I'm in high school, and Ive gotten tired of wearing brand name clothes like Hollister and American Eagle. Ive been looking for some clothing that isnt expensive and that dosen't have words and logos all over it. Something simple. Any suggestions?

since it's now fall and you're in high school, i would do button ups with sweaters (when the temperature permits) and cardigans. i also like the polo and navy blazer look with khaki pants and brown loafers/ bluchers. if you want to throw in a suit, i'd choose dark grey or charcoal and some dark brown shoes to go with. some here will say "oh it's just high school, no one cares, why would you spend your money on anything that looks good?" but, i feel that if you know how to dress correctly, you should not let a chance pass you up, no matter if you're in high school or if you're in the real working in a corporate office.
if none of these things look good to you, keep searching for something that does and wear that

EDIT: one other thing. i bough a lot of clothes in high school because i didn't think i'd grow much more. i was correct in that guess. this is another reason why some people don't think it's necessary to dress in high school. so, be selective with things you buy and make sure that they're no expensive because you may find yourself growing out of them in a few months.

I personally recommend H&M. If you have one out there, then go check it out and find yourself some nice tees, shirts, blazers. They have very good prices and usually the fabric is good too. It's too bad we don't have one here in Halifax.

You can get some clothes from an american eagle or so without logos although it gets hard (and I have never liked wearing advertising if I am not being paid).

Gap tends to sell a lot that does not have a name scribbled across every inch as does Banana Republic and J. Crew (while all still wearing clothes you can comfortably wear in high school).

Wear what you want to wear. **** A&F kids. They won't even be popular anymore in college.
