Hello my loves,
So, I contemplated doing this post and held off, purely for selfish reasons if I'm being honest - because I know the minute I share these sites with you all, you're going to love them as much as I do - and my secret shopping sites will no longer be secret!
But, you know I share everything with you guys because that's what I'm here for.
That being said, this post is going to be about some of my favourite Australian online stores.
Whenever I go out or have an event I like to wear something that not everyone has. that's why I usually turn to online shops. In the past few years however, online shopping has blown up and now everyone and their mother shops online. ASOS & Boohoo used to be my babies 9/10 years ago, (I used ASOS when it was A.S.O.S; As Seen On Screen - and they used to specialize in celebrity clothes and one of my 3rd year school disco dresses was from Boohoo so..I'm really showing my age! I used to beg my dad for his card to shop online!) I could nearly guarantee that nobody would have the same outfit as me, but now people shop one these sites as much as they do regular shopping if not more. So now when I go out, I see a lot of people wearing what I am, or else a very similar style. I don't mind this most times, but you know them times when you want to look super fabulous & special; I like to have something just a little bit different so I turn to my favourite Australian online stores.
This site is a firm long time favourite! The thing I have noticed about their maxi dresses is that they are not super long, not sure if this means that this site leans towards petite/average height people as opposed to tall - but I love it as I've never had to turn up a dress, so this suits me perfect. They have the most AH-MAZING work wear range called Executive Ponies, and my god, the clothes themselves are enough to make me switch career so I can wear office clothes every single day!
If you want an amazing going out dress or playsuit, this is the site for you. Not only is the price point fantastic, (I have seen some items from these sites being sold on american & European sites for nearly double the price in some cases) the quality is just on point. Their items are extremely unique - there is a SLIM chance of seeing anyone rocking your 'fit on a night out! You could pick me any item on this site and I would wear it and adore it.
This site is a boho girl's dream come true. They have the most stunning co-ord sets featuring beautiful maxi skirts with slits and lacy tops - to me this site screams festival/hippy and boho chic, beachy waves, summer. This site makes me feel some kind of way! I was attending a festival, I would definitely be rocking outfits from here. When I think of Australia, I imagine all the girls walking around on beaches dressed in these clothes!
So I think if you've ever heard of any Australian online shops Sabo Skirt will of been one of them. I found out about them off Carli Bybel (she is my favourite you-tuber of all time). Again, a boho lovers dream. Every item looks so enchanting and I just want every single thing! They have lots of flow-y, chiffon-y, silky items. Another great site if your are going to a festival or on holidays. They even have some gorgeous going out/evening dresses that would just be amazing for night time holiday outfits.
Ever wanted to look like those forever perfect Instagram girls who seem to always have their lives (and outfits) together?? This site has everything you need - they have the going out clothes yes, but they have an amazing collection of daytime outfits. They have all the amazing items you see on Pintrest and wonder where they came from! They also have a very good range of
Quay Australia Glasses. These are the most GORGEOUS sunglasses you will ever lay eyes on I promise. You will want every pair!
Team them with a bodysuit and pair of their destroyed Boyfriend jeans and you will be the most chic person in town. White Fox Boutique also stock the brand
'Nookie' Which is loved by Emily Ratajkowski & Shanina Shaik.
Again, where do I begin - I want everything every time on go to Lioness fashion - I want the entire site! For me, their playsuits/rompers are the best and most beautiful I have ever bought. They fit like a glove and they are always the perfect balance of flirty, yet cute and classy. Beautiful silky, float-y material is used in many of their items
So now that I have emptied all your wallets, let me give you the factual details about shopping from Australia:
1. When you go on the sites the items look expensive, but they are nearly always in Australian dollar and when you convert that to euro - most of the times you will be shocked at how amazing value the items are!
2. Shipping prices range from $9 AUD for standard shipping and $25 AUD for express shipping; which is roughly €5 or €16 respectively. Where possible I use standard shipping. It takes longer yes, but there is less chance of it picking up taxes.
3. Sizing wise I feel like Australian clothes are some of the truest to size clothing that I've ever tried - I feel like they are very consistent.
So there we have it, a round up of my favourite Australian online stores and a very small few of my favourite pieces they all currently have!
What are your favourite Australian online stores? I love finding new places to shop!
