Confession time: I don't use a cart when I go shopping. Let me clarify: if I have a strict budget, I don't grab a cart when shopping for clothes. Instead, I hold everything in my hand or one of those little hand carts, but never the one on wheels}.This has saved me major time and money and if you tend to suffer from buyer's remorse, it can help you too! 
Last night I whipped out a head to toe thrifted look for a Fourth of July rooftop party and I also utilized one of my go-to styling hacks.I converted a bodycon dress into a top! I've been doing this for years and if you're looking for the perfect fitted shirt, here's how you can do it, too! 
I admit it, I'm lazy. Well, when it comes to having clothes tailored, I'm lazy. I have the best intentions of getting something tailored and I just never end up doing it. Am I the only one??That's why I found a way to instantly hem a dress by a few inches without making a visit to the tailor. Check out the short video below to see how you can do the same! This is perfect if you're in a pinch or like me, and rarely use a tailor.

I have a confession. I love cheap costume jewelry, especially in the summer. There's nothing better than buying a pair of cute earrings, rings or bangles from a quick fashion store or an NYC street vendor. However, sometimes the jewelry just screams costume and cheap.
