Decor  on a Dime- H&M Home CollectionWhen you think of H&M, what usually comes to mind? Typically it's affordable fashion or the occasional designer collection and I love them for their statement necklaces.

But what about the H&M home collection? It debuted in the U.S. late last summer when H&M's e-commerce site launched but it's not available in many stores.
However, the new Fifth Ave flagship H&M just opened and it has an entire floor dedicated to the home line. This was my first time seeing the home decor up close and personal and it did not disappoint.

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.

Dime Find of the Week, affordable handbag of the seaon
What: Forever 21 Satchel
Why: Every woman needs that one {or several!} satchel for day to night. It's large enough to fit your essentials, and it's not too bulky for a night out. While I'm pretty much obsessed with Forever 21 skinny jeans because they stand the test of time and don't get the dreaded crotch rip, the affordable retailer also has some amazing satchels for the season. If there's one bag you want to buy now and carry it through fall and winter, this is it. Oh, and you won't spend more than 30 bucks.
