Sometimes, you can’t afford that adorable skirt featured in the magazine. Or at other times, you’re pretty sure that the coat you’ve been eyeing will cost a small fortune. But here are some tips for you.
- Bargains, Garage Sales, Antique Shops and Second-hand Stores.
These are all wonderful places to get the clothes you’ve wanted. Sure, they may be second-hand but there are still clothes here that may impress you. Over the years, I have acquired authentic designer fashions from these places. These places also sell a lot of cute accessories.- Improvising
If you can’t afford it, you may want to consider having look-alikes of the clothes you desire. They may not be the real thing, yet these are also great.

Thrift shopping is a great way to save money on clothes and accessories!

GOODWILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1 time i found a brand new looking t-shirt from Justice!accutally 2 shirts and shorts!!!!!!!! ♥
Ok I’m going to enter them in the design competition this week
I don’t really get clothes from stores. I make my own clothes. I want to be a fashion designer when I get older. My friends always ask me where I got my clothes and I say “sorry u can’t get anywhere else it’s a dezique product.” They ask me what is dezique. Well dezique is my clothing brand name. It’s a mixture of my name (Desire’) and unique because it’s MY style and thanks to fp Danielle I’m confident about my designs and social problems!!!!! If u have any questions just ask it but say my name too!!!!! Luv ya !!!!!

The other (new) way: ♥
Cool! I think that might only work on PCs

One way to improvise is to make what you want out of what you have. For example, let’s say you see a dress that you absolutely need! It’s got a gorgeous black top and a gold sequined skirt, and a hot pink belt to tie it all together. It’s modest, it’s beautiful, it’s perfect and… It’s 125$.
You decide not to buy it and run home to your closet. How can you recreate this gorgeous look? Out comes the dress you bought last year. The skirt is too short, but the top still fits great… and it’s almost identical to the top of the dress you so badly want. Next you find the silver skirt you wore at the grade six graduation. It’s kind of like the one on that dress! All you need now is that hot pink belt. You don’t have a hot pink belt, but you find that the thriftstore has the perfect one. You rush home to try it all on. Perfect, just like the one in the store!
the ♥ thing is cool
but it didnt work
actually it did thats really cool
when did everyone get intreadstead in hearts and stuff????????
I m embarrassed I cant make a heart
& hearts ;
Hi powerof3! Try typing the same thing without any spaces! ♥
Thanks ♥
Now I can do it
This is a really cool posti actually want to be a fashion designer and sometimes I make my own clothes but other times I just love thrift shops
do a biz i do lol!!!
Well I, not to brag, am rich and can buy pretty much anything, but I’m not going to go talking on and on about that, because that would be bragging. But I think secondhand stores are a great idea because lots of my friends who are not as forteaunate get authentic designer clothes there, just like Isa said!

lucky I cant even afford a pair of jordans it takes a really long time
Good. Because I want to be economical. I’m a saver.
Maybe you could sew your own clothes, then
you won’t have to spend too much money!
Am I not brilliant?
I love that! If you take an old shirt that is too small and a skirt that is the same and sew them together you have an brand new dress!
Cool! I’ve been saving for a trip to the mall, and will probably go soon…..FPGirls I need your help! Here’s my question: what type of clothing is in style and trendy right now, that I should buy if I see it? PLEASE comment SOON- I want to be prepared! Thanks sooo much!!!!!!

I am yellowhair I just changed my username.
If i go to Cato and find something that I really like but cannot afford then I just wait until it goes on clearance and then buy it. I LOVE going to America’s Thrift Store and Goodwill. They are both great places to shop.
Later,

This is the day that the Lord has made. Rejoyce and be glad in it.

You can make a heart by typing this & hearts ;
But take out the spaces in between the word and the punctuation! ♥
$hearts;

It didn’t work for me
Oops! Try using an ampersand instead of a dollar sign! & instead of $
So it’s & hearts ; ♥

;hearts

I ♥ this! A great place 2 go is Plato’s closet. They only take name brand juniors clothes, that are gently used, and if anything is more than 2 seasons out of style, they don’t take it. This is how u know ur getting current cute like brand new clothes for barely anything.
Great tips! You could also try to make your own! Thanks! - sparklynails
