Forever 21 Frills

Last week I found two awesome tops at Forever 21. Unfortunately they aren't online so my pics will have to do, sorry! Excuse the cheesy photos. I generally don't do outfit posts because I live alone and have nobody to take my pictures.

I am a sucker for bows and ruffles so I was immediately drawn to these items. Plus it didn't hurt that I paid less than $40 for both blouses. Did I just say blouses? When did I turn 74?...Also purchased from F21, $5 flats! I have only worn them twice and currently have the biggest blister from them. Hopefully they'll soften up a bit.


Personally, a new outfit makes me want to go out. So that's just what I did last Friday! My great friend Elana of Good Girl Gone Shopping came over and we made it a night.

For dinner we grabbed some sushi. I got jalapeno tuna and a random, mediocre roll, and stole a few of Elana's baked mussels. It was my first time eating mussels and I am not sure if I like them. The slimy texture is a little freaky for me.


After our sushi, we headed to a few local bars. I have lived in my apartment for about a year and a half and never hang out in my neighborhood. It's stupid really. I live in a central LA/Hollywood location and there is so much to do around here - and many places are walking distance.

It's nice to go have a few drinks and walk home, not having to worry about driving home.

  18. I'm a huugggee fan of ruffles and bows so I would have been drawn to those tops as well.

    I hate getting blisters from flats. But it seems to happen a lot with the cheaper shoes :( Well with my anyway.

  20. Is that a black sweater or a coat from Forever 21. Either one, it's fab. We've got Forever 21 here and I'm off to it, if I can find this piece! Have a great day ~ xox Alexandra

  21. I’m all about the ruffles and bows too. F21 really has great deals. The top with the tuxedo looking bow is absolutely adorable and I love it. I also like the flats and hope they get a little more comfortable for you.

    The night out with your friend looks like fun and I haven’t had sushi in forever. I could go for some soon. Places in walking distance are the best. Unfortunately we don’t have many around here. They’re close, but not close enough to walk.

    You look great in the last pic!

    P.S. I miss you (as if I see you everyday…lol). I have been working like a crazy person and haven’t had much time for blogging. Hopefully things are less hectic for me soon.
