It's a tale as old as time: spending a lot of money on holiday dresses, only to wear them once. But this time around, I won't fall trap to this costly habit, because I'm buying my pieces from Forever 21. The trusty retailer has luxe, affordable products (I'm talking $10) that I'll want to wear beyond party season. (Plus, the items are so chic, they look way more expensive than they actually are.) Keep scrolling to see what I'm talking about.
