5 Trendy Online Stores Every College Student On A Budget Should Know About

Paramount Pictures

If you are anything like me, clothes are everything. Every time I go shopping or get a package of clothing in the mail, I'm instantly in the best mood EVER. Since coming to college I had always tried to keep up with the latest trends and looks that people have been trying to achieve this year. Unfortunately, the price tag gets in the way sometimes.

I mean, who wants to spend $100 on a pair of jeans? Not me. I've been searching for the best online shopping stores that won't hurt your bank account, but still leave you looking absolutely fabulous. Here are the top five online stores I have found to shop while on a college budget! Get to shopping, ladies.

1. Zaful

One of my favorite online stores to find all the best swimsuits for summer is Zaful.

You can get a bikini set for just $11.99! Like what?! I find myself ordering at least 10 for summer.

Zaful also has other clothing like tops, shoes, bottoms, and accessories. They offer all different styles and looks. Shipping takes about 2 weeks, but once your items arrive, you're guaranteed to love them.

2. BooHoo

Boohoo is an online store that offers such a good variety of clothing. Boohoo sells more streetwear and loungewear.

I have ordered many things myself from Boohoo, and have loved the pieces I've ordered EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

This is the perfect place to shop, and they always have sales going on. There is 50% off everything sale right now, you can't beat that.

3. Princess Polly

Princess Polly is my favorite clothing store of all time. They have a streetwear, grunge style that will fit all the newest trends.

They are a bit pricey, but I've always been willing to spend $45 on a top because of their amazing quality.

They have an app you can download on your iPhone that makes it so easy to shop. Their shipping is SO quick, even though it comes from Australia. They have a wide variety of dresses, skirts, denim, and tops that will be sure to make you feel like a million bucks.

4. Nasty Gal

Nasty Gal is the one online clothing store that always has the BEST sales. I have shopped online through them for so long, and sometimes get 80% off on clothing. It is crazy how much money you save.

Their clothes take about two weeks to get in, but they are so cute and great quality.

Nasty Gal offers so many different styles of clothes, and you are sure to get the best quality. I ordered a dress for last New Years from this website, and still to this day, it is my favorite dress.

Nasty Gal has an app that allows you to shop from your phone, and makes it a lot easier to shop on the go.

They also offer AfterPay. AfterPay is a payment plan that let's you break up your total into four separate payments to lower your cost at purchase!

5. Curtsy

Curtsy is a thrifting app that you can download. It is students, like ourselves, that resell their clothing items for a lower price. I have found some of the cutest outfits from this app.

It is clothing that you can buy at a cheaper price than what they originally bought it for! Curtsy offers costumes, loungewear, athletic wear, jeans and denim, tops, swimsuits, and shoes. It is all resell, so you are buying directly from another person.

The prices of some items are marked down by choice of the seller, so go search for some really great deals on some really cute clothes!

Happy shopping everyone, I hope you find your next favorite outfit at one of these stores!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

It's easier than you think.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

College without friends is like peanut butter without jelly.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
