Fall weather is finally here. After prolonged weeks of 90-degree weather, the cold has arrived. Along with this drop in temperature comes tons of new fashion trends. Shopping for new clothes to prepare for this weather can be expensive, so here are some places to shop for fun fall looks on a budget.

Walmart

This may sound ridiculous, but don’t count Walmart out! This store has recently worked to bring in several different clothing lines. There is a wide variety of sweaters, scarves, boots and all other fall essentials. You are going to Walmart to get your snacks anyway, why not browse for new fall clothing items too?

Goodwill and Angels Attic

Thrifting is another way to get inexpensive clothing. It also allows you to find unique pieces so you can stand out from the crowd. Since Murray is a college town there is a good chance you will be able to find gently used clothing that will complete your look.

Rue 21

Located near campus, Rue 21 is a convenient place to shop. The store prides itself on being fashion forward and having unique items. If you can’t make it to the store, you can browse their website and gain inspiration from their featured looks of the week.

Old Navy

If you are willing to drive to Paducah or order online, Old Navy might be your fall shopping destination. This store constantly has sales on all their clothing. From dresses to new jeans, Old Navy has everything.

JCPenney

Shopping at JCPenney can be more expensive than the previously mentioned places but it still offers several discounts and clearances. This store is also located near campus and can be a great place to look for fall clothing.
