Get creative with what u do have, add patches, rhinestones, fabric paint, etc to some old jeans. Cut the legs of some jeans and make a skirt. There's much u can do with what u have. Be creative, it works for me, get alot of compliments too.

Have you ever tried Salvation Army (Salvey Armee`, the French Boutique) also Volunteers of America. You can get some great outfits there for a lot less than you would at the Mall.

Have you tried looking at second-hand shops? Where I live, I've noticed that there are many trendy-looking young people shopping at Goodwill and Value Village. One advantage is that you'll end up with a look that's almost guaranteed to be unique. Fifty dollars will go a long way in a second-hand shop.

Ebay offers some good deals, also Salvation Army & Goodwill have some real finds in there. You just have to go through all the junk to find them. Consignment shops and yard sales are an option as well.

thrifting is the way to go. i personally like goodwill. you really have to dig though look in both kids and adults sections. i've found many name brand items some new by shopping goodwill almost weekly: Hollister, A+F, Louis Vuitton (vintage), coach highheels, yeah you'd be surprised. garage sales are also amazing. check em out

try resale shops. you get current looks for a lot less!
Also, try Ebay! I got some great jeans for $2.19 (was under $10 with shipping) that would have sold for around $60 in the store!

Pilfer, loot, blackmail, cheat, defraud, whatever is neccesary to get the clothes you want. Clothes are essential to women.

you are gonna need to have more money...but go thrifting....that is what i have always done. you can sometimes find really nice vintage clothing for cheap because people are not aware what they are throwing away or what they are marking when it is donated.
