address ( I usually never sign up places I have to give it b/c of spam. YUCK)… But I was blown away and pleasantly surprised at this fantastic site!

You sign up by making yourself a profile giving all your fave fashion and shopping brands (almost every great brand from the normal faves to designer names). You also input what kind of items you are most interested in hearing the latest deals/sales on (ex: handbags, shirts, skirts, pants, jeans or all of the above and more). You even put in your sizes so they can make sure they HAVE your size before sending you an email of what is available! Don’t you hate it when you love something and your size is nowhere to be found? This is your solution b/c they don’t inform you of anything in the stores that doesn’t fit your size requirements!

So… They inform you of stores that are having sales on brands and items you put in your profile. They are A-list stores too: the likes of Nordstrom and Bloomingdales to name a few. Also a selection of online dealers as well! Reputable places, trust me. This site has been featured in some pretty reputable places including NY Magazine. I am by no means a online shopper. But this site is amazing. The very best part? You don’t have to keep visiting the site to check on deals! They email you as often as you want to be. From daily to weekly or
whatever! They suggest to you twice a week on certain days of the week b/c that’s when the best sales come in.

I attached some pics so you can see some cute stuff on the site. A Moschino bag and also a couple dresses from BCBG and Nicole Miller. Extremely reasonable prices for what you’re getting ladies and gentlemen. I will use this site and I will love it! Online shopping, here I come! Thanks shopittome.com!
