Shopping online can mean wading through endless Google search results for basics like fanny packs, chunky sneakers, and/or jeans. The best part is that it’s easy to find the best deals as websites like Raise offer great coupon codes.


I started a search for ‘clothes for women,’ and I started with Amazon ,because they don’t have a women’s section, and because it was easy to search for things I already had in my wardrobe.

I’d love to share a few of my picks, but I figured I’d do a roundup instead.
