SheFinds: The Best Fashions & More

You’re busy – we know, we know. The busy career woman doesn’t have time to shop. She doesn’t even have time to browse the web much less paw through endless piles of cashmere sweaters at the mall. But she still wants to look good and stay on top of the trends.

Relax. Our fashion blog and buying guides will help you figure out what to buy. We study the trends and surf the web for the best items, then pass on the info in newsletters and our blog. We even find online coupon codes and great sales – all you have to do is click. SheFinds doesn’t carry any inventory, so we don’t push anything we wouldn’t wear.

1. Help: I subscribed, but I don’t receive the SheFinds Newsletter!

In addition to sending RSS feeds of our fashion blog, we also send weekly newsletters. If you no longer receive SheFinds.com’s weekly newsletter, it is probably being blocked by your company or your ISP spam filter.  Don’t despair! There are a few solutions:

1. Ask your company or internet provider’s administrator to always accept email messages from ‘hello@shefinds.com’. Also, ask them if they keep a ’spam’ folder for your account which may contain our newsletter. In this folder, you can usually indicate which senders’ e-mails you’d like to receive.

2. Add ‘hello@shefinds.com’ to the personal address list or friends list in your email program.

17. What are your editorial policies?

At SheFinds media, we only write good reviews about stuff we like.

Our shopaholic writers and editors find products through a bunch of different avenues: by browsing the web, walking around our favorite stores, attending press events, sorting through solicited and unsolicited product samples, actually buying stuff, and any other way we can.

Accepting free products
We do accept samples from brands and PR firms – sometimes we ask for a specific product, and sometimes samples are entirely unsolicited. If we try and like the product, we’ll write about it, but we don’t guarantee coverage in exchange for products. If you want to know when we’re looking for products for a particular feature, sign up for our presslist and we’ll e-mail you.

Sponsored content
You’ll see sponsored content and sweepstakes on many areas of the site; this is the only way to guarantee coverage. All sponsored content is labeled as such. We don’t give positive first-person reviews – even in sponsored posts – if they don’t reflect our actual experiences with the product. Content that is not labeled as sponsored or as a Freebie Friday has not been paid for.

For details about sponsorship opportunities and pricing, click here.

A word about affiliate links
Many of the links to products we feature are affiliate and pay-per-click links; if a reader clicks through or clicks through and buys something, SheFinds shares in the revenue. We do not choose products based upon whether they are sold by a retailer in our affiliate/PPC network. Instead, our writers choose what products they want to feature independently, and editors add affiliate links later if the products are available at one of the retailers in our affiliate network. If the product is not available at an affiliate, we don’t make money from the link.

If you have any questions about our policies, please feel free to contact sfeditor@shefinds.com.
