Birdsnest!!! I can't praise them enough. I ordered something a Friday night, received it the Tuesday (and I'm in WA), beautifully wrapped, free reusable bag, and handwritten thank you note. Top notch brands and easy to use website - for instance you can search according to body shape and other functions.
Offtherunway - limited items, but heavily discounted. For instance i got my Siegerson Morrison boots $425 down to $197. Very good if you like high end designer peices.
Freez - Good for mid range designers, having a huge summer clearance at the moment, but i haven't bought from them yet.
Shoebox - for shoes, great range, some unique shoes you don't find in the general stores and members discounts.

NZNature for bamboo clothing (tees, undies, yoga pants, pjs). So many fabrics irritate my skin, but not bamboo. I've tried a few other bamboo brand clothing sites, but the sizing runs bigger on NZNature.
pros (of bamboo fabric)
- easy washing (cold water, delicates cycle), dries quickly
- trim, no bulkiness
- light to wear
- fabric give you sun protection
- no skin irritation
cons are:
small range of colours to choose from (no purple for example).
i have been impressed with the customer service i've received from this company, and i like that the postage is included. They have a toll free phone number too, very helpful in helping me with sizing choices.
Gigi have you tried Hemp clothing? Theres a fantastic shop here in WA and a bit further south WA that make and sell hemp clothes. I first went there just to buy the hemp fabric when i was making my own inserts for DS1's pocket nappies. I've since bougth some of their clothes and they are really durable. Its also surprisingly temperature neutral, i have a skirt which in summer isn't stifling, but a cardigan which in winter is really warm. Not sure if they have an online store though.
I havent ordered to much in the way of clothes for myself online yet but I plan to do a lot more in the future.. so also subscribing : )
I have used Peter Alexander too, as well as Zodee. I get a lot of sale notifaction emails (like Ozsale, Sales Guide, Missy Confidential etc) from companies but as yet havent brought anything.
I buy from Ebay quite a bit. It's easy to scale down your search to size, NWT or whatever.
Abercrombie & Fitch in the US as our dollar is great against theirs at the moment and they ship to Australia.
Zodee, Intimo.
It's been a while! You can shop Jeans West online now too.
The other thing I do is look through magazines like Marie Claire or Maddison and check out their shopping pages as they have all the web site address for the clothes and then go and check them out. Not all of them are expensive designers either.
Ozsale is another good one.
You can get Lorna Jane online now too.
