1. The first Forever 21 opened in Tokyo this week, drawing a crowd of 1500, with the first people arriving to stand in line at 11:30 the night before. FYI to those overnighters: you could have shopped the website from the comfort of your own beds. [WWD]
2. Several women have admitted to developing an addiction to sample sale site, Gilt Groupe, because it offers heavily discounted designer items. We're certainly not helping the cause with our daily updates of what's on the site. [TheDailyBeast via Racked]
3. More celebs have been revealed for Monday's Met Ball including Kirsten Dunst who will wear Chanel Jewelry, and Anne Hathaway who will show up in Cartier. Maybe she'll don those bright red Jee Vices as well (probably not). [FWD]
4. MTV is creating a reality show about fashion stylists who compete for an agency contract. We think it'd be more interesting to fight over a spot under whacko Zoe. [ShoppingBlog]
