Item of the Week


Since we were all little girls we've loved bows. Pink bows, red bows, polka dotted bows, all kinds of bows. Well luckily for the little girl inside all of us, bows for fall are on the range. And why not reinvent the way we wear them, by wearing them on our clothes? Im all for it. You can toss this bowified beauty into your Big Brown bag at www.forever21.com
