Catalog Spree is also launching themed, curated lookbooks featuring multiple brands to help parents shop as efficiently as possible. The creation of the Catalog Spree-branded "Back-to-School" lookbook is the company's first foray into curated content from multiple retailers. It features top brands such as Crazy8, Mini Boden, Payless ShoeSource, Quiksilver, Roxy, Skechers, and TOMS Shoes. Additional curated lookbooks for children, women and men are constantly being published thanks to Catalog Spree's new all-digital publication platform, Spree Studio. The platform enables the creation of exclusive, custom lookbooks and catalogs for nearly any e-commerce brand in a matter of hours.

"American families with school-aged children will spend an average of $634 on back-to-school fashion and products this year," said Joaquin Ruiz, CEO of Catalog Spree. "Browsing, researching and purchasing products can be time consuming for parents - especially as they're trying to enjoy those last few moments of summer. Catalog Spree is making the back-to-school shopping process easy but keeping it fun by offering the most engaging experience on mobile devices."

Catalog Spree features more than 350 catalogs and lookbooks from top-tier brands including Forever 21, Kohl's, Macy's, Nordstrom, Stella & Dot, Target, The Land of Nod, and TOMS Shoes. Unlike online retail websites, Catalog Spree's visually engaging, full-page lookbooks allow consumers to quickly and easily flip through pages to browse and shop fashion and products on an iPad or iPhone (also available on the web).
