'Send the Trend' Brings Professional Style to Online Shopping

— July 26, 2011 — Pop Culture

Before signing up, the e-commerce site holds your hand through a quick survey meant to determine your tastes. Using your fashion palette as reference, Send the Trend offers five new designer accessories everyday at $30 each, with free shipping. Founded by Project Runway winner Christian Siriano, the website even allows users to connect their shopping list to Facebook or Twitter -- every time a friend or follower purchases something, you get an automatic $10 credit!

The recent launch and subsequent success of Send the Trend is largely indicative of a shift away from derivative or boring shopping websites. Interactivity and customization are absolutely key to retaining loyal customers in the online world!
