I've been told more often than not; by different people, in different places, and during different stages in my life... that I have a "twin" somewhere - out there... whoever she is... maybe someday I'll meet her.... =)
What are some of the oddest things that people have said to you? Hope you're having a Sunny, Shiny Sunday!

Haha crazy! It certainly would be bizzare to run into someone who is your mirror image!
xx
i get that sometimes or do i have an older sister that looks kinda like me? HUH? dunno.. :] p.s. I WANT YOUR HAIR LENGTH!
that'd be awesome 2 fashionchalets!! twice the outfits and prettyness<3
That's very strange!
It would be very strange to meet a twin. When I was 7, my brother's girlfriend told me that when I turned 8 I would turn into a boy. I was so worried!
Great showcase of the hair, I like how you mirrored yourself her and again I spy that FCUK top I adore in that wine-purple colourr. Gorgeous. If you had a twin, the world had bEtter watch out!! ;)
Cat! x
PS: Jessica Stroup or Silver from 90210 blog post now...
Omg I have been told the same thing. Maybe someday I can meet her and switch places with her lol
I always think it's weird when people say I look like a celeb that I really don't look like at all... I've gotten Julia Roberts before. I def. don't resemble her! lol!
Some people have "familiar" faces, you're definitely one of them!
That is really strange.
Ever since high school people have been telling me I look like Kristen Kruek. That actress who plays Lana Lang on Smallville?
I especially get weird messages about it online. Which is strange because I don't get mistaken for any other asian actresses and I don't think I look like her at all anyway.
:]
I know a girl who looks freakishly like me, has a rhyming name, and has the same birthday (she's a year younger). So close? I can't think of anything that bizarre or random that anyone has said to me - I hope you find the "twin" though!
one time iwas called a sex goddess at a party .
one of my bf friends got drunk and she announced to the room that she heard i as a sex goddess
needless to say no girl would talk to me after that .
igot pretty pissed at my bf
LOL
Laurie LOL- my Mom gets that,"are you her sister?" ;)
Katelynn awww! TWICE THE UPDATES ;)
Annie Spandex LOL, I knowww. U?
Call Me Cat I love Silver on 90210 and her knee-socks!! <3
Delmy Me too, I also always wanted a twin to share secrets with and trade places with... :)
Jen I get Sandra Bullock and Brooke Shields all of the time ?? lol...
Rach That's a pretty awesome compliment. Kristin K. is so utterly gorgeous, no? :)
Hannah Woooooah.... rhyming name and nearly the same bday too? O_o - Similar story, choreographer to the Stars (including Michael Jackson) Wade Robson and I have the exact same b'day ... ;)
Damsels Ahhh :/ embarrassing moment. Those suck. What did you do??
I've been told tht before too! Kinda wierd! I love that photo! The shade of purplr is beautiful!
I love this song!
And I'm not sure if I've told you this before but you have the most beautiful hair. If you do have a twin out there, I'm pretty sure her locks are not going to be as gorgeous as yours!! Seriously. :)
I don't get any crazy comments like you, but I always get mistaken for 16. People just refuse to believe I'm 25 (I'm five feet tall and look young). So I get carded like six times by different people at bars. It's SO annoying. :(
I'd rather have a twin!
That's so strange, but kind of cool to think about!
i don't find that odd maybe cos i do look like some actress from hongkong and if we don't take after one parent then we take after at least a wee bit from some relative. a friend (asian) was told she resembled mariah carey - not impossible at all.
i used to be a flight attendant and passengers would say i looked like {insert nationality} depending on which asian country we're heading to.
"there are 7 people with similar faces like us out there"...that's what i heard from someone..(forgot who told me that)..lol!
:D ....
lovely pic!!
X
That's definitely an odd thing to hear about yourself...) I've been told that I look like Avril Lavigne, which is perhaps the weirdest observations because we are not alike in the slightest. =)
Check out my blog - I'm running a contest where you can win a clutch bag!
ive been told somewhere in my city this guy looks EXACTLY LIKE ME. they then proceed to ask me if i would date him... UM NO!
LOL.
"twins" do exist. just look at rumi and kenza;)
AHHH TWIN :D
One day, we'll meet and discover the MK to our Smash. Until that day, let's Skype again soon?
A twin! Really wow that is weird.
Here in the philippines I have been mistaken for these two actresses.. funny but I think I look nothing like them. Oh and when I had dark hair I got the Kristen Kruek thing too.. weird.

I had switched High Schools during 10th grade and during the first week I had people calling after me by the name of Brandy, as soon as I'd turn around they acted like they knew me until they came within a couple of feet of me they were stunned I wasn't this girl. She was popular as many people did this, but funny thing is I've only seen this girl from behind at a far as someone once pointed her out to me and never did I see what this girl looked like, but I really wanted to see for myself. I was almost desperate to know but from seeing her from afar I knew we had the same style. I had a guy tell me one time, "Wow...the resemblance is striking and freaky, considering you guys are not even related, she does have bigger boobs than you."
I get told that I look like someone else or told I look familiar by people even when I haven't met them before. I guess there are that many people in the world, that there is bound to be someone who looks similar...
ooh, loving zee purple ruffles...sooo fun and light for the season ;)))
ppl say the oddest things to me, i couldnt choose one thing
I love your bohemian rock chic style, so there very well might be a twin out there somewhere... such a trend-setter you are! Your look is quite French, so here in Paris similar ladies may stroll along the 'rues de Paris'.
Oddities... someone once asked who was older, me or my sis (for the record, she's nine years younger than me).
Georgeous blog and outfits...I've featured one on my blog today :)
it's funny that someone told me the same thing, but he says i can nvr bump into the other ME, when i feel sad, "she" feels happy and vice versa.that's crazy ,right?but i kinda believe it ..somehow

I seem to attract people saying odd things to me,
I'll try and remember some of them ;)
I think it would be cool to meet a stranger who looks exactly like you! I have a sister but we don't look alike at all. You have the most gorgeous hair I've ever seen by the way! xxoxoxoo
P.S. I'll let you know what I think of Match Point after I watch it!
I have once been asked if I am Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) from "Friends". Hehe. Go figure, I look nothing like her.;)) But this was almost 20 years ago in the middle of Arizona at a gas station and I was blond then.;) The thing is that as it happened at a few occasions after that as well, it stuck in my mind.;)
Hope your Monday is lovely gorgeous; thank you for your always wonderful comments at my place.;))
xoxo

i've been told the same!!!!!!!!
about 7 years ago i was told in highschool - the new girl in grade 10 is your twin.
7 years later we are best friends...
erika your hair is whimsical.
x
It's like having a deja-vu! You can't believe your seeing it, or thinking, whatever it is, haha!

you have a long and beautiful hair!
and the purple is perfect on you!
xx
I've been told same thing, weird theory, I prefer to think that we are really unique :)
cute violet bag!
I love the effects you did on this photo! And really love those shades of purple. If she is out there, when you find her, do post a pic :)
When I'm out with hubby, he often gets mistaken for someone else, people have actually started conversations with him then stopped when he gives them a puzzled look.
xx Ela
You have such a lovely blog, hope you don't mind me adding you to my blogroll :)
from where I come from, we believe that there exist seven people who look-alike. they are not the same but are identical. with that said, i reckon there's still six identical "you" out there :D
That purple top is so lovely :) And with regards to twins, everyone always mistakes my older brother and me for being identical twins! We have roughly the same hair, although he dresses a tad more 'grown up' than me.
That would be a little weird...
My first year of college, I was told that I have a twin running around somewhere on campus. I mean, my best friend even confused this other girl with me once! I've never seen or met her though.
and I thought MY hair is long...!
let's see...weird thing told to me about me...em...someone thought I could read his mind:)
(*no, I could not!)
ahh having an identical twin would be so much fun! Switching places all the time/dressing each other up :P
Also, love the purple top in the photo and your hair looks so long and gorgeous! I'd probably lose patience with my hair v. quickly if it were that long :[
oh Erika your hair is so joyful in length having a twin would make it twice as nice ;D
who is this sister?^^ very very cute showcase!!I love your hair as well
xoxo honey!
I love the contrast between your hair and that top! The colour is beautiful. :)
Great photo there!
I 've been told I look like Hayden Panettiere (the cheerleader from Heroes)..
I mean, seriously..??? :PPP
I 've also been told I have a look-alike somewhere... who knows!
xxx
I thought I saw myself on a plane once. Seriously. I going to New Zealand in 2003 and I saw this girl walking down the aisle and I was like, "isn't that me?" and then I was like, "Wait I'M me and I'm here...who was that?" I never did find out.
Although my other twin is Jessica Simpson, as I won her look-alike contest and met her. Hilarious.
My mom's always saying the same thing. I wonder if it's true!
That's pretty interesting!
Hmm... some older people ask me "Where I'm from", and when I say "I'm Canadian" they don't seem satisfied so they ask, "Where are you originally from" haha.
Thanks for all your support Erika, my hits are up because of YOU!
its a really nice photo sweetie. what are you doing this summer?
take care x
That's so uncanny and cool love the photo manipulation and your hair in it too !!!
xo LOVE xo TinyDancer
lol...
wow your hair is amazingly long. how pretty :)
Raez No they didn't!!!! woahhh. You're hotter I'm sure. ;)
Lissa Yes definitely!!! Maybe we can teach each other Photoshop stuff too on Skype?
Hanna Avril Lavigne, pre-punk or after?
Jennifer Fabulous The same thing happens to me all of the time. It would be funny to meet my twin and find her the complete opposite of me... hmmm?
Protege Lisa Kudrow!! ahah awesome :)
OK, that's a little crazy.. different people have told you that they know someone who could be your twin?! As a twin, it def. has its positives and negatives.. but the benefits outweigh the less than desirable factors (i.e. people categorizing or referring to you as a singular unit). That would be great to have two Erika's though.. plus you get double the wardrobe! :)
p.s. Did you watch the unseen footage episode? Kinda boring, but still entertaining, I suppose. :) Miami Social is premiering soon!
xo, Becs
people always think they know me when they first meet me. either i am bad with faces or they're convinced there are tons of people out there that look like me. i usually first ask oh maybe you met my sisters hah
xx
hahaha thats so strange!
You have an amazing blog.. wow.
I get alot of weird comments.. but there is one in particular that stands out. People always look at me and then go.. 'elf!'
Apparently I give off a Lord of the Rings vibe! x
A lady actually once told me I looked exactly like her daughter, speaking of twins! :)
haha.... guess what i watched just last night.... Parent Trap lol.... wouldnt it be cool if it were like that

Vi from Cali
i know the feeling..i'm never really told that i have a twin, but then i think i ran into her at the Museum of modern art in NYC. We looked at each other, then gasped..didn't say anything..walked away, turned and looked at each other again, and the whole while her bf just kept staring with his jaw dropped. Weirdest thing ever.
Here's to hoping you find your twin :)
I hope your twin is clothing herself in equally gorgeous color (:
wow, what awesome purples! i'm the image of my ma apparently, so my twin's not too far away to find!
Hi Erika :)
Once a couple of friends told me that they saw me at the subway the day before and that they wave to me and I didn't wave back. They told me that I was very rude to them!
Well the thing is, It wasn't me... I hate subways, I don't even take the subway (I really hate it), but until today they don't believe me and they swear it was me LOL
So, like you Erika, I guess I have a twin somewhere, and she does ride the subway. ;)
Kisses
Su
In primary school and secondary school people have thought that I have a twin, the funny part is that in high school the girl they thought was my twin actually had a twin! I also love your hair.
perhaps we're twins?
haha just kidding! hope all is well and you're enduring this awful miami heat!

loving this colour on you.
and your hair, i cannot say it enough. ha
the oddest thing? well.. when someone told me that i'm skinny.. well, i think i'm not!
xx
Mmmmm purple = royalty! I loves it.
As I do raiding grandmas attic/wardrobe :)
Wierdest thing I've heard (about my time in Kenya) "Did you guys have lions in your backyards?" Of course, numbskull. I trained them for the circus infact :D
And (whilst in Australia), I have literally been asked if we ride kangaroos to school. Seriously. Hell yes we do. Now where's Skippy gone to?
Lol!
Ooh, and I agree with you...how could he get away with the crime? p.s. I too am obsessed with JRM (it seems we have very similar taste in men cough*Bale*cough :)
It freaks me out when people tell me I have a twin somewhere..I just think, ok why is this person going around with my face and where are they???
ps- love your bag!!!

i've been told that too. my boss thought i ignored her over the weekend in santa monica. i was like no i was in venice. hahahaha so weird that we have twins! i want to meet my twin! ;)
I once was told by a doctor that my ears are so big he compared them to a rabbit's ears.
I ADORE your blog! you have such a unique style!
i'm so glad i found this blog!

I also think I have a "twin" somewhere.

I love your hair even. He is long and beautiful.

\ I would be freaked out if I learned I had a long lost twin sister. I'm sometimes told that me and my mom could be twins. I find it very odd. I mostly hear it from guys so I guess it's their pick-up line. I usually just laugh. :)
far out you have awesome hair!
Hah that is an odd one, I wonder if your "twin" gets the same thing? Hmm the strangest thing recently someone has told me was after they asked if my lashes were fake (no) they then said that long lashes mean laziness, so that must mean I'm lazy - so weird!
A little girl once asked me for my autograph, and I didn't want to embarrass her by asking who she thought I was or telling her she made a mistake, so I just scribbled some illegible thing on the paper she handed to me. I think I made her day, but I still don't know who she thought I was...
Love the purple bag :)

Stephanie Balenciaga ss '04 at Givenchy Haute Couture sounds like piles of luxurious clouds <3
Blicious You're the second person to be spotted as a "twin" being rude.. woah!
hot beauty health LOL such a guyyyy line ahahah :)
liana, Clara Thanks on the hair <3
MizzJ That sounds so poetic- "long lashes equaling laziness"
katie_d What a sweet story!!! Let me know if you ever find out who she thought you were. ;)
dellamoda thank you :)
jessica SO AM I, as stubborn as a mule... lol!!!
proudly says If she exists, then she truly IS! <3
I get that alot as well. I also constantly get compared to Anne of Green Gables, what with red hair and being from PEI.
Love this mix of colours. Awesomw bag, too.
yep. I've been told I've got a twin sister too. it's quite odd.
Your long hair is so gorgeous, I've been trying to get mine that long for years but to no avail! Any tips? I'll keep my eyes peeled for your twinny..
