I ordered my introductory Juicy Couture track suit from this website back in college (ah-hem, more than 5 years ago now!) For the women out there that can remember when Juicy first arrived on the scene... this was the equivalent of a first pair of Jimmy Choo's or Louboutins for a college chick! Anyways...this company's story is really what keeps me coming back...inspiring not only for beautiful style but also for entrepreneurship. When I placed my first order, there were only a handful of brands sold on the site and now....
From shopbop.com:
Since its launch in 2000 as a modestly sized online boutique specializing in hard-to-find denim lines, Shopbop has grown to become one of the leading fashion retailers in the world. Curated with a chic, modern woman in mind, Shopbop offers a comprehensive collection of designer apparel and accessories to suit every style and occasion.
Called "the editors of what's cool" by Daily Candy, and recognized by The Wall Street Journal as having "the best customer service," Shopbop's commitment to staying ahead of the curve and providing a personalized shopping experience continue to be driving forces behind the company's success. A champion of new design talent and pioneer in the magazine-meets-boutique approach to online shopping, Shopbop showcases its fashion-forward point of view in editorial lookbook features and receives frequent mention in Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and Elle.
In 2006, BOP LLC was acquired by Amazon.com, Inc., the world's largest internet retailer, enabling Shopbop to expand its services to enhance the customer experience. Shopbop operates from its original Madison, Wisconsin-based headquarters.
What's so great about this site? Well, besides the fact that your order arrives in 3 days or less...many things...
The Lookbooks! Need to know what is hot for the season? Maybe what to splurge on for your go-to piece? All the trends are demystified from runway to reality and broken down by item. My favorite Lookbooks right now are the "Sophisticated 70s"...
"Great Style, Great Price"
"Desk to Date"
The Sales! There's no getting around the facts: this is a high end retailer with expensive items. I always watch their sales and usually there are plenty of sizes and items left (if you are diligent, of course). All of my beloved Frye boots (more on that to come!) have been purchased for at least half off from Shopbop!
They even have Uggs listed on sale! When can you ever find that?!
The Accessories! Not only does Shopbop have fantastic clothing, they also have one of the BEST collections of cocktail jewelry. Some of my favorite designers include Kenneth Jay Lane and House of Harlow.
The Full Gamut! This site carries the best basics as well as speciality items... almost every jean designer and style you can imagine, lounge wear, t-shirts, cocktail dresses, outerwear, underwear, shoes and everything in between!
Check it out for yourself! Happy styling!
