But still, we sounded fancy.<\/p>\n<p>Well, Twitter&#39;s getting fancier. The social media site\/app\/way of life is launching a &quot;buy&quot; button, which will making shopping online an even easier task.<\/p>\n<p>As described by WWD, the button will allow users to store their bank details on Twitter&#39;s system&nbsp;(which they say is secure, but look: I&#39;m scared), and then when coming across an item they like, users will click and be days away from receiving their goods. So far, Burberry&#39;s signed up, as well as Eminem, Pharrell Williams, Demi Lovato, and Wiz Khalifa, who used it for limited-edition merchandise. Other brands include Home Depot, Music Today, and Stripe, while Burberry&#39;s waiting until after its London Fashion Week show on the 15th.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;When you&#39;re talking about a consumer&#39;s payment info and commerce in general, we&#39;re going to wade very cautiously into those waters &#8212; so that when larger brands jump in they can feel great about that experience,&quot; said Twitter head of commerce, Nathan Hubbard. &quot;We&#39;re testing with [Burberry] and I think we&#39;ll break some new ground with them and set some examples of other ways that brands can follow.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>So what do you think? Will you take the plunge or will you wait for bigger brands? Or will you stick to the metaphoric dELiA&#39;s catalogue and just shop the way we know and love?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[Photo: Burberry Prorsum Fall 2014 RTW, Model Cara Delevingne]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twitter launches a &#8220;buy&#8221; button<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":67426,"featured_media":81201,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[64593],"tags":[66419,80133,70651,64632],"class_list":["post-56105","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-whisper","tag-burberry","tag-keep-eyes-healthy","tag-best-foods","tag-twitter"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Would You Buy Clothes Off Twitter? - 29Secrets<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Demi Lovato and others to take advantage of the Twitter &quot;buy&quot; button\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Would You Buy Clothes Off Twitter? - 29Secrets\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Demi Lovato and others to take advantage of the Twitter &quot;buy&quot; button\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/pop-culture\/daily-whisper\/would-you-buy-clothes-twitter\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"29Secrets\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/29Secrets\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2014-09-09T14:06:54+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/burberry%20cara.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"800\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Anne T.
