Review: Belted Surplice Dress

9, Sep 2009

Belted Surplice Dress ($22.80)
Rating: Buy It Maybe
Fit: Jen hated the print of the dress. While I agree the Safari Short dress is ten times classier, something about this bold pattern brought back fond memories of watching the Flinstones as a kid. Plus, you don’t need curves to fill out the shape. If you have a [...]

Review: Chiffon Plaid Dress

8, Sep 2009

Chiffon Plaid Dress ($29.80)
Rating: Buy It Maybe
Fit: Ok so they have this dress all over F21 in various prints and every time I see it, I get a little sad that it just doesn’t work on me. It looks great on Sydne, but on me the ruffles are just too much. Between my shoulders and [...]

Review: Knit Faux Denim Skirt

3, Sep 2009

Knit Faux Denim Skirt ($26.00)
Rating: Just Okay
Fit: When I picked up this skirt, it looked like it was for a 10-year-old. But I thought it might stretch enough to fit. It did. And the knit concept is adorable. But it is SHORT! I did the bend down test with Jen to see if I could [...]

Review: Strapless Ruffle Knit Tunic

2, Sep 2009

Strapless Ruffle Knit Tunic ($22.80)
Rating: Trendy for Now
Fit: I always find it funny what Forever 21 considers a dress and what they consider a top. Though they recommend wearing this tunic with denim or slacks, it’s listed in the dress section. But I digress. I actually bought this in white two sizes larger than [...]

Review: Claire Floral Pleat Dress

1, Sep 2009

Claire Floral Pleat Dress ($24.80)
Rating: Buy It Never
Quality: I was pretty excited about this dress. It had most things I look for when buying a dress. Cute vintage print, classic sheath silhouette. But then I tried it on. Ugh. The waist (again!) did not line up with mine, it was too short, the fabric actually [...]

Review: Mesh Hem Polka Dot Dress

25, Aug 2009

Mesh Hem Polka Dot Dress ($24.80)

Rating: Buy It Never
Quality: This dress has been around forever—the black and white polka dots with the exposed tulle. And this iteration isn’t any worse or any better than I’ve see. So that’s good I guess?  What I’m trying to say is this is a pretty tired, unoriginal dress. But [...]

Review: Romantic Flower Dress

25, Aug 2009

Romantic Flower Dress ($24.80)
Rating: Trendy for Now
Fit: The dress is super short so you better have some booty shorts to wear underneath—especially since the ruffled layers make you feel like doing a flirty twirl. They did a pretty good job at lightly padding the bust but the dress does run a little bit small.
Versatility: I’ve [...]

Review: Colorful Chiffon Plaid Dress

25, Aug 2009

Colorful Chiffon Plaid Dress (24.80)
Rating: Buy It Never
Quality: I really wanted to buy this dress. The plaid print is cute, the length is perfect and its airy. Unfortunately, it has that weird padded bust F21 likes to throw on all their dresses, which made me look too bulky up top and weirdly  proportioned. Maybe on [...]

Review: Pleated Polka Dot Skirt

25, Aug 2009

Pleated Polka Dot Skirt ($14.80)
Rating: Buy It For Now
Quality: It’s just a cute, basic polka dot skirt.  Doesn’t look cheap, doesn’t look expensive. But at $14.80, it’s probably the perfect high quality: low price ratio.
Versatility: I actually bought  this one. It has become part of my weekend wardrobe. Perfect for the beach or backyard BBQs [...]

Review: Mixed Flower Pearl Necklace

21, Aug 2009

Mixed Flower Pearl Necklace ($15.80)
Rating: Trendy for Now
Quality: This necklace is so gaudy that it’s fun! It’s supposed to be costume jewelry, and it looks like costume jewelry. But it does not look like cheap costume jewelry. 
Versatility:  People will definitely remember this necklace. How can you not recall hot pink and bright purple flowers? [...]
