ShopSimple, What Global Fashion Shoppers Need to Know

HONG KONG, Sept. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- ShopSimple - a combination of the words 'Shop and Simple,' has devoted itself to offering the easiest and most convenient shopping experience by connecting shoppers with retailers from around the world. ShopSimple is a social network for online shopping fashionistas, combining online shopping with inspiration. So, how does ShopSimple work? Shoppers upload images of products they find from retailers, such as things the shopper is looking to buy, or just possible future purchases. Members are able to follow other users, brands or shops and collect their favorite items by "saving" them in their collections which the shopper can customize and look at, at any time, other users can also look at your collections and comment on them, "love" them and share them for their own purchase or to add to their own collections!
