Look Book: Less Than Preppy Collar


I have recently re-discovered my love for etsy. There are so many creative people selling their art, and there is always something for everyone. Two years ago, I ordered about 50 handmade personalized leather bracelets for a bunch of camp friends and they were the coolest things. The was the last purchase I made from etsy till a couple of weeks ago. I found this brand 'Neat.' that makes collar vests, a unique version of a dickie. You could technically wear the vest over a shirt, but the main idea is to get that preppy collar look, without the extra material underneath. I wore my peter pan collar under two different sweaters, and discovered how comfortable it was. I was worried that the collar wouldn't fit right or wouldn't actually fit under my sweaters, but it was perfect. I think the idea is so creative, they are so well made, and the designers are from Tel Aviv, Israel! You should all go check them out!

Helpful Tips: Online Shopping the Cheaper Way


There is no better way to waste time than by shopping online (ha. that rhymes...kinda). But once you've scrolled through and added every possible item to your cart, you realize how expensive everything is! Not to mention adding the price of shipping. But to all you online-shopping-addicts, there is a solution. Well, 5 to be exact.
I found a bunch of websites that not only sell amazing products, but also have a ton of discounts and sales that will cause you to never shop online anywhere else ever again. There is nothing better than getting 20% off an item and not having to pay for shipping. Literally nothing!
So what are these stores and what make them so great? Let me tell you...

Tobi 
http://www.tobi.com/

The concept of Tobi is "latest fashion at amazing prices". Sounds good to me.
The clothing is super trendy, minimalist, and affordable. If you spend over $50 (which when you are shopping for clothing it's pretty hard not to do) you get free shipping and free returns. The best part is, when you first sign up for their mailing list you get 50% off your first entire purchase. And, you can always unsubscribe from their mailing list afterwards!

Skinnydip
http://www.skinnydiplondon.com/


If I am going to be completely honest, Skinnydip may not be the cheapest. It is, although, super student friendly. There is a 20% student discount! The stuff is super quirky and unique so the price may actually be pretty fair. Also, if you sign up for the mailing list you get a 10% discount. To be honest, the price is worth it.

ASOS
http://www.asos.com/


Most of you have probably already heard of ASOS. It always has amazing sales (right now there is a sale for up to 50% off!!) and there is free shipping worldwide, but for different places there is a different price you need to pay before you get free shipping. There is also a 10% student discount. ASOS carries a ton of products both for women and men, and has an awesome thing called the marketplace. The ASOS Marketplace is a lot like ebay. It is a platform for buying or selling new, pre-owned, and vintage fashion. You can shop directly form independent labels and vintage boutiques, or sell your own products.

feelunique.com
http://www.feelunique.com/

feelunique.com is "the destination for beauty". Any cosmetic and beauty product you could possibly need is sold on this website. It offers a ton of discount options and gifts. After you make your purchase, you get to choose some free samples that they throw in as well, depending on whether you have spent a certain amount or bought certain things. My favorite way of getting free things is through the giveaways. There is always a ton of giveaway options for endless different brands and products, and all you need to do is sign up and wait to see if you have won. I haven't won yet, but what is better than free stuff?! They offer free worldwide shipping on orders above $15, which, to be honest, if you are shopping for beauty products, you are bound to spend that much.

It is totally free. Also, if you refer your friends to UNiDAYS®, you get to claim gift voucher rewards! You'll be credited for each and every friend you refer (but I guess I don't get any rewards for posting about it here). You can use these discounts online and in-store.
