× I think I prefer wearing casual comfortable clothes like jeans or soft cotton T-shirts or some sleeveless clothes during the summer because it really suits my daily routine and besides I just to living in my home almost every day and have a solitary life so I think that's really formal.
✓ I think I prefer wearing casual, comfortable clothes like jeans, soft cotton T-shirts, or sleeveless tops during the summer because they suit my daily routine. Besides, I mostly live at home almost every day and have a solitary life, so I think that's really normal.
Errors: incorrect verb form 'to living' should be 'live' (infinitive/verb form), and plural agreement for 'it really suits' should be 'they suit' when referring to clothes. Suggestions: Use the gerund 'wearing' is fine here; change 'to living' to 'live' or 'living' in a correct structure (e.g., 'I mostly live at home' or 'I am mostly living at home'). Also separate sentences for clarity and match pronoun number to 'clothes' (they). Use commas to separate adjectives.
× I think it really depends. Different social occasions.
✓ I think it really depends on the social occasion.
Error: fragment 'Different social occasions.' is incomplete. Suggestion: Combine ideas into one complete sentence using the preposition 'on' to show dependence: 'depends on the social occasion.'
× If I had to attend the meeting or meet my boss, I prefer some decent clothes like suit or high heel shoes.
✓ If I have to attend a meeting or meet my boss, I prefer decent clothes like a suit or high-heeled shoes.
Error: tense mismatch — using conditional 'If I had to' suggests past contrary-to-fact; better use present simple 'have to' for habitual preference. Also article missing before 'suit' and adjective form 'high-heeled'. Suggestions: Use 'a suit' and 'high-heeled shoes' and match tense to habitual preference.
× But when things come to if I just hang out with my friends or in some casual occasion, I prefer some comfortable clothes like I said before.
✓ But when I just hang out with my friends or attend a casual event, I prefer comfortable clothes, as I said before.
Errors: awkward phrase 'when things come to if' is ungrammatical; 'in some casual occasion' should be 'at a casual occasion' or 'a casual event'. Suggestions: Use clearer conjunctions: 'When I hang out with friends' or 'at a casual event', and avoid redundant words like 'some' before 'comfortable clothes' unless necessary.
× Yes, absolutely, because it's really comfy and makes me feel relaxed sometimes and I would always pick up some soft cotton T-shirts and minimalist style, especially during the scorching weather like in the summer.
✓ Yes, absolutely, because they're really comfy and make me feel relaxed sometimes, and I always choose soft cotton T-shirts with a minimalist style, especially in scorching summer weather.
Errors: pronoun/verb agreement — 'it's' refers to singular but 'T-shirts' are plural, so use 'they're' and 'make'. 'Would always pick up' implies conditional; use simple present 'always choose' for habitual action. 'During the scorching weather like in the summer' is awkward; use 'in scorching summer weather'.
× I think it's breathable and makes me comfortable.
✓ I think they're breathable and make me comfortable.
Error: pronoun/verb agreement — 'it' singular vs plural subject 'T-shirts'. Use plural pronoun 'they' and plural verb 'make' to agree with 'T-shirts'.
× Well, I guess so from the most of the time, especially when I had to hang out with my friends, I would always spend a lot of time picking the clothes because I'm a little bit hesitant.
✓ Well, I guess so most of the time. Especially when I have to hang out with my friends, I always spend a lot of time picking clothes because I'm a little hesitant.
Errors: 'from the most of the time' incorrect; use 'most of the time' or 'usually'. Tense mismatch 'had to' should be 'have to' for habitual actions. 'Would always spend' is conditional; use 'always spend'. 'Picking the clothes' unnatural article use; use 'picking clothes'.
× What if I don't give them a perfect impression or something like that?
✓ What if I don't make a perfect impression on them or something like that?
Error: collocation — 'give an impression' is possible but common expression is 'make an impression on someone'. Also pronoun placement: 'on them' clarifies who receives the impression.
× During the week I prefer some smart casual clothes like some suits or high heel shoes to make me feel professional and good impression to other persons.
✓ During the week I prefer smart-casual clothes like suits or high-heeled shoes to help me feel professional and give a good impression to other people.
Errors: 'make me feel professional and good impression to other persons' is ungrammatical. Use 'help me feel professional' and 'give a good impression to other people'. Also pluralize 'suits' and hyphenate 'smart-casual', 'high-heeled'.
× But during the weekend I prefer some jeans or T-shirt which is comfortable and you know, very appropriate to.
✓ But during the weekend I prefer jeans or a T-shirt that is comfortable and, you know, very appropriate.
Errors: article and agreement — 'some jeans' and 'T-shirt which is' mismatch; use 'jeans or a T-shirt that is'. Remove trailing 'to' which is incomplete. Keep relative pronoun 'that' for things. Add article 'a' before 'T-shirt'.
× I think it should be the blue, to be honest.
✓ I think it should be blue, to be honest.
Error: unnecessary definite article 'the' before color. Colors are used without 'the' when stating preference: 'blue' not 'the blue'.
× I think blue is my lucky color and that's the reason why I'm wearing the blue sleeveless clothes today, because I guess it would be Brings me luck and makes me feel peaceful and confident.
✓ I think blue is my lucky color and that's why I'm wearing a blue sleeveless top today, because I guess it brings me luck and makes me feel peaceful and confident.
Errors: 'the blue sleeveless clothes' -> use 'a blue sleeveless top' or 'a blue sleeveless shirt'. Capitalization 'Brings' wrong. 'would be Brings me luck' incorrect modal/verb forms; use simple present 'brings'. Ensure subject-verb agreement.
× Besides, I really like the ocean, so yeah.
✓ Besides, I really like the ocean, so yes.
This sentence is grammatically acceptable; 'so yeah' is informal. Suggested change to 'so yes' for slightly more formal spoken register. No major grammar error.
