Unleash your inner fashionista with eBay

Is fashion your passion? Do you love bags, accessories, and quirky finds like vintage dresses? Do designer shoes make you drool?

Then you should try eBay. One of the top shopping categories in the world’s largest online marketplace is Clothing, Shoes and Accessories. eBay offers a convenient one-stop shopping haven that will fulfill all your shopping needs. You can find almost anything on eBay as there are more than 112 million listings to browse through at any given time.

You can also convert your unused clothing and extra gift items to cash by setting up a business on eBay. With over 84 million active users worldwide and a global presence in 40 markets, eBay is the only global online marketplace that gives Filipinos boundless opportunities to buy from and sell to the world. Not only can you earn additional income, you can also clear out that burgeoning closet to make space for other fashion must-haves.

eBay.ph style ambassador Jolina Magdangal, an inveterate shopper, found some great fashion steals recently on eBay. This seasoned fashionista fell in love with a fuchsia and dark grey striped Lacoste bag, Ray-ban aviator shades, a black vinyl Victoria’s Secret luggage, two vintage necklaces, a crocheted bonnet, and a very rare Adidas Superstar key chain.

“I love the Adidas Superstar key chain best because it’s cute and whimsical. It’s got a pair of Adidas shoes that are absolute replicas of the real thing — you can almost wear them. It reminds me of the active life I lead and I get a fresh energy boost just by looking at it,” says Jolina. “It cost only P120! You don’t need to have a lot of money to indulge your fashion needs because there are so many bargains to be found on eBay.”

Jolina shares the following tips when shopping online for fashion items:

• Stick to the basics. A good collection of casual essentials, like well-cut shirts and jeans, will take you far.

• Mix and match. Combine separates for differrent occasions for more fashion mileage from your garments.

• Accessorize. The right accessories can make a casual outfit more formal.

• Bright is beautiful. Bold colors flatter Asian skin tones.

• Be extraordinary. Experiment with new looks, show off a different side of your character.

• Don’t forget comfort. True fashion sense means looking good while going about your day.

• Fashion is not only about designer labels. You can easily find great fashion deals on eBay and bargain stores.

• Develop your own style. Fashion trends don’t last. It’s your personal style that will stay with you for a long time.
