Zappos Launches Catalogue

I would like to think that Zappos is one of the more successful online shopping sites in existence. But even with this success, the company has come up with an old school idea for marketing by mailing out catalogues. The company has planned to send some 750,00 copies of this, according to the New York Times article.

Screen shot 2009-12-09 at 4.55.12 AM

In these times when printed materials are slowly losing ground over the internet, this idea is actually quite refreshing. It’s also very clever as more people will be pushed to shop at Zappos online as a result of this. Zappos’ marketing, Aaron Magness, knows its target market so well when he said, “Different people respond to different media.”

The catalogue features collections by Cole Haan, Guess, Calvin Klein, Lucky, Stila, True Religion and Stuart Weitzman.

And you can actually see the contents online, too via Digital Zappos.

Like every good award show the fashion lovers devoured everything seen on the red carpet to inside the hall itself. Starting with Laina Pop Princess Shakira who wore a fabulous classic black dress with Knee high boots, simple and popular. Former Black eyed pees singer Fergie had a similar look going on, with a sparkly number similar to Shakira yet longer and possibly even more stylish, to good lucks which is an easy trend to follow.

Glitzy and stylish seemed to be the look of the night from Rhianna’s experimental lazer cut Marchesa to Kristen Bell simple cota skirt and top. Many appeared as if they where heading to a ball or a new years eve party from all the glitz and glamour going on.

However it showed that the colors for Christmas and new year seem to be black which is always in and possibly silver, these two where widely used on show last night and seemed to go down well in most peoples eyes so there you have it. The colors for this season and style giving to you first from the red carpet at the American Music awards, congratulations to the winners of the awards but most importantly of fashion!
