Review: Draped Cardigan

27, Oct 2009

Draped Cardigan ($24.80)
Rating: Buy It Maybe
Fit: This cardigan (this is not a cardigan, btw) has absolutely no fit so really I shouldn’t spend too much time going on about it. But I’m just going to say I’m not the biggest fan, that’s just a taste thing though because really it’s just a piece of fabric [...]

Review: Floral Printed Dress

22, Oct 2009

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 [...]

Review: Velvet Roses Skirt

13, Oct 2009

Velvet Roses Skirt ($19.80)
Rating: Buy it maybe
Fit: The majority of Forever 21’s full high-waisted skirts fit well. They nip the waist and hide any flaws you might have below the belt. Fit wise, this one was just as cute as my floral and tribal skirts that I absolutely love. Even the velvet wasn’t so bad. [...]

Review: Safety Pin Sweater Top

1, Oct 2009

Safety Pin Sweater Top ($22.80)
Rating: Buy it Maybe
Fit: One of my favorite things to wear for fall is a big comfy sweater over leggings. Now that I broke up my boyfriend I no longer can’t steal his. So I thought  this sweater would be a fun alternative. I was wrong. Even in two sizes bigger [...]

Review: Mesh And Stone Trim Tee

29, Sep 2009

Mesh And Stone Trim Tee ($32.00)
Rating: Buy It Maybe

Fit: This is one of those long, tight rayon shirts that hugs every sort of fat roll you may have no matter how small. Things like this are really just made for the mannequins. I mean, look how that shirt looks on that plastic, flawless body. [...]

Review: Pleated Silky Dress

27, Sep 2009

Pleated Silky Dress ($22.80)
Rating: Buy It Maybe
Fit: You can see Sydne sneaking into my dressing room behind me and the first thing she said was, “Whoa boobies!” And seriously, whoa boobies in this dress. I tried it on because anything pleaty immediately request a trip to the dressing room and I’m happy to report these [...]

Review: Satin Woven Tunic

27, Sep 2009

Satin Woven Tunic ($22.80)
Rating: Buy It Maybe
Fit: I don’t know if buttoned-down shirts really require much reviewing. Like, we’re all pretty aware of how they fit, right? It’s really not that hard to mess them up. Like this one, it’s fine. It’s blousey and a nice, rich color. It has this weird tie that–if you’re [...]

Review: Ankle Tab Jumpsuit

20, Sep 2009

Ankle Tab Jumpsuit ($27.80)

Rating: Buy It Maybe
Fit: I’m a jumpsuit girl. So as long as it doesn’t have a tapered leg, I’m trying it on. This particular one was incredibly unflattering. But it was quite possibly the most comfortable thing I’ve ever slipped into in a Forever 21 dressing room.
Versatility: If you have $30 to [...]

Review: Blurred Floral Bustier Top

16, Sep 2009

Blurred Floral Bustier Top ($17.80)
Rating: Buy It Maybe
Fit: Finally! A corset style top at Forever 21 without that tacky elastic back. Granted, the quality wasn’t perfect. I could already see the sticking unraveling at the bust. But the print is pretty and a zipper is better than elastic any day unless you’re preggers.
Versatility: Wear it [...]

Review: Silk Pleated Tunic

15, Sep 2009

Silk Pleated Tunic ($34.00)
Rating: Buy It Maybe

Fit: Well isn’t this a nice little nightgown. Seems like the perfect sort of thing a 1960’s sex kitten could wear to bed (unbelted natch and yes, I do watch too much Mad Men). Oh, just one problem. This is not a nightgown. Rather this falls into that difficult [...]
