NYC Series: Century 21

Shopping at Century 21 is like entering a wolf's den with dripping steaks. Shop at your own risk!

That aside, if you are into fantastic deals in a crazy, 'must-grab-everything' atmosphere, it is an amazing place to shop. I loved shopping there but after, I was like, woah...I don't want to go back! It is definitely a once a year type of deal. Their slogan is ''fashion worth fighting for'' and they're really not kidding.

It is a big building, first floor is mens/cosmetics/sunglasses/wallets, basement is housewares/gifts, 2nd floor is women's and 3rd floor is women's. We spent a lot of time on the 2nd and 3rd floor, and here's what we bought.

Tulle brand poplin jacket for $30.00
Tulle brand shirt dress in plaid for $16.99
Roxy brand flip flops for $6.97
Seven jeans for $40
Seven jeans for $40
Godiva chocolate coffee for $7.99
''Jeggings'' jean leggings for $6.99 (sidenote: looked absolutely terrible on me, gave them to my sister. Not meant for short people with muscular legs.)

And thanks to my dear Aunt, who financed a bit of this shopping extravaganza with a cool $100.00. Thanks! Much appreciated!

Futher observations: First floor is a freaking zoo. Changing rooms also. Bring a mom to hold your clothes, you will need her, she can also stand in line for you at the changing rooms, as the lineups are legendary. Be aware that you can only bring in 8 items at the changing room, and there aren't doors, just blousy curtains that tend to blow open when a customer walks by, therefore exposing your bare ass stuck getting out of a pair of 'skinny jeans' for all the world to see. I was seriously sweating coming out of the changerooms.

Happy Shopping!
