Forever 21 Splurge

Can you call something a splurge if you only spent $50?

I haven't been to Forever 21 since I was closer to 21 (sadly, it did not last forever).  No, scratch that, I went there to get something to wear to an 80's party last summer amid their unironic screen printed fluorescent shirts and plether skinny belts.  Everything was size negative four so I ran out of there in a huff and told myself I didn't want any disposable clothing anyway.

Rant over.  Okay.  Well I heard that Forever 21 actually has a bunch of stuff that does fit me for super cheap - jewelery!  I've been slowly building my costume jewelery collection.  I used to just (no joke) wear pearls on special occasions or my Tiffany choker for less special ones.  But then I woke up and decided to stop dressing like my grandma.

So off to the Forever21.com - definitely not braving the mall this time of year.  And to my delight, there were a number of pieces less than $2!  I hope it's not just cheap crap when it arrives.  I mean, granted, it's cheap, but I hope it's still wearable.  Here's my loot:

Love Necklace - $1.50!

Long Spherical Bead Necklace - $5.80.  I have a couple of shirts with gold in them that this will pair with I hope.

Turquoise Beaded Necklace - $5.80.  I've always loved turquoise.  I had a real turquoise necklace that I lost a few years back.  I have no idea if this big necklace will work on me but I love how it looked.

Rose Printed Earrings - $1.50.  I couldn't resist these vintage looking earrings for so cheap.  I only wear a total of four earrings right now so this will make four.

Nesting Doll Pendant Necklace - $5.80.  How cute is this, seriously?  I think I will lie and tell people I got it on vacation in San Francisco.
I think I got a few more things too.  I guess I'll be suprised when it shows up.

BTW: Hi, I'm Rory and this is my new blog!
