6. Does HauteLook ship internationally?

 

Currently, HauteLook ships only to the US and Canada. However, we are committed to giving everyone insider's access to the world's best brands, so we're looking into the best ways to serve our international members.

 

We can't unfortunately

I know that. I will use a global shopping service. It will be delivered to the US address of that service first. Then I just need to pay for the postage to China.

 

This is the service I use now. www.onenow.com It's for asia only.

 

I'm sure there are similar ones in Euro.

[Frida]

oh yeah, just like myus

[Bellamy]

So that's not a problem. We just need to decide if the discount worth the international postage(and possible duties).

I got some amazing swimwear from Aussiebum. I love their motto:

 

"If you doubt yourself, wear something else."

[Frida]

Is there anything special you're looking at?

[Bellamy]

I'm new to that site. Seems it offer sales of different brands at limited times only. So I don't know if they have what I want.

 

The only thing I'm really looking for is the BV messenger bag. I know US retail stores had some 50% off sales recently. Hope I can find such discount online or in China.

[Frida]

Yeah, they have "flash sales" I guess you could say..

 

 

 

 

 

Nathalie Schuterman is having their 70% sale now and I'm too tired for another Stlhm trip this week Hopefully next week...

[SensationalCeline]

Aww thanks!

That outfit looks amazing. Thank you for the suggestion!

 

the shoes you bought are really cute

I have a bunch of shoes that were probably inspired by designers

........probably because I'm going into my first year of college and as much as I would like to get a shelf full of louboutins and choos I have to buy a shelf of books instead....so the imitations are in my price range and can still look just as cute. or if I see a really cute pair that I can't afford then sometimes I'll stumble across or even look for an imitation.. I'll save the debt of labels for when I'm a little bit older (can't wait lol)

 

if you like the shoes and I assume you do because you bought them.. be proud and strut your stuff in them.. don't let the fact that they don't have a big name label in them get you down... I don't... wear them loud and wear them proud.

 

 

 

 

 

wear them loud and wear them proud.

 

Words of gold really!.. Well, it's not only about shoes but about everything in general. Unless you wear everything loud and proud you may buy ANY labels and you'll still be sorta the 'misfit'. But when you realise how cool you are... And all of us are just TOTALLY cool As for me I have some labels in my closet - T-shirts, jackets and jeans basically - but also I have PLENTY of clothes by totally NOONE and I feel OK about it 'cause it still looks amazing on me

 

 

Thank you both for that. That makes me feel loads better but yes, I adore them. They are gonna be my first day back to school shoes!!! I will def. wear them loud and proud.

I need a bag for work. Any good/cheaper alternatives to the BV messenger bag?

You'll need a chiefcase for work? Or you want a shoulder bag? I use a Thinkpad OEM Targus double shoulder bag for work.

[Koolan]

What's a chiefcase? I prefer a shoulder bag.

[Frida]

What are you looking for Vic? Messenger, briefcase? Leather, canvas?

[Bellamy]

What's a chiefcase? I prefer a shoulder bag.

Sorry. I meant briefcase. I don't know where do I get that word.

 

For a shoulder bag, Targus, Simsonite or Victorinox should be good.

[Krys]

ive seen some nice Golla ones too if you're looking for one that fits a laptop in it

[Koolan]

What are you looking for Vic? Messenger, briefcase? Leather, canvas?

Messenger, nothing really fancy but something durable and comfortable. I just need to carry my lunch, water, and some other small items.

[Bellamy]

You should just say Messenger. I've seen some from Calvin Klein and Hugo Boss on sale for less than $150, which are not bad.

That's so funny, I haven't heard of them before

[LuisMa]

Probably because it's just for men, Em.

[CelineRox]

 

Yeah but still,

Coach has some really nice ones in both leather and fabric, but I don't know how much you're willing to spend? And Zappos has a whole lot of more casual looking messengers (at low prices)

[Koolan]

$100-$200.

[Bellamy]

I would recommend these from Marc By Marc Jacobs. They are on sale on BlueFly right now, extra 15% off.

I like the blue one myself.

Hugo Boss bag on sale now. But they don't have a US online store. I think they are on sale in retail stores too.

 

This one is not bad.

[Bellamy]

Amazing quickie deal on BlueFly. Too bad they don't have a single bag for man there. 4 hours only.

[Frida]

oooh my they have the YSL Majorelle

[Bellamy]

oooh my they have the YSL Majorelle

Why not get it now? The price is amazing.

 

They even have some Hermes. I think it's hard to find Hermes on sale anywhere?

[Frida]

1) Just cancelles my myUS account, I never used it

2) I'm getting the LV Eva this week hopefully, after that I need to cut back on shopping for a while, I've spent outrageous amounts lately..

 

But it's such a good priiiiice

You can always get a new account. Second reason is the real problem.

[Frida]

Yeah, I guess I can, but still.. I never used it.. (and saks has started to ship internationally, maybe neimans and the rest will too within a couple of years), that's not the problem I guess, but I'd like to have an emergency savings account of at least $8,000, preferrably 10,000, so I really need to slow down and appreciate what I already have (which I do of course). There are just so many pretty things out there calling my name LOL I really need to get well enough to work soon, I'm not sure my willpower can last very long

[MTJ]

Frida I'd love to know where you work. right now my savings is like $120 :-(
