“Apps,” or application software, are designed to aid users in specific tasks. The majority of the time, when referencing apps, we are referring to the programs made specifically for our mobile phones. As our phones become sophisticated, naturally so do the applications. If you want to stay on top of fashion trends, synthesize coverage and news feeds, or maintain your virtual closet, we’ve got the app for you! The following list rounds up our 10 most lauded apps.

1. ThisNext.com, an independent social shopping platform, partnered with luxury retailer Neiman Marcus to launch ShoeDish, an innovative Facebook application that allows users to catalog their favorite shoes and share interests and purchases with others. ShoeDish is the first product-based application dedicated solely to shoes.
2. Emergency Medical Center Locator (EMCL) is an application designed to save your life, literally.

This internationally accessible application may not be fashion oriented, but it is crucial when time is of the essence.
