Wistful Thinking....

Oh! I've created a wist list with widgets! Search engine, gift registry, deal finder and window shopper all in one.

Untrained eyes beware:The only glitch I found so far is the site's inability to decipher knock off Christian Louboutins from the real deal. The same applies to all items I am sure so if its not a known site you are being linked to, be very cautious. [segue way]Unless of course you don't care if you are purchasing a knock off in which case you should be burned at the stake for your participation in enslaving thousands of adolescent sweatshop workers in third world countries. Not to mention spitting in the faces of every fine craftsman, seamstress and designer who puts countless HOURS into hand-crafting just one piece. Yes its true that emulation is the greatest form of flattery but trust me, its not only the knock-offs that look bad and cheap - you do too. [end segue way].

Happy shopping!

EShoppers Rejoice!

So I had this wonderfully written blog about my (mis) adventures with a Kentucky Derby hat. While I did save halfway through, I unfortunately let my ADHD get the best of me and towards the end of the second half of my entry, "OH! Whats this link?!" CLICK.  Gone.  Perhaps I've done you all a favor.   That being said I will instead present you with a cool site I stumbled upon this evening in my attempts to find a replacement hat:  

The heading above the multiple lists of couture designers reads simply:

"What can we find for you?" _____________________

Within a few short key strokes and clicks, I quickly discovered why this site was selected on TIME magazines Top 50 list.  You can literally search for products in simple laymen's terms.   For example, "Cropped leather jackets" :

 

Be sure to check out the affiliate links and of course the parent company : Thefind.com, its eco-friendly sister site HERE for everything green, and  for those who prefer to try before they buy, LOCAL find is the site for you!

Iphone apps and twitter updates are also available for the true die hard fashionistas out theres that need up-to-the-minute alerts and last but certainly not least, Recessionistas of the world can rejoice with valuable savings coupons HERE.  

Enjoy!

 Love, 

Leah
