My Favorite Online Clothing Shops

I love Fashion. Everything about it, I love couture, designer labels, knock offs, thrift store finds, DIYs, and the rest. I find that there is a certain art form to dressings oneself. It might even be the most signifigant form of art, because the way a person dresses speaks volumes about who they are as a person; rich, poor, hippie, yuppie, hipster, goth, grunge. Fashion and how someone dresses is the ultimate statement of social class, and can also directly influence the way people treat you on a daily basis. There are certainly some forms of fashion that aren't quite my cup of tea, but on a whole, Fashion is the ultimate for of human expression. Here are my favorite online clothing stores, and keep in mind none of these are high fashion because honey, I don't have that kind of money.
1. Free People Clothing 

 

Ultimate Hippie/ Boho chic, Free people is kind of expensive but the pieces are absolutely gorgeous. If you like the flowy, macrame, crochet, headband type of style, then check out www.freepeople.com

2. Anthropologie

The clothing at Anthropologie is similar to Free People, but a little more feminine and modern I think. If you like 70's vintage with bright colors, bright floral prints and tweed, then this is the place for you. www.anthropologie.com
3. Urban Outfitters
Love this site for its staples. Basic tees tanks and camis make the start of a sexy outfit, and I just try and ignore all the hipster bait, like those ugly oxfords, and over-sized frames with no lenses. Everything is cheaply priced, and despite the fact that they have a habit of taking ideas from private designers and copying them, they are a solid option for quality clothing. www.urbanoutfitters.com

 

4.  American Apparel

American Apparel has caught a lot of flac recently, while deservedly so, for the sexual harassment suits brought against the owner and their troubles with bankruptcy. But I admire what they tried to do, which is to provide well made wardrobe staples like oxford button-ups, leggings, well fitting tees, t-shirts, cardis, bags, etc, all made in america. I admire the effort to try and keep the brand in the US, and some of their clothing is really nice. Check them out at www.americanapparel.com

5. American Eagle Outfitters
I absolutely love this store, and I own way too much clothing from it. The Jeans come in any cut you could want, from jegging to flare, and their tops are gorgeous and flowy, and generally are cut to show off the girls. The pants fit loosely compared to say abercrombie or hollister, but I assume it's because the target demographic is slightly older i.e. college kids and 20 somethings. I just can't say enough goods things about the price point and the flattering cut of most of the clothing there. It's awesome. www.ae.com

6. Hollister co. 
 I would consider these next two stores my guilty pleasures and some of my fave places to go to get flattering tops and awesome butt pants! LOL. Hollister even more so than Abercrombie, because I happen to have this obsession with California, and even though I know they are a huge franchise, I like them. Their tees are colorful and bright, their tops make your tits look amazing, and their skinny jeans make your ass look fabulous! They are expensive, but if you ever buy anything at full price there, then you probably got ripped off because it'll be on sale next week. www.hollisterco.com

7. Abercrombie and Fitch
Abercrombie is a staple for any girl who wants to own (like me) a bunch of cute tees, tank tops that are flowy and form flattering, and really cute shorts and come to just the right length. I am a size 12 and the sizes at abercrombie fit me perfectly. I love the rustic but polished style of their accessories like their bags and flip flops, and their shorts are to die for. Soo cute. Like I said, raid the sales rack. www.abercrombie.com
