Today Google launched Boutiques.com, a personalized online fashion shop. The site allows users to search and discover fab pieces tailored to fit your personal preferences.
So imagine my joy when I realized I could create my own boutique! I couldn't wait to get home and try it.
But just like a normal shopping day I was left disappointed and no bags to tote home. The site does offer tons of styles in clothing, shoes, and accessories - mainly for the slim body with a thick wallet. Unfortunately for me its the other way around. I spent an hour fishing through my boutique looking for that uber fab piece or at least that fab find. Nothing impressive and nothing I couldn't have found on my own.
I suppose it is good that all of your favorite brands (and some new ones) are all on one site. But once you select your item of choice you are redirected to the actual site where the item can be purchased. Google does have plans to expand by offering menswear. I pray they realize that a large percentage of consumers are over size 12 and are not paying $2,000 for a dress.
I am still very optimistic because I love the concept. What an amazing way to house all of my online shopping? Dontcha think!
Create your own boutique (after you follow mine) and let me know if you love or hate it.
