I love Nordies..... they are pricier but I think their shipping is only $8 (free if you spend over $200) and they have such a great return policy. http://shop.nordstrom.com

After that it depends what I am looking for but some other websites I have used are:
http://www.bluefly.com/
http://www.espritshop.com/
http://www.us.redoute.com/
and someone else mentioned this one:
http://www.bodenusa.com/

I stumbled upon this website recently http://www.glimpse.com .... you plug in what you are looking for and it trawls lots of clothing websites. I didn't find it very user friendly but it was useful to draw attention to clothes sites I hadn't heard of before.

Phew. That was a lot ....and I hate shopping!
Just had a quick look, i think that they look brilliant so far!

I cannot believe the shallowness of the posters on this thread!!!

In all areas of our lives, we should try to live godly. Let us especially be circumspect in our attire. The virtuous woman covers herself. And her husband praises her.

Probably the latter or he'd have a heart attack!

Then there's the HOA to consider....might be worth it after all.

We get a lot of casual/surfwear whch is much cheaper than England - especially at the outlet stores. PacSun and Hollister are good for that, although Hollister and Abercrobie have tiny sizes. H & M opened up recently. I like Urban Outfitters, and Anthropologie if I can get somethng in the sales. In fact we're really spoilt for shoppng in this area.
