Forever Fridays: Fat Sloppy Weirdo Edition

So... I want to look like a fat, sloppy weirdo... also I want to look cheap... what do you have?

Oh, good. I was worried I was going to have to walk over to Charlotte Russe.

get it while it's hot!

Oh You're Cute.

So fresh and so clean!  The pleating detail makes this breezy little top look at least a little more expensive than $17.80.  I just want to throw it on over a cami and tuck it into a work skirt.  Totally sheer tops from Forever 21 are work appropriate right...  Cool.  That's what I thought.

Buy it.

Forever Fridays: Loosey Goosey Tunic Edition

So this is cute.  I like the idea of the belt, though I would probably replace it with one that I already own, as I am sure the quality of the belt is suspect and would likely make the top look cheap-ish.  But otherwise it's a cute basic top that is appropriate for the over 21 crowd.  And cheap.  Only $24.80.

buy it.

Forever Fridays: The Key(hole) to My Heart

I am such a sucker for strategically placed cutouts in clothes.  Especially on the back of clothes.  

They can take a kinda boring-ish dress like this: 

....and turn it into something that is pretty awesome, like this:

Forever Fridays: Holy Crepe

I am pretty concerned that this little crepe dress will probably look like a belted potato sack in person.  But I adore the mustard yellow color and sweet belt enough to give it a try... at least as a "running errands in the summer time" dress (aka "I am going to Walmart and I don't want to put on a bra or pants" dress).

Buy it here.

Forever Fridays: I Think I LOVE(21) You

I am not sure, but I think I love this.  It's a little cuckoo and a little sweet.  It's possible that I might just be distracted by the sequins.  Also, it's almost happy hour.

LOVE21 Puff Sleeve Blazer

Forever Fridays: Oh Hell No.

"So I was walking down Sunset and I was like Oh My God it's so breezy today it's really weird cause I thought it was going to be warm out and everything and OH MY GOD I just saw my reflection in a store front what the fuck am I wearing." 

(that is what I imagine this poor broad is thinking)

WTF

Forever Fridays: I Can Haz Summer Edition

Why is it not summer yet?!?!? WHY?!?!

Chevron Dress From Forever's Resort 2012 Collection

Forever Fridays: Old Timey School Marm Edition

Oh Lawd.  Forever 21 apparently found a wormhole directly into the closet of my fourth grade teacher Mrs. Overton circa 1990.  Great. Now I am having the sudden urge to demonstrate my prowess at timed multiplication tables.

Does this float your boat?

Forever Fridays: I Probably Should Not Like These as Much as I do...

So I should probably preface every post about Forever 21 by saying "I probably should not like this as much as I do" since all they sell is disposable crap clothes for teens and tweens, and I am neither a teen nor a tween.  Whatever.  I don't let that stop me.  Anyhow, I look at these camel colored corduroy shorts and all I can think is "sure why not."  They are kinda cute.  I am a sucker for camel color anything this time of year. 

check it.

Forever Friday: Chocolate Lovin

So I have this problem.  Sometimes weird crap speaks to me for no apparent reason.  Like this chocolate metallic mesh nonsense.  I feel like the chocolateyness kinda tones down the hoochiness.  Or maybe I am just imagining that.  Whatever, it's only $22.80.

Buy it!

Forever Fridays: Lace Sweatshirt, Sure Why Not

I don't know why, but for some reason this speaks to me.  I am not sure what it's saying.  Maybe: "Damn, you crazy girl.  I am a lace sweatshirt!"  But for some reason, I just think it's kinda cute.

buy it

Forever Fridays: Knock Off Edition

It's a little unfair to call this edition of Forever Fridays the knock off edition since I am pretty sure that everything that is sold at Forever 21 is a knock off of something somewhere.  Sometimes their knock offs are blatant and obvious copies of garments made by real designers, and sometimes their knock offs are just made in the spirit of a designer.  Like for instance this wannabe Missoni bodycon dress.  Other than Missoni's upcoming line for Target I don't think there is very much cross over between gals who buy Missoni and gals who shop at Forever.  So naturally this doesn't bother me too much.  Maybe I have a  shaky moral compass when it comes to wearable intellectual property.  Who knows.  Maybe I just love Forever and want them to succeed.  Also, who knows.

Regardless, this dress is kinda cute for under $23.  Though lord knows where you are gonna wear it...

Check it!

Men's Corner: Suiting at F21?!

So Apparently 21Mens now sells suiting.  21Mens as in Forever 21.  What could go wrong?  

First of all, they are sized S M and L.  I have long been jealous of menswear because of their more detailed sizing.  As a tall gal, I have often wished that I had more options that allowed me to buy suit separates in a way that takes into consideration my inseam and waist.  But alas, it's not meant to be.  I like skirts better anyway.

Second of all, they are sold by F21.  Come on people.  F21 is great for disposable party outfits, but suits?!  Probably not a smart idea.

But then again, maybe these suits would work out for a young high school fellow going to his first dance or fancy job interview.  Though all of the pics on the F21 website just remind me of douchey club doormen.  So maybe that's their key demographic.  

Who knows.

Check it out?

Winky Boobs

Hi there.  I couldn't help but notice you were kinda giving me the eye...

Even this poor model looks slightly embarrassed and defeated on account of this shirt.  Chin up girl, at least you are getting good exposure.  One day you will look back on this fondly and laugh to your friend, Unemployed Ex-Model #2, and say "Hey, remember that time I wore eyes on my boobs."

Buy it?

Good News Folks...

Orange You Glad

I didn't say banana.  How cute is this little dress:

Forever Friday: Party like it's 1994 edition

So I'm not gonna lie...

Forever Friday... The Beginning of the End Edition

The end is nigh (according to some billboards in major U.S. cities).  So what are you going to wear to the Rapture?

 

Way back in 1980 something or the other, Blondie had a pretty kickin outfit picked out for the Rapture.  

"Where am I ever going to find some sweet formal shorts and bedazzled tube top in the year 2011" you ask.  Probably in your own closet, but in case you aren't prepared, Forever 21 has you covered with this little jumper.  For only $17.80, so you won't feel so bad leaving this outfit behind when you get called up.  The only problem is you have to get completely naked to go to the bathroom.

Wear this to the Rapture
