This year two of my favourite websites Net-a-porter and ASOS turn 10. Both were launched at the tail end of the dot com boom, and both have completely revolutionised the way we shop. This is especially true for mothers. For the first time they could buy high end clothing or their high street counter parts at the click of a button. Then, even more miraculously, they were free to try them on in the peace of their own homes. No longer was the quest for stylish clothes ruined by the embarrassment of a little monster pulling down a whole rail of clothes at once, or smearing a chocolate covered hand over the most expensive garment in the shop. So we raise our glasses and celebrate ten years of glorious online shopping.
