Calling all shopaholics!

5 Must-Have Shopping Apps
Fashionista.com

If you are anything like me, you love a good buy. I am an online shopaholic and it's only gotten worse since I've been at college. I have found five apps that all online shopaholics who love cute clothes should get.

1. ThredUP

This is a fairly new app that I found advertised on Facebook. I was a little skeptical but decided to give it a shot. I am in love with this app. It's a secondhand store that sells expensive brands and designer clothing (Altar'd State, Free People, Victoria's Secret, Marc Jacobs, etc.). The best part of all of this is that it's sold cheaper on ThredUP than priced in stores. For example, there was a Rebecca Taylor dress originally priced for $350, but on Thredup, it was only $61! Your first purchase can give you up to 80 percent off. You can also send in your clothes to ThreadUP and make some $$ off of your old clothes. This is definitely a must have!!

2. Wanelo

This is by far one of my favorite apps on my phone. On Wanelo, you can shop for pretty much anything that you want, need and love. It's similar to Pinterest where you can save items. I've made a couple of purchases on this app, and I am in love with everything I've bought so far (*knock on wood*). Some items can be really cheap and others not so much. The cool thing is that you can review the item or see how others rated the product to see if you'd like to purchase it.

3. Etsy

Etsy has a lot of crafty items on their website. There are over 1,000 people who make neat and one-of-a-kind items that might not be found in a store. This website is great if you're looking to buy a gift for someone or looking to decorate a home. People handcraft costumes, socks, car decal stickers, clothes, signs and so much more. Basically, anything you can think of, Etsy has got it! I've purchased from Etsy a lot and love everything that I've bought. You won't be disappointed with this website!

4. Poshmark

I've recently just downloaded this app, but I've heard a lot of great reviews about it. It's basically just like ThredUp. On this app, you can sell your brand items and shop other people's gently used products.

5. Polyvore

I also recently downloaded this app, but so far I love it. You can buy brand items cheaper and you can also save different outfits, and mix and match them to style your own outfit. I can't wait to learn more about this app.

Try out these apps and let me know which one you like the best!

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
