Dear KOTN,
At school today, I was teased because I wasn’t wearing name brand clothing. It seems like everyone at school has clothes from the popular stores and I don’t. I know I can just purchase some new clothes, but everyone has been shopping at the “in” stores for years and have quite the collection of cool clothes. It will take me forever to have a closet like everyone else. Any advice?

Dear Fashion Challenged,
My advice to you would be just to ignore the people that are teasing you by what you wear. What you wear shouldn’t matter to other people because you are your own person. Those people are judging the book by its cover or in other words judging people by their clothes. Just because people have more clothes than you and a better closet doesn’t make them any better than you. Just be yourself! There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being yourself, wearing what you want to wear, and doing what you want to do because you are your own person. If it’s still bothering you, you could tell a parent, guardian, or teacher about the bullying so they can help you with the problem. I hope my advice helped you. Good luck!
