Hello, Monday! Are you ready for Monday? No? No!

Yas! Do not waste time. Enjoy every minute every day even if it's Monday.

Do you love the stuff online shops sell but are too afraid that it won't turn out exactly how you expected it to be? Or, are you always disappointed by the things you bought online? If your answer is YES to both questions, this post is for you *wink. 

Although I am not an expert on this topic, I just would like to share a few tips I have learned throughout the years of online shopping. 

1. If you are into fast fashion and is constantly looking for trendy and cheap clothing finds, then the online shopping world is for you. There are lots, and I mean LOTS of clothing choices that you can find online. Especially if you have a slim and petite built, most of the sellers online can offer you a wide variety of pretty clothing that will surely suit you. However, if you're like, otherwise, you should only shop at online stores that promise quality over the price so that you will not be sorry for the item you bought (e.g. Zalora). Yes, it might be pricier, but the quality is really worth it. 

2. If you are shopping for shoes, always ask the seller if they have an equivalent range of the sizes in terms of cm so that you can get your measurements right. Otherwise, ask them which international shoe size they had based their shoe sizes on (PH size is equivalent to EU size).

3. ALWAYS, ALWAYS READ THE REVIEWS. Reading reviews is a vital part of shopping successfully online. Since you can never touch or see the items personally, better based your judgment from the people who have purchased the same item as you, first. These reviews are written without bias to the seller which makes it a reliable source of information about the product.

4. Split the shipping cost. If your shopping extravaganza did not total to the minimum amount for you to get the free shipping, ask some friends if they are also interested in buying some things online so that all of you can save on the shipping fee (provided that they will purchase on the same online shopping platform or online seller).

5. Be updated on promos. Because, why not? Promos will give you great deals and if you are thinking of hoarding some things, it is better to do it while the items are on sale, right? Plus free shipping. Isn't that great???

So, there you have it. Those are my tips for you, guys. If you also have some online shopping secrets, you might want to spill some beans and share it with us, I would love to hear it. Happy shopping!!!
