you have a week to do odd-jobs such as grass cutting or maybe help old people around the house. You can easily build up at least 200-300 dollars if your activly seeking work that way. After that go to your local thrift store and browse away, you can find deals on items for astronomically low prices. Maybe even buy a whole new wardrobe. This method wont get you gucci or anything but it will put clothes on your back.

you dont say what grade level; college, technical school, high school, middle school. I'm assuming its high school or middle school because hey, at college it is wear what you have. You're there to learn, not style.
If HS or MS, try giving school a call and ask if they have any programs that assist with school clothes. Most school districts have something: a clothing pantry, ability to get vouchers to purchase school clothes (usually thru guidance counselor or main school district office). Some may have a program to distribute donated clothes.
Start by asking the school and the school district. And hopefully someone there will point you in the right direction.
Good luck.

Sherry start by trying to do jobs for people and earn some money dog walking, baby sitting, do someones shopping who is not able to get out to the shops them selves, when you have started that then go on eBay you can get some great clothes off there for next to nothing.

Well, if you still live with your parents, I'm going to make the assumption that they will probably be buying them for you, But, if you don't, and your away at college, then I suggest getting a job real fast.
