Forever 21 has burst onto the Black Friday shopping scene with its 40%-70% off sitewide sale, which is already live. The mega-fast-fashion retailer has more than 540 locations globally and a strong online presence, with a flock of Instagram followers exceeding 14.2 million.
Given Forever 21’s popularity — particularly among younger generations who may not have much wealth — the news of the retailer’s super sale could be a little gift in itself. If you’re searching for the perfect holiday outfit, you’d better check out Forever 21’s offerings. Your search might end there.

Here are 10 of the best holiday outfits under $50 at Forever 21.
Christmas Tree Hoodie
You will win both the ugly Christmas party sweater and the entire holiday season with the Christmas Tree Pajama Zip-Up Hoodie on sale for $26.99, down from $44.99. Note that this is distinguished as a “pajama” item. It certainly looks cozy enough to wear to bed, but, thanks largely to the zipper, it is suitable to wear outdoors, too.
‘Elf’ Sweater
Do you have a sense of humor, a love of the movie “Elf” and some serious holiday cheer to share? You’ll want to check out the Elf Son of a Nutcracker Sweater at Forever 21. It’s on sale for $26.99, down from $44.99.
Satin Double-Breasted Blazer
You can swiftly and effectively turn even the most basic jeans and tee outfit into a holiday fashion miracle with this Satin Double-Breasted Blazer, available in green, egret, black and red. It’s on sale for $23.99 down from $39.99.
Sequin Double-Breasted Blazer
If you’re looking for a statement blazer that is arguably even bolder than the satin options above and have more money to spend, consider the Sequin Double-Breasted Blazer on sale for $35.99, down from $59.99.
Sequin Mini Dress
Turn heads in the Sequin Surplice Mini Dress, a woven mini dress with a cinched waist, a bodycon fit, and sequin embellishments. It’s available in black or gold and is on sale for $23.99, down from $39.99.
Sequin Santa Baby T-Shirt Dress
The t-shirt dress style that was a hit in the ’90s is back with a bang. Get sparkly in honor of Jolly Old St. Nick in this Sequin Santa Baby T-Shirt Dress which comes in bright red with white font that reads, “Santa Baby.” It sells at Forever 21 for $23.99, marked down from $39.99.
Sequin Wide-Leg Jumpsuit
Not that into dresses but want to look dressy? Look no further than this black Plus Size Sequin Wide-Leg Jumpsuit on sale for $41.99, down from $69.99. If this is a little too blingy or pricey for you, you might want to check out this more affordable option: the Plus Size Satin Cargo Jumpsuit in black on sale for $20, down from $49.99.
Black Velvet Bow Maxi Dress
If you’re on the hunt for an outfit that will be suitable for a more formal holiday party, such as a black-tie event, this is a great and pretty affordable option: the Velvet Bow Maxi Dress is on sale at Forever 21 for $29.99, down from $49.99. This is a stunning and classic evening gown that should last you years if you take care of it.
Decorated Christmas Tree Dress
This is possibly our favorite item on this list because it achieves an incredible feat: managing to be both campy in a shockingly extreme way, while still being, frankly, really cute. If you’re crazy for Christmas, you’ll love the Decorated Christmas Tree Dress at Forever 21, on sale for $25.00, down from $69.99. Best of all? You can wear it next Halloween, too, and likely be the only person at the Halloween party dressed as a Christmas tree.
Light-Up Christmas Tree Headband
Now, if you don’t want to go so far as to buy a whole holiday outfit – and you certainly don’t want to go so far as to don a Christmas tree dress, you can get away with a simple accessory, provided it makes as bold a statement as this Light-Up Christmas Tree Headband, on sale at Forever 21 for $5.99, down from $9.99.
