My identical twin and I only started dressing alike as adults. It's the way it should be.

• My identical twin sister and I refused to wear the same clothes as children. 
• It helped us feel like individuals while everyone got us mixed up.
• As adults, we appreciate our similarities and differences, sharing clothes and memories.

My identical twin sister, Aimee, and I were complete opposites growing up.

Aimee loved makeup and musicals, and I loved skateboarding and blaring Avril Lavigne from my bedroom. Aimee went to dance classes while I wrote short stories and buried my head in books.

Despite our clear differences, our family, friends, and teachers often struggled to tell us apart.
