How to Shop for Clothes Online Like a Pro: The Escala Way

Shopping for clothes online is both an art and a science. At Escala, we believe it’s about more than just scrolling through pages of items—it's about finding pieces that speak to you, reflect your individuality, and fit seamlessly into your life. But how do you navigate the endless sea of options without losing your sense of style? Here’s how to master the art of online shopping with a few insider tips from Escala.

1. Know Your Style, but Stay Open to Surprises

Before diving into any online store, it’s important to have a sense of your personal style. Are you a minimalist, a bold pattern lover, or somewhere in between? While knowing your style helps narrow down options, staying open to surprises can unlock new fashion frontiers.

Escala’s collections are designed to inspire and push creative boundaries. You might come for a simple tee but fall in love with a crochet top or an unexpected pattern. Trust the process and embrace exploration.

2. Pay Attention to Fabrics and Details

In an online world where you can’t physically touch the fabric or feel the fit, descriptions are key. Look for detailed product descriptions that break down the material, texture, and fit of each piece. At Escala, we pride ourselves on giving you the lowdown on the craftsmanship behind every garment. Is it hand-crocheted? Made from sustainably sourced cotton? Knowing these details helps you make informed decisions.

3. Size Up the Sizing

Nothing throws off an online shopping experience more than receiving clothes that don’t fit. Since sizing can vary from brand to brand, always check the sizing guide. At Escala, we provide a detailed fit guide for every item, whether it’s a flowy kimono or a structured shirt. Measure yourself to ensure a perfect fit and don’t be afraid to go up or down a size for the right look and feel.

4. Curate Your Closet with Versatile Pieces

When shopping online, think beyond the single outfit. Look for versatile pieces that can be mixed and matched to create multiple looks. Escala’s philosophy is rooted in timeless, wearable fashion. Our kimono scarf, for example, can be styled over a summer dress, paired with jeans, or even used as a chic cover-up. The key is to curate a wardrobe that not only speaks to your style but also allows room for creativity in how you wear each piece.

5. Rely on Reviews and Look for Transparency

Before hitting that ‘add to cart’ button, take a few minutes to read customer reviews, if available. This can give you an idea of how the product fits, how the fabric feels, and how true the colors are to the images. Transparency is a hallmark of brands that value customer trust. At Escala, we encourage open communication and feedback on every product, so you can feel confident in what you're buying.

6. Keep Sustainability in Mind

As the fashion industry evolves, sustainability is more important than ever. Shop from brands that are mindful of their environmental impact. Escala is deeply committed to sustainability, from responsibly sourced materials to ethical production practices. When you shop with us, you’re not just buying a garment—you’re investing in a better future for fashion.

7. Don’t Rush—Enjoy the Experience

Finally, online shopping shouldn’t be a chore. Think of it as an experience. Pour yourself a cup of coffee, sit back, and take your time scrolling through the collection. At Escala, we create pieces that aren’t just fashion-forward but are designed to resonate with you on a deeper level. Take a moment to connect with the stories behind our designs and let yourself enjoy the journey.
