How many have you been out in male mode and noticed a GG wearing a necklace, skirt, top, or whatever just like what you have? Don't you just want to tell her that it looks great on her and you have one just like it? My latest along that vein was seeing Rachel Ray on her cooking show wearing a top just like one of mine. Bet she paid more than I did. Of course, she also looked better in it, too.

Julia, this has happened too me a couple of times...most recently, about 3 months ago, had a customer in the store I worked at wearing a skirt I also own. I alms did say "I have that same skirt", but caught myself.....

I went into a store last summer to buy a few items and he cashier had the same tank top that I had on :D she filled it out better than I ever could ;) I saw a woman at a wedding wearing the same black peep toed sling backs that I also own but I think they look better on me than they did on her but I did tell her she had some awesome heels :)

Yes, one of my best GW friends has the same twin set as I do.

I was pulled up by a GG who asked where I got my skirt and top.
We were both wearing the same outfit.
She was even more surprised when I told her I was a guy.
She also bought me a cup of coffee and the wife is still getting over the conversation.

I once saw a woman in church wearing a dress like one I had recently sold to a resale shop and wondered if it was the exact same dress.

Saw a girl, 20 years my junior in our main office, with the same Peter Pan collar top I've got. A really gorgeous floaty top, I wore it just last week.

Have to say, my mine is a size or 2 smaller than hers though....bitch bitch. :battingeyelashes:

About ten or twelve years ago, when I was still entertaining the thought of dating/relationships, I was dating a girl from work. I know, bad idea, and predictably it went badly. Anyways, we saw one another at the company Christmas party and after exchanging pleasantries she went her way and I went mine. Of course, as she walked away, I could not help but to notice that she was wearing the 'same' pair of high-heeled sandals that I had just bought a few day before! Looking back on that, I guess it is easy to see why we connected so well at first.

I was standing in line at Starbucks and the girl in front of me had my high heeled sandals on. Made me realize why I liked them so much. I wish I was as hot in them as she was.

A few times I have run into someone with the same boots/pants/ect....most of the time I will say something....nice to see other ladies with the same taste.

About six years ago I walked into my boss's office and she had the same outfit on that I had bought at Lane Bryant about a week before, but her sweater and pants were black, and my sweater was the pink version. I blurted out "Hey, I have the same... coffee mug." She looked at me oddly, and said "That's nice." I was so thrown off that I had forgotten why I had come to see her. I have to admit, it really threw me off, as that was the first time that had ever happened. I have always wondered what would have happened if I had finished my sentence.

I've had a few instances where a gg has said to me, I like your top, slacks, etc. I have the same. One time I had a pair of pants on and a gal said hey we have on the same pants. Recently at an event a gal came up to me and said we must be twins because we are dressed alike. Funny part was we were both wearing a guy shirt, but the same jeans and boots which at first she hadn't noticed. I don't think she realized till later we were both wearing bras and I assume she was wearing panties too.

I sometimes see females in TV soaps or quiz shows wearing the exact same top as I have. I say to the screen "I know where you brought them"

About ten years ago I saw a woman at a wedding wearing the same style dress and color of one that was hanging in my closet. It was from K-Mart and the brand was Kathy Lee.

When I was in high school a neighbor girl wore a brown plaid skirt suit to school quite regularly. My sister had the same exact suit. One day while each was wearing their suit they saw each other. I never saw either one in that suit again.

About a year ago at a cookout I noticed a friend of mine wearing the same tank top I had recently gotten, same color too so go figure. But of course she filled it better :) I told her "You look nice today" and smirked a little bit to myself on the inside.

This happened to me on Monday. I saw a woman wearing the exact same T shirt I bought last summer and had to stop myself from saying something.

My wife and I were eating at a restaurant once when the 30 ish female manager came by to ask how we were enjoying our dinner. She was wearing a blouse identical to one I have. My wife noticed it too. No, we didn't say anything to her.

I haven't run into a woman wearing something I owned, but what happened to me was one day at work one of my co-workers mentioned that she really liked to wear dresses during the summer. I caught myself just before I told her that I did too. That was a close call.

I have done the same thing. But there have been times where I even said to myself "that looks way better on me."

Hi Julie, As I'm always lookind at the ladies I often see some one with the same shoes or outfit that I have.

I have that tendency all the time. To avoid feeling like a creeper, I always just say "My girlfriend...".

If I see someone wearing something I really want, I just ask where they got it, because "My girlfriend would look good in it too."

That has happened to me a few times, she was wearing the same dress or blouse. The thought did cross my mind to speak to her on that. But I would be afraid that she might think I was just some kind of freak or something.

I was at the Magic Castle dressed and ran into a GG wearing a silver wrap dress. I have exactly the same dress and was very glad that I had changed my mind about wearing it that evening. It did look very good on her but I doubt that she would have appreciated a tall twin.

I also have a work acquaintance that who has the same shoulder bag that I wear for for casual outings.

About 6 years ago in Miami I was in line behind a GG and her BF at the deli counter at a Safeway. I was admiring her T-shirt. It wasn't until later when I caught up to her at the checkout counter that I realized that she was wearing the same pleated mini skirt that I had. It looked much better on her than on me. I was in a place in my life that I didn't want to admit my CDing even to myself, so I certainly wouldn't have said anything to her.

Usually I'll notice someone in the same pair of jeans but I have seen someone in the same top or shirt/blouse on a couple of occasions.

I always wear Levi 525 for women. Nobody has said anything yet, but I sure notice when women wear the same jeans.

Yes I do, along with another forum member and our spouses! I've written about it a few times:

The funny thing is that I've had a "casual" job for many years and no reason to buy a male-mode suit. If I want to go to the Castle, I have to go en femme to satisfy their dress code! :)

I wear Levi's women's 505s, but they are quite common and I really don't notice other women wearing the same style.

Happened to me, I was walking out of the coffee shop one day and there was a well dressed
woman walking in, She had in the exact same dress that I had just bought a few days earlier.
Of course I held the door and smiled. If she only knew, :heehee:

none of my clothing is new so to speak, its all come from ebay or a thrift shop but i WAS at the bank several years ago and a new girl waited on me with the exact same name Leesa...

i made my name from my middle name Lee (and the fact i had a crush on a girl named Lisa WAY BACK in school) and i so wanted to tell her that Leesa was my name too but of course that wouldnt have worked too well...

I very nearly asked a lady where she got her slashed leggings from, they identical to a pair I'd bought a week before from my favourite store but mine are plus size.. All my wife could do was laugh.

I saw my psych on Thursday. And I swear she was wearing the same JLo dress as I have. I asked if she got it at Kohl's, and she didn't, so maybe it's just a look-alike

Not that long ago, my future sister in law was wearing the same pair of black wedge heels that i had. I so wanted to tell her but to my knowledge, she doesnt know about me. Her fiance...my brother in law...apparently knows though based on a conversation my wife had with him when she was seeking advice about me coming out to her. Lol maybe one day, my future sis and i can wear the same shoes together! They are very stylish.
