For women who have fine-tuned their personal style (and branched away from the trends, might I add), Forever 21 will be a long scavenger hunt for you. It's an overwheming 2 storeys of the latest fashion trends with store layouts changing a little too often for our own good. I used to come here a lot the past 2 years until not too long ago, the loud pipe-in music started to not ring well with me anymore.
More often than not, I would spend about 2-3 hours rummaging through the shelves & clothing stacks only to end up with nothing in my shopping bag but (probably) a new necklace - if I'm lucky. Once I got a cute gold-plated heart necklace that faded into an itchy (and rusty) bronze in about 3 weeks and in another instance, I got myself a pair of $17 jeans and the seams popped after about half a year. Sure, they're cheap but durability is not something you can count on with Forever 21.
If you're a shopper who delights in quantity over quality and are looking into getting something cheap for a one-time event, stop by the store, but make sure to have an idea of what you want beforehand and ask the staff about it or else you'll lose a lot of time (& money, since there are a lot of attractive deals) before you know it. Don't be too quick to fall prey on the low price tags.
