clothes
My family is far from rich. My mom and dad are both on social security. I only have one pair of jeans and it's emarrasing. I have to wear the same pair of jeans every other school day and everybody notices. I've had these pair of jeans for over a year now and they are so worn out. The insides of them are so holy. And they are so washed out. I have no money to go out to buy any jeans. I don't know what to do. Can anyone help?

I've been through it all too when I was youung.DOnt care what others think, if they have a problem just ignore it, they dont understand and its why they do it.
If you are upset, try finding cheap cheap clothes.

What size jeans do you wear? i might be able to help you out. AND if your parents are getting socail security, depending on the circumstances you should be able to get it too. You look the people straight in the face and tell them if they have a problem with you wearing the same jeans buy you some. Talk to your school consouler. everything you say to them is private. Maybe they will point you in some good directions. If you dont wont to do this, then get in touch with me however you can and i will personally buy you some and send them to you. I understand what you are going through.

first of all, people need to mind their own business. they sound really rude. i know people that wear the same pair of jeans alot in one week even if they aren't poor. some people buy more than one pair of the same jeans because they really like them. and alot of jeans look alike, so i dont know why these people are making such a big eal ab it. second, the "holey" or "washed out" look is in right now for jeans, so at least that's good. jeans can be expensive, so try going to bargain places to look for jeans. alot of jeans are anywhere from 40-300$ or more, but sometimes you can find them on sale for $20 (if you can afford that) at department stores like target, jcpennys, kohls, etc. also, you could look at walmart or good will or somethin.g i hope i helped

Talk to your friends and see if any of them have an old pair of jeans that don't fit them anymore that they could give you. Or you could do a trade! Swap clothes / accessories with your friends. Maybe you could trade a purse to wear a friend's jeans for a day.
Also, don't be afraid to check out resale shops. There are some more "high class" ones out there now, like Plato's closet, that sell cheap name brand jeans. If you have any old clothes that you don't like or have outgrown, take those in. They'll pay you for your old clothes (if they're in good condition) and you have money for some new jeans!
Good luck! :)

You can try to make holes in them your self. Its the trend now a days anyway. But you can try to go to second hand stores and buy jeans. I've seen jeans on sale for like $5 in regular stores. Or you can try to go to a church or Synagogue and ask for help. There are places that will help you get clothes and food.
Try to find a people to people location near you.

I know that feeling!
Well, the first thing I would do is decorate your old jeans. My friends and I usually color on ours with marker (but we write like cool quotes from songs and draw stars), but if that seems a little childish, you can really wear faded jeans with anything. I love my old faded jeans. Two best outfits with faded jeans
1. button down shirt (single color: NO PLAID); either long necklace or belt (not both); and boots (or brown shoes). Necklaces are best at Forever21 because they are made to imitate modern style (and they're cheap)
2. big Hanes white men's t-shit (not kidding, it's sexy); jeans; either high shoes or sneakers; dark eye-makeup; pull hair back and high; shiny lip-gloss; big-earrings; any brown or black sweatshirt works well
Don't worry if they're washed out. A lot of celebrites pay hundreds of dollars to make their jeans washed out. Plus, the older jeans are the more likely they'll fit your body well.
However, if you want new jeans, and you can scrounge up 10 to 20 dollars, go to Goodwill or Salvation Army. You may think "oh, those are for really poor people" but they're so not. I have a wealthy friend, maid, everything, you know, who actually shops there sometimes for her theater costumes. A lot of the clothes donated, especially at Goodwill, are actually just clothes people have outgrown. And since standard jeans never go out of style, it doesn't matter if they're a few years old. Skinny jeans are going out. They're really last season. Finding a good pair of comfortable, relaxed jeans is key. Luckily, those are the easiest to find! Also, if you ever get a pretty good sum of money and you want to get designer lable, go to Buffalo Exchange (www.buffaloexchange.com). It's this ah-mazing designer discount clothing store. I bought my favorite jeans ever there.
Sorry, I'm a little fashion crazed. lol. Hope I helped!

This makes me so sad. I do not know what type of resources you have where you live. Around here there are places you can check such as a church organization. They usually have days that you can go get what you might need with no payment or questions asked.
Have you talked to your school counselor? Maybe they can steer you in the right direction either towards earning some money for new clothes or somewhere to get some.
Keep your chin up because you are not what you wear and one day you will use this as an experience to help you be a stronger better person. I am sure if you really look into it you can figure it out.

I understand this is a very difficult situation. Would maybe, getting a job help? You sound quite young yet, but you can always baby sit, or mow lawns, rake leaves, shovel driveways, for some cash. I hope things look up.
