Fashionable Fridays ~ Decisions Decisions

Right before Thanksgiving, I headed to a Holiday Preview by Ideeli. Seeing a number of cashmere items, holiday gifts and more, I was pleased to hear that in addition to the brands you will see over the next few weeks, you'll enjoy fab benefits. Ideeli has also joined the business model where you buy something and pay a one time $9.95 so that you can have free shipping when shopping! In addition, since holiday shopping online is the way I like to go. As you buy., you can be sure that people can return items as late as Jan 15th!

This model of paying once to have an entire month shipping free is perfect and is apart of Rue La La's model It encourages us to shop regardless. In addition, for the cost of paying a flat shipping rate for the entire year, you will also receive 2 $50 cards. Check out both as they sell a number of must have items and experiences!

Fashionable Fridays: Get The Look With Ideeli

If you have yet to join Ideeli, you are truly missing out on great finds! Not only are they pieces that you have seen or have wanted but they are affordable due to their drastic pricing! How much do I love this Rafe clutch? A lot! It's perfect to wear to cocktail parties and after five. How much do I love the fact that it's over $1,000 but you can get it for under $500??? I think it makes it an even better buy! Ideeli knows how to get what you want without making your bank account feel lonely! I love getting emails about new items that are available - who knows what will be on there next?

Cyber Monday: Ideeli Kicks Us Off in the Right Direction

Happy Cyber Monday! I'm more excited about this day than any other (Black Friday - who needs the lines when you can shop from your computer no matter where you are) in terms of shopping. There are so many good deals and to that end, I present Ideeli to you. I have talked about them a lot on here but it's because it's one of my favorite places to get super cute items from brands that you know at AMAZING prices. Today is no exception. If you're not a memeber, visit Ideeli and for your invitation code put in: Kitten. Today there are so many discounts available but I want to highlight my personal favorite that I hope to get! Linea Pelle has a great wallet that comes with two gifts - a $25 gift certificate that can be used at Linea Pelle and a $25 gift certificate that can be used at Ideeli if this is your first time signing up! This is great considering that the wallet is $89 - it's quite a steal overall! Below you will find other goodies that will be available today. Make sure you use the code to become a member so that you can get he emails giving you the fashionable heads up! Of course, I will let you know as well.

Fashionable Fridays: Gusto for Gustto

Oh boy today is a big day! By 10am I will be on the road heading to Skytop Lodge Resort for the Sweets Weekend in the Poconos! I think I need to get Twit Pic on my Blackberry so that I can keep you guys updated but I am unsure about the whole availability to blog from there. Anyway, I will be covering the Poconos as Paul and I have been invited to come up! But today is a great day for many reasons and one of them is the amazing sale that will take place today on Ideeli.

Ideeli is all about hooking you  up with deals and sending its members emails so that it can get first dibs! Of course if you're a first row member, you get to shop sooner as opposed to later. On today's menu, Gustto! I have always known about Gustto for sometime but it was this summer in a super cute store in Hoboken called Home Slice, that I fell in love with Gustto and the love affair began. I love their rich leather bags and their bag styles which are always eye catching. Now at Ideeli, you will be able to get your own at up to 64% off! In addition, you can check out other retailers such as Saks and Nordstroms who also sell this from the comfort of the page. Finally, find out about who is wearing it and visit Gustto's site. If you're not a member, I can hook you up so you can get in on the fun! If you have never signed up, when you sign in for this site, you can use the code "bff" to not only get your invitation but to initiate your $35 credit which is a great use towards your lovely new bag!

Wearable Wednesdays: Keep it Ideeli

I remember when I first joined Ideeli. It was a site where you knew that you could get access to a small quantity of items at a fraction of the price. All the goodies that you saw in the magazine were available here but in limited quantities and at set times. In addition, you could be a free member and have access while also being a paid member to get an advanced opportunity to score these coveted pieces! But like all things, a good idea starts and takes shape in other ways. Ideeli not only has items but giveaways as well and they also help you build your style. See a bag that you love, it may not be available yet or sold out but you can see where Barney's may have other items like this or go back to the brands site and purchase items from there. In addition, you can see what celebs love the brand as well. I also love that you can see what is currently offered versus what will be available soon! Ideeli loves Kitten Lounge and I love you so I am giving you a link that will allow you to gain access to these great finds! Just enter: fashionmaven and let the fun begin!
