Why is that most people feel the need to dress exatly the same as everyone else? I mean you have a group of Emo kids with all the same hairstyles, Chavs wearing nothing but fake bling that they bought for a pound (Doller for the americans), Goths wearing dark make up. I mean don't these people know how to think for themselves? It just annoyes me that alot of people are sheep and need to follow the crowd instead of thinking for themselves

You ask these people why do they copy everyone else and the usual answer is something like ''Oh it's the fashion and everyone else is doing it''........right so if everyone jumped off a cliff you'd do that to?

I don't dress like everyone else, but I have good style. I feel happier when people envy my clothes, and when I look different. I don't fit into a group at all. There are people in this world who have good style and don't follow anyone else. Don't assume things. I have my style and I am not getting rid of it.

Same here. I don't like the idea of dressing up exactly like everyone else, though I imitate a few things such as wearing leggings under a skirt or wearing fairly tight jeans. But I have only 3 pairs of jeans, and I like courtoroy pants better. They're very comfortable, and most people wear them only once in a while. My school is very lenient when it comes to dressing up, as long as you don't expose too much or wear swimsuits. So, everybody expects to see somebody dressing wildly, and they don't make fun of those people. i wish all schools were like this! I prefer color coodinated outfits, with bright but soft colors.

I usually dress a little ahead of my time and everyone else seems to catch up at least a few months or so later. I can often predict the latest styles a year or two ahead of time!

I like to dress to express my personality, so I usually wear lots of bright colors, especially purple :) (I make sure they don't clash though)

Fashion was never a concern in my book, I just pick something and get out the door. Besides, Isnt it a Kind of affect of AS to not care as much about Fashion? If not, it's just what I read.

where less likely to submit to peer pressure or care what others think of us, that is why stuff like this comes up hear more than other places
