Fashionable Clothing for the Trendy Teen

By: Alex De Mostafa

Alright girls, it's time to talk teen fashion and clothing. Teen fashion is all about what's cool today, and "today" is always tomorrow. The clothes you wore last year at school just won't cut it for this year, but you don't have a job and your parents don't give you an allowance, or your allowance is something like $10 a month.

So what do you do? How do you fill your closet with today's fashionable teen trends without knocking over the clothing store?
Mo' Money, Mo' Money
Cold hard cash makes the world go 'round, and you're depressingly short of it. Your pockets are empty, and you're starting to look forward to that $10 allowance. You now have two choices:

- Find a job (if you're old enough)
- Figure out another way to make enough money to buy the clothes you want to buy

As a teen, finding a job may be out of the question, so let's look at option number two. One of the ways you might be able to make a little extra is by asking your parents if you can do extra chores. They may be surprised, but most parents are quite happy to pay for extra help, even if it's just a little bit here and there.

Another way is to use your creative talents. If you draw well, offer to draw portraits of your friends and family for a small cost. Friendship bracelets, as well, are a great way to bring in money, and you can start buying the materials with your allowance. Selling them for $2 - $5 doesn't seem like it would get you very far, but that money adds up.
One Fashion Item At A Time, Please
If you're absolutely stuck with that $10 allowance, it's time to go through your closet and decide which clothes are still in style, and which ones you wouldn't be caught dead in. Then, go through what you're keeping and figure out how to mix and match them to the best effect. Now go shopping.

Hit the Internet; don't worry, you aren't going to buy anything. Keep your outfits in mind and search for fashionable teen clothing that would go well with what you already have. Now here's the hard part. Make a decision on one piece of clothing you would like to buy, while keeping in mind that you have a small budget.

You have an entire month to find that perfect piece of fashionable teen clothing at the best price, so take your time and make sure it's something that you really want. Little by little, you'll find your closet filling up. You'll have something new to show your friends, and you'll learn the best places to shop for new teen fashion trends.
