Another round of cool websites

After my last post, I've discovered a few more cool websites...at least, cool for those of us fashionistas out there! Here are a few fashion-related sites that have recently caught my eye:

Yooz.com
Vintage Christian Dior for sale! Need I say more? My only complaint is that several items are already sold out. Here's hoping they replenish their stock soon!

Ideeli.com
The mecca of all websites for handbag fanatics. Join for free to get "second row" or pay a subscription to get "first row" to be in the first group to buy discounted designer bags.

BagBorroworSteal.com
I'll admit, at first I wasn't a big fan of this concept. Paying to borrow a designer accessory? I have too much pride to do that! Or do I? After reading the "How it Works" section, I just may be sold on the idea. The subscription price is only $60 a year, then add on a charge depending on what type of items you're looking for. The cool thing is you can keep borrowing an item for as long as you like (or buy it if you really enjoy it)...plus there are no late fees!

The Style.com website always has great features and coverage of upcoming trends, runway shows and more. This link directs you to an article on the life and work of Yves St. Laurent, who recently passed away at the age of 71. What an amazing story! I appreciate the great detail within this article, not only about YSL's accomplishments, but about who he was as a person. A must-read about a true fashion icon.
