thanks! that was really informative, especially the part on how to navigate a forever 21. i always get overwhelmed in that store because of the size and busy-ness.

great interview. i totally agree with cate in that online sales aren’t necessarily the best bargains though. I found a pair of Seychelle boots for $79 at Nordstrom Rack and online they were still over $110. Granted, I wasn’t specifically looking for those boots. But I usually check end of season sales or discount stores first. Besides, it’s total instant gratification.

I too have found great pieces at Forever 21. Not everything is good, but once in a while, you find a diamond!

Good advice, if you live in a major metropolitan area. Those of us are in the boonies (nearest Target 1.5 hours away, major city 5 hours) have less options. We do have a Ross; but I’ve notcived a difference in Ross and TJ Maxx depending on their locations. Not all the stores get the good stuff.
So although bluefly.com et al don’t have the best sales, at least it’s accessible to us.
