Girlshop going out of business

Oh My Gawwwd ( big gasp)! I can’t believe it, I personally loved their lil shop in the Meatpacking District and their pioneer online store was not only fabulous but had a great selection and focus on emerging designers.

WWD Reports :
“After almost 10 years in business, Internet pioneer Girlshop is shutting down, a victim of the popular formula it helped create.

Founder Laura Eisman said her two-year-old brick-and-mortar store in the Meatpacking District could have stayed open, but challenges to the online business dragged it under.”

I will definitely miss them, let me know your thoughts on the closure by using my poll below.

What’s the Skinny?


I know every “it” girl has been looking for the perfect pair of skinny jeans. So to make your process a lil easier i’ve complied a list of what i think are some of the best bet for any budget… That’ll make even Kate Moss envious.

Cheap and Chic($35)
* Target has done another damn good colabo this time with blossoming designer Behnaz… her skinny are really cute

Affordable ($88)
* I got these bad babies from a guy at Mavi a while ago and I have about twenty pairs of Skinnys and I wear this one, specifically, all the time. Dress em up with some boots, or down with some cute flats!
You can get them at Mavi Lindy Jeans at Urban Outfitters

*Cheap Monday( $65)
Ah they are cheap but I found the fit kinda weird because the front was sorta baggy, so be careful of buying online, I’d go to Opening Ceremony ( if you’re in NYC), and check out all the other cute-ness they have stashed.
Opening Ceremony at 35 Howard St, NYC (sorta Chinatown) off Broadway

High End($160 and above)

*You know those sexy skinnys that Angelina Jolie always wears, well you can grab a pair at Girlshop, and they’re called J Brand!

*Nudie Jeans are sloe oh so cute!!! –

There is nothing earnest about the way these fit…Earnest Sewn are so divine!
