I am usually less than impressed by Bluefly's emails: their recent habit of using "OMG!" as the headline of nearly every email leaves me unenthused. But let's give credit where credit is due: I love the clever copy going on in this email. Specifically, the bit where they call out the subscriber habit of reading fashion emails at work: "Go 'head & press play, the office is a ghost town!" Cheeky! It's my job to read emails, so I don't feel so rebellious for opening this, but I do appreciate a little wink-wink attitude on the part of Bluefly. To me, it shows that they really know their audience and are willing to go the extra mile to connect with their customers.
