My Shopbop Wish List for February 2012

by Irina on February 14, 2012

What an unusual selection for this month’s Shopbop wish list. Normally I’m always opting for a bunch of dresses, but this time I was way more smitten by the lovely tops and jewelry that was recently added to Shopbop. I’m especially crushing on the coral Theory sweater and the blue and turquoise statement necklace by Kenneth Jay Lane. So gorgeous!

Real vs. Steal – Funktional Cage Dress

by Irina on August 25, 2011

UPDATE: This post has been updated on August 25, 2011. Scroll down to see the new add.

Ever since Rihanna wore this caged mini dress by Funktional it quickly became a topseller and soon sold out everywhere because the dress wasn’t only stylish, but also quite a steal at $85! If you’re desperately trying to get your hands on the original, you may still order it at StyleQ, BUT (and there’s always a but…) the dress won’t ship before July 15th, 2010. Can’t wait that long? Read on then…

ASOS Cage Shoulder Zip Back Top

ASOS knows you love Rihanna’s style and/or the caged look, so they went on to create their own caged dress whereas they shortened their version and simply made a top out of it. It’s not that much cheaper than the original, but since that one wasn’t overly pricey in the first place I still think we have a bargain buy here.

Last month Rihanna showed up to the NOKIA X6 Launch Party in London wearing a sexy caged LBD by Funktional. RiRi paired her black number with black fishnet tights, matching biker boots and a chunky silver chain bracelet. If you want to copy Rihanna’s look, you can keep your check book in your purse as her dress is quite a steal for a celebrity fashion item.
