Negotiate with Mom: Mom gets the final say about clothing, however, you are now 16 and can "negotiate" with mom for some clothing styles that she approves.

Hard to say: Her money,her home,her rules.You may want a sit down discussion after you do some footwork.You may want to bring photos of the clothing styles worn at school.Be ready to express your frustration of being forced to wear clothing that makes you feel conspicuous or shame.You may need to be ready to get a job to pay for your selections.You are entitled to food & shelter,not a personal wardrobe
