Being a strong mother and a reliable spouse is obviously important, but often these everyday responsibilities really cut into our shopping time. Thank goodness for the Internet, where inexpensive, fashionable clothing is just a click (and a few shipping days) away.
However, most moms resign themselves to the options they find on popular online retailers, not realizing there is an entire Web of amazing e-boutiques with low prices and high fashion. To continue your shopping education, here are our favorite 10 underrated online clothing stores that make compiling a trendy wardrobe fast, easy, and exceptionally fun.
10 Online Clothing Shops You’ll Love
1. Be Inspired
Motherhood seems to have a strange effect on some moms, making them find matching outfits absolutely adorable. Be Inspired Boutique allows moms to dress their daughters “just like mommy,” and we have to admit, the effect is too cute to bear. Unlike matchy-matchy clothes of yore, these outfits are fashionable, comfortable, and well-priced, with most dresses falling between $30 and $45.
2. IGIGI
For decades, a little extra weight was more than enough reason for some moms to stay out of the fashion game, but these days, plus-sizers are celebrating their bodies with awesome style. IGIGI, an exclusively plus-size retailer out of San Francisco, makes it that much easier to find outstanding contemporary clothing. Although, the dresses can be expensive, averaging between $110 and $250.
3. 6pm
If you have a major weakness for name brands, this is the online shop for you. 6pm.com provides unbelievable discounts on clothes, shoes, and accessories for men, women, and children, and nearly everything they sell comes from a recognizable designer, like Tommy Hilfiger or BCBGMaxazria. However, whenever and wherever you spend money online, you should remember to shop safe and smart.
4. Singer22
Alternatively, as a fashionable housewife, you might veer more toward budding trends rather than those already well-established. In that case, you will love the up-and-coming designers featured on Singer22. Unafraid to experiment with new cuts, colors, and crazes, this online store contains some daring (and delightful) fashion options at assorted prices, as low as $9 and as high as $2,000.
5. 599 Fashion
Sometimes, you don’t need new exciting evening outfits or stunning street ware; sometimes, you just need clothing basics. Enter: 599 Fashion, which sells simple clothing at no more than $5.99 each. Though you can’t expect exceptional quality, you can look forward to comfortable clothes that will get you through the day — which is often all a mom really needs to survive.
6. HUMAN
Somewhere in the world, there is a graphic tee that perfectly sums up your life outlook — and it is probably at HUMAN. Specializing in smart sayings, this retailer offers some must-have articles of clothing, especially for moms who love to advertise their motherhood. Additionally, this is a great online shop for clever and creative gifts, since no item exceeds $30.
7. Reformation
Recently, the media has been abuzz about the dangers of increasingly cheap clothing. Major retailers like Forever 21 and Gap are able to provide fashion-for-less because they employ unsustainable and at times dangerous manufacturing processes. The online store Reformation refuses to submit to such irresponsible practices, and as a result, the site offers amazing fashion that doesn’t hurt the Earth. Of course, such social justice comes at a cost: between $80 and $500 for a dress.
8. Boutique 1861
If you are going to go vintage, you have to go to Boutique 1861. This online store is a mecca for charmingly pretty clothing perfect for quaint events. They sell ornate dresses perfect for formal events, like proms or weddings, but their everyday-ware is equally delightful. You can find simple dresses for less than $20, but more elaborate vintage style can cost over $500.
9. Sourpuss Clothing
Then again, not all vintage is created equal. Sourpuss Clothing throws back to a different era; the kitschy, retro, pin-up style is perfect for moms who prefer a different path. It isn’t difficult to stand out at the monthly PTA meeting when you pair one of these funky dresses with a sleeve-full of tattoos. Plus, the clothes are excessively affordable, averaging around $40 per dress.
10. eShakti
The bane of the online shopper is the fit: Without the chance to try on before you buy, you could end up with a dress two sizes too small or pant legs so long you step on them. Thankfully, eShakti has solved this online shopping conundrum with custom tailoring available on any purchase. You can even change the necklines or sleeve lengths to suit your personal style. We sincerely hope that this is the way of digital shopping’s future
