Sequins and Sea Breezes: Ruffled Off The Shoulder

Ruffled Off The Shoulder

7/13/2016


Happy humpday dolls! Half way through the week! Although today is definitely going to be a hellish day for me. I have back to back meetings all day starting at 11 am all the way until 4 pm. But at least that should make the day go by fast, am I right? So it appears that I'm still loving all the things off the shoulder over here and I don't think that's going to change any time soon so if you're getting sick of seeing this trend, I apologize in advance. 
A few weeks ago I was walking through the mall and I decided to duck into Forever 21 (which I almost NEVER do) and immediately was overwhelmed. Does anyone else have this problem when walking into F21? After glancing around the store for a minute tops, I turned around and headed straight back out when this top caught my eye. I went over, picked it up took one glance at the fitting room line and said to myself "that's not happening" so I just decided to buy it. Buying things at F21 without trying them on can be a complete hit or miss so I was super happy when I tried this on and not only did it look cute on but it was super comfy too. It's perfect for all of these ridiculously hot days we've been having and will be great to carry over into fall. Plus at under $15, you can't beat the price! I love walking into stores and finding those hidden gems without even looking!

  2. I always feel overwhelmed going into F21, I need a clear plan of attack before heading in there - like knowing exactly what I need to buy! I love the pattern of the OTS top - so pretty and that bag is so perfect for summer - looks like it holds a ton! xo, biana -BlovedBoston

  7. Such a fabulous top on you! I get overwhelmed in F21 too, so what I try to do is do a second lap around the store and that's when I end up finding some awesome pieces. I worked there in high school when they first came out, and I can give you some tips as to how they "organize" and set up their stores if you're looking for something specific ;-)

  9. I am constantly overwhelmed when walking into F21! That's so awesome it was a hit. You are so right, F21 is either a total hit or a complete miss. And what a great price! Love those red sandals, too!

  18. I always fee the exact same way when I walk into F21... Mostly because it makes me feel old and prudish since I can't imagine wearing like 70% of the clothes they sell! I do love your OTS top, so cute!

  30. This is such a win for F21!! I am the same way about shopping there, I need to mentally prepare myself for the chaos as I walk through the mall before I get there... then I take a look in and decide if it's worth it haha!

  32. This outfit is so adorable and so chic! I definitely get very overwhelmed when I walk into Forever 21, and I think that's the reason why I avoid it instead of shopping there. You just have to want to look through all of their clothes to find something, or get lucky like you did!

  33. I love the top! It looks kinda like Ikat and it's off-shoulder, my current obsession.
