Ugh...okay I HATE my clothes. I went through this whole phase recently of "I care what everyone else thinks and my opinion doesnt matter". And that includes clothes. I wear the same old crappy polo tees from hollister and stupid jeans and stupid shoes. I just look like every other boring un-unique "prep". Well, i've finally grown out of this. I now want to start dressing like my personality which is edgy, unique, and artsy. I like rock/emo/indie music if it helps? I'm looking for some fashion tips (example...stuff like wearing your belt to the side, etc.) And some stores online I could check out to help me dress more "edgy". Also, i dont have alot of money. How can i rock out a plain polo? Any hair ideas? Makeup ideas? I hate dressing "preppy" when inside im not like that. THANKS! (link)

How can you rock out in a plain polo? With attitude. It's really not about what you wear, but how you wear it.
Wear your polo over a long sleeved thermal, preferably in bright mis-matched colors. Add pins, a fun scarf, or whatever other accessories you like. Cut the toes of a pair of striped socks, and wear them as arm warmers. Wear your kid brother's pokemon t-shirt over your polo with the collar sticking out.
Crimp your hair instead of straightening or scrunching it. Buy cheap plastic little kid barrettes to pull back the sides. Braid it, wear low pigtails.
Thrift shop. As someone else said, Salvation Army. Also try Goodwill, or Ragstock if you've got one nearby. Also raid closets- if the family member it belongs to doesn't want it anymore, make it work for you.
Skirts are fun. Making a long, flowy skirt is fairly easy, if you've got a few yards of plain fabric and a little sewing knowledge (or you know someone who does)
Really, just start small. Show your personality through the little things like color matching and accessories. Gradually add more edgy pieces of clothing to your wardrobe. If you make it a sudden change, you're more likely to come accross as just wearing a new costume of a different stereotype. You're much better off experimenting gradually to find your own style.
