Fashion Chic: Chiconomise Launch

What chick wouldn’t like to save 80% on Prada, Marc Jacobs and Chloe this season? What about up to 90% off pampering? Or a £60 shopping voucher for just a tenner. Me, me and more me!

Apprentice winner Michelle Dewberry along with her business partner Vicky Zadeh, are set to launch their new business www.chiconomise.com , the one-stop shop to save girls money on all the things we like –  fashion, beauty, lifestyle and home.

With so many sample sales, high street sales, online sales and private shopping clubs, it can all get a bit much and mind boggling!  With so much choice, saving money can be a full time job, and for Chiconomise that’s exactly what they do, they do the hard work for you.

They trawl through every private fashion shopping club, all the sample sales and the new online saving concepts that not enough of us girls know about. They weed out the ones with the catches and explain what the deal is with the others.  They even work with some fab boutique brands to offer their readers exclusive deals on items guaranteed to get people talking.  Perfect!

Three funky limited edition iPhone cases by QDOS

Here at girlgeekchic towers we are loving the new collection of stylish looking slip cases from QDOS.

The Quilted slip

For the iPhone, the quilted case is ideal for the fashion conscious iPhone owner, it feels very Chanel stylee, we like. It offers a slim tight fit for minimum bulk in the pocket. Made with a patent leather finish, this case uses a pull-tab system to provide quick and easy access to the iPhone.

The Cashmere mix sock

For iPhone & iPod Touch, this is a slim fitting, hand finished protective case. It is made from a cashmere-mix cable knit and comes in a single pack of three colours; cream, grey and black. The Cashmere mix knit feels so nice and will easily fit into any pocket or bag and still provide protection against bumps, knocks and dust.

The Ski slip case

For iPhone & iPod Touch and made from hand finished natural sheepskin, this case is just SO cute and fluffy, like a sheepskin mitten for your beloved iPhone. It also offers protection from scratches and scuffs in the pocket.

Cases from £19.99 available at  www.qdossound.com
