text: Love Love Love forever 21 \n It was the official grand opening in the Fashion Show mall in Las Vegas July 24, 2010.\n\nOMG, WOW, Overwhelming, enormous and massive are words that come to mind. Did I say gargantuan?\n\nThe new location is 2 levels and 124,000 sq feet and not crowded. Except for the crowds of customers shopping.\n\nThey did a tremendous job, the store looks impressive!\n\nStarting with the visuals - the windows were dazzling and all the displays and mannequins thru out the store were brilliant. Lots of glitter and gold! If mannequins could talk they were shouting \"buy me\", \"be me\", \"stare at me\"!\n\nThe layout of the store is easy to shop they have all their different labels divided into sections. Sort of like stores within a store. Be sure to check out the new Kids section. T\n\nhey now carry Men's, maternity, faith 21[extended sizes] at this location. As well as the usual Heritage [vintage], love 21, twelve by twelve [couture line] and they have a shoe + accessories section.\n\nDon't worry about waiting for a change room; they have one in every corner of the store. With lots of rooms in each one. All the change rooms have mirrors inside and hooks to hang up your 6 room limit. Lots of friendly staff hanging outside the change rooms trying to hang up the clothes you don't want to put back on the racks. I felt a little bad for them they literally had heaps on the floor to hang up and put back on the already overflowing  go back racks.\n\nTip #1. Best place to shop is the go back racks\n\nTip #2. If you couldn't find something you were looking for keep looking or go back the next day because it could materialize.\n\nTip # 3. Set aside a minimum of 3 hours- you will need this time to walk thru and peruse .\n\nTip #4. Why waste  valuable shopping time  Take it home and try it on. Please see store policy below.\n\nFacts + Quotes ,As I was told by the staff\n\n1.     Question. How large is this store?

Merchandise must be unwashed, unworn and undamaged for exchange or store credit. Sale merchandise and  jewelry are all FINAL sale and cannot be returned for exchange or store credit. Unless required by law, store credit and gift card are not redeemable for cash or transferable and cannot be replaced if lost or stolen. There are NO cash refunds or credit back to credit/debit cards. [ This is what it states on the receipt]. I wish the policy was 21 days for exchange or refund. It would be easier to shop for clients and take stuff home on approval instead of getting stuck with a gift card.\n\nNote: square foot age and facts by staff could possibly be inaccurate. \n\nJoey Garr http://www.vegaspersonalshopper.com/forever-21-store-review/
