On a tight budget this summer for clothes? Want to get new summer trends but aren't ready to spend 30 dollars for that cute shirt at Forever 21? Then I have some solutions for you!
1. Thift shops. These aren't my personal pick, I don't really enjoy the idea of wearing some else's clothes, but then again, I'm not normal. You can find some really cute clothes there, and you can find branded stuff that teens wear (Forever 21, Hollister, A&F, American Eage, etc.) for a great price.
2. TJ Maxx and Marshall's. Love. These. Stores. Marshall's organizes their store by short sleeve, long sleeve, tank tops, etc. It makes it much easier to shop and find exactly what you are looking for. Plus, you can find designer brands and some adorable shoes and clothes that are just perfect for your closet.
3. Sales. How many summer sales are there? A ton. There are always so many options. Like a super cute bikini at American Eagle but not ready to spend like 35 dollars on it? Wait for it to come on sale, and buy it for 20 or 15.
4. Which mall? Actually, not many people know, but different malls have different prices. If there is a huge mall and there is always a huge number of people, the clothes will be super expensive, because so many people will buy them. A large mall, with not much business will have more promotional sales to get people coming to them. This really makes a huge price difference. Also, they would have more options because not all the clothes are picked through.
5. The classic DIY. Old clothes that are just too small? Try to cut off pieces of fabric and salvage them (with parents permission). Also, have a boring pair of shorts that are white? Try painting them with fabric or acrylic paint to help add some color and uniqueness to them, instead of buying those adorable 25 dollar ombré shorts, just look up how to make them on google and get started!
