I think that you are way too cought up in looking good and worrying about what people will think of your clothes. It's one thing to be jelous, but it's another thing wanting the same things just to be like those girls and that's just wrong. If you like Hollister, Abercrombie, American Eagle that's fine and it's okay to wear it. But if you like those other clothes and if you think they are cute, why does it matter that they are not those brands?? It could be the SAME shirt with a different name tag, and you would still feel better wearing the expensive one. Honestly, guys do not like girls for the type of clothing they wear. There are MANY different types of guys. Half of them just happen to be very shallow. Some guys happen to like girls for personality, some booty or whatever their ideal girl might be. Do you think that I have friends and boyfriends because I wear Hollister, AE & A&F? No. Not everyone has soo much money. Not all of my clothes are from those stores. I shop at other places & I'm not ashamed of it. Why should I be? I know I'm NOT the only one & I bet you that HALF of those "pretty girls" in your school have clothes & accesories from other stores that they don't say. If you don't feel femenime or pretty enough sometimes, do something nice for yourself. Wear your hair different, wear different make up if that might make you feel better. I don't really know what else to say to convince you that clothes don't make you who you really are. [ Teza's advice column | Ask Teza A Question ]
