Do you ever feel unfashionable?Have you ever wondered how to keep up with new trends?
If you answered yes, then don’t worry! Many people feel they have to dress a certain way.
Fashion is a reflection of your character. Don’t let other peoples’ opinions influence how you dress! It’s important not to feel forced into the fashion choices you make. You may not be able to carry off a new look if it doesn’t suit your character.
Fashion should be fun so don’t be afraid to try out new styles. If you don’t feel brave enough to try a whole new wardrobe, accessories are the answer! By changing only your accessories, you’ll be saving money and then you’ll be able to keep up with the newest trends.
Adding accessories such as a bag, a belt, a hat, a scarf or jewellery can really change your look. For example, a pair of jeans and a T-shirt can be made into several different outfits for different events.
Currently, the sporty look is very popular. You may want accessories with a baseball cap and sweatbands or by carrying a sports bag.
To add some glamour, you could wear a silk scarf as a belt. You could also wear jewellery such as wire bracelets and some dangling earrings. These will transform your look into a glamorous gypsy style.
Whatever style you choose to follow, remember that fashion should be fun and most importantly it should be about you!

行文點評
文章以兩個問句開始,向讀者發(fā)問,提到了現(xiàn)在很流行的一個話題:fashion。作者假設讀者的回答是肯定的,從而在下一段引出作者自己的觀點:穿衣要有自己的風格。
在第三段中,作者先給時尚下了一個定義: Fashion is a reflection of your character。接著提出文章的主題:飾品可以幫你趕上潮流。進而作者提出了幾個用飾品裝扮時尚的例子,使得觀點更加令人信服。文章結尾作者用Whatever引導的一個讓步狀語從句再一次重申:無論選擇怎樣的方式,潮流應該是適合自己的。
好文妙譯
裝飾品的重要性
是否你也曾覺得自己很老土?是否你曾經(jīng)想過怎樣才能趕上潮流的步伐?
即使你的答案是肯定的,也不用擔心!很多人都覺得他們自己必須有自己的著裝方式。
潮流是個性的反映。不要讓別人的觀點影響你的著裝!不要覺得自己是被迫選擇潮流,這是最重要的。如果和自己的個性不符,你根本就不會看起來煥然一新!
潮流應該是很有趣的,所以不要害怕嘗試新款。如果你沒有足夠的勇氣完全更新衣櫥,裝飾品就是你所需要的!僅換換裝飾品,不但可以省錢,而且你也可以跟上最新潮流。
像包、皮帶、帽子、絲巾和珠寶這些裝飾品真的可以讓你看起來完全不同。例如,一條牛仔褲和一件T恤就可以有許多搭配以適應不同場合的需要。
現(xiàn)在非常流行運動型裝扮?;蛟S你需要配個棒球帽、吸汗巾或者背個運動包。
想看起來更加魅力十足,你可以把絲巾當成皮帶用。你也可以戴些像手鐲和晃晃蕩蕩的耳環(huán)之類的飾品。這些都會讓你看起來就像迷人的吉普賽人。
無論你選擇怎樣的方式,記住,潮流應該是很有趣的,最重要的是潮流應該適合你自己!
