WEBSITE: Once Upon A Win

Once Upon A Win is the anti-Failblog. Instead of pointing out things that are epically wrong, this site celebrates the great victories of times gone by. All those things you thought were "rad" back in the day, still are, you just can't get them anymore. Adult footie pajamas, Umbro shorts, 70's coloured Tupperware, and Tamagotchi's are all here for your reminiscing pleasure. The absolute most fantastic part of this site though, with out a doubt, is "80's Music Video Thursday" where the likes of Belinda Carlisle, Salt N Pepa, and The Fixx come back to their aquanetted, stirruped pants wearing, paint-splattered jean jacket glory!

APPAREL: Mod Cloth

Its a good thing that ModCloth is not an actual physical store because I would be there all the time. This online women's clothing, shoes, and accessories shop is one of a kind and very stylish if you're in to modern clothes with a non-thrift store retro vibe.

The site is super easy to navigate and they even have a special "Twelvsies Tuesdays" where you can buy twelve items and receive 12% off the total. There is also a mod fashion blog and a pretty cool "Be the Buyer" feature where we, the shoppers, can have our say in what designs make it into the store by voting for samples that you like!

I bought a pair of wedge sandals and a dress for my day to day grind at the office when I want to look super cute. (These were not to be worn together, mind you; I've got more sense than that!) I got both items in a timely manner and I can definitely say a chunk of my next paycheck will be going to this fabulous company come pay day!
