Facebook Shopping


My new thing is shopping online. I am yet to meet a girl who does not have a genuine appreciation for trendy outfits, glamorous makeup, cute bags and shoes and if perhaps they do exist they don't know what they've been missing. I love them all and meanwhile my peers may gravitate towards liming (trini word for hanging out) drinking and just living up their youth the convenience that shopping over facebook has given me to enjoy these "limes" looking trendy has been awesome.

Shopping online is easy because it gives you the opportunity to access trends and styles that have not yet arrived on the local market.When clothing arrives on the Trinidad market it's very rare to come across original ideas and outfits as local buyers and trend shops tend to sell the same things.You constantly have to worry about going out and seeing someone wearing your outfit (total embarrassment especially if they are wearing it more fashionably than you are). I myself have been a victim of this so when i stumbled upon "Pretty Little Things" or "The Finer Things by Anella" i jumped at the opportunity at once and many days, spent my pitons on wearables that I liked. From dresses to swimsuits, the options and colors vary at very affordable prices. Prices ranging from $100-$200, making clothing for a non-worker affordable.
From time to time these sites tend to have sale and drop prices on a lot of stock which is actually the best time for purchasing gifts-cute trinkets like handbags or jewellery the list goes on and on.It's quite simple All you do is go on to your designated supplier copy the link for the object u desire and message the company.
Someone would respond to you almost immediately giving you bank account details so you can make a 50% deposit and your order should meet you within 2 -3 weeks.Sometimes the orders can be delivered as early as within the same day. It all depends on whether you ordered an in-stock item or an pre-ordered item.
I imagine that a lot of people may be skeptical at first as they have no idea where their money would be going so I recommend that they look out for a few things just for legitimacy reasons.

1)Try  to find contact information. ( Talking to someone on the phone may give you comfort)
2)Look back into old albums to see how long the site has been active.
3)Look at comments from other customers(just so you know you are not the only one)
4)Try to notice re-occurring customers( in most cases people would have purchased from the site before and the seller would try to maintain a relationship with this customer so they would have conversations over items.
Happy Shopping!!
