To start shopping on Fashion Nova and ship to Kenya, you will need to follow the steps below for an easy and smooth experience.

1. Create an account with Fashion Nova

Log on to www.fashionnova.com on your browser or Google search “Fashion Nova“.

Hover to the top right corner of the fashionnova.com website, on the human icon, and click on Sign Up.

You will be required to enter:

*your name
*email address and,
*desired password for your account.

You can also register by signing up through social accounts like Facebook or Gmail.

This is a good thing as it saves time and you don’t have to remember passwords for all accounts you have.

Tip: Opening an account first helps you save items in your shopping cart for future access in the event you’re not buying immediately. (window shopping)

Additionally, Fashion Nova may ask you to choose the type of marketing information based on the different style preferences available.

If you wish to receive updates on Discounts and Sales, New Stuff, Your Exclusives, or from Fashion Nova Partners, you can opt to get updates on your email account.

2. Scroll through the product category or search product via the search box

The next step is to find the desired item that you would like to buy.

You can do this by either browsing through the product categories on the menu bar, Shop By Category, or typing the item/product name on the search box.

For example, if you are looking to buy a dress, you will browse through the DRESSES category or simply search “dresses ” in the search box.

3. Use product filters to find your desired product match

Searching for your desired product through the product category or the search box can quickly become an overwhelming task, not to mention time-consuming, as you will be presented with many products or results.

We recommend using the product filter options to narrow down your search to find the best match based on the present options.

You can filter by size, price, type, style, material, color, or product specifications.

4. Select your desired product

Find the product from the filtered product results that meet your desired specifications.

5. Read through the product listing description, customer reviews, and seller feedback/product rating

It’s always a good idea to read through the product listing description provided by the seller to check if it meets your specifications/requirements and also to get general information about the product.

Pay attention to any special notes given by Fashion Nova in the listing, if the product is new, or used, package contents, size guide, or any other relevant information that may be important to help you make a good decision on your purchase.

Be sure to check what other customers say about the product or their experience with the seller online. A rating of 95% and above or a 4-star rating, demonstrates a fairly good product or service by Fashion Nova.

6. Buy your desired product

Once you are satisfied with the product reviews and all other relevant information provided by Fashion Nova, you can proceed to Add to Bag the item.

If you have several items that you want to buy, you can repeat the steps above to continue shopping on fashionnova.com and add more items to your shopping cart.

7. Enter your shipping address

Once you’re ready to place your order on Fashion Nova, you will begin the checkout process.

You will be required to enter your shipping address, that is, where you would like your package to be delivered.

To ship to Kenya from Fashion Nova, you can either ship to:

Our UK or USA address and use our package forwarding service, Vitu Za Majuu.com (best option)
Your Kenyan postal or home address (only if the seller ships to Kenya)

With our package forwarding service, we provide you with your own USA or UK address that use to ship your packages from Fashion Nova to Kenya.

Why use Vitu Za Majuu.com package forward service instead of shipping directly to your postal or home address?

Read on to see why delivery via post may not be your best option. I will tell you why in a bit.

8. Enter your payment details

Fashion Nova accepts several payment modes from major credit/debit cards from Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or PayPal.

Most Kenyan-issued debit cards from your local bank like Visa, and MasterCard will work.

If you wondering which card is the best to use, you can read our post on the best prepaid cards that you can use to shop online in Kenya.

Fashion Nova is a safe website to shop from, however, we do not recommend attaching your bank ATM Visa or MasterCard debit card.

Instead do consider getting a prepaid Visa or MasterCard debit card or using PayPal.

If you don’t have a PayPal account, learn how you can open a PayPal account in Kenya.

They have a money-back guarantee in case you have a problem in the event you don’t receive the item, has damage or it’s not as described by Fashion Nova. See their refund and returns policy.

See the photo below on how to correctly enter your debit card details or read how you can use prepaid card or bank ATM debit card to shop online.

9. Place your order

After you enter the required shipping and payment details, you will now be ready to place the order and make payment to Fashion Nova.

10. Order confirmation and delivery from Fashion Nova

If your payment is successful, Fashion Nova will confirm your order through a message on the screen and a copy to your registered email address. (the email address you used to open an account with).

Fashion Nova will prepare your order to ship to Kenya.

The processing time will vary with the size of your order and/or the availability of the items ordered.

But most of the time it takes about 1 – 3 working days for them to post your package as per their shipping policy.

Fashion Nova will also provide a tracking number for you to follow the journey of your package depending on the shipping option selected.

A notification is normally sent to your email account once shipped.

You can also check the same from your Fashion Nova account.

Fashion Nova may sometimes offer free shipping to Kenya or any address in the world or expedited (fast shipping) via couriers like DHL or FedEx but this comes with a minimum purchase order of $125 (approx. KES 18,750).

Delivery from Fashion Nova directly to Kenya via local post with free shipping may take between 20 days to 30 days.

11. Shipping to Kenya from Fashion Nova via Post or Courier (Not Recommended)

As I mentioned earlier, delivery by post or other mainstream couriers like DHL, or FedEx may not be your best option.

And here are the reasons why:

Couriers like DHL or FedEx may deliver your package in 7 days or less but it will be quite expensive. Small packages of less than a kilo or orders below $125 (Kes 18,750) on Fashion Nova can cost you from Kes 3,500 ($30) upwards and not to mention the customs duties and taxes to be paid on arrival in Kenya. Fashion Nova offers free shipping to Kenya for orders over $125 ( KES 18,750)
Delivery by post may seem like a good option at first since Fashion Nova offers free shipping to Kenya for orders over $125 ( KES 18,750) on some items but due to millions of parcels being handled by the post, it can be a slow process with chances of loss likely and not mention customs duties and taxes too.

12. Shipping to Kenya from Fashion Nova with Vitu Za Majuu.com (Recommended).

Here are some of the reasons why to use Vitu Za Majuu.com to ship from Fashion Nova to Kenya.

Limited access or choice on what you can buy. Even if Fashion Nova says that they ship to Kenya, this will not apply to most of the products on their website. Fashion Nova will choose not to ship to certain regions so restrictions are still there.

Takes from shopping on Fashion Nova

Shopping on Fashion Nova can be a good experience and you get to enjoy some of the best prices on many items. What I particularly like about shopping on Fashion Nova is their Sales section.

Every day they have some deep discounts on many items on Men’s Sale and Women’s Sale.

(The best ones across the internet, in my opinion)

You can’t miss a good bargain on any given day and let me warn you, it can be quite addictive!

It’s worth checking out. See the latest Sales Event.
