PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ!!! SORRY IT IS SO LONG!
Hey everyone I just had a few questions about fashion.... Well everyone is telling us at this age to be yourself and all that. Well, last year {8th grade) I did just that. I was pretty happy with it. As far as fashion goes, I mostly wore t-shirts and jeans. you know, the kind of tshirts you get from sports teams or from school events. One problem is, you can't get those ANYWHERE but from things that you join and teams that you are on. Like you can't buy them from a store. I have this really small comfort zone and t-shirts are all that I will wear. I am not exactly sure why but I wont touch tight fitting shirts or baby doll type spaghetti straps, skirts or dresses. I wear makeup, but usually no jewelry. Actually, I do
sort of know why I dont wear these. A few years ago, (7 grade) I had a run in with the really popular girls. This was a time when i didnt have a good group of friends yet, I had a lot of friends from home but they went to different schools or they were in different grades. So anyways i was kind of starving for popularity, like most girls this age are, and i befriended this girl Katie. She is VERY popular, predjudiced,and basically doesnt like anyone who doesnt wear hollister or abercrombie. So I joined the club. I got into hollister and all that stuff and was mean to people that didnt wear it. Note- I feel absolutely HORRIBLE about this now and have gone back and apoligized for how stupid I acted. Anyways. While I was friends with Katie, I realized how mean some of these girl are. I dont know about your school, but they are Horrible. So at the end of that year She and I broke up our friendship because she was calling me names all the time and then she started acting REALLY mean to me. When I talking to the girls I had gotten to know through her, they completely ignored me too. So basically, that is why Im not comfortable wearing those kind of clothes. I dont want to look or act or have ANYTHING to do with them. two years ago I came home crying every day. last year, after my style change, i came home with friends and I was happy and everything was good. (even though some of my friends wish I was a little more GIRLY) I am actually really athletic. Okay anyways. Here is the problem. AM I NORMAL? I want to be more feminine. I dont really feel girly. I mean I look nice enough, I dont look like a slob, but lets just say Im not on top of the latest fashion. Its not comfortable for me and I just feel more comfortable in tshirts. I also really need some other clothing options badly. WHAT SHOULD I DO?!?!? no offense but for some reason I got it in my head that everyone associates that type of hollister/abercrombie clothing with being snotty and rude and rich and spoiled. Like if i met a kid wearing rags and smelled I would probably side with him over a girl that was wearing this kind of stuff. I have had a very bad experiance with these type of people and need to get over it. In the meantime, I need some help... PLEASE!!!

wear what you're comfortable in. i have my moments were i'm really girly, and then i have my days where i go hang out at my ex's house and wear his clothes home instead of whatever i was wearing when i got there [this usually only happens when i cook or if i was wearing a bathing suit, we dont do anything more than friendly]
you are normal dear, don't worry about that at all. i understand the rude girls who think they're shit doesn't stink, those are at everyschool.

I wear band t shirts, they're not big or anything. I mean, I'm a small girl (Wear size 0 pants) and I wear skinny jeans (I'm not emo), band t shirts (usually colorful. I also have lots of flats (shoes). I wear pearls with just about everything, it doesn't really come of my neck. I cannot stand wearing earings, they bug my ears but it would be nice to buy some cute (not long or anything) earings. Also, the only make up I wear is blush and eyeliner, not a lot of blush though, maybe this would work for you?
Hope I helped. =]

wear some loose-er clothes, not skin tight. youre not abnormal. its sorta tom boyish. (not a bad thing, just different). sure it isnt very feminie but it seems like you dont want to be a tom boy so just go to a store like gap or something, see what they have. also, wearing hollister DOES NOT make you a snobby prep.
