Today we are talking about shopping, that long standing
tradition that I write down whenever I have to fill in the HOBBIES AND INTEREST
section on any form.
I know a few people who do not like
shopping. I never really understood that sentiment. And if you are someone that
does not like shopping, then this
post is not for you.
And if you DO like shopping, go and get a
cuppa before we start. You will require sustenance.

Aussie has asked
me to share my favorite online stores from overseas. I probably do spend more
time physically shopping than I do online shopping, because I consider it my
cardio, and we have to get in as much exercise as we can. Am I right?
But, I do tend to
head virtually overseas for several things that are just way cheaper when
ordered online. And, if I can be completely honest, the range offered in far
more extensive.
FASHION
You are going to
have to get yourself familiar with this first.
CYBERSWIM
Ok, we are going
to rip the band aid off and start with swimmers. I buy my swimmers online as I
only wear the brand Miraclesuit. To buy these in Australia, you are looking at
up to $300. I KNOW!
I would never spend that much on a cossie, but these ones suit my wobbly bits and ample chesticals the best. They last a long time and are so comfy. And they really do shave the kegs off. It is the magical, “miracle” fabric that sucks you in like it ain’t nobodies business!

Visit CyberSwim
for the best deals around - http://www.cyberswim.com/ Here you will pay $148, not $230 charged
in Australian department stores. They cater for all body shapes and sizes.
Check them out. I think you will like them.
BLOOMINGDALES
& MACYS
The business when
it comes to anything and everything. It is one of my favourite places to online
shop. You shop in Australian dollars and they have very low shipping rates. Like
my other fave Macy’s, the choice is staggering. And yes, I have the hots for this watch at
$73.70.
URBAN OUTFITTERS
Fancy outfits for
hipsters, of which I am clearly not. But what gets me all hot under the collar
and foaming from the mouth is their collection of very affordable and funky home
wares. I even made a little collage for you, to show you what I am lusting
after! Prices a fraction of what you would pay here.
STRAWBERRYNET
The thing about
buying beauty products in Australia that gives me the irrits is the price! We
are paying up to double people, and it's just not cricket
So when
I first popped my Internet shopping cherry with a strawberry, I was beyond
delighted! This site is a mega powerhouse of discounted top brand names. If you
need it on your face, chances are they are selling it. For a lot less.
Free
delivery, and each product comes beautifully wrapped, so it is like getting a
gift, for you. Or they will send it to any address as an actual gift.
But let’s get back
to prices shall we? See this little Stila eye shadow that I adore? In the store
it will cost you $45, but at this site it will cost you $22.50. SEE WHAT I
MEAN?
ONLINE SHOPPING
USA
The Mac Daddy of
them all, this site rolls all of the most popular online stores under the one
roof. With outlets such as Shopbob, Modcloth, Endless, Revolve and dozens more,
this might be the best place to start searching for the perfect…… well,
whatever you are after!
So there are a few of my
favorite sites that I can get lost in for hours. Did you find any of these helpful?
I would love it if you wanted
to add any of yours in the comment section.
