时尚宣言

to a friend. “She’s the one wearing braces – the pink ones.”
I realized at that moment that braces are now a fashion
statement. Can you imagine?

in: 时髦的

But then, did you ever imagine that plastic shoes with
holes would become so popular?
But that’s the great thing about fashion. You’re never
quite sure what’s going to become the “in” thing.

bangs: 刘海

statement. Women’s hairstyles
are long and straight one

next. Bangs are in. Oh wait, no
… bangs are out.

One thing is for sure. It’s a

lot of work keeping up with the
latest fashion trends – and
expensive! Maybe the best way
to make a fashion statement is
to do your own thing and not
follow fashions at all!
