Guest Post: Best Places to Buy Accessories Online in Australia
Saturday, August 18, 2012
In Australia, we’re pretty lucky because we
have a great pick of accessories stores: Equip, Gloss, Diva, Lovisa, and
Colette are just a few of the great and affordable places we can go to get our
jewelry and accessories fix.
But how many times have you walked down the
road and seen someone with the exact same piece of jewelry as you? It happens
more often than any of us would like. If you want something unique and
original, try a few of these online stores for your next accessories fix.
This Melbourne-based accessory company
started on the streets of trendy, bohemian inner-suburb, Fitzroy and grew to
supply major chains such as Myer, David Jones and Sportsgirl with jewellry and
accessories. The website offers a huge range of exclusive accessories, and even
have a section for jewellry that fits current trends (right now it’s pastels,
neons and brights, and Aztec), which is useful if you want to keep up with
fashion. When items go on sale – which is often – prices plunge to $5-$15, and
there is free shipping, so it’s both fun and affordable.
Filled with tons of unique, handmade goodies,
Etsy is the perfect place to search for unique items – anything from candles,
to pillows, to laptop cases – but especially jewelry and accessories. You can
either search the site for what you want specifically through the search bar,
or browse through the categories listed on the side of the home page. Since
there are so many people making and selling stuff on the site, there’s sure to
be something to catch your eye.
This online store is for the geek at heart;
whether you passion lies in maths, science, or even popular culture, Think Geek
has something for you. There is nothing more funky and original, in my opinion,
than wearing a few geek or nerd-themed accessories, and to find them, you need
look no further than ThinkGeek. You’ll find their range of jewelry and
accessories under T-shirts & Apparel,
where they stock a myriad of quirky items ranging from an 8-bit hair bow to the
Master’s pocket watch from Doctor Who. They recently started stocking Wonder
Woman and Batgirl nail art stickers, which I think is pretty cool.
Along with shipping, the total cost of your
buy may be on the pricier side, so you might have to choose between paying for
your computer finance or these
geektastic accessories. I’m sure you’ll make the right choice.
The Internet is a veritable treasure trove of
original accessories. Now that you know where to shop, you’ll never have to
suffer seeing another girl on the street wearing the same necklace as you
again. Happy shopping!
