Unreal360.com posted an article of ShopitUPchic.com’s Press Release and its 219 West Fashion Charity Event!
http://www.unreal360.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=147:shopitupchiccom&catid=45:fashion&Itemid=53
SHOPITUPCHIC.COM BURSTS ONTO SCENE WITH ONE-OF-A-KIND FASHION EXPERIENCE
Online retailer offers a unique spin to buying online
This month: the new kid in the online retail community.
Shopitupchic.com provides the perfect answer to the question of affordable chic.
Creators Christin Chan and Katie Camacho, both former footwear buyers of famous online shoe retailer Zappos.com, came up with the idea for the website in Las Vegas. The company is currently headquartered in both Las Vegas and Austin and focuses on making available unique contemporary designs, both domestic and international, at affordable prices. Offering well known brands like Hazel, Shopitupchic.com gives the customer a unique fashion experience by also “thinking outside the box.”
“We are inspired by different cultures from around the world. For instance, we carry the brand Runway, which comes from Australia. This gives our customers a wide spectrum of different available options,” says co-owner Christin Chan.
While creativity and fashion are in many ways inextricably links, when it comes to affordability and quality, the options become limited. The founders of Shopitupchic.com created their website to change this norm by providing an affordable place to shop, a place where it is possible to buy that cute little cocktail dress while still having enough left over for that night on the town during which to wear it—a way of giving fashion back to the masses without breaking their banks, in other words.
“Women love fashion, and when we can’t afford quality, it can also be one of our biggest heartbreaks. We wanted to change that, and those women are the inspiration for Shopitupchic.com,” remarked co-owner Christin Chan
However, for those with strong fashion senses but even tighter budgets than usual, Shopitupchic.com provides them an alternative means of access to their fashions. With the launch of the rental portion of their site, the founders are now able to continue to uphold their promise of providing affordable fashions to everyone. Members get the choice of three levels of membership, each of which allows them to borrow a certain number of outfits each month. With no contract involved and no required commitment to buy, the rental aspect of the site allows women to enjoy fashion even if they cannot buy a closet full of clothes.
“We want everyone to enjoy what we offer; we want to give women what they love: clothes,” states co-owner Katie Camacho.
CHECK OUT SHOPITUPCHIC.COM’S FASHION FOR A CAUSE CHARITY EVENT TONIGHT!

Enjoy a Night of Shopping Out With the Girls
The realization that “girls just want to have fun” was not an epiphany created by Cyndi Lauper in the 1980’s. No, we’ve all been aware of this for as long as we can remember; and it seems like now more than ever women are finding new and innovative ways to let the good times roll.
Shecky’s, an online and event company, has gotten in on the action, making it their mission to be the expert in what’s hip and cool in fashion, beauty and fun with the girls. They have created parties in eleven cities around the country called “Shecky’s Girls Night Out,” designed to create a relaxing atmosphere of shopping, beauty treatments, cocktails, beer and food pairings and much more.
Girlfriend groups around the country can peruse current trends from over thirty-seven fashion retailers, visit beauty vendors for the latest fall-fabulous treatments and receive one of Shecky’s free goodie bags, worth over $125.
ShopitUPchic.com, an online women’s apparel retailer, will be one of the many fashion vendors at the Houston and Atlanta event. The owners, being women themselves, also believe in quality girl time and will be offering their many selections of contemporary styles from domestic and international designers to event attendees.
So if you live in or near Houston or Atlanta and need a place to escape and hang out with the girls, join ShopitUpchic.com at Shecky’s Girls Night Out!

Check out Gossip Secretaries’ newest blog about our rental closet by Jenny!
http://www.gossipsecretaries.com/blog/item/look_great_and_dress_for_less/
Today, I have an unusual clothing tip. I heard about this website called Shop It Up Chic. The concept for this website is: if you see that outfit or dress that you absolutely cannot live without, and you absolutely cannot afford to buy right now, why buy? Why not rent it for a short time instead? Here is how it works. Shop It Up Chic has three levels of membership:
I Have to Have It. At this level, this item is to die for and you must have it immediately. Well, you can - for a small fee of $39.99 you can have that gorgeous little Donna Morgan black dress for as long as 20 days, and you can also get three other great outfits to go along with it as well.
I Need It. At this membership level, you can get the dress that you want to wear to that special occasion but was thinking of not buying because finances were a bit tight. Well, for $29.99 you can look absolutely fabulous and feel no pain in your wallet. Did I mention that you can keep it for 15 days and get two other pieces as well, all for the same price.
I Want It. This membership level allows you to just indulge yourself. Ladies, for $19.99 you can get that outfit just because you know you will look good in it. So go ahead have some fun, oh and by the way, you can pair it up with two other pieces as well, and you get to have them all for up to 10 days.
Ladies, wow! There is no contract binding you to a certain number of months, so you have great flexibility in how you make use of your membership. In addition to getting to wear the outfit you want at a great price, the girls at Shop It Up Chic have made it easy for you to ship your items back to them at no cost, and you also don’t have to worry about dry cleaning the items before returning them. Shop It Up Chic will take care of dry cleaning all returned garments. So what are you waiting for? You can have that great look for less, check out Shop It Up Chic.
