Let us teach you one of the most valuable lessons you will ever learn.  DO NOT BUY PRINTS ON SALE. We don't care if its Tory Burch, Pucci, DVF, or Miu Miu. If it makes things easier, avoid them all together.

New lesson: Do not ask if or assume something is from Forever 21 (unless you're purposely trying to be bitchy). About ninety percent of America owns at least one thing from Forever 21, and none of those people stop to think of the "Taiwanese Infants" (thank you, Big C) who died making their disposable garments.  Its like a cult, but worse, because these practices are considered normal. We'll just happily prancing around the city in a Pleasure Doing Business or Herve Leger (everythings 70% off in the Melrose store, BTW) skirt and people will ask if its from Victoria's Secret or Forever 21. And even if they don't ask, we can see it in their eyes. These stores, like Goodwill, Target apparel, or the Salvation Army, have their place. But that place is not on our body.

Ugh I have absolutely NOTHING good to say about Forever 21 - including their maternity-wear-for-teens, plus-size-for-size-sixes... or their need to bedazzle and acid wash everything!

... On the other hand I saw a Herve Leger dress recently (in Nordstrom? Bloomingdale's? Not sure) that made me want to cry because it was so pretty ;-)
