this is a bit random, but do any of you ladies know of a clothing store similar to Forever21 but with higher quality and not too expensive prices?

I like Charlotte Russe. H&M is great if you can find one near you.

Honestly, though...if you're looking for really well-made items, I'd check to see if there is an outlet mall in your area. Also, Ross, Marshall's, and TJ Maxx carry department store brands for up to 60% off.

I second those suggestions. Forever 21 does have iffy quality, but their items made from cotton seem better than the knit items. Perhaps you can combine the good items from Forever 21 with somewhere else? Also, clearance racks are your friend. Lots of stores have sales for extra percentages off on their clearance prices. Love sales like that. I got a pretty wrap dress once for under $20 that was normally $80!

I shopped XXI until I was sick of my clothes falling apart. Now I shop EXPRESS. Everyone says it's pricey, but if you sign up for their email coupons and shop the sales, it's the same price as XXI almost... and you clothes will last more then five washes.

H&M by far the greatest thing to happen to my wallet ever.

Thank you guys so much! You are all so helpful!

Ditto to Express and Charlotte Russe, in that order. Also Old Navy, although their clothes usually don't quite fit me.

I agree with Charlotte Russe and maybe try Wet Seal if you have one near you?
