My recent Forever 21 fashion haul

So this post is going to be super long, but whatever! Last night I went shopping online at forever21.com and so I figured I would share what I bought! My total was around $250, but for all I got I thought that was a super good deal! All of these items should still be available if you want to pick one up for yourself. A word to the wise though, forever 21 is really weird fitting sometimes, so if you buy online just be aware that you might have to return some things, and you can only return the items by sending it back through the mail, unless you just want store credit. I am thinking that at LEAST one item won't work out and I will have to do a return. I will write the name and price under each item, as well as why I like it :) Enjoy! 
Lace Trim Chiffon Top: $19.80
I just think this is a super flirty, girly top. This was the first item that grabbed me on the site, and after deciding to get this my shopping cart just kept expanding. I love the buttons on the front - lovely detailing. What color shorts would this look best with? Charcoal? Black? 


Babydoll Colorblock dress in Grey and Purple: $12.50
I bought this one in two colors because it is super cute!! Plus for the price, why not? I am really hoping this one works for me, I really am in love with it. These would be great to wear to work this summer for my internship too paired with low heels or ballet flats and some cute accessories. 
Fab Colorblock Pleat Dress: $12.50
I bought this one because I love it, but unfortunately strapless dresses never work for me. I couldn't help myself though.. I am really hoping this one works! 
Colorblock Tank Dress: $15.80
I already own this in grey, but I just really like it for work. Paired with some gold jewelry and cute shoes you could really dress it up, and its very classy. 
Crochet Cotton Dress: $22.80 
I love the detailing on the top part of this dress. I got this just cause I liked it, but I wish it had come in other colors other than black. Oh well, black looks good on me :)
Ginette Chiffon Top: $17.80
I just love the colors and style of this one. 
Simple Knit Skirt: $7.80
Everyone needs a basic black pencil skirt right? (I already have one from american apparel, but whatever!)
Satin Bow Front Skirt: $15.80
Oooh, I love this one... I really hope it fits! 


Here is an entire outfit I bought, taken from one of the models on the website - I love it! The shirt, shorts, bangles, and ring are all a part of it.
Wooden Bead Chiffon Tunic: $27.80
Look at the beading! I love this top so much.. I hope it fits well!
Cheyna Cuffed Short: $17.80
Basic Charcoal shorts - I didn't have any in this color
Thin Dimpled Bangle Set: $5.80
I wouldn't have bought these if I had gold bangles already but I didn't, so I got them!
Side Dimpled Stone Ring: $4.80
Love this ring, and it goes with the outfit perfectly! And so cheap!

Here are some pieces of jewelry I got, I love how cheap everything is on this site! 
Mesh Flower Pearl Necklace: $5.80



Large Flower ring: $4.80
Gemstone Necklace: $4.80
Mixed Charm Necklace: $7.80
Rhinestone Cluster Ring: $4.80
Rhinestone Droplet Earrings: $4.80
Pleather Box Boddy Pins: $2.80
Fab Satin Bow Bobby Pins: $1.50
I also bought these in cream and hot pink, I love little bows!

  5. The ad sense box at the left upper corner of your post is annoying. Could you please reset where you put the ads? I can't read part of your post because of the ad.

  19. You definitely made some really great picks! The Lace top is beautiful! I love the pencil skirts, though, I have never had the guts to wear them. I don't know how to pair it up properly.

  20. These are relly cute!!! =]

  21. You should find out if where you are working has a dress code. In my office we are not aloud to wear thin straps like that, if we do wear a tank top, our shoulders need to be covered at least 3 finger widths. Just something to keep in mind :) Might want to take a long a cardigan just in case! Very cute stuff though!!

  23. I'm loving the Lace Trim Chiffon Top, so so feminine!! It's unfortunate that us Aussies don't have any Forever21 stores :( International shipping is outrageous

  29. The Wooden Beaded Chiffon tunic fits really strangly. I bought it online also and had to return it because it puffed out on the sides, it looked extremly unattractive. DDD:

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  37. Hi from a fellow Glitter lover!

    All the items look great, and so cheap!

    Cursing the fact we don't have Forever21 in the UK!

    Think I should start a campaign...

  38. So do we get to hear what worked and what didn't??

    ReplyDelete
  39. Hey Elle! So I tried wearing my Lace Trim Chiffon top the other day with a regular cami underneath it and it looks really weird because the cami was longer than the top. So I tried tucking the cami into my shorts and it still didn't look right. I was wondering what you wear underneath this top when you wear it?

    ReplyDelete
  40. I make a wish every night that some day we will get Forever21 in the UK!!

    ReplyDelete
  41. I searched all ovet the F21 site and couldn't find the lace trim chiffon top! Do you have a direct link?

  52. I'm thinking about ordering some stuff as they do post to the UK now but obviously returns would be difficult and pricey! How does the sizing come up? Thanks!
