NOW IS THE TIME TO SHOP ONLINE.
Alright, so you might be broke because you're not working anymore BUT surely you have something saved right!? (fingers crossed you actually do, or I feel like a privileged shit for assuming this lol rip)
Anywho, if you don't have a card where you can buy things online - get one! ALSO, sign up for PayPal because that's the safe way to go WOOO!
K so I've never been much of an online shopper because low key trust issues & fears of things arriving that are like waaaay off to what I've ordered. PLUS when it comes to clothes I've always just assumed it's a sorta hit or miss situation... and I've found out it sorta is LOL but like, I have this rule when it comes to buying clothes online:
DON'T BUY ANYTHING THAT'S OVER $20
Does this make me a cheap ass? PERHAPS, but like who's the winner here??? This rule exists in my head, so that if things come and are like too tight or just off, you won't feel tooo bad, because it was cheap so WHATEVS RIGHT?

So the stores to hit up:
Keep in mind these are like my top 3 cheap clothing websites to go to, but just keep in mind the sizes are small-made & the fabric will like 99% of the time be thinner & cheaper than you imagined, but hey, GOOD FOR SUMMER RIGHT?
http://au.shein.com/
https://au.romwe.com/
https://www.zaful.com/
These places are also great for shopping but are SLIGHTLY more pricier, but they're also more legit - like the material is better!!

Tip: LOOK AT THE REVIEWS & RATINGS before you buy to give you a good indicator of whether it's dodgy or not
The more trusting sites when you can be a bit more yolo with your money because they're quite reputable:
https://www.urbanoutfitters.com/
https://www.hypedc.com/
https://www.showpo.com/
Oh yea, and EBAY IS LIFE. No joke, EBAY FOR DAYSSS - just sort your search results so it's "price & postage low first"
Just keep in mind the sacrifice for this cheapness is that your parcel will take like a month to arrive BUT HEY, no rush right because you're on house arrest for a few months so like, might as well make it Christmas everyday right? LOL
