The WTForever 21 is one of the best sites I've seen in a while.

The site, which mocks the designs from the [fast fashion retail chain store](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coachtopia-1), flaunts some of Forever 21's [ugliest designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks) and adds commentary. With descriptions such as, "Just look at it. Artifically shiny. Bloated. Blissfully unaware of its own trainwreck-ishness. Plus, I’m pretty certain it is the exact color of Tiger’s Blood. Forever 21, I’m bi-winning. I win here and I win there. Now WTF?"

The WTForever 21 blog truly says what most Forever 21 shoppers are thinking while looking online. The [unflattering fits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asos-inspired-by) to the just plain ugly, the WTForever 21 is truly a great way to kill some time and have a little laugh while doing it.
