I look like my sister, Elena. She's got brown eyes and long hair. However, she has curly hair
and I've got straight hair. She's shorter than me. I'm five foot seven and she's five foot four.
When we're together, everyone knows we are sisters.
 
Blog entry: 
My brother and I look alike because we're identical twins. We've got green eyes and dark
hair. But we have different hairstyles. He cuts his hair short, but I like to grow my hair. I'm
also a little heavier than my brother. We don't really have the same interests. I like music, but
he prefers sports.

InterviewerSo Leslie, tell me, are you noticing any interesting new styles at the moment?
LeslieWell, . . . there are always new styles but – and this is interesting – I'm noticing that
young women are wearing black dresses to weddings. You know, I'm going to a lot of
weddings these days – it seems like all my friends are getting married – and all the women
wear black. Sometimes even the bridesmaids wear black! Uh, I guess everybody wants to look
skinny, and black makes you look thinner.
InterviewerSo what do you think of this style?
LeslieActually, I like it. I mean, I'm a little heavy, and I like looking thinner.

InterviewerEmery, how do you like the new styles these days? Are there any styles that you
like particularly?
EmeryWell, let's see . . . a lot of women are wearing really high heels, you know, like four
inches high or more. Uh, and sometimes even higher, when they wear those thick soles, you
know, uh, what do you call them?
InterviewerDo you mean platforms?
EmeryYeah, right, platforms.
InterviewerSo, do you like platforms and heels?
EmeryActually, I like high heels a lot. I think women look great in them. I have to say, though,
that sometimes I worry that my girlfriend is going to fall and hurt herself.

InterviewerSo, Kara, are there any interesting new styles that you're seeing lately?
KaraWell, something I always notice is young guys wearing baggy jeans. Actually, it's not a
new style. I think it started like 10 or maybe even 20 years ago. But some styles just never go
away. And some women are even wearing them now.
InterviewerSo do you like them?
KaraNot at all. I think guys just look really heavy in them.
InterviewerWhat about the women?
KaraSame thing. I mean, most women just look better in tighter jeans – what do you call them?
Uh, skinny jeans. Baggy jeans don't look good on women – or men, for that matter.

InterviewerSo what new styles are you seeing these days, Franz? Anything you like?
FranzLet's see. Hmm . . . Well, I work in an office, and a couple of years ago, the men usually
wore white shirts, or maybe light blue, but lately things are different.
InterviewerHow so?
FranzWell, we're wearing different colors – like soft green, pink, and yellow shirts, and you
know, colors like that.
InterviewerSo what do you think? Do you like the new look?
FranzYeah, I really do. I really like wearing all these colors. And you know, it's a lot more fun to
choose my clothes in the morning. I spend a lot of time choosing shirts and ties.

What clothes are "in" today among your friends?


Skinny jeans, bright sweaters, and hats are trendy.

What clothes are going out of style? – Long skirts are becoming dated.

What styles of shoes are your friends wearing? – Colored sneakers are popular with my

In many places across the U.S., teenagers don't have to wear school uniforms. However, at my

daughter's school most teens wear the same thing – jeans. Jeans always seem trendy, and

never dated. Nevertheless, some students follow fashion trends and like to wear the "in"

thing. Right now that's baggy sweatpants. No one wears tight black leggings anymore –

they're out of style right now. For boys, it's fashionable to wear cargo pants. They all have

them. Hairstyles seem to be similar, too. Most of the girls have long hair – it's definitely in

style. Boys all have long, sweeping bangs. Bangs are "in." 

In general, most students wear similar clothes and styles. Maybe they have their own uniform

after all.

Give your own answers. Here are some examples.

The "in" look is definitely casual right now. Baggy jeans and T-shirts are very popular. Colorful

T-shirts with logos are out of style. Plain T-shirts are the "in" thing. Colored "high-top" sneakers

are popular, and white sneakers are "out." It's also fashionable to wear glasses with colorful

frames. In general, today's look is cheaper to put together. Last year's trend for designer

clothes was expensive. I couldn't afford it!

There are some interesting trends in fashion right now. Accessories are "in." It's fashionable to

wear colorful costume jewelry, and big scarves are in style. Hats are trendy. Men are wearing

baseball caps and women are wearing big sun hats. Women are carrying big, colorful purses.

Small purses are "out." Black, leather purses for men are trendy, too. High heels are out of
style for women, and flat, comfortable shoes are the "in thing." Men are wearing ankle boots.

People are certainly paying attention to their accessories.
