You can order from sites that only ship to US addresses and then she forwards them onto you. And she combines puchases. I have bought from nordstrom, express, atl, endless and zappos and got them all shipped to her. She'll also combine parcels from multiple sellers. Rates are definitely more reasonable than paying $60 for just one dress from nordstrom! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/australian-shopping-resources#post-107354 Sat, 21 Nov 2009 09:47:57 +0000 lex 107354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yublocka, didn't know shopbop shipping was free! I'm going there right now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/australian-shopping-resources#post-107353 Sat, 21 Nov 2009 09:46:42 +0000 lex 107353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shipping is my main problem, Stringy. Sometimes I end up using ebay shops to ship things for me, if they have them in stock. I'm dying for a pair of Kenneth Cole sandals I saw on this site (the cedar city ones, in brick) but of course, no one ships here.</p> <p>I use countryroad.com.au just to look - you can't buy online from them, like so many other stores here, and Netaporter.com just to look and salivate. I can rarely affford, sigh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/australian-shopping-resources#post-107328 Sat, 21 Nov 2009 04:36:58 +0000 stringy 107328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've got no problem ordering stuff from overseas, if they ship to Australia. Well, other than my usual problem with ordering online, which is figuring out the fit and dealing with returns. </p> <p>The Nordstrom shipping does sound pretty pricey! Free is always better, will definitely take a look at shopbop.com then :)</p> <p>Thanks Anne for those - I hadn't looked at Target or Just Jeans online for so long because they used to have such silly websites, they're much improved now. I'd never seen ezibuy.com.au before at all, looks very useful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/australian-shopping-resources#post-107198 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:44:38 +0000 yublocka 107198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blah, I just tried adding a random dress from Nordstrom.com to my shopping cart and checking out.....shipping is $66. You'd have to buy a lot of stuff to justify that price - crazy!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/australian-shopping-resources#post-107197 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:39:22 +0000 yublocka 107197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As of today Nordstrom ships internationally (incuding Australia). Woohoo!! (Although I don't know what the shipping costs are)</p> <p>Shopbop.com has free shipping to us here as well.</p> <p>Or did you want only stores actually located in Australia? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/australian-shopping-resources#post-107188 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 07:29:25 +0000 anne 107188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great start Stringy, with some there that are new to me.</p> <p>An online shop is Ezi buy <a href="http://www.ezibuy.com.au/" rel="nofollow">http://www.ezibuy.com.au/</a></p> <p>Target's has a limited selection of their range here <a href="http://www.target.com.au/html/microsites/microsites.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com.au/html/.....osites.htm</a>.</p> <p>I like Valley girl to try out new trends cheaplyhttp://www.valleygirl.com.au/category.aspx<br /> Just jeans <a href="http://www.justjeans.com.au/JU_IWCatLoadSections.process?CalledFrom=Main&#038;Catalog_Name=New%20Just%20Jeans&#038;Level1click=Womens" rel="nofollow">http://www.justjeans.com.au/JU.....ick=Womens</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/australian-shopping-resources#post-107187 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 07:09:32 +0000 stringy 107187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In another thread some of us Aussie gals were thinking that it'd be nice to pool our shopping resources. We don't have the huge range of choices that are available overseas, but there's definitely good stuff out there. If you've found a good website or blog or heard about something nifty that works Down Under, please feel free to jump in and share!</p> <p>I like to look at clothing ranges online to narrow down my choices before trying stuff on. Here's my favourites:</p> <p><a href="http://www.witchery.com.au" rel="nofollow">http://www.witchery.com.au</a> - excellent quality</p> <p><a href="https://shop.sportsgirl.com.au/index.html" rel="nofollow">https://shop.sportsgirl.com.au/index.html</a> - great for up-to-the-minute accessories, but the styles are often a bit extreme for my tastes (if only I were 19 again!)</p> <p><a href="http://www.frenchconnection.com.au/" rel="nofollow">http://www.frenchconnection.com.au/</a> - sale items are often down to 60% of original price</p> <p><a href="http://www.jeanswest.com.au/Womens.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.jeanswest.com.au/Womens.html</a> - for denim and fashion tees</p> <p>For shoes I like:<br /> <a href="http://wittner.com.au/" rel="nofollow">http://wittner.com.au/</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.zomp.com.au/" rel="nofollow">http://www.zomp.com.au/</a> - website has been 'coming soon' for a year now. And their shoes are super-expensive. But when stuff goes on sale, it really goes on sale. I've bought sandals that were $145 down to $40. </p> <p>OK - your turn now! </p>
