× I prefer casual clothes because they are comfortable and relaxed, you know? I like to keep things, umm, simple, uh, especially when I'm going out for daily activities like go to the class or meeting up with friends, uh, casual clothes are more comfortable.
✓ I prefer casual clothes because they are comfortable and relaxed. I like to keep things, umm, simple, uh, especially when I'm going out for daily activities like going to class or meeting up with friends; uh, casual clothes are more comfortable.
The phrase 'like go to the class' uses the base verb after 'like' when a gerund is required. Use 'going' to indicate the activity. Also 'the class' is usually 'class' without the definite article in this context. Use punctuation to separate clauses for clarity.
× Honestly it depends. For occasional events and university, I prefer to wear smart and formal clothes like suits Uh. But for daily life and everyday outfits, I prefer casual clothes because they are comfortable and easy to wear.
✓ Honestly, it depends. For occasional events and university, I prefer to wear smart, formal clothes like suits. But for daily life and everyday outfits, I prefer casual clothes because they are comfortable and easy to wear.
Add a comma after 'Honestly' for natural speech rhythm. 'Smart and formal' is redundant; use 'smart, formal' with a comma if both adjectives apply. 'Uh' is filler and should be removed in written correction.
× I can pair them with jeans, shorts and skirts. Uh, actually, they are umm, easy to wash and wear. So for everyday activities I umm, choose them.
✓ I can pair them with jeans, shorts, and skirts. Actually, they are, umm, easy to wash and wear. So for everyday activities I, umm, choose them.
The original is mostly correct. Added Oxford comma for clarity. Minor punctuation fixes improve readability. 'Uh' removed; leaving one filler 'umm' kept as spoken trait.
× Yes, I do spend quite a lot of time on choosing my outfits because I want to look best and fashionable and so when I want to go somewhere, I devote a lot of time on selecting and matching my outfits and accessories.
✓ Yes, I do spend quite a lot of time choosing my outfits because I want to look my best and fashionable, so when I want to go somewhere, I devote a lot of time to selecting and matching my outfits and accessories.
Do not use 'on' before gerunds like 'choosing' here; omit 'on'. Use the phrase 'look my best' (possessive) rather than 'look best'. Use 'devote time to' not 'devote time on'.
× Yes I do, on weekdays I prefer formal and professional outfits for university but on weekends I prefer more comfortable and casual clothes like jeans and AT shirt because I like to feel free and relaxed on weekends.
✓ Yes, I do. On weekdays I prefer formal and professional outfits for university, but on weekends I prefer more comfortable and casual clothes like jeans and a T-shirt because I like to feel free and relaxed on weekends.
Use 'a T-shirt' (singular countable) rather than 'AT shirt'. Also add commas and capitalize sentence start. 'AT' appears to be a typo; corrected to 'a T-shirt'.
× I like black because it looks more stylish and fashionable and black clothes usually look smart and confident and even black goes with almost every color so we can mix mix it with.
✓ I like black because it looks stylish and fashionable. Black clothes usually look smart and confident, and black goes with almost every color, so we can mix it with other colors.
Avoid redundancy: 'more stylish and fashionable' is unnecessary; 'stylish and fashionable' suffices. 'Mix mix it with' is repetitive and incomplete; specify 'mix it with other colors.' Break into shorter sentences and add commas for clarity.
