FOR the LOVE of 21 Beads
Let’s be completely honest. The stuff all of us love buying from Forever 21 isn’t the best quality. Most of it is an exact replica of something from our favorite runways and even if it isn’t knocked-off, the clothes are sure to fall apart sooner than you want and the necklaces turn you or themselves green within a couple wears,. That, however, hasn’t stopped me from shopping there, and it definitely doesn’t keep me from loving their cheap prices and constantly updated e-commerce store. Though I am warning all that read this blog, do not to buy any metallic jewelry I highly advise you view and love this rad beaded necklace.
The ‘Zaria Beaded Necklace’ is from F21’s new shop For Love 21 (the model looks like Alicia Keys, weird!), which is currently only chock full of accessories, but I’m assuming sooner or later clothes will actually start appearing on the site too.
Beaded necklaces are the only kind of necklace I suggest buying from Forevs sheerly because there is very little metal that can tarnish. Plus, this necklace, in particular, is completely gaudy and granny’s-favorite-jewels fabulous, both traits I tend to look for in necklaces. Also some of the beads sort of look like eyes, making it a bit creepy, but again creepy in a good way!
General Rule: If you play with your necklaces, like I do, make sure to check the strength of the metal links, and if it’s a beaded necklace, check to make sure the string used to thread the beads won’t snap when yanked and tugged.
What other stores are you guilty ‘poor quality’ pleasures?
Clair’s!
Hey… how long did it take Baker’s to send you your confirmation e-mail?? I don’t think it’s been shipped yet and I hope I gave the right e-mail, haha. I want my shoesies now!!
I ordered mine on a Sunday and received my confirmation on Monday. They’ll come soon I promise!
I’m not much of a necklace person, but that’s a really great chunk of beads. And yes, Forever 21’s quality is pretty pitiful but the prices aren’t so, it’s hard not to shop there.
Thiats last blog post..Essentially Summer
I know what you mean Thiat, I just can’t help buying things form Forevs.
I love big bold necklaces, because that’s usually the only jewelry I wear. I used to wear really large chandelier earrings and dainty necklaces, but I grew out of that phase. I haven’t worn earrings in about a year, and I only own a couple bracelets and no rings (because I’d lose them)— necklaces are all I have!
I cannot find the zaria beaded necklace, and want to buy it!
I’m sorry, apparently Forever 21 removed the For Love 21 website and the necklace is no longer being sold. You can sift through all the Forever 21 necklaces here.
