become.com

i was recently contacted by the lovely Michele from Become.com with regards to doing a review of my blog. i was flattered that she picked Animated Confessions for this. you can view the feature here.

to be honest, i've never heard of Become.com until she contacted me through email regarding the site. upon receiving more information, i tried to look into the site and see what it has to offer. basically, Become.com is a search engine specifically tailored for product search and comparison shopping. it may look and function like other search engines, but what i really loved about the site is that it clearly states the prices of the products in your initial search. being an onlooker for sales and deals, this is definitely a big plus for me. another thing i found pretty neat is that they have this local shopping feature that tells you the nearest store within your area that sells that product you are searching for.

i got a little bit confused with where my feature was located. if you will read it here, you'll see that it directs you to Pocket Change. upon closer exploration, i found out that pocket change is the blog site for become.com. Basically, if they see something interesting out there in the market, they blog about it and even refer you to search results in their site. Their blog material is not limited to clothing alone since it covers all products from electronics to services to art and collectibles. that's for anyone out there reading this blog who just randomly stumbled upon it and has got no concern over fashion whatsoever. haha!

so if you're currently looking for a summer straw hat or a new camera or probably some furniture for your place, try become.com and tell me what you think.

Great outfit, I have a lace skirt in that colour and I might try pairing it with a shirt, perhaps chambray. Hadn't thought of that before so thanks for the inspiration!

oohh.. i thought of pairing my chambray shirt with the lace skirt too, but it's currently in the laundry so that look will have to wait. i recently got a clothes swap package from jasmine and i might have to try pairing this lace skirt with the tops she gave me. and speaking of the swap, jen recently styled the scarf i gave her for the clothes swap. you can check it out in her blog.
