Victoria's Secret Revealed

The Aussie dollar is still doing well in the USA, so now is the perfect time to buy online. Especially in the USA. I have two favorites that I frequent. One is Tiffany, as I am huge Tiffany fan! (hint, hint people you know what to buy me) And the other is Victoria's Secret.

I first started buying Victoria's Secret online a few years ago and usually make two purchases online a year. I know the brand is well known for its hot models and you maybe thinking 'I can't wear that' but believe me, there is something there for everyone! (well except for him) The first thing I always check out is the Sale & Specials page, this page alone is worth the look! Sales Galore! My pick of the sales items are always the bikinis and the pajamas. If you are worried about sizing, then there are a few options, they do have a size converter on the website or if you are still unsure, buy only from the sales items to test for sizing. This way if the size is not right, then you can give it away as a gift or sell it on eBay. Or simply you can return the item to Victoria's Secret. The returns process is easy and relatively quick, considering it is from the states.

Some of the other items to look at are, the beauty products, the body lotions are great, the lip gloss is fantastic and you can usually score some other cool items. Not to mention the SHOES! Welcome to shoe heaven! Some of the shoes are super funky and if you are after something a little different to what you're finding in your local shops, then this is where you will find a little unique gem. The clothes are also great, the sizing pretty spot on and the quality is really good.

Victoria's Secret also has some great offers and promotions, so be sure to join their mailing list so you are privy to all the deals. Buy one, get one free or discounts on future purchases are just a few they have online at one time or another. They really have their finger on the pulse.

One thing you will have to be mindful of is the delivery fee to Australia. I have never seen this reduced or discounted and frankly I like it this way. I would rather the fast & effective delivery of my items remain the same and not be compromised by any discounts or deals they cut with their delivery companies. If you are onto a good thing - then stick to it! I once received my items in less then a week! Remember in peak times it may take a little longer. So in order to make the most of the delivery fee, hook up with a girlfriend and order together! Even if you add the delivery fee onto the total amount of spend and then divide it by the number of items, you will still come out on top! So you may not be concerned about sharing your order & delivery fee. I usually just order by myself - I still make sure that I am getting a bargain. What good shopper doesn't?

I am an advocate for 'shop locally' and support the local economy however when it comes to fashion and getting a bargain - there is no shame in being resourceful and seeking out items from overseas, especially if fits your budget and you are getting something unique. And what better way then to do it from the comfort of your home or office! Score!

I hope you find this useful, as I said, Victoria's Secret usually conjures up images of hot sexy models so don't be put off by the branding and images, the store has a great variety of items and sizes and the online experience with them can be a whole lot of fun! Happy Bargain Hunting!
