I hate it when I see people wearing the same clothes as me, anyone else get that?

I know it's kind of impossible to not see a random stranger wearing the same item as clothing as you, but It gets annoying when you see it more than once. There's no way to be unique any more, is there?

I don't mind if it's the same jeans or anything, but tops I don't like when other people wear them. I have a top which I bought from New Look, and then was wearing it at the same time as a little old lady who must have been about 80. It was cringy. She wanted a photo and I was like.. umm.. no!

Not 100% unique, no... unless you get your clothes tailor made and patented! But I think what's more important is the way you wear your clothes, not necessarily what the clothes actually are.

Simple: don't buy your clothes from the same crappy high street outlets as everyone else.

Ooooh, that must of been awkward lol, especially an old lady! I saw a chav/loud mouth rude boy wearing the same hoody as me the other day. Sometimes if I see someone wearing the same top or something, I'll comment and say "You got good taste!" with a smile. After all, I guess there isn't much I can do. It's just annoying lol.

What does it matter if you're unique in how you dress or not? Surely it's more satisfactory to feel unique as what you are as a person rather than simply how you dress.

Besides, we are all unimportant and not unique, I personally think this is important to get to grips with. I don't mean that in a patronising way or whatever but it's actually quite liberating once fully realised and things like this are no longer an annoyance.

Okay, but where do you suggest I shop? Because I am unemployed, so I can't shop in expensive stores. Also, I don't like spending £50/60 on a shirt or jeans.

It doesn't usually happen but there have been times when I've seen an 8 year old (well looks about that age) wearing a coat that I've got (but then I suppose thats what you get when you buy kids clothes sometimes). Thats a bit more embarrasing.

Tescos, Matalan, Charlies, independent shops, charity shops, the local market, band/festival t-shirts, various club stash (I have an entire wardrobe of club stash)

I also buy a lot of clothes from the US/Canada, but unless you're going over there anyway, that's not exactly a cheap option.

Hahaha the best is when it's a really posh girl/guy who obviously think they look like they have designer clothes, but you know it's from Primark.

I had once guy wince at me once because he was kitted out in designers, apart from his shoes....which were clearly from Primarni :P

Make your own clothes out of curtains and bedsheets, and staple a bit of plastic to your head. You'll be unique and the talk of the town.
