Really now, who thought Forever21 was going to stop its copy-cat ways after the DVF drama went down? (Check out the scoop on that drama over at Catwalk Queen!) Now, America's favorite trendy clothing depot turns its sights on the Coco Chanel resin bangle... which, in turn, allegedly stole the design from one Jessica Kagan Cushman, a talented indie designer. Still with me? After a huge surge of Cushman-loyalist uproar in response to the $600 Chanel version of Cushman's $125 mammoth tusk and scrimshaw bangle, Cushman has one last laugh. (See Cushman's new 'Ripped off by Chanel' bracelet and the Chanel version side by side here!) And... I guess Forever21 couldn't wait to join the fun. Have yours too, for $5.80.

    Hi there!



    Most of the bangles are one of a kind! As you can see on the Barneys site (below) you do not choose the phrases on your scrimshaw piece. Here are some available through Ravinstyle, which cost $125! (also below) You have some control over which bracelet you like best :) Enjoy!
