Strutting onto the e-scene last September, Apartstyle.com offers a one-of-a-kind shopping experience that combines the chic cheer of social shopping with the nonmandatory sweatpants of ordering online. Apartstyle.com's Shop 2gether platform allows fashionistas to hook up with their friends via email or social-networking profiles. Using the Shop 2gether instant-messaging chat program, teams of outfit hunters can browse departments such as piping-hot new arrivals or dyed-in-the-wool cardigans, "hearting" items to give subtle clues to computer compatriots or establishing e-petitions against parachute pants. Stitch together an elegant ensemble with a lovely loose slate sweater ($118), baby-soft draped silk pants ($120), and a breezy diamond-blazoned chiffon caftan ($165). Muse-seeking moxie makers may wish to gander at the Look Book, which lays out internationally inspired style stews to emulate or use when catalyzing new clothing combinations.
