Well there is something you should always consider as Irelia, it is that you will outscale your opponent most of the time. Her early game isn't the greatest, but farming under tower is super easy and with proper use of her skillset you should be able to get practically every CS even under your tower.

Some champions - actually most of them - will outdamage you early on, but just let them push the lane and cs under tower, they will be exposed to allied ganks.

Oh and his advice to get a chain vest against AD top is really good. You can build it into Randuins/FH which are two really strong late game items, or even Atma's.

If you can afford double dorans blade + phage on your first b, you will be really strong in a duel (especially if you already have cloth armor or ninja tabis) post six. Even if you're getting destroyed hard, you can go gp5s and play for late game.
