b) Dress for the weather

d) Don’t dress like others!
e) The right clothes for the right occasion

All about clothes

(1) ___________
When you choose your clothes you should remember that how you dress and what
you wear are very important. Your body language and the clothes you wear make
93% of a first impression and, of course, you want to make a good impression.

(2) ___________
When you go shopping, think about what you want to buy before you leave the
house. You shouldn’t just buy something because you like it. You should also decide
when you could wear it.

(3) ___________
When you go to work, don’t wear the same clothes as you do at home. For every
situation there are the right clothes and the wrong ones. For an interview, you
should wear a suit or a smart skirt. For a party, you can wear jeans and a T-shirt.

(4) __________
Of course the weather also influences the clothes we wear. Remember that boots
and a jacket are great when it’s snowy, but not a good idea when it’s lovely and hot.

(5) __________
How do you choose what to wear? Sometimes people wear the same clothes as their
friends or a famous actor or actress they like. But what you wear should show who
you are!
