I've been a member of vente-privee.com in France and in the UK and I can't praise them enough. They only downside is delivery times. Other than that there are some really really nice clothes and accesories on there for very good prices. Feel free to use me sarahnewcastle123@hotmail.com as your referrer if you want to have a look.

You almost feel privileged when you shop from an exclusive online store like this. That is actually a very good job of marketing from Ideeli. They will develop a loyal customer base with this method, even if they don't get a load of people overall to shop from them.</p> I like stuff like this.
