On this week's episode, Emily talks about the trends that you should worry about and the ones you should probably skip out on!

1. Knockoffs and using other brands logos, patterns and names. Stay out of legal trouble and avoid copyright infringement by avoiding buying these items.

2. Growing through too many giveaways. It diminishes your brand and can also attract an "un-ideal" customer.

3. Overbuying and thinking you need new arrivals ALL THE TIME. The truth is you don't - you need new arrivals in accordance with how you're selling.
