You are an exchange student in Mexico.  You will be starting school in a week and want to look “cool” to the Spanish teenagers you meet there! You are not sure what is in style, so you decide to choose clothing from one of the Department stores your host family says is "muy de moda." You have a limited budget, but plan to buy five items for your travel wardrobe. 

You are unfamiliar with shopping using pesos instead of dollars and, because of your limited budget, you want to make sure you are not spending too much.
