Ann Taylot Loft, Lucky Brand, and Fossil too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-help-me-shop-the-states#post-229433 Sun, 10 Oct 2010 01:32:50 +0000 Sally 229433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wish I'd read this post last year. I went to the US for 3 weeks with an empty suitcase and no-one I stayed with really had any idea about shopping...it was all trial and error. But I bought the best skinny jeans at American Eagle which my friend said was the best skinny jeans she'd ever set eyes on.. Great jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-help-me-shop-the-states#post-229402 Sun, 10 Oct 2010 00:04:56 +0000 Anonymous 229402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's going to be harder to buy summer items right now. All "first line" stores such as Gap, Ann Taylor etc, had their summer inventory on clearance a while back. I think there is going to be slim pickings in the clothing department, unless you go to places like overstock.com as suggested. </p> <p>As far as shoes, I have seen some major summer clearance on shoes from Amazon.com, that it is still going on. All sandals appear to be marked down:<br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/search/ref=sr_nr_n_1?rh=n%3A672123011%2Ck%3Asandals%2Cn%3A%21672124011%2Cn%3A679337011&#038;bbn=672124011&#038;keywords=sandals&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1286668637&#038;rnid=672124011" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/searc.....=672124011</a><br /> Also check endless: ( The sister site to Amazon)<br /> <a href="http://www.endless.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.endless.com/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-help-me-shop-the-states#post-229392 Sat, 09 Oct 2010 23:30:31 +0000 Megan 229392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For shoes- I go with <a href="http://www.heels.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.heels.com</a> (great prices, international shipping- free if over $250, otherwise reasonable priced fast shipping) or amazon.com- endless also list on amazon- the key difference being that when the listing are from amazon some of them are available for international shipping I got a couple of pairs of sandals from amazon for $20 a pair (clarks and naturalizers)</p> <p><a href="http://www.6pm.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.6pm.com</a> is awesome for shoes (I haven't ordered anything else from there before but have looked at their jeans etc). No international shipping so I use HOPSHOPGO to forward the parcels. 6pm's standard shipping takes awhile and you can only return for 30 days so it gets tight for time! </p> <p>Return postage of a pair of shoes to the US is over $40 so I read EVERY review I can get my hands on to make sure I get the right size. </p> <p>For jeans- <a href="http://www.revolveclothing.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.revolveclothing.com</a>. Free international shipping for orders over $100. I found a few stores here in Sydney that sell most of the designer brands of jeans, so I try on there then order.<br /> <a href="http://www.shopbop.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.shopbop.com</a> also have free international shipping over $100 (3 day shipping too!) but are a little more expensive than revolve generally. </p> <p>I'm biased towards places that sell good petite sizes but I've had good success ordering from Ann Taylor and Ann Taylor Loft- again, no international shipping. Sizing is a gamble since they don't have reviews posted online. </p> <p>BR/Gap/ON- do have international shipping but I don't use it as it's REALLY expensive. I might use it if I was putting in a BIG order (more than 8 items). Otherwise I wait for codes, get free US shipping to HopShopGo and get it forwarded.<br /> One issue- they don't take international credit cards. Most of my orders have gone through fine using the shipping address as my billing address but they obviously do random checks and one of my orders was cancelled. Very annoying. Apparently they usually email you before they cancel but for some reason that didn't happen and the BR rep on the phone was very apologetic. </p> <p>I've looked at Overstock before but haven't ordered- no international shipping. </p> <p>Jcrew still have some summer things and have an online outlet that's open only on weekends- they have pretty, frilly, girly things. Again, no international shipping. </p> <p>American Eagle have cute sweats (Angie's choice of loungewear!) and some cute tees- it's targetted more at juniors so the sizing is junior sizing. </p> <p>Express.com had surprisingly good quality tees (much better than what we get here!) and I really like their editor pants- nicely cut, wash well and go on sale regularly! No international shipping.</p> <p>What a LONG post- HTH </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-help-me-shop-the-states#post-229359 Sat, 09 Oct 2010 21:02:28 +0000 Sparky 229359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, let's see ~ Overstock.com. Sierratradingpost.com, 6pm.com, amazon.com all come to mind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-help-me-shop-the-states#post-228239 Thu, 07 Oct 2010 22:30:20 +0000 Queen Mum 228239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>have you looked into overstock.com for leftover summer wear? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-help-me-shop-the-states#post-228236 Thu, 07 Oct 2010 22:21:52 +0000 puffenstuff 228236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Aussie dollar is at an all time high at the moment - almost upto AUD $0.99 for USD $1 - and it's more than a little tempting to buy into some of the fab stuff that us Aussies wouldnt normally get. I'm relying on you USA gals to let me in on any of your little secret online stores to see if I can do some bargain shopping for our warmer weather. </p> <p>Come on now spill the beans I know you want to </p>
