I know, I don't own jewelry by Forever21 but I do love the clothes, regardless.
I don't like the clothes either...when I first walked in there I was like OMG EVERYTHING IS SO CUTE! and I took like a bazillion things to the dressing room but then everything fit really bad or had those hidious puffed millitary-like sleeves
& plus a lot of the clothes just SCREAM Forever 21 ...the style of it. Like the thermals and printed scoop neck shirts.

I never liked there clothes until recently, I brought a shirtdress and I'm in love with it and how fits. The key is to shop around and don't over wear.
I don't get all this ranting about their jewelry. I've bought a lot of accessories there and they last because I take good care of them and I don't toss them around. You just have to be sensible about how you store it. You can't expect a cheap piece of jewelry to hold up if you toss it around a lot and drop it on the floor. You wouldn't do that with something you paid $500 for. If you don't want your cheap jewelry to break, don't take care of it as if it was disposable.
I have very very sensitive ears, too. Instead of replacing the hooks, you can paint over it in clear nail polish. It prevents the metal from touching your skin and making you irritated. You can do the same thing to the inside of a ring that turns your fingers green.
Actually, I have a cross from F21 I've worn a ton of times and I love it. It's still in perfect condition too, so I havne't had so much a problem with their jewlery falling apart.
I really like F21 stuff because some of it's quirky and suits my tastes in ways classic jewley doesn't always (like gothic-y crosses etc) or else I'm not willing to pay ridiculous sums for because they're so trendy.
On the other hand, I don't own too much of their clothing because meanwhile cute, there's so much that there's nothing that particularly stands out as LOVE And I tend to be more selective about clothing I love at places with so much stuf that's cute.

a lot of their stuff is really cute and fun for costume jewelry. But everything and i mean everything that I have gotten from there has broken within a few wears. I guess it's what to be expected when it's that cheap.
