Forever 21's Online Summer Fashion Finds for $5 and Under

Finding a killer fashion deal can be like looking for a needle in a haystack -- there are malls, outlets, boutiques, and online stores; tons of places to check to find that fashion gem at an affordable price. Forever 21 has always had a reputation of fun, trendy fashion at an affordable price, which is why I turn to them time and again when I want a great fashion buy that I can feel good about. If you've been looking to fill in the gaps in your summer wardrobe, look no further; here are Forever 21.com's current deals on women's summer fashion, all for $5 and under.

I've included one or two beauty products at the end since an outfit is never quite complete without the essential beauty accessories.

Fab Basic Knit Top

Price: $4.50

Color: White, grey, lime, purple, black, and orange

Size: Small, medium, and large

What wardrobe would be complete without at least a few light weight knit tees? This long v-neck top hits at waist length making it perfect for jeans and shorts. Stock up on several colors because you'll get tons of wear out of these 100% simple knit tops since they can be worn in fall/winter and spring/summer. Care for the Fab Basic Knit Top is simple: Machine wash normal, tumble dry low. Be sure to check out the other summer knit tops for $5 and under on Forever21.com

Fab Ribbed Tank

Price: $2.50

Colors: Yellow, hunter green, white, light pink, coral, and aqua

This 100% cotton lightweight knit is a priceless staple in any summer wardrobe. Wear casually paired with a pair of jean shorts or try underneath a blazer with a cute skirt or pair of jeans and heels for a slightly more formal look. This tank is a wardrobe essential beneficial to have in an assortment of colors, and you can afford to buy several because these tanks only cost you $2.50; you just can't beat that. The bonus is that these can be machine washed in cold water and hung over a drying rack to dry.

Simple Ribbed Tank

Price: $2.50

Colors: Hot pink, red, yellow, royal (blue), aqua, white, heather grey, and black

Very similar to the Fab Ribbed Tank, the Simple Ribbed Tank offers a scoop neck and fitted construction. Machine washable in cold water, hang to dry.

Fab Ribbed Cami

Price: $2.50

Colors: Black, olive, and green

A scoop necked, ribbed cami, perfect for layering under other tanks and tees for a casual look; or paired with a summer scarf, blazer and fedora for an edgy look; or with a cardigan and set of pearls for a classic feminine look. This 100% cotton cami is also easy to maintain, like the other two tanks listed above, the cami can be machine washed in cold water and hung out to dry.

Fab Solid V-Neck Cami

Price: $2.50

Colors: White, peach, lavender, light blue, mint, khaki, heather grey, light pink, light green, and light yellow

The Fab Solid V-Neck Cami is my favorite of the $2.50 fashion deals on Forever 21.com. This spaghetti strap cami is elegant and casual at the same time; wear it alone or layered with other Forever 21 tanks. Made of 95% cotton and 5% elastane, the Fab Solid V-Neck Cami has an extra bit of stretch and snug fit that the others don't. Machine wash cold and lay flat to dry.

Wide Woven Belt

Price: $4.50

Color: Red

Size: SM and ML

Woven patterned belt with large round buckle and antique gold accent hardware. Wear this belt with jeans, shorts, or as a waist cincher with a light weight flowing summer dress.

Another Wide Woven Belt

Price: $3.50

Color: Black and natural

This is my favorite of the two Wide Woven Belts. This 3" wide belt contains a sliding hook closure, perfect for dresses.

Sequin Ballet Flats

Price: $4.99 (Originally priced at $10.50, now available for $4.99).

Colors: Blue and purple.

The Sequin Ballet Flat has a ¼" heel and is lined with faux leather on the inside and as an accent bow on the toe. This shoe is a great buy for pre-teens and teens. If you've got a daughter, give this shoe a quick look; it would work well with jeans, dresses, and skirts depending on color and pattern.

Fab Braided Headbands

Price: $2.50

Colors: Black/black, silver/black, and gold/black

Skinny .2" wide plastic headbands, ornamented lengthwise with a braid design, comes in set of two. The Fab Braided Headband works for all ages and is a much better deal than what you're likely to find by Goody in the local grocery or drugstores.

Single Eye Shadow

Price: $1.50

Color: Pink and black

The single eye shadow contains a touch of shimmer and the two colors can be combined together for a smokey evening look or worn separately for a day look and night look. The pink could also be worn as a highlighting/accent color to the black. This is most likely an item more appropriate for a pre-teen or teen, provided she is allowed to wear make-up at that age.

Tri Color Ankle Sock Set

Price: $3.50

Color: Cream/light blue, black/cream, red/yellow

Ankle socks are a summer must-have for casual outfits worn with tennis shoes. For a pack of three for $3.50, you can't pass this one up; it's hard to match that price anywhere else. While you're at it, you may want to grab the Forever 21 3-Pack Ankle Bright Socks for $4.80, check Forever 21.com for available colors.

Body Shimmer

Price: $3.50

Color: Silver and Pink

Most summer outfits can be polished and accessorized by sweeping on a body shimmer like this available at Forever 21. The Body Shimmer is conveniently built inside the handle of a large wide brush; just shake and apply all over the body with the brush. No mess or fuss, couldn't be easier.

Please be sure to check out the$5 and under deals at Forever21.com yourself because I couldn't possibly list all of the items they have available at this amazing low price. I hope you find some items you need and a few you just want to fill in your spring/summer wardrobe.

Happy shopping to you all!
