I want top spend $30 on some new clothes, so the cheaper the better. Just let me know what you guys have. I'm in highschool, and trying to dress better, so I'm not looking for A&F or Hollister. I'd really like one of the H&M striped hoodies too. I'm also interested in belts and shoes if your selling for cheap. thanks alot!

$30 won't buy you more than maybe 1 really cheap thing. The h&m striped hoodies will run you about $50. That's what forum sellers and ebay sellers usually get for em'. Your best option is to thrift. You can find decent pieces from thrifting if you look hard enough. Sometimes you can find stuff that fits you great as they might be old designer pieces. If something is just slightly off fit wise you might be able to have your mom, sister or grandma tailor it for you or show you how to do it. A lot of people here and sufu tailor their clothes. Hit up every thrift store within 20 miles of you and you'll make $30 go a lot farther than half the cost of a overated h&m hoodie. If you're too lazy to thrift(it's seriously a good idea, look at cheapmutha who does it and looks great) you can buy american apparel pieces on this forum at wholesale prices. You could get a hoodie and a tshirt for $30 or a polo and a henley. They generally fit slim and somewhat fashionable. http://www.styleforum.net/showthread.php?t=23942 You know, you will have to do most the work for yourself. Try ebay's vintage clothing section, wait around here for deals, or look other places. edit: I have some shirts and pants from Express that i don't wear much anymore that i could package to you for $30-40 if you're about my size. They're not high end fashion, but definitely a step up from a&e, hollister and aeropostale. Express is probably the only mall brand store that gets love around here and can sometimes be pretty fashionable although a definite step down from designer stuff. The stuff is usually overpriced for the quality in the store, but i could sell it cheap if you're interested. I have a bit more money to buy the good stuff now, so i don't wear my express things from a few years ago that much. If you're a medium to large, i could definitely package a bunch of stuff to sell to you that look pretty fashionable. Graphic tshirt, polo shirts, maybe a pair of slim fit khaki pants, button up shirts, maybe a sweater or pants, i'd have to look. I'd like to get rid of the stuff for some change as i'm way too lazy to list all the stuff on ebay.

I really appreciate the help guys, I know $30 isn't much to work with, but I don't have much to spend on clothes right now, and i'm sick of my stuff. I've tried thrift stores, and I find some good stuff, but it's pretty rare. I'm just looking for some basic shirts, hoodies, pants for cheap. I do appreciate your opinions though.

My size is s/m for shirts/sweaters, 32/34 for pants, and 36/38 for suits, and 10/12 for shoes depending on how they fit.

I'm really trying to update my wardrobe a bit from the terrible baggy and bad styling of AE and Aero clothes that I wear.

Thanks

Ok, I'm still looking to spend $30 with paypal since the promotional savings is so good. Just tell what your willing to let go for $30.
