Hi. Ok, here is the problem. I want to dress more cute than I have been. I wear t-shirts and jeans, mostly, but I'm getting rid of all my t-shirts soon. I like clothes, I just don't care what is in and what is out. We don't have money for things like abercrombie and fitch, or aeropostle. Usually, my mom goes to thrift stores. I do have some cute shirts. I just don't know how to put outfits together to make them cute. Thanks for answering! (link)
Check out Charlotte Russe, Forever 21, Wet Seal, etc. You can get some good buys there. Even though a lot of the stuff is expensive, sale racks at Macy's can be pretty cheap.

DO NOT GET RID OF ALL YOUR T-SHIRTS!!!!!
T-shirts, casual as they are, can get really dressy-ed up. Like, if you have a plain white t-shirt and you wear a little one-button sleeveless blazer or a vest or something. And, anyway, don't you want something loose and comfortable to wear when you just go to get some groceries?
Besides dressy-ing up a shirt, why don't you try making something out of it, or doing some DIY on it? You can find great and easy things to do on Google and such. Search "DIY shirts". You'll get some good stuff

Main thing to remember is to not overdo it. If you have a patterned top, keep the bottom solid and vice verse. Same thing with dark and light colors (i.e. light colors on top with a dark bottom or v.v.). If you have a really simple outfit, like a neutral color dress or tunic, try wearing a bright chunky belt over it. When you wear turtle necks or something with a high neckline, wear a long boho-style necklace or something. You know, just experiment and try to shake things up. Inbox me if you have any other questions =]
