Is the cost of tuition and textbooks burning a hole through your pocket? Then buy a new pair of pants! Wondering how to stay fashionably fabulous, while staying within your budget? Well, don’t worry your pretty little minds, because I am here to tell you it is possible. Accumulating a fashionable wardrobe does not have to consist of designer outfits, or apparel from the finest stores. There are many alternatives like thrift store shopping, bargaining, or even remarkable sales that can help any college student maintain an oh-so-appealing, trend-setting appearance. Other than learning how to manage my time, I also learned how to manage my budget, and you can do the same.
Erin (pictured above) is one of the many fashionably forward students at the University of California Riverside, who knows how to be stylish, unique, and creative, without having to spend the big buck$.
