Forever 21, where have you been all my life?

Apparently a Forever 21 store has recently set up shop in Toronto, which created some excitement among my friends who had visited the store in the States. Unfortunately, when my friends Lauren, Alie and Hengameh were in Toronto a few weeks ago to see the ballet, they were one day shy of seeing the open Forever 21 store. At some point we should be visiting it this summer, preferably towards the end so we can do some back to school shopping (blegh, sorry for bringing it up).

When I was looking through their site to browse their clothes...lets just say I fell in love.
Let's start off with summer-y stuff:

I'm becoming a big fan of halter tops with straps coming up from the neck. This shirt could be a great beach cover-up or a great party top.
I really like this for some reason. It looks like it has a slouchy loose-fitting quality which is great for unbearably hot summer days. I've just recently jumped on the tank top wagon, but the weather has been rather cold and rainy for the past few days.
I do not own a tube top, but I am very interested in purchasing one. I could also use it as a beach cover-up/party top in the summer and then layer it over shirts come colder weather. First a basic black one

A fun one

A pretty one, which would be more suited for parties

The next two items are summer-y in style, but they also give me a sort of autumn vibe.
I love this jacket, and I think it would also suit my friend Emily very well. So I get it in chocolate brown and she can get the one in her signature Emily red.
I think this is a fabulous cold weather dress that you could layer over jeans or thick stockings, with some long necklaces on top. And the orange is super fall-like. This ring would go great with the above dress.

Two pairs of sunglasses for $9. I could get these aviators and some imitation Ray-bans that you're seeing on every other hipster celebrity these days. Normally I don't follow trends like that, but they look uber-cool.
