It doesnt matter what you wear honestly. Just wear what you want just tell them you can wear what you want and your tired of them picking what you can and cant wear-trix [ bAhAmAmA0250's advice column | Ask bAhAmAmA0250 A Question ]

Of course you don't copy them, you are simply influenced greatly by them and when you see an item of clothing they have, even if you don't know that they have it, as they were taken by the item, you have such similar tastes in clothing that you are also taken by it. Try shopping with them so that they can tell you if you are about to buy something they have.
Hope I helped,

They could be lying and saying they have the shirt just because they like it and then they could go and buy it. [ sshelbyy's advice column | Ask sshelbyy A Question ]

Maybe you could try to look around and see if there are any more shops or clothes that you like. You could look online and find deals there, or make your own clothes if that floats your boat. (I did that for a while, actually.) That way, you'll always be the one with your own sense of style, and your friends can bugger off for a change. You seem to know that it's not a big deal - your friends will just have to catch up to your maturity on this. [ Ronlina's advice column | Ask Ronlina A Question ]
