Cloud 10 Status: Forever 21 Is Coming to Ottawa


So I just got paid and I really had to suppress my inner hoodrat from gallivanting and doing HOOD RAT things, but I still engaged in some retail therapy at the Rideau Center anyway; as I made my way through I saw a HUGE line-up with a sign saying INTERVIEWS TODAY! I walk closer and realize that Forever 21 is opening on the first floor of the Rideau Center! I've been wondering for a while what they were going to replace the old 2nd Food Court with.

The store will comprise two levels encompassing 16, 000 square feet, complete with an in-store escalator. There will be three entrances: one on the first floor, one on the second floor, and direct entry from Rideau Street. 

Forever 21 is a junior ladies’ retailer known for its “ripped-from-the-runway” fashion. Like competitors Zara and H&M, Forever 21 sells low-cost clothing that it produces quickly enough to keep up to date with runway fashion trends. 

Although Forever 21 predominantly focuses on ladies clothing, it also carries a large accessories line, shoes, and some menswear. The U.S.-based company’s Canadian flagship store opened in Toronto about three years ago, and the chain has been rapidly expanding ever since. 

Why does this matter, well for me I could not muster up a fully functioning F**K if I tried my hardest and wished upon a star.  Ironically I just learned today that Forever 21 sells clothing for men too..:/ but I decided I would share this news with all the adoring Forever 21 fans out there.  Although MOST (Read: ALL OF YOU) are way past 21 I guess since you love the store so much its only fair to share the good news! 

OH AND THEY'RE HIRING!! GO OUT TODAY IF YOU HAVE SOME TIME!! 


Will you be shopping there Ottawa residents?  Are you excited?
