It doesn’t matter the reason, it will come a time you will think about buying clothes through e-commerces.Â
However, even though it might be pretty easy to navigate the showcases on the websites, this task demands a little bit more attention. So, if you don’t wanna make any mistake, we prepared some awesome tips. Check them out!
- Verify all the information regarding the products

One of the most important things to know before online shopping is the measures of the available sizes. Even though there will always be a size spreadsheet, not every producer will have the same way to display the information the same way.
To nail it, a great tip is to measure your size in centimeters! The width of your shoulders, bust, waist and even of the foot. It might be very useful so you won’t have to worry replacing pieces for other sizes, which might fit you better. Beyond it, see which size the model on the pictures is wearing, so you will know how it fits the body, and never, EVER, buy something that is not your size! Â
It is also important to check some other information, such as the fabric, available colors and details. To know everything you can before you shop might avoid a lot of disappointments when your order arrives.
- Know from where you’re buying and how you’re going to pay for it

Do not buy anuthing from a store you do not know. To make sure it is a trustable place, verify if there is any fixed address, since when it is in the market and also look for reviews from other clients on social media. It is also important to read the terms and conditions of every website, so you’ll know if, as a consumer, you’ll be safe.
If everything is fine and you want to check out, it is time to figure out which is the best payment method for you! Online shopping can be a blessing, but only while your credit card invoice doesn’t arrive at your mail. Thinking about it, make sure the shopping will be worth and consider how much the shipping costs, the included taxes, duty rates (if you’re buying internationally) and if you won’t put yourself in debt to pay the pieces.Â
Also, there are a lot of websites that offer discout cuppons and even return a part of your money. It is always good to pay less, if possible, right?
- Be aware of shipping and exchange deadlines

The payment was confirmed? Then it is time to wait until your new clothes arrive at home. Some websites, mainly the international ones, will take some time to deliver your stuff. To stop the anxiety and to always be aware of the deadlines, there are apps that track your order. They can be useful and helpful in order to avoid problems.Â
When your pieces arrive, enjoy it! Try them all and play with the possibilities to know if you made the right call. But it want to exchange it, be quick! The Brazilian Consumer Code gives us 7 days to ask for refundment, and some stores allow you to change your order in 30 days.
