Whoa.
(and thanks! to Crew Girl in Canada & Kati for the, ahem, elbow nudge- I had no idea this was going on!)
Forever21.com is offering free shipping on all orders now through November 3rd with code "F21FRIENDS". I've shopped at F21 long enough to know that they NEVER offer anything like this, so it's kind of a big deal. Especially if you're like me and hate the store with a passion; I'm talking about the actual brick & mortar shop, which is kind of like a bad rummage sale brimming with teenage hormones and loud (bad) music. I much prefer to shop online where I can bask in my own not-quite-a-teenager-not-quite-an-old-lady hormones and loud (bad) music. Thanks!
Here are a few things I am currently making grabby hands (grāb'ē hānds- noun: to grab at something with deep seated want and excitement; "Look mom, I'm making the grabby hands!") at and might have to order:

Bow Front Top
This top is a bit odd, sure; but I loves it. I think it's the color. And the bow. BOW!

Sleeveless Jeweled Top
I think this top would look fabulous under cardigans and paired with a lovely pair of cognac brown boots.
Good luck & happy shopping, darlings!

Sequin Ruffle Hem Dress
Nice and chic for under $25, and it bears a very serious resemblance to this amazing Nanette Lepore dress.

Dania Chiffon Ruffle Dress
Actually, I already own this dress and it's pretty much awesome. It fits true to size- so if you're looking for a pretty, ruffly black dress to dress up with perhaps some stripey tights for winter, this dress is perfect!

Fancy Fleece Jacket
This reminds me exactly of my beloved Nanette Lepore Seaside jacket, which I paid $500 for. Ack. Super cute coat (and only $24.50!), but ack!

Rosalind Tweed Jacket
Slap on a black flower pin and you have a look similar to the Ann Taylor Bistro jacket for much, much less.

Wool Blend Overcoat
So chic yet so subtle, and only to be worn with a sleek, high chignon a la Betty Draper. Comes in black, too, in case you're scared of winter white. ;)

Satin Jacquard Skirt in Purple
This skirt would be so easy to dress up and down for fall and winter. Pair with a pretty t-shirt (like this one from J Crew), tights, a gorgeous necklace, and heels for casual glamor; or top with a frilly ruffly top (like this) (or this!) for a night out. Easy peasy and done.

Chloe, Colorful Colorado. 5'8" (only) when teetering in her highest 6 inch Miu Miu platform heels. Likes fashion, broccoli, ice cream, clarifying that she does not eat ice cream with her broccoli as to not cause worldwide panic, hoarding beauty products & pretty shoes, tickle fights with her husband (he would like to clarify that he does not like them back, OKAY?), anything covered in sprinkles, any alcoholic beverage made with Tang, live music, clicking the camera, sarcasm fonts, vases stuffed full of pretty flowers, and laughing hard until her belly hurts. Wants an adventurous life, lots of puppies, to never obtusely wander around with her fly down, and to be an iconic Diane Von Furstenberg wrap dress with a bright, festive print when she grows up. This is where she bravely documents it all. (
