I’ve sworn off..
I’ve sworn off of Forever 21 clothing, finally. This was something I had to give up. Why? Because I am tired of stocking my closet with clothes that are made of poor quality, have bad cut and are ubiquitous. It’s time to start looking for classic good quality clothes that will last through my years.
As of right now, I don’t have the money to start spending on super nice clothes but I do know that if I don’t swear off of Forever 21 clothing soon, I’m just going to keep stocking my closet with it and this cycle will never end. Sure, a shirt or pair of pants at the store is only 10 bucks, but soon enough that will add up. At that rate, I will never be able to save up for nicer clothes.
It’s been more than a month since I bought anything from that store. At first, it was really hard because I go to this place at least three times a week for work and it is recommended that I wear their clothing line. Since I’m quitting in two weeks I might never have to step back into one of these stores. My level of self control has been amazing and I’m impressed.
Here’s to a better closet. Cheers!

I was just thinking of applying to F21 for part-time work! D: I really didn’t think about the negative aspects of it, just employee discounts, paid work, returns at anytime, which will contribute to me spending less $$$ there. I’ll be sure to think more about this now, because my ultimate goal is to gradually fill my closet with higher quality items too.
Awesome blog! (I got here through soompi.

I have the exact same problem! Granted, I don’t go to Forever21 three times a week, but I definitely buy cheap clothing just because it’s cheap and then end up with a closet-full of crap that I won’t even get rid of because 1) I have never worn half the clothes, I just bought them because they were on sale, 2) they’ve only been lightly worn and I really just am not good at throwing things out. So I have more clothes than I have room for but it’s all crap! Bah.
