Perhaps she feels you are trying to control rather than to advise. Back off just a tad and wait for her to come to you and ask for your opinion. She is growing up and, boy howdy, young teenagers think they know everything anyway so your advice most likely will fall on deaf ears. Be there for her but you may have to wait out these teenage years.

You cant. Eventually she'll get hurt, and she'll need to talk to someone. & you have to be there for her. When that happens, you'll earn her trust again, and she'll come to you when she has to talk and vent.
I know it prolly sucks, but you were a teenager once. You should know how it is, and the pain you go throught, and how you wanna fit in, and all that other stuff.
All you can do is wait for now. She needs her time with her friends. Dont worry though, your relationship will get better eventually.
Goodluck
