How cheap is too cheap?

20140604-084335-31415997.jpgIt’s time for you to decide!

With “fast fashion” stores taking over and fighting for your deal eyes, who will reign supreme?

Introducing Forever 21 Red: Camisoles start at $1.80, jeans at $7.80, tees at $3.80, and leggings at $5.80. The idea behind the F21 Red brand is deeper discounts and greater quantities of trendy staples than the typical Forever 21 shop.

I’m all for a good deal but let’s consider the quality and cost per wear and cost per wear in relation to convenience. If you buy one camisole for $1.80 and you get 5 wears max and you have to buy more than one a month wouldn’t have it just been better to buy the $25 camisole that will last for 6 months?

Regardless of how you feel about the quality, the store has rave reviews so far in terms of organization and deals. It’s apparently not like the hell or chaos that most people associate with Forever 21. (Or maybe these reviewers are simply die hard F21 fans)

So will we see Forever 21 Red in Canada anytime soon? Don’t bank on it; they have one store open in South Gate, California and the Retail VP NA says their currently just testing the waters.

So if you’re in Cali, happy shopping!
