Clothes are an important part of modern life. it’s hard to imagine how people can live without clothes. there are various styles of clothes nowadays, so people can choose what to wear on different occasions. as for me, i have a good collection of clothes in my wardrobe. there are a couple of school suits which are of classic style. then i have some jeans and t-shirts for casual days. and at last, i have a couple of bright dresses for parties or special occasions. most of all i like wearing ordinary jeans with matching shirts. i think it’s not only convenient but also stylish. as for shoes, i prefer wearing sports shoes or sneakers but i need to wear some classic black shoes to school. i don’t like high heels because they are uncomfortable. i always try to keep my clothes and shoes neat. i think that clothes tell a lot about people and can make a strong impression. so if they are tidy and nice the impression will be positive. the choice of clothes also depends on seasons and weather conditions. in winter, for example, it’s important to have a warm coat and a pair of boots. a jacket and rubber boots would be nice for spring and autumn. however, my favourite time is summer, when everyone can wear light t-shirts and shorts, or sarafan and sandals.
