    Where do you--

    Where do you shop for clothes?  

     

    I usually go to New York & Co., but I wait until things are on sale or I have a coupon. I just love their clothes! I also look around Macy's, Maurices, and Wal-Mart.

    Re: Where do you--

    I love TJMaxx!!  Great deals!!  I also shop at Forever 21, Charlotte Russe, Macy's and the PX because they have brand name clothes for cheap and no tax.  I got a pair of 7 jeans on base for $50!

    Re: Where do you--

    I have been itching to go shopping forever now!  It's just so hard when you don't have time or money! 

    Target sometimes has really cute clothes.  When The Limited has their Red Sale, you can get a lot of clothes for really cheap.  There's new store to one of our malls called Jimmyz.  Sometimes they have really strange clothes, but then sometimes they have really cute ones.  You just have to go at the time of their sale, too.  The only time I really shop is at the end of season sales.  I just recently started shopping at Macy's (I hate department stores), and I love it!  I've never been to Maurices, but one of my friend's entire wardrobe is pretty much from there, and her clothes are really cute. 

    Alright, I need to save up some money to go shopping now!

    Re: Where do you--

    I LOVE Forever 21, Charlotte Russe, & Armani Exchange (they have reallly cute t-shirts). I go to Macys a lot, and this local store in town here called the Velvet Lounge, they have a lot of cute jeans and stuff. Also American Eagle, and Abercrombie.

    Theres also this store in NC i've been too, i can't even remember the name...you can get really good prices on clothes. ahh, its bugging me that i can't remember the name. I got a lot of cute clothes there once.

    i love Target and Aeropostale. i get most of my shoes and workout gear at Marshals. sometimes clothes, but its hard to find clothes larger than a size 9 in there. i also used to shop at Charlote Russe and Forever 21 but again i have the size issue there.

    Re: Where do you--

     I'm with Emily...hard to shop when you don't have money...time I can find...but it's that money thing I have a problem with. I love shopping at Macy's. I love Ross's prices, but that place give me a headache. But I have to force myself in there b/c the prices are great.

    Re: Where do you--

    Re: Where do you--

    Well my closet pretty much consists of Hollister and American Eagle. I don't wear Hollister much anymore because I've gained weight but I wear American Eagle all the time. I love their jeans. I do a lot of Wal-Mart shopping too.

    Re: Where do you--

     I love shopping! Most of my work clothes I get at NY & Co or Macy's. And then I shop mostly at American Eagle,Dillards, Express, or some of the cute little boutiques around here.

    Re: Where do you--

    Whow, you girls do some expensive shopping! I am such a poor college student right now, sadly shopping usually gets put on the back burner! When I do shop, it's normally at Kohl's and Target. If I'm feeling adventurous, Aero and Old Navy. I can't wait to graduate and have a real job with real money!

    Re: Where do you--

    I loooooove American Eagle mainly because the jeans actually fit my big butt & the size "short" is actually not too short either.

    Macy's is my other fav. Probably because I have a credit card there, and sometimes they have major clearances, especially if you buy off season. I find great deals there and they have sales where you get more off if you use your card.

    Wal-Mart is a staple for necessities

    and I like Forever 21, but just for the t-shirts and long sleeve t-shirts. They are so soft and cheap and perfect. I literally bought every color.

    Re: Where do you--

    I'm a fairly simple girl when it comes to clothes. I believe in good fitting jeans and tons of cute tops and shoes. I get my jeans from American Eagle because they're my favorite ones and they always fit me best. For tops I go to Forever 21, Charlotte Rusee, Closet, Refrence (a branch of Forever 21 but not as trendy, a little more grown up) and occasionally Target.

    Re: Where do you--

    I used to work at Abercrombie, so I have a bunch of clothes from there. I'm getting kind of "over" a lot of it though. I LOVE J. Crew's clothes, and shop there as often as I can afford it. Luckily, there's an outlet at Cabazon, pretty close to Joshua tree which is nice since we're up there a lot. I also like Forever 21, Ann Taylor Loft (mom clothes, haha), and White House Black Market, especially for dresses. Nordstrom is great too, but too expensive since I'm not really working right now!

    Re: Where do you--

    wow i feel like a brand whore now. LOL But i will pass this off since i get an employee discount.

    I shop at Banana Republic, Gap and Old navy (sometimes), Express (LOVE their jeans), Victorias secret, American Eagle, J Crew. I will sometimes find something in Hollister, The limited, Lucky Brand, Urban Outfitters, or Ann Taylor. I hit Macys, Nordys, Nine West, Aldo, and Journeys for shoes.

     We just got a White House Black Market recently and I love it! It's a little pricey but if you can catch things on sale they are fabulous! I have a great dress from there that I am still waiting for the perfect occassion to wear!

    I completely forgot about White House Black Market, I LOVE their stuff! Especially when its marked down!

    Re: Where do you--

    Lord its been forever since I've been clothing shopping... I miss it so much! but I'm with some of the other girls, finding the money is just sometimes difficult - my other thing is I want to find some clothes that fit now, but at the same time I don't want to spend a whole bunch of money on maturnity wear, and then barely wear them...

    I've been big on GAP for years, because I can actually get jeans long enough for me - and if you shop online you can find Extra Longs, and they are usually on sale!!! I also go to Abercrombie for jeans, but the last time I went in Matthew was with me and I thought he was going to pop a seam when he saw how much the jeans cost, so I didn't buy any there... Sad, I know.... The new place I found was/is Wet Seal, I know alot of their stuff is really young, but if I search the jeans rack I can usually find at least one pair that fits and usually costs about $20.

    Macy's, and any other major deparment store I continually go into, and search through their clearance stuff - sometimes you can find the one really cute top left, and it will happen to be in your size!!!

    Other than that.... I've always shopped at stores at home, but they don't exist down here in Cali. Like FredMeyer's....

    Let's see Wal-mart of course, JC Penney, Maurices (when I'm in KY), Hot Topic, Vanity (I've only seen it in the bowling green mall), Charlotte Russe (once or twice) and Hollister. I don't think I've ever bought a full price item there though..lol.
