As much as I love ShopBop and Revolve Clothing, I feel as if they don’t offer clothing at affordable price points and a lot of their clothing is grossly overpriced. Sure I like going to their site for virtual window shopping the latest trends, but I know I can find the same look elsewhere, at a cheaper price. On the other hand, they do have great sales and occasional promotions. And in fact, its the designers that are setting the price, not the online stores.
In the quest to find other online boutiques that do not dominate Google PPC or website ads, and offer different brands at affordable pricing, I came across some interesting sites. But keep in mind, affordable clothing does not need to translate into cheap clothing. One should never compromise quality or fit for price. Below are 5 boutiques with unusual brands with varying price points.
1. 
80’s Purple – Lust Item: Aryn K – Women’s Buckle Crop Jacket w/ Bow Detail, $82
2. 
Buy Definition – Lust Item: Mink Pink Hopstoch Skirt, $62. Very Vanessa Gossip Girl
3. 
Nimli – For the eco-friendly fashionista. All clothing is made from organic materials. Lust Item: EcoSkin Peridot Dress, $133
4.
Refinery29Shops – Lust Item: Hayden-Hardnett Ibiza Flight Tote, $185. The perfect carry all tote.
5. 
Zappos – I thought they just sold shoes, but also carry a wide array discounted designers. Lust Item: Ali Ro Roll Neck Belted Dress, $170. I own it in red.
Still too expensive? Check out Lulus and Urban Outfitters. Most peices are under $100. As in the words of SJP, “Fashion is not a Luxury.”
