Hey everyone and hope you are enjoying your Monday! As we wait for the sale tonight (I'm crossing my fingers there is one, so check back here for the sales list), here are some Forever 21 Reviews for you. I popped in real quick last Friday to do an exchange and wanted to share with you what I tried on.

Now on to the reviews...
Here is Forever 21's Tiered Racerback Top, which was featured on my February Lust List. This top fits TTS. I'm wearing an X-Small. It is loose fitting, comfortable, flowy and I love the tiered layers and gold mesh material along the neckline and bottom. The length is good as it hits just past my hip. The sleeve opening is a tad big and I suggest wearing a nude tank or cami underneath. I can see wearing this with denim and a blazer for a more casual look, colored denim or with some pants or shorts with high heels and a clutch for a night out.

Wishlisted.

Forever 21 Tiered Racerback Top Style# 2015036258 Price: $17.80 Color: (Taupe/Gold) Pros: TTS, tiered layers, neutral color, mesh gold material Cons: None Verdict: A- Must, Lust or Back to the rack: Lusting

Here is Forever 21's Tiered Ruffles Top. This top fits TTS. I'm wearing an X-Small. I was really drawn to the tiered ruffles as they are flowy and add a bit of interest to the top. This top however, made me look really wide since there is a lot of material which added bulk to my frame. I really like the soft pink color with the black mesh along the neckline. The back is also gorgeous with the black mesh and keyhole opening.

A pass for me, but recommend to try on to see if it works for you.

Forever 21 Tiered Ruffles Top Style# 2015036864 Price: $19.80 Color: (Dusty Pink/Black) Pros: TTS, pink tiered ruffles, black mesh, back Cons: Added extra bulk Verdict: B Must, Lust or Back to the rack: Back to the rack

Here is Love 21's Elegant Floral Tank. This tank caught my eye right when I walked into the Love 21 section. This top fits TTS. I'm wearing an X-Small. This photo doesn't do this top justice since the lighting in their fighting rooms is horrible. I love all of the green and beige tones. The top is short in the front and long tail in the back (not too short in front and not long in back). I was unsure about this top thinking that if I lift my hands up above my head, my stomach would be exposed, but that didn't happen. I was pleasantly surprised. I really like the intricate floral pattern and can see dressing this up with pants and a blazer or down as  I have hear with denim and flats.

Bought at full price.

Love 21 Tiered Ruffles Top Style# 200575734 Price: $15.80 Color: (Jade/Taupe) Pros: TTS, gorgeous colors, pattern, cropped front/long back Cons: None Verdict: A Must, Lust or Back to the rack: Bought at full price

Here is Forever 21's Bow Front Woven Top. This top fits TTS. I'm wearing an X-Small. Sorry for the blurry photo! I really was drawn to the bow and how the top is flowy, loose fitting and also the silver mesh overlay around the neckline. It added a bit of interest and sparkle. The length is perfect as it hit just past my hips. I can see wearing this with some heels, boots or flats.

Wishlisted.

I am deeply saddened that this has happened in this great community we have with someone we all trusted and looked to for great fashion tips and outfit ideas. I'm still in shock over how many people have been affected by this and I hope everyone who was affected in any way gets recompensed.

Hey everyone! I popped into Forever 21 in Davis with my younger sister today since I'm home visiting my family. All I have to say is WOW. It's the best and most organized Forever 21 I've ever been in. The staff was super friendly and very helpful. If you are ever in the Davis, CA area and like Forever 21, you should go! I did get a couple goodies at Forever 21 today while "just browsing." Crazy since I just went to the Forever 21 store at the Arden Fair Mall in Sacramento and found nothing, but I walk into the Davis location and I found so many items that I liked. I also picked up some items from Anthropologie's Sale yesterday as well (I will be posting "What I Bought" later today).



One of the items I bought was the Lace & Pleats Dress, which reminds me of the Gathering Breeze Dress but way more budget friendly. The top is a lace-type material (cheaper looking then the Gathering Breeze Dress but still very adorable) and the bottom is a soft pleated jersey/rayon material. I was drawn to the color combination of the white and yellow, just like the Vappu Dress from last Fall. The top is white, even though the color online says "Cream." I absolutely LOVE the belt is comes with. It's a bronze color and I can see wearing this with other items in my closet. This dress fits TTS. I am wearing a size Small and it fit me perfect. The top of the dress is stretchy thus if you are smaller busted, you may want to try a size down to see if the bust is tighter and more comfortable. I'm so glad I picked this little number up!

What do you think of the Lace & Pleats Dress?

Forever 21 Lace & Pleats Dress Style# 2000032476 Color: Cream/Mustard Price: $22.80 Length: 27.5'' Pros: TTS, belt, length, fit, comfortable, colors Cons: None Verdict: A- Must, Lust or Bust: A must
