I think bitpik pretty much said everything I would've said. However, you get GA way too lately. It should be the item RIGHT AFTER trinity force for most cases. You also shouldn't be getting a Youumu's Ghostblade so late game, as if you were getting it for the armor pen, it becomes almost negligible, so last whisper would be the dominant choice. If you wanted it for the AS, there are more pro efficient items. For your skill sequence, I recommend getting equilibrium strike first, to prevent super early ganks from junglers, and so you can use the stun+1 AA combo. I would also recommend you to begin using Ignite+Flash, unless they nerf it to oblivion in S3. I recommend you also improve your coding for your guide, such as including the use of columns. I would personally also enjoy if you centered certain things.

good luck on your guide.

I like this guide, but i have a few tips that can maybe help you out a bit.

• While Hiten Style is undenyably the best ability to max first it really doesnt provide much level 1. Hiten Style is very reliant on either the stun from Equilibrium Strike or the on-hit and autoattack reset from Bladesurge. Without having any good tools for trading, especially 0 tools to engage or disengage(which Hiten Style doesnt provide) its very easy to take free harass earlygame.
• Maybe you should try out going 9-14-7 or 14-9-7 in masteries if you are having mana problems as Irelia and pick up 3 points in Meditation . A lot of pro players do this.
• Indomitable is one of the best masteries in the game. I think you should trade 2 points in the magic resist for this. The reason to why Indomitable is so amazing is that creeps deal a big amount of damage early, and it reduces that damage by a huge amount.
• Why go +4 magic resist instead of 10% crit damage and 6% more damage on enemies with 40% health or less? You can still take Indomitable but +4 magic resist seems a bit pointless to me.
• While i do like your abilities section and the layout of it i think it would be much easier to read if you didnt have two bars for each ability. What i mean by that is that you should only have

  Atleast since the bars are so big and stand out with their color.

anyways good luck with your guide.

Really nice build and understandable explanation. I think you should include gold items such as philosopher's stone or heart of gold because they work perfectly when you are losing your lane.
