My One-Stop Shop

Back when I was a print fashion editor, an interviewee who’s also a significant high fashion patron told me that she resorted to a few selected online boutiques to stay current. Coming with the abundant style choices is a potential choice overload – certain paralyzing handiness that even a veteran shopper like my interviewee found it tempting to lose focus with.

I also keep a succinct list of tried-and-true online destinations for the same purpose. STYLEBOP.com has been one of the most consulted for multiple purposes.

With a speedy stock update rate at three times a week, they are an unfailing source for me to get aptly educated. And as an experimental (and often times also consequently confused) shopper who frequently needs a quick mental reset, I know I can always type in STYLEBOP.com to clear my cluttered head with a focused collection that is individual, thoughtful, up to the minute, iconic, yet also cutting edge. It’s a one-stop shop.

The edgy-glam Marc Jacobs dress with the elegant Carven coat, the Parisian-chic ensemble that consists of the Nina Ricci bomber and shirt and the Joseph maxi, the 3.1 Phillip Lim jacquard jacket and The KOOPLES leather pants making up the perfect duo that oozes modest edge – these are only a few of the stylistically distinct favorites from my last visit. And I could go on and on.

Now if I think about it, between now and then, it’s been over two weeks. That means the stock has been updated six times. The quickly expanding total probably explains my restless brain’s constant hunt for aesthetic originality and its urge to create meaningful visuals. Well, when one burdens herself with such aspiration (ahem), it’s reassuring to know she’s got help.
