Pocket pixie picks out the fashion bargains
Serious shoppers searching for that elusive 'must-have' summer outfit have a new 'tool' at their disposal.
Online alert service for bargain hunters, TheFashionPixie.com, has launched an iPhone App, making it easier for users to find the best retail deals while on the move.

Based in Harrogate, but with 'Pixies' located throughout the UK, the site gathers information about discounts and sales from virtually every national retailer, fashion website and high street shop, and posts the deals on one website, that is updated several times each day.
Overwhelmed

Clothes lover Nicole, of Harrogate, launched the website – the first devoted exclusively to women's clothes, shoes and accessories – after her own frustrating experiences in the sales.

She had subscribed to dozens of retailer's online websites only to be completely overwhelmed by the number of emails she received.
Thousands of women have signed up to use the free website and receive the twice weekly email alert service since it was launched last December.
The iPhone App is now available to download free from iTunes and mirrors the live sales information that is published on the website.
"The App allows you to see where the best high street bargains are, even while out shopping, and that means you can go straight to the stores that have the best deals that day and grab the best pieces, before they're snapped up," said Fiona Kendall of TheFashionPixie.com.
