Hello Beautiful’s! Today I wanted to share this fun little outfit I picked up for under $50 at Forever 21 while in Las Vegas with my mom! A Super cute pink stripe bell sleeve off the should top $17.99 and a black frayed hem mini skirt $28.99! I got the top in a Medium and I really needed a small, unfortunately they were sold out! For $18.00 I really thought it’s so cheap, it’s ok is a little big! Bell sleeves and ticking stripes are a huge trend right now! Who doesn’t love a deal! I normally don’t go into Forever 21 because the sizing is all over the place and the quality is 1 to 2 washing’s and it’s done…this is where my first tip comes in…
Tip: I have said it before purchasing very trendy items at a affordable price is smart! Trendy piece’s are normally just around for that season and then DONE! Why spend a lot of money on something that has very little closet time!
Down side to affordable/Cheap clothing is the quality is sometimes poor and the fit can run really small or in this case really big! So make sure to try on…This isn’t the place to shop if you don’t like to try on!
Tip: 2. I normally suggest wearing a affordable piece of clothing with a quality piece! BREAKING A RULE! Here I am wearing two affordable pieces and it works because the denim skirt looks like quality denim! Now I haven’t washed either item yet…So i’ll let you know!
Tip:3 While shopping affordable clothing shops look for items that the fabric feels good, seams are sewn well and buttons are secured with enough stitching. Helps items to last longer and gives a better over all appearance! I am not saying don’t purchase affordable clothing…I am just saying some are much better then other’s. Old saying is true “You do get what you pay for!’
Tip:4 My favorite place’s to get a Bargain but on designer brands are TG Max & Nordstrom Rack… Quality at a steel, WELL sometimes!
Have A great week! OX, D’Arcy
