Lookbook: Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance

Head's up: There is a lot going on in this post.
Well we're almost done with the month of October and with the recent cold front, it's actually sweater weather time in south bay. I must confess, I had put myself on a Forever 21 shopping ban because I was COMPLETELY over them. But in the past couple of months, I've seen some nice pieces by F21 on other bloggers. So that, along with the fact that I won a $25 gift card from Pout Lips, Curvy Hips, made me go back on my word and shop at Forever 21.
Can you believe that not only did I shop online for these boyfriend jeans, but I also went to the store (as in brick and mortar store in a mall--gasp!) and bought this sweater? So I bought the b/f jeans in size 27 online and realized that since it's b/f cut, size 27 is a bit big. So I went to the store to exchange them for a 26 but could only find size 24. They fit (surprisingly) but weren't giving me the loose b/f fit that I desired so I kept
the 27s (cool story, bro).
I added my collar top (last seen in Lookbook: Field of Dreams) under the sweater because all the girls are doing this shit style.

How do you muses feel about these Erin pumps by ShoeDazzle? You might have seen them on my Instagram, and they are, of course, dupes of the Valentino rockstud slingbacks, and go for a lot less than $900.♥ F21 striped knit sweater ♥ Romwe collared top ♥ F21 destroyed boyfriend jeans ♥ ShoeDazzle Erin pumps ♥ F21 lacquered bib necklace ♥

What do you think of this look?

Judging by my Pinterest, some ecards know me so well!
P.S. For some reason, boyfriend jeans remind me of this awesome song, "I'm Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance" by the Black Kids ~ performed by Glee ~ hence, the post title!

  1. Hi doll, the bf jeans look fantastic on you, the fit is really great, the baggier effect gives this look that cool laid back dressing-like-your-boyfriend appeal. The sweater is so cute too!

  2. F21 is pretty hit and miss - but I've found some great pieces there so I usually always give it a look. And, side note, I adore those shoes, the studs are awesome.

  23. Cute outfit! I saw those shoes too on Shoedazzle. I don't buy from them anymore unfortunately after having 2 shoes break on me :(
    I don't shop at Forever21 that much anymore either. I find that it gets too expensive to buy things constantly from there when it falls apart real easily.
    Plus I think we are just growing up! ;)

  26. Awww your little gif is so freckin cute and I love this outfit on you. A really great look, really into those Valentino dupes, so into it I may have to get a pair for myself. I think we all flip flop with Forever 21 but we can all admit there's a place for it.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Haha I love that you put yourself on a F21 ban - me too!! I went through the same thing: I was so over their clothes, and that horrible dressing room lighting that I just gave up...
    Although...
    I did find myself in there the other day, and i bought a belt (which has now disappeared..sign?)

    I love this outfit, and I love those shoes! At first I thought they were rockstuds.

    Great outfit - and I love that you got it from f21.

  32. I love your F21 buys. My fave is the sweater! And LOL that all the bloggers are adding collars to their sweaters. Great Valentino dupes! How fun is your lil gif at the end. Get down & boogie!

  33. cute outfit and those shoes look great dispite them being dupes, who has 900 bucks to spend on a pair of heels for fun these days!?

    ReplyDelete
  34. I love this post! So freakin cute! I can't believe those shoes are ShoeDazzle - when I first saw your post on FB I immediately thought they were Valentino's!!

    ReplyDelete
  35. I'm totally with with you about Forever 21, they've been on top of their game lately, but before I think a lot of their items were only okay. Anyway I love the jeans and sweater, and not to mention that amazing bag! you look great! :)

  36. Loving those shoes, they really are so pretty.
    I instantly knew I loved them when you posted it on one of the social networking sites (forgot which one now :P)

    Anyway, love how you wore it with the sweater!
