sears-style-sears-summer-clearance-looking-fly-on-a-dime-fitting-room-searsI love it when a retailer I've been sleeping on amazes me. That's exactly what happened when I went to Sears last week. I initially hit up Sears to see if they had any Kardashian Kollection pieces {the line's been discontinued}, but I didn't find any. However, I saw countless summer styles that I loved and even bought a few.If you haven't stepped foot in Sears in a while, you might change your mind after reading this.

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.
