I am fairly new to paypal and only have a savings account linked to my paypal. I was shopping on vans.com and i could easily pay using my bank account. However when shopping on forever21.com it would not give me the option to use my bank account and i had to add a credit card to my account in order to pay for it. Someone please explain why this happened

Some merchants require card funded paypal payments and sometimes paypal requires you to add a card as a back up funding source so that your payment does not go as an echeque.
