Shopping for clothes can be a hassle sometimes. Some people prefer online shopping, while others would rather go to the store in person. There are great stores online that offer a wide selection of clothing at decent prices, that many are not aware about.
1. Nasty Gal
Unfortunately, we do not have a Nasty Gal store in New York, but if you are ever in California, they have two stores, one in Santa Monica and another in Los Angeles. Nasty Gal has many pieces, they have great dresses for going out and unique shoes. I personally love drooling over their Jeffrey Campbell shoes. The store also has a lot of cool vintage clothing. The store was founded by a woman named Sophia Amoruso, she wrote a book called "Girl Boss", where she talks about how she made the "fast growing company." Overall the store offers an eclectic variety of clothes and is suitable for anyone's style. The store is currently having a 70 percent off sale on their site.
2. Zara
You can find anything at this store from basics to silk shirts, to co-ord sets. Their prices range, so you definitely can find decently priced tops, sweaters, and jeans. It's typically the outerwear and shoes that are a bit more expensive.They carry men, women, and children's clothes. The closest store is located at the Walt Whitman Mall. There is also one at, Roosevelt Field Mall.
The online website is aesthetically pleasing. When you click on a clothing item it shows multiple photos in different angles of the pieces. It also shows pieces that you might consider pairing the selected item with. My favorite item to purchase from Zara are their over-sized denim jackets, they are the perfect length and a must-have for the fall season.
3. Brandy Melville
If you have an obsession with stripes, you will love this store. There are many Brandy Melville locations in the city; however, you can also find select items at your local Pac Sun. This store has really great staple pieces such as t-shirt dresses, ringer tees, and graphic tops.
4. Asos
Asos is an online store that sells brands such as Adidas, Mink Pink, and many more. The site offers a 10 percent discount to students. They carry clothes for men and women, and they include petite and plus size. If you are unsure about purchasing an item, the site offers a video of the model walking down the runway with the selected item. This is a great feature since it is an online store and you can't physically try on the items. My favorite brand to purchase from this store is Monki. This brand has a lot of unique patterns and clothing.
5. Top Shop
Top Shop is one of my favorite stores by far. They sell so many unique and in-trend pieces for both men and women. Although some of their clothing can be pricey, they do offer a student discount. Their clothes are also made with good material so you are essentially getting what you paid for. Many people obsess over their jeans that range from $50 - $80, but last a long time and rarely fade. My favorite items to buy from this store are its shoes. I bought a pair of Chelsea boots from Top Shop, and they have lasted me a long time, and go with any outfit.
Nordstrom actually carries Top Shop clothing. The closest Nordstrom store is located at the Roosevelt Field Mall. The site has a browse by collection option, where you can choose if you want to look for clothing that is work wear, street wear, or back to school essentials.
There is also a "My Topshop Wardrobe quiz" where you can choose items you like, and what you would describe your style as. The quiz then chooses clothes and accessories that fit under your style.
