B.A. Style "Steal" of the Day: Exposed Zipper Sweater Dress

My dreams of having a Hervé Leger dress (average cost 900 dollars) are still just a dream. There have been many companies that have made their version of the famous “bodycon” dress Topshop, Bebe, Gap, and now Forever 21 with the best rendition yet. Forever 21’s Exposed Zipper Sweater Dress is simply fantastic it has the curve hugging style, the banding and unique straps that are signatures to the iconic original. I’m even thinking of getting two and getting one cut shorter (knee length) so that I can have two great dresses. While the dress lacks the sheen ( it’s a duller sweater like material) of an Hervé Leger it’s still looks like it’s worth much much more than it’s 34 buck price tag. Happy Shopping!

Say what you will about Forever 21 I for one am not above shopping there (there Twelve by Twelve line rocks). There is no harm in buying some “cheap” items and mixing and matching. I do however prefer to shop online and bypass all the preteen/teen angst. What some of you may not know is for a while now in addition to the more upscale Twelve by Twelve line Forever21 has had a little sister store totally dedicated to accessories called For Love 21 and let me tell you this little store is great. You can find jewelry, sunglasses, and handbags yes some are “inspired” looks , but many more are For Love 21 originals and with so much to choose from you won’t even run into anyone with the same exact necklace. Best yet there are two Bay Area locations ( Daly City and Concord) to get your accessories fix, but for those ladies who are like me and don’t want to deal with lines, starting June 6th For Love 21 will be online.
