Berkeley, Ca and San Francisco are very good spots to find clothes for models. Berkeley, my spot have plenty of vintage shops around.

Envy? Did you ever get the chance to shoot here in the Bay area?

Yep, several people. Shyly, Collin Rae, Sita Mae, and SweatNapper from Oakland. I was productive to say the least. Pretty good for only being gone 5 days. smile

A lot of stuff in the 15dollarstore.com can be bought cheaper at a discount store like TJ Maxx/Marshalls. Plus you add in shipping and its actually a rip off.

I like Ross, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, etc. They have a lot of stuff for cheap you can work with and dress up or down really easily. Plus, they have designer stuff (Tahari, Coach...) for less than half the price.

In Philadelphia, there is no better place than Philly Aids Thrift.  It's located on Bainbridge between 5th and 6th.  I've found shit there I've NEVER found anywhere else, and a lot of the clothing seems to be donated by members of the nightlife scene.  I found Dr. Martin's for only $10 once!

Where do you guys find decently priced pants that are long. I go to express, but when there is no sale they're $70 for jeans! I can't afford this! Gap has longs, but they're still expensive and they fall apart pretty fast. I need cheap and long! I hate ordering online too. Things never look quite right...

I have long legs too and I really like Guess jeans. Good lengths and great fit.

Me too...VS is my favorite-they have great clearance sales.
I also really like shopping in discount stores like Rugged Wearhouse. They often sell stuff from the stores listed above for extremely low prices.

I recommend www.thefamilyvintage.com for vintage and retro clothing styles, you never know what they might have! (And my best friends own it)

And of course for shoes and boots I gotta recommend my store www.devab.us
I've also got a discount code set up for MM users...just key in mm at checkout to save 10% on purchases over $50. I think you'll find some great prices, and the selection is growing rapidly. Hope you like smile
