Let's bring the entire damn decade backkkkk!!!! As far as stores... hmmm... really don't have a "favorite," but I go in H&M and Bloomingdales a lot. Barneys New York is great to look around (and buy elsewhere!) | |

I shop on-line for clothes. News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so. You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop. | |

Lately it's all Target and Old Navy. 
But for a good reason. All my old clothes are too big on me. And it's the cheapest way to slowly replace my wardrobe and still look decent. |

LOL the storez i shop at you don't get much outside Australia 
I tend to get quite a few thingz from Bardot, Lolitta (both owned by same company!), here and there i'll get stuff from Kookai...a place called Quick Brown Fox...I love to go where there'z a sale- the other month I bought a toffee coloured 50s style dress with boning through the bodice- it was by Marcs and it cost me only $47!! It would have cost between $150 and $300. I need a few casual topz for winter actually. Casual but trendy! I've got a look in mind so let's see what I can get.  No hablo espanol,no!

eBay is your friend.
Look at this Lacoste sweater: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BNW...dZViewItem You could snap it up for about £30.00 including postage and it's brand new. | |

I like the small clothes shops. Like Fashsion gal, forever 21. Target has lots of cute clothes too. My brother works at Nordstrom, and gets a really good discount. I just hate paying 150.00 for a pair of jeans, so I rarely by from there. Say it's just a dream...
U open up ur eyes and come 2 realize u simply imagined this So u lean over and give her a kiss Here on earth, here on earth, with u it's not so bad Here on earth, here on earth eye don't feel so sad Stay right here | |

ya know, target really isn't a bad place to get clothes...for stuff like office casual dronewear that you don't wanna pay lots of money for, and for t-shirts and plain hoodies and stuff like that...i don't hate 'em! | |

Most of it has never been worn.
I got a Burberry trench coat from my local thrift store for $9. It's going for $1,225 on the website.  I mean, like, where is the sun? | |

H & M!  Cheap cheap cheap!
Mango Zara Urban Outfitters (although I find it WAY overpriced for the quality) Marshall Fields (great shoes and jeans selection) The Gap (sometimes) Victoria's Secret and The Gap. They both have good underwear.
Vero Moda Ragstock and all else is fron various shops, boutiques, and vintage stores I guess. [Edited 5/9/06 11:50am] "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

dreaded chain store: torrid (even though i very seldom shop there anymore, since it seems like their clothes get uglier and uglier each passing season  ) | |

Cheap cheap cheap!one time i was out at the mall of america and i stepped inside h & m outta curiosity...i was in there for a good 30 seconds before i got this overwhelming feeling of "HIPSTER OVERLOAD!

In fact, they're different in every city WITHIN Holland too, so you have to know which ones suit you, because the merchandise is different everywhere.
I did go in the one in the Mall once and I didn't like it at all. Everything looked really frumpy and just conservative and plain.  How odd that you found it to be hipster-ish. Maybe they've changed their merchandise since then. But yeah, we don't really have "hipsters" here in Holland anyway. It's just a totally different scene, but I know exactly what you're talking about. I would have thought you'd say that about Urban Outfitters in fact. That place it hipster central! 
Plus, do "true" hipsters REALLY hang out at the Mall of America?

And Deja, I know what you're talking about. I used to shop there frequently and over the last year I find I spend an hour there trying desperately to find something I'll like and end up walking out with nothing. |

[Edited 5/9/06 12:20pm] If you vist one of the H&M's in Antwerp, you really can get a hipster overload. The other ones (even in Antwerp there are about 3 of them  ) are okay.
I visit them often, next to Zara, sometimes Mango, Vero Moda and Mexx. And sometimes Cora Kemperman, don't know how well-known this is outside the Netherlands and Belgium, but there are very beautiful clothes in these collections  | |

I like NoaNoa-clothes (Danish clothes, I think) but they are way too expensive for me to have a real collection of.
I recently discovered there's some kind of similarity in the clothes I like. Most of them are Scandinavian: Vero Moda and Hennes and Mauritz for the basics everyone wears,... | |
