What To Wear 如何穿着?

One of the biggest shocks when you arrive in a new country can be the clothes people are wearing. You may look fashionable at home, but you suddenly find you are behind the times or simply someone to laugh at when you arrive abroad. With this in mind, let's take a look at teenage fashion in the UK for girls.

One of the things that may shock an outsider most is piercings . These days it is not enough to simply wear rings in your ears. You will see many teenagers with rings in their navel ,or belly button, nose, lip, or even their eyebrow . Ouch!

Girls in the UK pay a lot of attention to how they look

Some girls go for a ‘glam' look. They wear T-shirts from India with sequins and beads . Trousers are usually preferred, blue or black, and the look is finished off with metallic bags and shoes and arms full of bracelets .

Another alternative is the ‘rocker' look. You start with a T-shirt of your favourite band and tight jeans or a long skirt. On top of this you can wear a denim jacket. Jewellery tends to be large and metallic, and to add colour wear a scarf .

If neither of these is for you, why not go ‘sporty'. T-shirts are usually tie-dyed in hot colours. Wear this with long shorts, short jeans or a denim skirt. And on your feet? Beach sandals, of course!

If you prefer something more feminine, there's the ‘girly' look. Skirts are long, to the floor. Wear a top with butterflies or flowers printed on it. In addition, wear ballet shoes and lots of beads!

Finally, how about the ‘Tom Boy' look? Wear flared jeans and a T-shirt with a logo . Don't forget your waistcoat , of course! Use lots of different fabrics if possible, like denim, cord and leather , and high-heel boots to finish off!

Follow the fashion tips above, and you shouldn't feel out of place. However, it's important to remember to wear clothes and choose a look that you feel comfortable with. Don't just be one of the crowd – be yourself!
