Cubicle Chic- what-to-wear-to-work-summer-rain

Dressing in rainy weather can be tricky, but during the summer it's particularly stressful. Sometimes it’s a cool rain and you might have to break out a sweater. Other days it’s hot, humid and you break out in a sweat. And sometimes you get caught in a soaking, flash thunderstorm that your weather app didn't warn you about… Ok, so that last one might just be a “me” problem. Anyway, this week’s Cubicle Chic focuses on how to dress for a rainy, summer day.If you've ever struggled with what to wear when it's hot and raining, check out the outfit ideas below. From cute umbrellas to dainy rain boots, you'll have no problem getting dressed on a rainy day.

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.

What's in Store at Payless, summer accessories

I haven't been to Payless in what seems like forever. And why would I, I'm still going strong with Thrifty Threads 365. However, I was out with my cousin and she wanted to pop into the affordable shoe chain to find some sandals. While she was browsing, I was focused on the prices because in the past I remember being amazed at a $60 price tag for one of the designer collaboration shoes. I mean, it's Payless, is anyone really going to pay that much?!
Luckily on this visit, I wasn't dumbfounded by the prices and I saw a few cute shoes and accessories for summer.
