In my continuing search for exclusive sites with great designer deals, I have discovered a secret world of fashionistas, in which you have to receive an invitation to join and membership is not guaranteed. This site offers authentic designer goods at a 50-90% discount, and by "designer" I mean the coveted must haves: Prada, Kooba, Yves Saint Laurent, Balenciaga, etc.. not, dare I say it, "mall" brands.
Ideeli has two rows of membership: a premium membership which they call "first row" and a "2nd row" membership which is free. For a meager $7.99/month which is less than the cost of a manicure (I know don't I sound like one of those UNICEF commercials?) lol , you will get mobile phone alerts about sales and "giveaways" plus have the privilege of shopping early when a sale is going on. For me, I would upgrade my current membership just for the "giveaways" - where they send you a text letting you know what item they are giving away-for FREE. Of course supplies are limited and these sales/giveaways are definitely not for the those with no fashion stamina. True fashionistas will claw their way to get their hands on authentic merchandise at 70-90% off. Hail to Chanel! As a first row member, Ideeli functions like a couture utopia where everyone gets a chance to win because they keep a running tally of the "giveaway" winners so you can't win twice.
With regular email alerts updating you on the hot sales and what merchandise will be "coming soon" you don't want to be the only fashionista NOT in the know. Although membership isn't also open, Ideeli luvs A.Fashionista and has given me my own special code: labellover so my readers can join. Once you get in, forward to your friends and get rewarded with a $25 credit. They are so friendly they even have a facebook application! What are you waiting for?
