A few months ago, we wrote about one of our new favorite apps, called Piccing. The app was a simple yet brilliant concept– allowing the social media consumer to shop for clothing, accessories and other products in a steady stream of beautiful photos right from the app. Given the amount of social media we consume today and how visual our generation is, we were surprised it took so long for someone to create it!
Now, Piccing has transferred the same experience to its new website Piccing.com. The user experience is simple, create a free account or use the one from your app and then follow people that have similar interests be it shoes, vintage jewelry or home decor. Your photo stream will be populated by these people and others with a similar aesthetic, and when you see pieces that catch your eye, you can click on them to find the price, brand and even purchase them yourself.
I love that this app allows you to crowd source your fashion and other purchases. Before Piccing, I often found myself frustrated by trying hopelessly to find outfits that my favorite celebrities or bloggers posted on their Instagram accounts. In most cases, the searches were in vain, but this site solves that problem and has an easy and beautiful interface to boot. I especially like the website because you can view the photos a little larger than on a mobile device.
Let us know what you think. Happy Piccing!
