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: Rocksbox jewelry subscription
Why: The market is ridiculously cluttered with monthly subscription boxes for pretty much anything imaginable. However, Rocksbox leads the way with affordable, statement making accessories for less than $20/month. It's the Netflix of jewelry!

dime-find-of-the-week-poppin-office-supplies-stylish-planner-affordable-day-plannerWhat: Poppin stationery and desk accessories
Why: Who doesn't love stationery? No seriously, besides thrift shopping, my most enjoyable addiction is shopping for new notebooks. I actually had to put myself on hiatus and stop buying cute notebooks and planners from TJ Maxx.
But my hiatus might be up since I found out about Poppin. The brand features tons of colorful notebooks, planners and pads that start at less than $10.
