i had the weirdest experience in the gym today... this girl walked in wearing an outfit i own. not that anything i own is so unique, and i've seen other people wearing stuff i already have (who hasn't). but she literally had the same jacket i have (which was funny b/c i went on a mad search for the coat -- it was a military style jacket from wet seal that's a replica of one marc jacobs did last fall), gap bermudas in khaki, and the same tote from old navy i use. it was truly bizarre, but in a good way. has this ever happened to anyone?
LOL HOW FUNNY! I may see other women wear a dress or shoes I may have, but never the exact same outfit. LOL I guess it means yall have the same good taste? LOL

I have never seen anyone in my exact outfit, just peices.
Yesterday my SIL came over to pick me up and we were both wearing the same green cord blazer from ON. (I changed, I didn't want people thinking we were a cult or airline stewartesses or something.)
My mom and I do this all the time. Like right before we're supposed to go somewhere we'll see each other and we'll be in the same outfit. Not always the exact same piece, but the same color, style and overall look. We already look so much alike so one of us has to change so we don't look like such dorks.
We also buy the same things without the other knowing. Like in college I bought this random, out of season Tessuto cocktail dress and called to tell her about it and she had bought it for herself the day before. Even stupid stuff like cheap-o Revlon lipsticks we pick up on impulse at Target... we end up with the EXACT same ones without planning it or anything. I guess our coloring and styles are just too similar.
This has never happened to me either. I rarely see people even wearing pieces of my wardrobe, which is weird b/c I have more stuff from mall stores than I do from one-of boutiques. I can't remember the last time I saw someone wearing something in my closet, except my friend who I used to work with at the store, but that doesn't count.
but what happened to you honey is really interesting. you should have tried to befriend her.
i wanted/want too. but i didn't really know how to do it without sounding like a stalker. but the next time i see her, i'm definitely going to stop her. since obviously i think she has great style
I've had this with a co-worker before it got so bad that I showed up in bright red tights once (early 90's is my excuse) and so did she! It was truly bizarre.

Me and my best friend do this alot,not the same exact outfit,but similer style clothes.What is really strange is my best friend is a guy.He will have on the male version of somthing I own ,or somthing in the same color and fabric.Some days we show up at school wearing the same color,I mean the exact same shade.I think we spend to much time together

I don't know if this counts or not, but before I met my now best friend, she went to school with me and moved in across the street. When I started to get to know her, I saw that she had probably 10 of the same pieces as me in the same color. We still often buy the same things on accident.
