In today's video, I'm sharing a couple of items I bought from www.matchesfashion.com back in April. However, the sale is still on so check them out for some great deals - sizes and styles are limited now, but you might be able to find something that suits your budget and your style.
I am also using this opportunity to talk about what happened to Matches back in March this year - and look at the overall projections for online luxury retail. I am not a financial or legal expert, so everything I say is just my own opinion as someone who shops luxury online.
Below are some of the main sources that I used for the video, please refer to these articles and videos for more information:
