Forever 21 Strikes Again...
I’ve always been fond of indie eco-fashion label Feral Childe, ever since I first discovered it last year (sorry, we’ve heard of no sample sales or else you’d for sure know about it!). Now it seems that F21 has gone and done it again, copying Feral Childe’s hand-drawn Teepees design—a design that’s actually registered with the U.S. Copyright Office!

Awesome lashes! (via Birchbox) →
crazy indeed, but I too, kind of love them…

Cynthia Vincent Sale: Quick Recap
Detailed update to follow…but some quick takeaways:
Busy but not too crowded—pleasant shopping! (Thank you, Club Monaco?)
Only 1 rack of $20 samples (Racked reported 2 yesterday), BUT in the 30-40 min. we were there they replenished TWICE. (So try asking if it looks sparse.)
Shoes are dwindling…but saw wedges, sandals, and ikat ballet flats…all $65
I spent way too much...
