April 2, 2009: You've Got It, Flaunt It!


From: shopbop.com
Subject Line: You've Got It, Flaunt It! Styles that Showcase Your Best Feature, How to Wear the Harem Pant + Our Top 5 Handbags in the New Style File
Date: Friday, March 27, 2009

Shopbop's "got it" with their monthly newsletter, Style File. Three reasons why shopbop has beauty and brains:
(1) They find a happy balance between beautiful, aspirational product imagery and disabled-images friendly HTML text.
(2) Their copy has attitude, just like their subscribers. It's actually worth reading! "As more than one Wall Street mogul can attest, now is not the time to be hiding your assets. You’ve clearly got it. Flaunt it." Question: have you ever seen a longer subject line than this one?: "You've Got It, Flaunt It! Styles that Showcase Your Best Feature, How to Wear the Harem Pant + Our Top 5 Handbags in the New Style File" OMG! What do we think!?
(3) They seamlessly integrate product and editorial copy. I have to admit that I actually tried on a pair of black Helmut Lang harem pants at Barneys last week. I couldn't tell if I looked fabulous or like MC Hammer. I wavered between thinking "these are so now" and "these are so me at 13 in Z. Cavariccis." Hot or not? Got it? Flaunt it?
