The wonderful Divine Caroline, a website dedicated to women (a must read for all ladies of all ages) recently released an article about the top iPhone apps for fashionistas. Essential? Of course not – but they’re fun and (mostly) free so let’s see what they boiled down to:
4th Place – Stylish Girl
Stylish Girl is your fashion store, your closet organiser, packing list, shop assistant and is your penultimate personal stylist. It also sends you a daily dose of fashion news. The app allows users to photograph their wardrobes and ‘drag n drop’ pieces together without having to dig through piles of neatly organised clothes. When you’re out shopping it can even act as a great buy it or leave it tool – does it match with enough of your existing wardrobe? (Which would probably still be followed by a big fat yes!)
3rd Place – Style.com
Style.com has access to pretty much every last runway show from New York, London, Milan, and Paris. Great for killing time on a long commute.
2nd Place – ShopStyle Mobile
According to one self-proclaimed shopping addict, it’s the one app that’s “totally indispensable for bargain/comparison shoppers.” Do a keyword search for clothing, shoes, bags, jewellery, you name it; then narrow your results by price, colour, label, or what’s on sale.
1st Place – Lucky at Your Service
Lucky Magazine released their digital shopping concierge in March 2009, where shoes featured in their magazine can be found and tracked down to the store that supplies them closest to you.
Once you’ve found your favourite you can select your size and colour and the heels, wedges, boots or whatever other shoe you desire will be reserved for you to pick up within 10 minutes. Lucky – why aren’t you available in the UK?
