My 58-Year-Old Aunt Is My Style Icon—Here's Her Impressive New Shopbop Wish List

For as long as I can remember, my aunt has had the most interesting style. Whether she was marching to the beat of her own drum or jumping on the latest trends, there was never a doubt in anyone's mind that she was going to be the best dressed in any room she walked into. Naturally, her love of personal style and all things fashion trickled on down to me, and here I am, years later, writing about all of the above for a living.
Since my aunt's friends are constantly asking her where she bought certain items, I figured some of you might have similar inquiries, which is why I decided to ask her for her most up-to-date Shopbop wish list. Shopbop is one of her go-to retailers for everything from designer finds to affordable basics. We often text each other links to new items we're eyeing, and today, you get a sneak peek into what our conversations look like—but inBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing story format instead of our frantic texts.
Below, you will find her comprehensive list of must-have Shopbop items along with her quotes on why she loves each item. If you weren't in the mood to shop before, you certainly will be by the time you're done scrolling.
"I, for one, am grateful that skinny jeans have lost their prominence. For my build and age, I prefer classic straight jeans with minimal or no distressing in a medium wash (similar to the Levi 501s I grew up with, circa the 1970s). These Paige jeans check all the boxes for me. Plus, the length is perfect for literally any type of shoes."
