Shopping: Shopbop Spring 2019 Trends

10 April, 2019 Nelia


It’s that time of the year – spring is in the air, birds are chirping, temperatures are climbing, and all I want to do is wear fewer layers. This spring, I am trying not to overspend, and instead invest in a few smart pieces that will complement my existing wardrobe options, while adding a little freshness to the clothes I’ve grown tired of. For months now, I’ve been slowly building my perfect spring Shopbop wishlist, and at a recent preview, I actually got to see a lot of these pieces IRL. If you’re trying to update your wardrobe this season, and are looking to try a few hot trends, below are my personal faves – from Animal Print (which is technically a classic, so you may already have a piece or two in your closet), to touches of Neon, to my weekend staple of Coveralls, you don’t have to embrace each and every trend, but you may just find a piece or two that you’ll love and wear all the time, which is my goal too.

And to sweeten the deal, you can save up to 25% off regular AND sale items until April 12th by using promo code EVENT19. This is Shopbop’s Event of the Season, so if you’ve been eyeing something, now is the time to take the plunge, especially if it’s already on sale…getting a discount on an already reduced item is such a good feeling.

Happy Shopping!

Holidays 2018: Gift Guide

21 November, 2018 Nelia


Shopbop
I love Shopbop for many reasons, but the amazing selection of high and low must-haves is what keeps me coming back again and again. If you’re looking for perfect holiday gifts, there’s no better time to get your Shopbop on. You can get up to 75% off sale and up to 25% off full-price items until November 25th, using promo code MORE18. Think vintage CHANEL and Hermes pieces that never go on sale, toasty cashmere, silk pillowcases, chic PJs…there are stylish gifts for every budget and every wishlist! And don’t forget to treat yourself while you’re at it.


Holt Renfrew
Holiday sales at Holt Renfrew are pretty epic. Over the years, I’ve treated myself to some lovely designer finds at a fraction of the original price, and this year I hope to continue this tradition. But while holiday shopping for yourself can be super satisfying, Holt Renfrew makes it super easy to stock up on prezzies for everyone on your list, from fashion lovers to tiny tots. There are sweet Parisian indulgences (Angelina Chocolate, anyone?), luxurious beauty finds (Diptyque gift sets, limited-edition CHANEL perfume, oh my!), stylish offerings from Canadian brands like Smythe, and too many heart-stopping pairs of shoes to count. Holt Renfrew is truly a one-stop Canadian shop for those unforgettable magenta-wrapped gifts anyone would be thrilled to find under their tree.


Indigo
Whenever I’m shopping for hostess gifts, presents for the little ones, or some cute but useful stocking stuffers, Indigo is my go-to. My faves this year include Becoming by Michelle Obama, cozy reading socks, a chic mirror compact that doubles as a cell-phone charger, the latest Fitbit Charge 3 (it comes in rose gold!), Jenny Bird pins, and one of the hottest gifts this year – the gravity blanket (for those with anxiety issues or trouble sleeping). Lots of pre-Black Friday sales are happening at Indigo at the moment, so it’s a really great time to get your shop on and save some money on those holiday presents.


Shoppers Drug Mart
If you collect PC Optimum points, then holiday shopping at Shoppers Drug Mart is a no-brainer. You can buy some really great presents, while earning points to treat yourself later. At a recent holiday preview, I spotted some wonderful gift ideas like magnetic makeup brushes by Quo, a wide selection of designer fragrances, luxurious beauty advent calendars (like this huge one from Artdeco), sleek electric toothbrushes, and so much more! There are plenty of gifts for kids, tech geeks, makeup lovers, hosts and hostesses, husbands, boyfriends, the mailman…you name it. And best of all, a lot of these gifts are available online, and plenty of stores are open 24/7, letting you shop around the clock.

Shopping: Shopbop Fall 2018 Sale

25 September, 2018 Nelia


Fall is officially here and just in time, Shopbop is having its sale of the season! Get 20% off orders under $500, or 25% off orders of $500 or more with promo code STOCKUP18. And what’s even better is that the code is valid for both sale and regular-priced items! It helps if you have a wishlist saved, so you can just add to cart and checkout before items sell out. But if you don’t, I put together a few of my fave key pieces for this season below. The sale will run from September 25th until September 29th, but as always, shopping early will ensure that you have the best size/style selection.

Happy Shopping!

Shopping: Fall 2018 Trends

20 August, 2018 Nelia


I love summer more than anyone I know, and even I am starting to get a little tired of summer fashion. And while I’m still not ready for the temperatures to drop, I am coming around to the idea of adding a few essential fall pieces to update my wardrobe for the next season. Plaid, velvet, leopard print…this season’s trends are all about standing out. And after spending way too many hours stalking my new faves on Shopbop, here are my top picks for fall essentials – from power suits, to chic everyday dresses.

Are you ready for fall fashion? Share in the comments.

Shopping: Shopbop Sale on Sale 2018

13 June, 2018 Nelia


I am so obsessed with everything on Shopbop right now! I already picked up a couple of RIXO London dresses, grabbed another bathing suit from Solid and Striped, and still holding out for that perfect Jacquemus summer dress. And the best part? I got it all ON SALE! Right now, you can get an additional 25% already reduced items by using the promo code SCORE18 for up to 70% savings. Hot tip: if your size is sold out, make sure to “heart” the item, because it’ll make it much easier to stalk and finally snag when it is back in stock. If you’re ready to add a few must-haves to your wardrobe this summer, make sure to check out the Shopbop Sale on Sale. It’s REALLY good!

Shopping: Shopbop Spring 2018 Sale

10 April, 2018 Nelia


While it’s still cold and miserable outside, I’m here dreaming of summer and I truly hope that it looks and feels like that amazing La Bomba video by Jacquemus. Even if it’s just a fraction as fab, I’ll be a happy girl. And the first step to recreating the essence of La Bomba is to invest in a few chic dresses and jumpsuits I can strut around in this summer. Luckily, Shopbop is having a major sale on their key styles, and they carry Jacquemus too! From April 10th until April 14th, you can get 25% off orders over $500, and 20% off orders under $500 with code EVENT18 on items labeled Key Style.

There are so many trends to choose from this summer, from polka dots, to clean-cut linen, to retro prints, to dainty florals, and Shopbop has the perfect dress (or jumpsuit) with your name on it! Shop my faves after the jump and enjoy La Bomba!

Shopping: Beach Vacation Packing List

29 January, 2018 Nelia


I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for winter to be over. Which is why I am extra excited for my upcoming beach getaway. My bags are nearly packed – a few versatile dresses that can be worn to the beach and to dinner, a roomy straw tote, way too many one-piece swimsuits, one pair of flat beach sandals, a pair of dressy mules, and of course a couple of pairs of chic sunglasses. And thanks to all of the fresh resortwear new arrivals at stores like Shopbop, shopping for my vacay was super easy. If you’re looking for a few beach essentials yourself, I put together some of my faves below.

Are you planning a winter getaway any time soon? Share your dream destination in the comments.

Holidays 2017: Best Gifts From Our Favourite Stores

21 November, 2017 Nelia

If you still haven’t started your holiday gift shopping, don’t panic. Black Friday is the best time to get deals on everything from hostess gifts to treat-yo-self goodies. And since one of the biggest sale days of the year is quickly approaching, I wanted to share my fave gift ideas from my most-frequented shops. My number one Black Friday (and Boxing Day) strategy includes a bit of pre-planning, favouriting all of my must-haves in my internet browser, and then buying it all online once sales are in effect. So go ahead, check out the fun gift ideas below, save your faves for later, and don’t forget to get something awesome for yourself!

1. Shopbop

Shopbop Sale is already in effect, and you can get up to an additional 30% off sale and regular-priced items until Nov 26th with promo code MORE17. My fave things to buy from Shopbop are usually the things that never go on sale, like Stuart Weitzman over-the-knee boots, and vintage CHANEL bags, but it’s also a great time to stock up on essentials like pretty undies and luxurious pajamas.
[show_shopthepost_widget id=”2904122″]
2. Sephora

Sephora is obviously a great place to shop for beauty, but what sets it apart is its selection of fab limited-edition gift sets. If you have a true beauty obsessive on your shopping list, treat them to a chic Armani Palette or the dreamy Naked Vault Volume IV…there are so many cool gift sets to choose from! My personal fave thing to order from Sephora (for myself) are the Caudalie sets – such a good deal compared to buying each thing separately!
[show_shopthepost_widget id=”2905102″]
3. Hudson’s Bay

I am still kicking myself for missing out on one of the recent Bay Days sales on Dyson vacuums, but thankfully, more hot sales will keep coming in the next few weeks. This year, I’m picking up some beautiful L’Occitane gifts from Hudson’s Bay, HBC PJs, and holding out hope for deals on anything from SMEG!
[show_shopthepost_widget id=”2904276″]
4. Indigo

Indigo is literally my happy place – any time I need a pick-me-up, I head on over to a store near my house to find my next fave book. This year, I highly recommend Call Me By Your Name by Andre Aciman (the movie is a masterpiece but so is the book). There are also a ton of gifts for anyone and everyone on your shopping list – from Fuji Instax Smartphone Printer to glam Jenny Bird earrings.
[show_shopthepost_widget id=”2904002″]
5. Holt Renfrew

1. Diptyque Constellation Candles ($145) 2. Charlotte Tilbury Naughty & Nice Magic Box ($250) 3. Twilly d’Hermès Eau de Parfum ($147) 4. Tiffany & Co. Piggy Bank ($170) 5. Me To We Choker ($50) 6. CHANEL Brush Collection ($234) 7. Holt Renfrew 2017 Holiday Bear ($55) 8. Bastide Bath Oil ($65)

If you haven’t been to Holt Renfrew on Bloor St lately, I highly recommend a visit – there are so many special activations and pop-up shops to discover, you’ll have a blast while getting things checked off your shopping list. There’s the CHANEL Gifting Studio with awesome freebies and exclusive items; a Tiffany & Co. pop-up shop with the chicest gifts around; there’s the Bandier pop-up where you can find sporty gifts for your loved ones or a perfect workout outfit for yourself. Either way, you are guaranteed to find a luxurious prezzie or five for your nearest and dearest.

Happy Shopping, everyone!

Shopping: Shopbop Event of the Season Sale is Here!

26 September, 2017 Nelia


Even though we’ve been spoiled with an unseasonably toasty September, I can’t stop thinking about fall must-haves – perfectly cozy knits, chic but comfy boots, and coats that are both stylish and warm. Well, good news is that Shopbop’s Event of The Season Sale is here, and you can get all of those wishlist items you’ve been eyeing at an additional 20-25% off…yes, even sale items!

Get 25% off orders of $500 or more, or 20% off all other orders with promo code EOTS17! And while there are some exclusions, Shopbop’s Event of The Season Sale is the perfect time to get a discount on items that normally never go on sale. This sale is on for 3 days only, and if past sales are any indication, popular styles tend to sell out quickly, so don’t wait around. I’ve already ordered some fall essentials, and can’t wait for my package to arrive!

Below is a selection of my favourite pieces available on Shopbop at the moment – cool ankle boots from Dorateymur, the most perfect faux shearling jacket from MOTHER, a leopard faux fur coat from LEHA, among other fun fall pieces. Shop them after the jump!

Shopping: Fall 2017 Trends You Can Wear Now

14 August, 2017 Nelia


It may be August, but it certainly doesn’t feel like it. Let’s face it…this summer in Toronto has been a bit of a bust weather-wise, which really makes me want to start buying fall clothes ASAP. Right now I am looking for chic pieces that can be worn on cooler summer days and through early fall and the below four trends will make it super easy to inject some effortless cool into my summer/fall wardrobe.

If any of the items below catch your eye, you can get an additional 15% off your first Shopbop purchase by shopping on the mobile app and using the special promo code APP15 (more details here). Happy Shopping!

1. Ruffles
As someone who’s not very girly, I am usually not into super frilly things, but this time around, I am loving how fresh ruffled tops feel, especially when paired with raw-hem denim or leather culottes.
[show_shopthepost_widget id=”2783320″]
2. Fancy Footwear
This season’s hottest shoes are either on-purpose-ugly, all-white, or mules, so choose your poison (or perhaps all three!). I’ve been loving the simplicity of slides, and I am also starting to see the appeal of some of the clunkier heels too. These convertible shoes by JAGGAR are at the top of my list at the moment. None of the sex appeal, but comfort and cool appeal for days!
[show_shopthepost_widget id=”2783327″]
3. Flares
After years and years of skinny jeans, our thighs can finally breathe a sigh of relief, because flares and culottes are in and are here to stay for another season or two. Whether you invest in a pair of Re/Done jeans or wear a pair of dramatic flares to the office, you can finally give your skinnies the boot (for now).
[show_shopthepost_widget id=”2783330″]
4. Round Bags
Straw bags and baskets were huge this summer, but for fall, round is in. Don’t be a square and go for a ladylike clutch or a vintage CHANEL shoulder bag – the rounder the better.
