Okay, I'm sorry if this is dumb, but I'm completely new to Second Life. I downloaded some clothes from the market place, and now i can't put it on? It says worn, but it's now showing up on my avatar. If anyone could help me that'd be great, thanks.

Are the clothes in a box? See:

Also try rebaking your avatar (under Additonal Helpful Tips):

I think the shortcut in the top right column does this:

Best wishes.

My guess is that you have one of the new MESH avatars. They can only wear clothes designed for them and possibly a few fitted mesh and non rigged mesh items such as shoes. They don't wear the traditional "legacy avatar" clothes. You will need to switch to one of those avatars if you want to wear a larger wardrobe.

 

The legacy avatars are hopefully in your inventory in the library section. I forgot exactly how it all works now, but I did a post on it. Here it is: http://chicatphilsplace.blogspot.com/2014/05/the-new-sl-avatars-how-do-they-rate.html

Hi, you`re not dumb at all, this has confused quite a few new users.

When you joined sl the avatars you can chose are of 3 types people, vampires and classic. The first 2 types people  and vampires are what experienced users in sl call "the new mesh avatars" they work a bit differently to the "classic" avatars. Any of the classic avatars will be able to wear the clothes you`ve bought. The mesh av`s are very hard to customize.
