Fashion For Cheap: Forever 21

When previously working at the Lehigh Valley Mall in Whitehall, PA there were always new stores emerging; and I saw many come and go. When you work at a mall you some what get this ego that you need know what is happening at your mall and what stores are doing what. When I saw the store Forever 21 being added, I was very curious. The fashion looked great and it seemed to have clothing for every style. I was very eager to walk in but also terrified to see the prices. I was raised in a very price conscience family, and over priced clothing just isn't what we look for. The way the store presented itself seemed very high fashioned, and seemed that it would be over priced. Well, that day that I finally walked into the store probably was one of the greatest days of my life. Everything was organized by color and style (work clothing, casual, dressy) and everything was reasonably priced!

Now many states don't have a Forever 21 but they do have a website where you can order your clothing. Sadly now I reside in Wisconsin where Forever 21 is unheard of, but luckily I have my trusty Internet to help me. They have selected items that are called "Fabulous Finds". In that category you can find plain colored shirts for as low as $3.50. Yes, that's right; I said $3.50. The tops are very nice, form fitted, and last a long time. It's great for us women who work in retail and have to wear "business casual". Not only do they have tops, but they have dresses. Currently my favorite dress is the Fab Colorblock Shirt Dress, priced only at $12.50.

I am also a complete advocate for their jeans. Not only for the amazing pricing on them, but for the fit. Every pair of jeans I have purchased was to size, and have lasted me years. Jeans start as low as $9.50. For those who are more of the accessory type lady, you're in luck as well. They have adorable accessories including scarfs, headbands, purses, wallets and many other items. I think I own these bows in almost every color. Priced at only $1.50 who wouldn't buy them?

For all those big beautiful women out there you're in tremendous luck also! They have recently created a collection called Faith 21. No more over priced Torrid and Lane Bryant for you! They have beautiful tops and dresses that are very fashionable and flattering. My personal favorite is the Striped Up Dress.

In today's economy is very rare that we stumble-upon these amazing finds, but when we do we need to use them to our advantage! I hope this helps a lot of you fashionistas out there!
