I have found that Forever21 isnt even worth the cheapo prices because you can only count on the clothing lasting for one wear. Also the fits are so inconsistent, I often go into the fitting room with 8 items and buy nothing. Its a waste of time and money if you ask me.

 I do the same thing - I go into the fitting room with an armload of junk and come out with nothing. I do that everywhere, but f21 is especially bad. Still, every few months I find something super cute and exactly what I want, so I keep going back all the time, just hoping. Even though I know their whole deal is that they get fashionable designs for super cheap prices, a lot of the time everything is just a little off and I end up coming out empty handed. I do like them for cheap headbands and jewelry, though - although the jewelry doesn't last very long either. I love a necklace I got from there but only wore it twice before half the paint chipped off (I didn't even realize it was painted!)

But what I hate perhaps the most is the return policy. You can only return things within 3 weeks, and can only get store credit! Uggghhh. They'd probably make a lot more money off of me if I knew I could take something home, play around with it, and return it if I'm not feeling it. But I can't risk anything.
