My Zappos Shopping Spree :) – Part I
Yesterday, I received my $1000 Zappos giftcard in the mail from Marie Claire magazine for the style contest I won. I have never shopped at Zappos before but already know they have many great things! Although they are best known for selling shoes, they now sell EVERYTHING! Bags, shoes, jewelry…pretty much everything a girl could ever want!
It took me awhile to look around but I decided on ordering a few items and best of all, I got free overnight shipping AND received my order this morning, right before work! It really felt like Christmas in June! :)
So let’s take a look at what I picked out so far….
(Be sure to click on Zappos images to see a full description of the items I purchased):
MARC BY MARC JACOBS Logo Mirror Travel Fast Bag
I am totally in LOVE with this bag! I wasn’t 100% at first because I find most logo bags to be kind of tasteless and sometimes tacky. However, this bag is ultra chic. Why? Because I said so ;)
Before I made my final decision to buy this bag, I went to Bloomingdales yesterday to see if they carried the bag and after describing it, she knew right away the bag I was talking about. It was actually in a showcase because she only had 2 for sale. The only problem was, she only had this bag in the Pewter (silver) color and I needed to see the gold.
I loved the style and overall shape of the bag. I also love metallics because they go with everything and are always in style! Although the Pewter was nice, I am more of a gold person. I took a chance by ordering the gold and it’s perfect! It’s a light gold so it’s flashy but NOT overkill.
I knew the moment I saw these that I needed them in my life. No question about it. I have been in search of a shoe that is a bone beige/cream color because I already own too much black and need a light shoe to go contrast my black outfits.
I have not seen anything quite like these and LOVE heels with a cuff. They are hard to come by although they are definitely trending right now. I am extremely picky when I shop for shoes, everything needs to be perfect in terms of the STYLING DETAILS. I will sacrifice comfort for STYLE. This shoe gets extra brownie points because they seem to be very comfortable and stylish, all at the same time! I can’t wait to rock these! They are perfect in every way!
I have been looking for the perfect black romper and came across this one. I like the silhouette and the zipper front detail. The material is very lightweight and it’s very comfortable. Unfortunately, the size I ordered is slightly too small. I love it so much that I re-ordered a different size. I’m hoping the fit will be better this time!
If not, I also saw a few other black rompers I was interested in. It’s very hard to order clothing online when you can’t try it on.
Thankfully, Zappos has AMAZING customer service! I am loving my Zappos shopping experience thus far and plan to be a loyal Zappos customer!
