Show Your Love!

'Loving' items sends them to the top of  product lists - nice!

This Marketplace is your Marketplace, so we thought we’d take a brief moment to remind you of the power of your loving. Let us explain.

Marketplace is a place for style inspiration, as well as straight up buying, so we wanted to create a way for y’all to show what you love, without having to necessarily purchase an item. Within every item page, you will see a heart shaped ‘love button’. Simply click the heart to give the piece your style vote.

Here’s where the power play comes in. Items within Marketplace are ordered according to how many loves they have received. The most loved products will appear at the top of the page, whereas items without some lovin’ will be all the way at the bottom.

So, buyers and browsers, it’s time to feel the power! Get ready to wear your heart on someone else’s sleeve (or shoes, or skirt....) and give a little love. Sellers! Rally your troops; encourage them to ‘Love’ your looks. Internet maths dictates that products at the top of the page are more likely to find a loving home, so you’d be wise to start your own little love parade.

If you need a little help remembering, just look to the immortal words of Whitney Houston, for I, I will always love shoes.
