Hello mes petits chats, Aujourd'hui j'avais envie de papoter avec vous d'une Nouvelle Application : AskAnna !

J'adore les applications, et encore plus quand les créateurs de l'App nous intègrent à leur projet ... Ils sont supers disponibles et adorables... Pour la petite histoire, je suis super indécise. Ce n'est pas facile au quotidien, mais c'est comme ça ! Je me pose toujours une multitudes de questions, pour tout et n'importe quoi, mais surtout n'importe quoi.

Alors quand Marion de l'App m'a contactée pour me parler du projet, j'ai été totalement conquise... Puis l'application est sortie mi-juin ( oui oui il y a quelques jours ) et là, c'était carrément TOP ! L'application consiste à poster une photo de nous/ d'une tenue / d'un vêtement et d'attendre l'avis des utilisateurs de l'appli ! Par exemple, ici j'attends les avis sur un de mes looks du blog ! On peut demander l'avis de toute la communauté, ou demander seulement aux personnes que l'on nomment " STYLISTES " Bisous d'amour ♥ Mademoiselle Jude: AskAnna, mon appli coup de coeur ! AskAnna, l’assistant mode d’un nouveau genre. Aujourd’hui, nous vous faisons découvrir les coulisses de l’application AskAnna, une app précieuse pour les fashion victimes. AskAnna vous évite les fashion faux-pas, en vous donnant son avis sur votre tenue vestimentaire. Voici notre entretien avec Vincent Deloffre, co-fondateur de AskAnna, qui nous livre les secrets de son app.

Ce qui la rend unique ? Quand l’app a-t-elle été lancée ? L’app a été lancée sur l’App Store le 12 juin 2015. Comment monétisez-vous votre application ? La monétisation n’est pas notre priorité. Une fois ces étapes majeures passées, nous proposerons aux marques de nous rejoindre sur AskAnna.

Quel est le secret d’un bon référencement d’une app sur les stores ? How Polyvore Became a Trend-Setter in Social Shopping. This story first appeared in the June 2011 issue of Entrepreneur.

For that, you can thank companies like Polyvore, an online community whose members curate product images from all over the web to make digital fashion collages, called "sets," that can be shared on social networks like Facebook and Twitter. To encourage actual shopping, the sets link back to the original sites and include pricing when available.

Co-founders Pasha Sadri (CEO) and Jess Lee (VP of product) got their data mashup cred at Yahoo Pipes and Google Maps, respectively, and have created what is essentially a crowdsourced fashion magazine that reflects real-time trends. The idea for Polyvore first came to Sadri in early 2007, after he'd built a virtual mood board tool to help with a house redesign project. The Mountain View, Calif. An eye for fashion: Here's the winner from the Seattle Angel Conference. Six entrepreneurs presented their ideas at the Seattle Angel Conference on Wednesday afternoon in hot pursuit of one very big check. And while each of the entrepreneurs offered compelling pitches to the crowd of more than 150, only one had the style and finesse to woo the judges. Glamhive, a two-year-old Seattle startup which rewards fashionistas with gift cards for sharing their favorite outfits online, took home the top prize and the $205,000 check Fashion is certainly moving online, and as one of the judges cleverly noted, the founders possess a “passion for fashion.”

Co-founder Stephanie Sprangers started her talk by noting that 3,000 photos are shared every hour on Instagram with the hashtag Outfitoftheday. That’s where Glamhive, which employs nine people and is looking to raise $1.2 million, steps in. It allows fashionistas to browse and shop for various styles, and then get rewarded for participating in the network. Glamhive - The Fashionable Wife. Happy Friday all! Today I am excited to tell you about a really awesome fashion website + app! It is called Glamhive – think of it kind of like a shoppable Instagram. And I am sharing a little Q&A I did with Stephanie, co-founder of Glamhive! What is Glamhive?

We describe Glamhive as a ‘shoppable’ Instagram. People who post on Glamhive match product to their outfits so their followers can easily buy the things that they see + love. What can you find? Almost everything! People can shop by look or use our search to find products from their favorite retailers and brands. What will users find on GH that they won’t find anywhere else? Two big things: 1. all photos are shoppable – companies similar to GH are a hit and miss on this. 2. rewards – again, no other site or app offers rewards to the people who create content and people who shop.

The truth is, anytime anyone hashtags a brand or gives a retailer a social media shout out, they are helping to drive awareness and sales for that brand.
