1. OK so I've been looking up some colthes to buy before I set out...

I found the Converse All Stars I want, but they're 40 bucks! pinch.gif

Is there anywhere that sells these at a discount?


2. I don't want "emo" jeans but I want some loose fitting boot cut or boyfriend jeans that are kinda "brown" and/or dark colored and would look a little emo but not to the point where I would be giving into the trend of "emo pants".

Is there a place that sells jeans like this, at a mall or something?


3. Some screen tees! Something that almost looks emo but leans more toward skater/punk.

Where can I find stuff like that?


THE END. Thanks.

Mm, if you're looking for some screen tees, you could try PacSun.
Then again, you can go to www.threadless.com for some good tees [expensive, however]
or go to www.delias.com for some screen tees as well.
As for the emo pants, I'm not too sure.
They sell very cheap Converse shoes at Mervyn's though! laugh.gif

emo pants? well, thats kind of hard to find since youre a girl. usually guys just wear girl pants. delias is good. also, you can get converse at journeys for only about 20 or so dollars. mm..pac sun is a nice place as well.

Thanks for the suggestions! I like what I see at delias. =]

I hear some people shop at Goodwill for stuff like this? blink.gif Do they really have anything good there?

Wow, delias's shirts are like 4 times as much as I am comfortable spending. =\ Maybe I can get one shirt there... for Christmas. heh.

I will check at Pac-Sun. Last time I was there, I wasn't looking for screen-tees, I was looking at their hoodies and found a lovely warm one there. So I dunno a lot about their screen tees. But I do like Pac-Sun... it's my favorite "mall" store. =)

Yup, Old Navy is another of my favorite stores. I just don't shop a lot, so I gotta prepare, you know!

I used to go to Ross (Dress for Less) and a lot of the stuff there is supposed to be name brand. But a lot of it shrinks, and that's bad.

Does name brand stuff shrink?! I didn't think name brand stuff shrunk.

And what's a vintage store? =o

On any given day about half of what I am wearing is from Goodwill.

Depends. GoodWill has alot of vintage (retrocade, classic, er old) clothing.
However, there are stores that you can find that are dedicated to vintage clothing.
In which case, the same shirt you just found at Goodwill for $4.50 costs you $32 now.

Also, just some advice, cause you seem kind of lost.
If you like that "Emo" look. Go for it.
Don't hesitate just because you feel it's a bit too trendy.
Wear what you want because you like how it looks.
And, sure... practicality. happy.gif

Seriously though - my family could only *afford* clothes at places like Goodwill and Salvation Army when I was growing up. It's hit and miss. Sometimes you find great things there, sometimes you find crap. It's just the name of the game.

Just a hint of advice from an oldtimer (in life, not necessarily at cB). Dress in what you *like*. I can't say enough how annoyingly frustrating it is when I hear people ask for advice regarding "emo" clothes.

Take heed.
For real.
