Like all fashion-lovers-on-a-budget in this country, I was very excited to hear that Forever 21 was opening in Dublin. Dubbed the 'Primark of the US,' Forever 21 offers a wide variety of fashion and accessories for women, men and teens, including a Plus size range. I am yet to visit the store, but I have visited the new UK website which opened at the same time as the Dublin store.
Maybe my expectations were too high, but I was ever-so-slightly underwhelmed by some of the fashion, particularly the dresses. My main issue with them was that the day dresses were a bit basic, and the going out dresses a bit tacky. Overall the dresses are just not as Fashion-Forward as we are used to on the Irish and UK High Street.
The best items on offer come in the form of jewelry and accessories, but I did find a few other bits and bobs worth noting that you can see in the picture above. And the store definitely is budget-friendly, with nothing pictured being more than about £30. I say £ and not € because I had trouble with the 'change currency' button on the website. Seems like they are still ironing a few things out actually. Anyhoo, one more chain store in the country is overall a good thing, and I will be visiting the store ASAP.
