If you search around Forever 21, finding a costume is a cinch. And the best part is, you can wear the pieces after Halloween is over. The first outfit I found is of my fave TV character, Blair Waldorf on Gossip Girl. Now she’s being lame at NYU, so I’d rather dress like Queen B [...]
If you see something on the mannequin you like, buy it that day. Things sell out way faster when shoppers are able to get an idea of how to style it.

Floral Printed Dress ($39.00)
Rating: Buy It Maybe
Fit: This is a cute enough dress–nice print, 40’s inspired silhouette. For a lot of people this dress will work and look supercute while for a lot of other people the cut of the skirt will make them look like a bell. I happen to fall into that [...]
Slinky Knit Dress ($22.80)
Rating: Wear it forever
Fit: If I didn’t know better, I would think Diane von Furstenberg was designing a affordable line for Forever 21. This dress fits just as well as printed DVF pieces in my closet. The piping at the empire waist draws attention up towards a flattering neckline and the subtle [...]
Velvet Sheath Dress ($29.80)
Rating: Wear it Forever
Fit: I had very low expectations when I saw this dress on the hanger. But after trying it on, it took an immense amount of will power not to buy it. And the only reason I didn’t buy it is because I already have a velvet LBD and I’m [...]
Scalloped Fringe Dress ($24.80)

Versatility: You can wear a fringe dress more than you’d think. The most obvious is at night with [...]

Printed Ruffled Top ($29.00)
Rating: Buy It Never
Fit: So this great if you really want to look like a bird of paradise. It’s probably not slutty enough for Halloween so it can be used just on normal costumey days should you have such days. The weirdest part about this dress might be the back that [...]
