Fast fashion has completely revolutionized the fashion industry and how we as consumers view investments in trends that come and go. The increase of technology and cheap foreign labor has paved the way for stores like Forever 21 to capitalize on girls who want to participate in a passing trend, but either don’t have the funds to invest in name-brand originals of said trends or recognize that while there’s certainly a draw to trendy styles, the pieces that warrant investments in both quality and price are those which are timeless and always “in.” But just because you want to hop on a trend’s bandwagon doesn’t mean you should a) spend money on clothes that will fall apart after three wears (looking at you, Forever 21) or b) get the exact same items as every other girl. Fashion is your opportunity to stand out! Why throw that away?
So, with all of that in mind, I’ve compiled a list of twenty online retailers that offer adorable, original and affordable merch for everyone looking for anything from satin corsets to bodysuits to chokers.
