Forever21... don't lie... we all shop there -- for a last minute, wear one-time because it either is cheap and falls apart or because it's only worthy to wear once and is too trendy and snaps out of style with the snap of your fingers, or really if you can't afford high fashion or even higher price points, it's a simple alternative aka knock off heaven. Regardless, any reasoning, if you are a good shopper you will definitely go through their racks and find some amazing deals and/or designer look alikes. But Forever 21 has been pushing it to the limit as of late. Gwen Stefani is sueing retail giant Forever21 for trademark infringement. Stefani's lawsuit states that Forever21 used the same Harujuku Lovers all over print logo design, and just changed "Harajuku" to "Forever" and "Lovers" to "Love". Though this isn't the first time they've been in trouble over copying rights. Back in March this year, Diane Von Furstenburg sued them for reusing of her designs as well. Honestly, there is a big gap and difference between biting/copying and inspiration, but not everyone can afford high-end couture but who really wants to rock a Forever 21/Harujuku Lovers knock off, unless Forever21 is hot in your hood... but I think not.

Lately though, Forever21 has been doing a good job of knocking off Marc Jacobs. Is that a good or bad thing for our pockets?
