I love the boutique experience for their meticulous detail spent on buying must-haves cross classic and up and coming designers. What I like even better is finding that experience online. I recently came across a website that does a great job delivering that experience: farfetch.com . The site is an up and coming chic online bazaar that allows ladies and gents to order straight from the racks of many one-of-a-kind independent boutiques, without in reality being in-store.
You’ll love the array of designer bags, hot designers like Marc Jacobs and Zucca andstaple pieces like Lanvin trenches. Also, the variety of innovative and lavish designers is quite impressive. You’ll be able to have access to the most craved items, and before you know it you’ll be rocking the chicest pieces.
The unique and distinctive element of this fab website is that the products range from “Lab,” to “Contemporary,” to “Luxe.” These are three easy words any fashionista can realte to. Lab? This department gives you access to the HOT up and coming designers that are just beginning to step foot into the world of fashion. Contemporary? Within is featured urban, hip, and casual-cool lines. Last but not least, Luxe? Luxe is the place for you if you enjoy the luxurious lines of high-end fashions.
I am going give you a glimpse into the LUXE department, and showcase some of the gorgeous items that farfetch.com allows us to indulge in. Some of today’s greatest designer pieces are available such as the offerings of Alexander McQueen, Marc Jacobs bags, and the exclusive fashions of Lanvin.
Here are some of our favorite finds:
Alexander McQueen:
The traditional yet modern pieces of Alexander McQueen collections are featured on farfetch.com. McQueen is known to be a “luxury” designer, therefore the offerings of dressy daytime attire, unique outerwear, and fanatical accessories are definitely something to take advantage of!
This crazy fun brown cow printed mini clutch is one I think anybody can covet. The stand out characteristic of this chic piece is the original McQueen knuckleduster clasp.
LANVIN:
Lanvin has an intricate aesthetic that is aimed toward the feminine woman. The ornamentation of their garments is truly like no other. The Parisian designer gives a meaning to the cliché saying, “Anything Parisian is chic.” On farfetch.com you can enjoy the structured garments and classy accessories of this desirable designer.
In one of my recent posts, I mentioned how us fashionistas despise wearing coats. However, I must rescind that comment after seeing this gorgeous double-breasted winter warm wool. The funneling neckline and solid brassy gold buttons ensures the right amount of edge and simplicity, combined.
MARC JACOBS:
Marc Jacobs has emerged time after time as a designer that can do anything and everything. He has created womanswear looks that are more than just clothes. They are ideas and inspiration that reflect a lifestyle. His renowned accessories, which are featured on farfetch.com, include some of his crazy-cool scarves, elegant shoes, and breathtaking conventional bags.
Of course this absolutely amazing bag comes from one of the fashion capitals of the world: Milan. The “Palais Royal Park” bag is extra rich in this cream leather with gold tone accents. The dual use made possible by the set of straps makes this bag super handy and feminine. This can be used as a great everyday bag, just to ensure to not drink any red wines or eat any chocolate bars while sporting it!
