We college girls are always trying to be on top of our fashion game but it always comes at a price. We want the latest and greatest… with some leftover cash to hit the bars after the shopping spree in our new digs. Stores both online and down the street have made desginer brands easily attainable for those of us on a budget. Check out some of my favorites!

Most of the clothes are gently used, but there are quite a few items with tags still attached!
