Shibuya Mon Amour @ Forever 21 | cheap and chic tees & tanks from Jeannie Lee

Are all the kids in Tokyo and Paris cool? Apparently so, according to Shibuya Mon Amour, a new line of graphic tees and tanks at Forever 21 that are "inspired by the cool kids of Tokyo and Paris." True, Shibuya is the name of a Tokyo neighbourhood where the cool kids shop and hang out. Oh, by the way, love how the name of the line takes a nod from the classic black and white romance, Hiroshima Mon Amour.

Shibuya Mon Amour is designed by Jeannie Lee, the owner of Satine, the uber-hip L.A. boutique (P.S: Satine's shoe collection is worth salivating over). Lee has also designed a lingerie line for pretty Anthropologie, and the uniforms for the boutique-hotel Palihouse. Luckily, Lee's Shibuya Mon Amour, exclusive to Forever 21, is inexpensive (price point from $13.80 to $17.80) -- unlike Satine's brands of Lanvin, Chloe, Alexander Wang, Tsumori Chisato -- and "girly, street, punk and fashion" so "live it, love it, Shibuya Mon Amour." Hey, the copywriters came up with that one.
