The Forever 21 Saga Continues: Part 3

The risk of ordering online is that you won't always like what you picked when it arrives and you try it on, so be very careful where you order from and what their return / exchange policy is!

 The great thing about the Forever 21 website is that you can exchange / return for store credit items (excluding clearance) that you bought from the website in store. 

I didn't end up liking all of the items that I ordered in the past couple of weeks from Forever 21, so I exchanged a couple in return for store credit and ordered these from the website today with my gift card! 

Can you tell I love pink maybe a little too much? I have however forced myself to branch out into other colours beyond pink, purple and black as you will see. 

I tried this dress on and absolutely love it! I'm going to pair it with my gold madden sparkle heels this summer :)

This one is really nice and a good length for work. The other great thing about it, in addition to being such a nice shade of cobalt blue, the pockets are real!

The website has a lot of items that are not in store and vice versa, which is annoying because if the website is sold out, this does not mean you can get the item in the store closest to you. And right now dresses online are selling out like crazy! I had a dress I absolutely loved in my online shopping bag last week and during the payment process it became sold out! I didn't think this was fair because I had already essentially called dibs on one but that's the way it turned out and now it is sold out! 

The good thing is that if an item sells out very quickly they usually bring it back, so I have my fingers cross! 

When I tried this dress on I liked it, but I'm not 100% sure that it really flatters me. I'm going to have to try it on again before I commit to it and cut the tags off of it!

I realize it seems like I order a ton of stuff online, and truthfully I go through fits and spurts, but I do not always keep everything that I order. I'm very diligent about trying items on and returning them if I don't like them.  

It is really important to read the return policies on online purchases. Most of the time you can work it in your favour that you do not pay for shipping. With Forever 21 if you order over $60 in merchandise shipping is free! You do not have to keep everything if you don't want to, you just get a gift card for future use. So no matter what your money is committed to that store, which I don't think is necessarily reasonable, you should be entitled to a refund, but that is their policy. 

Happy Shopping :)

The Forever 21 Saga Continues

One of my friends got on the dress bandwagon with me and I was MORE than happy to help her pick out some dresses that I thought would make her look like even more of a knockout! 

Even though she didn't like all of them, we got 2 for her that she likes! 

The other one we ordered for her was this one - super cute! 

I love the contrast & look at the detail in the sash on the back! 

At the same time I ordered a few accent necklaces just because they were super sale: 

And this one: 

And this one: 

And finally this one: 

It was under $12 for all 4 necklaces with tax because they were on clearance, and it allows me to switch up my accessories just that much more! 

Forever 21 Order!

So I caved and ordered a couple of dresses from Forever 21.... did I mention I also bought 2 last night?? Am I slightly dress obsessed? Just a bit! But if you ask me for my opinion, and you're obviously going to get it by reading this, dresses are the most flattering, pretty and economical outfit choice! 

Just one piece of clothing can make your entire outfit for the day or night, pair with some cute shoes and accessories and your good to go! 

This dress I can wear into the office with tights and a sweater and it looks very comfortable! 

I ordered this top in green which was also available in green and red but both colours have sold out throughout the course of the day! 

Look I'm even moving away from a wardrobe that is 95% black clothing! I have a lot of pink in my wardrobe as well, but as long as the dresses are different cuts it doesn't matter! 

Now I am second guessing whether or not I should have chosen this in blue or red..... I will find out when it gets here! 

Forget the pants! No matter what your body shape there are perfect dresses out there to flatter you and make you feel oh so pretty <3 

Spring and Summer Dresses!

Even though we got more snow where I live this weekend, that doesn't mean that I cannot browse around for spring and summer dresses! I love the spring and summer time, especially because you don't need tights or pantyhose to wear dresses. Women out there, you know what I'm talking about! Pantyhose are absolutely awful to wear! 

I found several dresses that I thought I would share to get you into the spring time mood! 

Asymmetrical dress from Forever 21 

I have a hot pink dress like this one that I got from Urban Outfitters and it is such a fun dress to wear! Forever 21 only has this red colour but urban has or had several other colours that were all really fun! It's a great dress to wear out to a club with your girlfriends <3 

Forever 21 bowtie dress 

This dress is super cute and inexpensive! It also comes in a really nice shade of blue! 

Forever 21 pleated dress

Comes in Purple and Blue: 

I really like the blue shade and am considering getting it.... 

21- Super cute work dress! 

It's probably a bit too young for me but I know a few young girls that may look great in this dress ;) 

I'm curious about the length though, because 21 dresses are typically very very short and they do not carry all of the dresses online in stores. So sometimes you can order something and it is just way too short! The great thing however is that whatever you buy online you can return in store!

 21 - sweetheart dress 

This is another dress I am considering purchasing, I think it would be really cute for going out in..... decisions decisions! 

Here's hoping there isn't much winter left!
