Forever Yours

Oh, how I love Forever 21. 

If you’ve never been. It’s glorious!!! The stores are crammed to the hilt with every kind of shirt/pant/scarf/legging/jegging you could possibly imagine.

And most of it’s under 20 bucks! The hell you say!

Some of you may cringe at the thought of buying cheap clothing, but it has its rewards.

Example: Let’s say you want to try out the latest trend of ghetto fabulous fur vests that you are NO DOUBT going to look back at in 6 months and think ‘What in the love of goat’s milk was I thinking here??? I LOOK LIKE A YETI. Hide the photos! HALP!!!! I didn’t really LIKE the trend, it’s just that everybody was doing it, so that made it OK.’

Then you remember that you paid upwards of $300.00 for it. Ouch! Hurts- don’t it?

So what are you really paying for when you buy into these expensive trends?  Impending shame, that’s what.

And shame can come MUCH cheaper. Trust me.

Plus, inexpensive clothing also means that you won’t feel bad if you accidentally spill red wine on it, tear it, or even spill red wine on it.

Or, if you lend it to a friend who then doesn’t return it, and then pretends that she never borrowed it in the first place. And the next day you see her in photos on facebook wearing THAT very shirt. Isn’t that right, JESSICA?

But who cares? It was 7 bucks. And for 7 bucks, you just unearthed the fact that your friend is a total wanker.

And that, dear reader, is priceless.
