Apparently the way to celebrate our nation's presidents is to flock to the mall to take advantage of the sales and to eat frozen yogurt. I went to Valley Fair today, which is a labyrinth of a mall, in order to talk to someone at Apple's Genius Bar about my laptop's power adapter, and the place was packed. There were long lines that snaked every ( Read more... )

The first dress is lovely!
And the last one too actually.

Pretty dresses are so pretty!

Wow, those clothes are so amazing!! I wish I had a good body to rock clothes like that!!

I know, this is totally incentive to get into better shape. I'm pretty petite (I'm only 5'0" and I usually wear size 0), but I could definitely stand to get toned and slim my belly.

I've seen pictures of you and I think you are in perfect shape! And size 0 is really small. A healthy body is the most important thing :)

the dresses are so beautiful!!!
i've become crazy for dresses lately.after not wearing any for years!people who know me are bewildered.

damn $90 is really expensive. :/ i guess new spring/summer stuff will be coming out soon, so maybe then they'll reduce the prices?

Same here! I'm usually in jeans and a t-shirt, but I love dresses and don't wear them nearly often enough.

I think it's part of the Spring/Summer collection, so no price reductions anytime soon. I did find a 25% off + free shipping coupon, but with tax it'll still be around $75, so striped green dress for me for the time being.

Really pretty items - I love the first dress!

Thanks! I'm so ready for this winter weather to be over so I can actually wear this stuff.

I COVET THAT FIRST DRESS. I have always loved Forever21 but I didn't know they were capable of having something so vintage-y! And hee, I adore that you made a drawing of the orange shirt. It is very Joan-like.

I know what you mean. The demographic in my area is really into neon colors and buffalo plaid shirts so that's mostly what I see when I go into my local Forever 21. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the dress on the rack, and it looked really nice on me, so I had to get it.

I was disappointed to find that the top was on on the F21 website, but I had to show it to my fellow Mad Men fans, whether it be through an actual photo or a dinky drawing. JOAN!
