You should wear what you want but remember - fashion first!
For me it's....
lemon v neck cashmere jumper (reflection- safety first)
shiney lycra gloves I got from an op-shop (for looks)
boat shoes (so comfortable and inexpensive)
bike shorts (c'mon I know you got some)
elbow pads (yellow plastic cup type work best)
wrist protectors (the ones your sister uses roller blading)
Helmet - I have a really cool waterski helmet from he 80's so cool retro
I have a brown suede jacket with tassles and rhinesones that really looks a treat - keep away from rain!
In winter I wear pants and gumboots.

oh - and don't forget the cute little squid lapel pin

Seriously - boots, leathers (one or two piece - your choice), helmet, gloves and if you are really gonna go and tearass around - back protector. Jeans are a no-no unless they have kevlar inserts (like draggin jeans) which are specifically for bikes
