It seems the internet is continuing to conquer every aspect of our lives -communication, music, money management and even recreational shopping. Despite a struggling economy, last week's Cyber Monday generated $733 million in sales according to ComScore Inc., up a whopping 21 percent from the same day last year. Online apparel shopping sites seem to be popping up by the minute, encouraging online purchases with elite designers, exclusive sales and free shipping. To help with the search for whatever it may be you're looking for, here's a guide to the best of the best online shopping sites.

Bluefly.com

Bluefly is slowly becoming a household name thanks to its infamous and awkward advertisements depicting a woman with literally "nothing to wear" going about her daily business. Now, as a new affiliate of Bravo's ultra popular Project Runway, Bluefly's popularity is sure to grow even more. Self-proclaimed to be "the ultimate hook-up for the fashion obsessed," Bluefly offers designer names and styles at great prices, frequently marked at 50 percent off. Featuring shoes, apparel and accessories one can shop by style, designer, price or trend.

Designerexposure.com

For the high-end girls out there, Designer Exposure features top designers including Miu Miu, Christian Dior, Balenciaga and Marc Jacobs, frequently discounted a considerable amount. Shoes, handbags, apparel, evening wear, accessories any other piece other clothing imaginable is available, and the site tends to feature classic looks rather than ultra-trendy styles. However, that may actually be a good thing - if you're paying designer prices, you might as well get longevity out of the pieces.

Endless.com

Despite its busy, fairly overwhelming design, the biggest appeal and goal of Zappos is quick delivery -overnight shipping is free, essentially cutting out all the hassle of shopping online.
