Forever21 sizing?
I'm looking at a bunch of things online...how do they run? TTS?
Are their measurement guides fairly accurate?
And do they carry a lot of the same items in store?

Re: Forever21 sizing?
I feel like they run small and you can't do a full return, just an exchange or store credit.
I usually wear a large in that store but medium or small in other stores.
As far as what they have in the stores, I feel like they have more in the store, but that could be because the one by me is 2 floors.

Re: Forever21 sizing?
I just ordered a bunch of stuff online, but now I have a feeling it's going to be too small even though I went by their measurement guides. It looks like I can return for a refund if you order online and ship it back (assuming it's not final sale) within 30 days. Hmm...I'm keeping my fingers crossed some of this stuff fits.

Re: Forever21 sizing?
I usually buy online, they don't have what i see online in the store all the time. They run true to size, maybe a bit on the bigger size...i am a small, and some mediums hang on me....to the point i need to return.... I prefer ordering online from them then in the store. More selection and sizes and less chaos since stores have no order whatsoever.

I agree.
Even in the same shirt they can be cut so different. Very annoying. I have to try everything on in that place!

Yes this.
I tend to size up in Junior sizes.
I normally wear a small top- but in a place like this, or in a junior size anywhere, I get a medium

Re: Forever21 sizing?
everything varies store to store
you can mail your return and receive a refund
i find the sizing to be all right for tops and dress - i wear a xs/small in general and small tops fit me fine there but i will size up because i have more of an issue with length due to having a long torso.
jeans/shorts - i need to size up.
you may not have to return it all depending on what you ordered and the cut

Re: Forever21 sizing?
if it's junior sizes, I'm screwed.
At 6'1", I haven't been a "junior" since kindergarten! 
F21 stinks with online orders.  I placed my order on the 16th and it hasn't even been picked up by UPS yet. I'm supposed to get my order on the 23rd. That bites.

Yes, it is juniors. I used to buy Forever 21 when I was younger, a small or a medium. Now that I am older and heavier, I would be lucky if I could fit into a lrg at Forever21.

I agree. They definitely run more true to size than H&M for example. I'm a 0 or a 2 normally and usually wear an XS in Forever 21 but I wear a 6 at H&M.

Re: Forever21 sizing?
Whew! I was dreading receiving my order thinking nothing would fit me, but surprisingly it all fit.  My issue was many of the items were on the shorter side. My DH liked a lot of the dresses on me, but I felt they were inappropriate for someone of my age.
Good to know I can go to them now for clothes! (I had never shopped there before.)
Thanks for your help girls!!!

That is the problem I have as well. There dresses are cute, but I can not wear them when I am teaching.

What if you wear them as tunics with leggings?
