My Irelia game looks like this->

Start- 9 pots 2 wards / 8 health pots 1 mana pot 2 wards (this helps you maintain, the most important part of irelia is farm-  this will let you stay in lane for hopefully 10-15 minutes)

(Also if you feel comfrotable, and are lucky enough to be on blue, when your lane is oushed up, go and steal golems)

first big item-  By the time i return i have atleast 2.5 k (try not to return until you have a minimum of 1750), so if im laning against a AP champion I get a spirit visage, if im laning against a AD champion I get a Sunfire cape(  Your true damage should be able to cary you through any encounter you might have) so you return to lane and continue farming

Second save for a wits end and boots of mobility, this will allow you to gank, run away and increase your attack speed to get the most of your true damage, alternativly you can build a frozen mallet/blade of the ruined king. This is based on how much armor the enemy is building, and how much money you have. this should be about 20-30 minutes in, laning is probably just ending or is over and you need to keep farming, run around keep all lanes pushed, it gives you farm!

Note- By this point assuming your team didnt mad feed  you should be able to 1v1 nearly anyone depending on how good you are with her, knowing when to ulti etc.

next get the opposites- for example if you got a sunfire cape and a wits end, get your spirit visage and blade of the ruined king.

next is whatever you feel just keep farming! I usualy get zephyr

So end game you should have somthing like this - 200+ farm, wits end, spirite visage, sunfire cape, blade of the ruined king/frozen mallet, boots of mobility. I think thats everything

some side notes-  Remember your ulti has life steal, and is a great tool for farming big waves

-dont use your ulti till after your "W" wears off

-  Irelia takes a long time to learn, she is relativly squishy, and hard to make deal damage but should you master her you can do amazing things

In the end its a opinion thing,  but this works for me
