First off you're still young enough to experiment with a whole spectrum of style...Your profile indicates that your style alternates with preppy and street....Why don't try a laid back approach...Think that seem mismatched but infact go well together Usually I look to the japan sense of fashion because they are pretty creative in their mode of dressing...

Here's a link.... Hope this helps!!

A lot depends on what image you wish to portray, what personality you have, if you want to remix your current wardrobe or get new. But at a guess, I'd recommend something more sophisticated and cleaner as a young adult. The late teens is an age where the boy becomes a man. So a young adult look without looking too mature may be your answer.

You may be looking at things like a clean blazer with a tee or denim with a shirt. It's a balance of the mature and youthful. If you start with a minimal look, you can add more to see what works and what becomes too cluttered.

A simple trick with colour is to enhance it with other tones. I.e. if you want to darken or lighten a colour, it can use tones of black, grey or white to compliment it. This also creates a look without using too many conflicting colours but it if done right, it won't look monocoloured.

It really depends on how you want to look and what persona you wish to present.

Chester, yea since I'm graduating soon I really want to get away from a "little kid" style to something much more mature but not overly mature. So i really like the examples you gave me. Thank you :)
