fashion-hacks-cheap-fashio-fast-fashion-tips Shopping at "cheap" retailers like Strawberry, Rainbow, Forever 21, Family Dollar {yes, Family Dollar}, H&M, Target, etc. can be a bit tricky. The clothes are really affordable but the quality isn't always superior. Retailers cut corners to offer the garments at such wallet-friendly prices, so the colors might not be as bright, the fit might be a little off and embellishments start falling off before you know it.
However, it's all about knowing what to buy and what to pass on when shopping at cheap retail stores.

What's In Store: Joyce Leslie

This weekend I went shopping with my cousin since she wanted to find an outfit for an 80s pool party, so we naturally went to Joyce Leslie. The affordable fashion retailer is a staple on the East Coast. Until this weekend, I hadn't stepped foot in one of the stores in years, but as an undergrad, I shopped at Joyce Leslie at least every other week when I wanted a cute $20 dress. Though quite a few of the clothes were adorable, I also saw some major misses.
Check out what I found at Joyce Leslie, plus quick tips on what to look for and avoid when shopping at a "cheap" clothing store.
