AniqueMichelle.com: A Chic & Fabulous Find

Jan 16, 2010 | Fashion, Score!

I received, in my inbox the other day, an introduction to AniqueMichelle.com.  Granted, I had not heard of the store before, but once I started browsing around I immediately added the boutique to my must-check shopping sites.

First, every single item at AniqueMichelle is under $60!  That’s enough to make me sit up and take notice.  Plus, they ship internationally (to a number of countries, including Canada, Australia, Germany, Hong Kong, Belgium, Japan, the U.K., Sweden, and Singapore), and offer Standard Shipping for $6 in the U.S.  I also love that their items are unique and I haven’t already seen them a million times before in other e-boutiques on the web.

Owner and creator Anique writes, “I am very passionate that style doesn’t have to cost a lot and it is my goal with AniqueMichelle to provide stylish clothing, jewelry and accessories at an affordable price.”  I hear ya!

Take a look below at some of the fabulous clothing, jewelry, accessories, and handbags she offers – and, if you are sorely tempted by the insanely affordable prices – feel free do a little shopping!  For Chic Steals readers only, Anique is offering 20% off your entire purchase at AniqueMichelle.com…. just enter the code chicsteals at checkout to receive 20% off your entire order from now until January 31!  Now if that’s not incentive…I don’t know what is!

Thank you, Anique – and I hope you gals enjoy!

Ideeli Wants to Know Your Opinion: Fur & Pop-Up Shops!

Jan 14, 2010 | Fashion

Ideeli has a couple more one-question polls for ya if you enjoy taking these things.

Earlier this month, David Arquette started prepping for the final blowout sale at his pop up shop, Propr Clothing on Abbott Kinney Boulevard in Venice, CA. Propr is closing after being open for 3 months.

The idea of a pop up store at first glance is a genius idea for a brand or designer that wants to showcase a diffusion line, or who cannot fully commit to a long term lease. But now has the pop up charm worn off especially since so many ho-hum sample sale events are now trying to bill themselves as “pop ups”? Share your opinion with us. Take the poll below. Feel free to share the names of your favorite pop up shops in the comment box.


 

The new PETA ad featuring First Lady Michelle Obama, which the White House says is using Michelle Obama’s image without her permission, is  popping up in Washington’s Metro stations, magazines, and PETA’s Web site. Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey, Carrie Underwood, and Tyra Banks  all shun wearing fur. We want to know your thoughts on the fur debate. Take our poll below and remember, we love you either way!

And, if you’re not a member of Ideeli.com yet, click here to use my invite code and gain access to some of the best designer brands out there, on sale for up to 80% off!
