Rhetoric in Lulus.com


        Lulu’s is a fashion website that takes designer brands and discounts them to the public. When you first get to the website, the colors are soothing and relaxing, making the shopping experience a stress-free time and a way to relax. Likewise, with the colors of the website, a pale blue and white, the letters of the name of the website, Lulu’s stands out as it is in bright pink, letting customers know where they are shopping the entire time. There are several advertisements that stand out as well, in the same hot pink color of the website; for example: “Win Dresses for a Year!” and “Perfect Looks for Special Occasions” that make the customer want to look into the details and start shopping, so it is a way to draw people in. Also, there is a sign that says “Free Shipping and Free Returns” in bold and hot pink, that draws customers in and takes away many concerns that a potential customer could have about shopping. Shopping online leads to many concerns like whether or not the clothes are going to fit, how much money it is to ship and can anything be returned, and when the website puts it out in bold that there is free shipping and free returns, it makes shopping easier and stress free.
            All of the models on the website modeling the clothes are pretty and skinny, giving the assumption that you will be skinny and pretty if you buy these clothes. All of the clothes fit the models well and give many styles and options, so it is easier for customers to see how it looks on people and the different ways they can make it their own as well. Also on the website, there is a page dedicated to finding ways to contact them, so if there are any troubles in shopping, they can be addressed and worked out easily, giving customers a sense of reassurance. There is also a portion dedicated to different social medias, establishing that the website is popular and has a following on instagram, Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest, so there are many sources to access the website from, and that it is popular enough to be shopping at. These advances demonstrate the technological advances of the website and make it easy to navigate to do whatever you want to while shopping on it. Lulu’s.com is a easily accessible, popular website that customers would have a relaxing time navigating in, making the creators of it successful because it draws customers in and keeps them hooked.
