But for "real" clothes I like Modcloth. It's just difficult to buy from there because the quality is so hit or miss. I'm a snob when it comes to how the piece is made, what material was used, and whether or not it looks "expensive". I won't buy things that look cheap even though 90% of the time they are. So I have to read all of the product details very closely before I buy. Of course when I start student teaching I'll have to re-evaluate and start buying more practical, teacherly outfits...but Modcloth is my fave until then.
If I weren't working with a such a tight budget I'd buy just about everything from Free People and Anthropologie.

The new Target Calypso collection was so cute, but by the time I went (like a week after it debuted), everything was GONE.
For jeans, I only wear American Eagle. They're the only ones that hold up well and fit me.
Everything else.....a lot of NY & Co. for school/hospital, and a lot of Tommy Hilfiger and Ralph Lauren the rest of the time.
Oh yeah, I'm also addicted to Sperry, North Face, Columbia, and Sanuk flip flops.
