Why is Shopbop such a tease? When I saw this lovely coat in my inbox last week, I'll admit it, I popped some girl wood. It's beautiful. And it winked at me. I went to the Shopbop website only to find they don't actually sell it. It's even flirting with me on the front page of the 'Designer Boutique'. Heartbreakers! It's happened to me before; it's not available in that color or it's a different length or they just plain don't have it at all. For all the come-hither, I get nothing. At this point, I just wanna get off . . . their mailing list.

If they don't start putting out soon, I'm making a move on that trashydiva.com. A girl's got needs.

Ha, what a great post this is! Yeah, not right that they would show something they don't even sell. Hope you find a site where you can buy something then smoke a cig after lol Report Spam Posted by luv2kreate at 6:58 PM on 07/27/11
That coat is gorgeous, I don't understand advertisements sometimes. Why advertise something you don't have? Plus... lol at 'girl wood.' Report Spam Posted by mollysaurus at 7:39 PM on 07/27/11

LOL well geez, in the words of Stephanie Tanner 'How Rude!' Report Spam Posted by sweeetkristen at 8:21 PM on 07/27/11

i hate it when that happens too! Report Spam Posted by thelovehammers at 6:22 AM on 07/28/11
yes, how rude of them. Its like a girl wearing one of those super push-up bras -- sort of false advertising. Though I am one of those girls wearing those super push up bras -ha Report Spam Posted by agauthier79 at 8:17 AM on 07/28/11
lol I love your wordiness..genius! Have only run into this problem with american advertising..specifically Fruit of the Loom bras..they have some BEAUTIFUL, comfy bras available in the US only. here in canda we only get undies (usually boy's and girls) which makes me think Fruit of the Loom is your version of our Joe Boxer. sigh. hopefully target will fix this. I do feel your pain though, it's a gorgeous coat & really dumb of them to be advertising it but not stocking it...they should've at LEAST given you a "when in stock date" or something.

ha-larious! Report Spam Posted by greentea_ at 9:43 AM on 07/30/11
haha Great post! And I love that coat. I feel like ShopBop can be a tease too. Sometimes I check out their "Lookbooks" and they dont sell the items on their site. Report Spam Posted by jessicachanel at 11:15 PM on 07/30/11
I work for a business, and that is their biggest pet peeve...if we sell out of something it has to get removed from their wholesale and retail websites immediately...or sooner! Report Spam Posted by cynthia725 at 9:32 AM on 08/04/11
this is SOOO true Report Spam Posted by sweetshorty at 12:28 PM on 08/09/11
Haha! Boy, you sure know how to put things! Have you tried calling or e-mailing? I've had a few dealings with them as a customer and "professionally" and they are all super nice and sweet over there. Report Spam Posted by w1drwomn at 9:12 AM on 09/05/11
