RueLaLa I Heart You

I'm a slave to my computer between the hours of 11AM and 12:15ish. Why? Well, it's because RueLaLa and Hautelook opens it's boutiques at 11AM EST and Gilt starts at noon EST. Duh.

All three of those sites are invitation only fashion and luxury brand sales at prices up to 70% off retail. AMAZING! I originally heard about RueLaLa on DC101 and Elliot in the Morning. Elliot was complaining about his wife constantly buying things on RueLaLa. As soon as I got into the office that morning, I immediately had to find out what the big deal was. A few days later, I had my invitation and I was off to the races. Soon, I had invited all the girls in the office and it became an obsession.

Soon after, I also joined Gilt and Hautelook. I also belong to Ideeli, but don't frequent that one as much.

A few weeks ago, RueLaLa had a Lilly Pulitzer sale. I don't normally like Lilly's stuff. It's just a little too loud for me I guess. But they had this super adorable navy, nautical-themed tunic dress that I knew would be perfect for work, shopping, and wearing out to dinner. And I have the perfect straw wedges to go with it. So I quickly snagged one up! You have to be quick on all these sites, because stuff goes really really fast. I still haven't been able to snag anything quick enough on Gilt!

It arrived on Monday night and lucky me, it fits like a glove! :) Here are some pictures of my newest and most favorite purchase thus far on RueLaLa (it even has little pockets on the front!)

Unfortunately, I wasn't so lucky with my aforementioned straw wedges. Mabel got into the closet and felt that Mom didn't need those shoes anymore. Here's evidence of the closet break-in (this wasn't the only pair she ruined that day mind you)
This one actually isn't that bad compared to the other shoes she's eaten, but I'm still not sure if it's fixable. Hopefully it's nothing a little super glue can't fix! :)

If you're interested in receiving an invitation to either RueLaLa, Hautelook, Gilt, or Ideeli, email me @ lschwartz531@gmail.com and I'll email you back an invitaiton with an access code. Each one sells men's, women's, and children's clothes, accessories, and jewelry, and also has home goods every once in awhile.


Happy Shopping!
