Word of advice, never shop at Hollister. The clothes are cheap, they rip easy, and they're just downright ho-bag clothes for the most part. Abercrombie is much too expensive. American Eagle is pretty durable, and decent priced. You can get a couple outfits from there (Go with shirts only, pants are expensive and can be bought pretty much anywhere) and shop at Macys/Filenes or even JCPenny's has cool clothes.
If you want to be original, go with Delias.. there might not be one near you so www.delias.com or alloys and they also have a website.
Please do yourself a favor and don't buy clothes that are 10x too small for you or clothes that is so lowcut you're half a centimeter away from flashing the world. You don't want to be known as a s.lut, especially in high school. Be comfortable with yourself, you don't have to show off your bod to anyone.

welll preppy in my school means abercrombie&Fitch or Hollister
Hollister is cheaper with a cheap shirt costing around 20 dollars
im sure in junior high unless you live in an extremely fashion conscience you do not have to worry about buying high end designers like Ralph Lauren or Lacoste
if hollister and abercrombie are too expensive still....
what i do is go to resale shops... if you search to see if a Buffalo Exchange is near your are go there and buy abercrombie and hollister polos and jeans for 10 dollars (I just bought a brand new lacoste polo for 15 dollars last week :)
if you don't like the idea of used clothes i also suggest nordstrom rack....loeman's next (spelling?) ...Old Navy...Target..even Walmart

Have you tried Ebay?
LOTS of closeouts sold in mass quantities to people, that sell them for a penny on the dollar on there.
BE careful of shipping and handling charges as many times, they are more than going shopping.
Also - as a suggestion. Purchase items from larger name brands that carry a level of prestige with them for a long time. For men for example, Polo/Nautica wear nicely, they fit nice, the look nice after a long time and many washing instead of looking like a welfare store hand me down after 1 year. Not to mention, their designers are a bit better at coming out with things that remain in style for years to come.
If you are looking for school uniforms. They all seem to be expensive. You have to check with your school for acceptable places to purchase as many have stipulations that you MUST purchase a certain brand and certain styles for each grade. Don't waste your money purchasing high school outfits if you can only pick JH outfirst for example.
If you don't have a school uniform or are just looking for general street clothes, follow my advice on top.
ALSO - DO NOT purchase from websites (other than ebay) that you do not recognize the name from them having a store front in reality. Unless they are nationally recognized and send out magazine, ads etc. There are a MILLION fly by night websites that DO NOT deliver their product. If you goto a site that has known advertising in newspapers or their own catalog, you can usually rest assure they are a decent sized company doing this for a living instead of some guy in his basement that found a box of clothes that fell off the back of a truck in New York.
GL!

Popular places around here (and mostly everywhere in America, actually) are Abercrombie, Hollister, American Eagle, Aeropostale, etc. You can't really get good, popular, high-quality outfits for cheap unless you're really lucky and come across something. Good luck, and have a nice week!

it's beyond me why anyone would WANT to dress preppy.
i'm a sevvie
and i dont have any problems with bein' a punk
but whateverr
alot of my friends go to abercrombie
but that's just rediculous cuz u can spend as much as $90 on just a pair of basic jeans
while at hot topic i swear the most expensive pair of jeans is prolly $40
some of my friends agree
so they shop at JCPenney
or even kohl's is pretty good

Target, or Justice for Girls. Both have great clothes at good prices. You will be able to find preppy otfit clothes at either of these two stores.
