What can I get for $150 for back to school shopping??

Question

I need jeans, tees, awesome shoes, makeup, and jewelry. I didn't have a good rep last year, and i want to make a BIG immpression.

Answer 1

$150 isn't alot, to be honest.

Anyways, here are a few suggestions as to what you should get for this school year. I think you shouldn't spend it all at once because you might see something you like later on so who knows?

Shop at Forever 21 because they have really cute tops and are cheap as well. Get about 4 or 5 cute tops, 4 tank tops to mix and match, 2 skirts, 4 pairs of jeans, ect...Check out Target, Ross, Walmart, Mervyns as well.

As for jewelry, get some at Claires. I absolutely love earrings so you might want to buy a few pairs there. There are some cute ones at Forever 21 and Mervyns, too.

You should get makeup at a drugstore or Walmart because they're absolutely cheap there. Get some nice mascara like Max Factor 2000 Calories, foundation from Cover Girl or Almay, eyeliner from Revlon, and some lip gloss from Maybelline. Those are the basics that you want to get. If you have great skin, skip foundation.

There are also other things you might want to consider like getting a backpack or tote, some cleansers/moisturizers, school supplies, ect...

Be friendly and confident and people will see you in a different way.

Hope that was helpful!

OMG The only way youll make everyone brake their necks to see what you are wearing is by becoming a famous celeb or going to school naked on the first day. Just buy clothes from ross marshalls, or go to cleareance racks at the mall. Or forever 21. they have some cute and cheap clothes there that you can find. But unless you had a really bad rep where everyone knew who you were, and made fun of you things cool have cooled off by then, then youll be fine. in high school things blow over really quick trust me

Answer 3

People start at the top when they look at you, so get some flattering Ts, [ in colors that look good on you, not just 'hot' colors ] and a new bag, first.
Makeup and jewelry can be collected little by little, with allowance or baby sitting money.
Ask Mom or Dad if they can spring for two pairs of jeans - buy ones that flatter YOUR shape, not just 'hot' ones.
Shoes come last - maybe your feet grew?

Answer 4

Buy the clothes that you like. $150 is not going to get you very far. Go to the outlett malls and shop on the clearance racks. Buy a few high priced items that will blend into your wardrobe.. Good luck!
