Yeah ok so I know it’s only 5 but that’s because the quality of online stores is either really good, really poor or they don’t ship to Australia. Here are the best ones I’ve found.

Australia
Shopping online from stores based in Aust. means you get your stuff quicker for cheaper. On the downside, overseas fashion is a bit outdated and the range isn’t nearly as extensive as it is from overseas retailers.

About a Girl

So I’ve talked about this online store when I introduced minkpink – and here we are again. It’s made my top for Australian stores because it’s affordable, stocks a variety of labels (yeah they’ve expanded their range) and you get discount codes every now and then in addition to the great sales they have.
About a Girl stock Minkpink, sunnygirl, kid and kaboodle, and gingham and heels among others.

Freez

Don’t be put off by the boring brown theme of this online store – Freez is brilliant. Stocking minkpink, french kitty, sunnygirl, ladakh, pinkstitch, and junk among others, they have a massive sale section with awesome pieces falling to prices of $30 and under. Everything is reasonably priced. (watch out, their bandwidth got exceeded recently!)

Mint

Mint is a bit more expensive than the other two (and their site’s a bit dodge) which is why it’s at the bottom of my australian places to shop online. However they do have a much more extensive range featuring premium brands such as Something Else, MyPetsQuare, cheap monday, sass & bide, and Ksubi (among others that I won’t even pretend to know).

International
Buying from international stores may be a little more expensive (we’re talking america here so there’s the exchange rate to factor in + shipping) and might take a little more time, but these two online stores have a massive range.

80′s Purple

So much stuff!! 80′s Purple caters to a range of shoppers, so there are a variety of styles and prices. A lot of the stuff is really cool and also affordable. Brands stocked include insight, ed hardy, melissa shoes, salvage, cheap monday, disney couture, industry among many, many more. Seriously, that’s like 1/50th of the brands they stock. And the sale section is 20 pages long. Go have a look

Revolve Clothing

Again, here is a store that stocks a massive amount of brands and so has a lot of choice. The sale section is huge and the rest of the store is even bigger. Brands include Zimmerman, Vivien Westwood, Something, Something Else, Nixon, Minkpink, Ksubi, Insight, Juicy Couture and so on.
