Copycat friend

A friend of mine keeps copying me- identical clothes, literally the same outfits, shoes, hair etc. I know imitation is flattery etc but I don't find it flattering, just weird.
Aibu for this to make me feel uncomfortable?

If she asks you where you got something tell her it was off eBay, or from a charity shop, or that you've started making your own clothes.

This would make me so angry. Once or twice yeah but I wouldn't engage in such conversation from now on. My mother in law always copies my hair. It Really annoys me because we are in each others pockets anyway. Just grrr.

I had a work colleague who copied me, which was doubly weird because she was a lot older. She even changed her specs to a pair like mine and was very cheesed off when I immediately got a new pair that were a completely different look. It was bizarre and unsettling, especially as she was quite open about it and thought I would like it because we were friendly (I won't say friends as such). Hmm
