Let Your Fingers Do The Shopping

“When the going gets tough, the tough goes shopping.”

We all know how a little retail therapy goes a long way. At least, that works for me. When I am feeling stressed or down, all I want is to go shopping, feel them, try them or simply look at the latest trends and pretty things. But as a busy mom(and a stay home one), shopping time is definitely not something I can do as frequent as I used to be. I can barely squeeze enough time for a forty-wink and besides, our family works on a tight monthly budget with poor Aloysius being the only one bringing home the bacon now.

Sounds familiar?



The Great Discovery

 

So now, I indulge on the next best solution. Retail therapy - ONLINE! Online shopping is made convenient and easy for busy parents, like me and you. Who know as you are reading my blog, you might be browsing through the pages of Kate Spade at another window, looking at their latest collection of bags? And yes, but to only click the little cross at the top right corner in five minutes time as you know spending that $700 on that little clutch bag is not possible or practical unless 1) you decide to go on a vegan diet for the next couple of months, 2) Allysa drinks breast-milk again and let pees and poos around and 3) who are we kidding? Moms carry a army full pack when it's time for a trip out with the brady bunch. Alright, unless you decide that you want to carry a full pack and a clutch on the hand, that works fine too.

 Low and behold, everything seems to be made possible when I received this little email from a nice friend. It was an invitation to this international online shopping site, Reebonz (pronouce as ribbons). Being apprehensive if it was a spam, I did my research online. Now not only Reebonz is not a spam, it is the coolest online shopping site, ever! 

Reebonz is a members-invitation online shopping site that is known in their niche for offering luxurious labels at a discounted price. DISCOUNTED? Yes! I am not kidding. As quoted from Reebonz “a place where discounted luxury is not an oxymoron”. Or in other words, it’s like experiencing The Great Singapore Sale all year round at the click of your fingers. OMG! Oh, and definitely beats jostling among the crowd, queuing up to get into high-end lables stores, starred uncomfortably by the store's staff or to simply hunt for your favourite bag to only know it was sold like two minutes ago.

Outstanding Features

We know the catch about online shopping sites too. The steep shipping fee and the surprised custom tax and duties especially if you are shopping on international sites. Reebonz offers free shipment and absorbs custom tax and duties for its members. They offer zero-interest monthly installments for their shoppers at well.(okay, at least this saves me from the vegan diet.) Besides the above, you will receive email notifications from Reebonz to remind you of the upcoming event or set reminders on the sale events you are waiting for on your personal email system. Isn't that really thoughtful?

 Now, don’t we just love them even more?

 

My Reebonz Experience

Recently, I was contacted by Reebonz to share about their new line, Reebonz Kids. I can’t tell you how ecstatic I was. As a member myself, I have been “window shopping” on Reebonz for a while. I love the clean layout of the site that makes it really easy to maneuver and the well-taken photographs of the products that offer great details at sight(which is a value-added factor for shopping online).

So it was good to know that besides something for me, they are offering great quality stuffs like accessories, apparels and toys for kids at a fraction of the original cost.

 

Yesterday, I received my virgin surprise from Reebonz Kids. And I so-love receiving parcels and the anticipation for the surprise under those ribbons and boxes.

 “Unveil the surprise” and so I did. There, it was a lovely cotton dress from the French lable, 3 Pommes.

It was definitely an awww worthy moment.

I totally dig the dress and the pretty floral motifs with beads. It looks really sweet on my baby. It’s light, comfortable and perfect for a day out at the garden. Match it with a pair of white sandles, voila! And how apt it is to receive this gift now as I am searching for a nice little white dress for Allysa. Perfect timing!

I’m truly swooned.

A big Thanks, from Allysa and me, to Reebonz Kids for such a lovely shopping experience.
