I just returned from an Edmonton visit…dinners with friends, a little bit of clubbing, a Croatian bday fest, and a reunion with my adored Sephora and Forever 21 (ala West Edmonton Mall).
I spent over 2 hours just in Forever 21 stockpiling on spring accessories (oh mi!), tops and dresses.
The one thing I was disappointed in was to see how much crochet was in stock despite all the trend experts saying it’s time to store crochet for another season - instead it’s all about lace, rouching and other details.
Here’s a great Satin Lace Tunic for a crochet alternative, and I’ve already done a proper test drive on a nite out. Gathered knit tunic with gorgeous satin lace trimmed bodice detailing; and the bat wings drape and aren’t overwhelming.
Not lace, but good purchases:
Satin Trapeze Top - sassy with jeans, and brilliant in orange.
Basket Weave Tunic - I bought cream & it looks beyond it’s price tag.
Embroidered Knit Top - for a dash of bohemian
Teaser: I’ll post soon my other trendy pick from the aisles of Forever 21.
