Shopping Tips

Valentine’s Day Outfit Shopping @ Shopbop

by Irina on February 7, 2012

Personally, I think Valentine’s Day is stupid and I try to ignore it as much as I can. On the other side though, any excuse that lets me do some imaginary outfit shopping at Shopbop is more than welcome, so below you can see my favorite picks. Let me know what you think of V-Day, whether you celebrate it or not and most importantly, what you’re going to wear to impress your Valentine (assuming you do celebrate this day, of course).

Obsession of the Day – Ann Taylor Silk Button Tab Long Sleeve Shirt

by Irina on January 27, 2012

For the last few years I’ve been really feeling the attraction of cobalt blue. Not sure why, but I always feel magically attracted to anything that’s vibrant blue. And even though I’m mostly a dress girl, I couldn’t help but fall in love with this beautiful cobalt blue silk shirt by Ann Taylor. Just think of all the outfit choices you’d have with such a versatile yet statement-making shirt! You could pair it with classic black cigarette pants or breezy white flared linen pants to intensify the vibrant blue color. Capri pants, a pencil skirt or your favorite pair of jeans would go just as well with it. You could even consider wearing it bottomless if you feel particularly fashion forward/Lady GaGa-ish; I’m sure you’d still look A-class in it, though be warned, you might get some “Look at this pantless weirdo!“-stares from passersby. Anyway, did I mention I love this blue silk shirt? No really, I loooooove it.

My Shopbop Wish List for January 2012

by Irina on January 24, 2012

So this is it, my first Shopbop wish list in the new year. This time I tried to break out of my comfort zone with a few of the items I picked, i.e. the white structured blazer or the floral print jacket. Blazers, I use to think, tend to look a little boxy on me and I’m also very sensitive to anything printed and often shy away from prints on non-dress items, but this one by Rebecca Minkoff I found to be quite charming. What do you think? What’s your favorite item from the list below? Let me know.

Heel of the Day – B Brian Atwood Fontanne Platform Pumps

by Irina on January 22, 2012

There’s been quite a buzz around Brian Atwood’s diffusion line B Brian Atwood which features shoe styles half the price of his signature line. Most of the shoes are around the $300-350 mark which, unfortunately, is still a bit out of reach for me, but I might get lucky to get my BA shoe fix when those B Brian Atwood styles go on sale/clearance. Which, again unfortunately, sure won’t happen with these mixed metal platform pumps. Aren’t they just absolutely gorgeous? The shape is close to perfect and the metallic colors in this case complement each other rather than clashing with each other. Instant shoe love!
