× Well, since I'm not a fashion conscious person I always wear simple T-shirt with jeans or maybe shorts.
✓ Well, since I'm not a fashion-conscious person, I always wear a simple T-shirt with jeans or maybe shorts.
Missing hyphen in the compound adjective 'fashion-conscious'; article 'a' needed before singular countable noun 'T-shirt'; comma needed after introductory clause. Suggestion: use hyphen for adjective compounds before nouns and include the correct article for singular countable nouns.
× Depends on occasion.
✓ It depends on the occasion.
Sentence is a fragment lacking a subject and article. Use 'It depends on the occasion' to provide a subject and the definite article 'the' for a specific occasion. Suggestion: avoid fragments; include subject and appropriate articles.
× I would definitely go for something much more comfortable and easy physically move, so simple or causal close is my choice.
✓ I would definitely go for something much more comfortable and easy to move in, so simple or casual clothes are my choice.
Several issues: 'easy physically move' is ungrammatical — correct form is 'easy to move in' (infinitive with preposition). 'causal close' are misspellings: should be 'casual clothes'. Subject-verb agreement: 'clothes are' not 'close is'. Suggestion: use correct collocations (easy to move in), correct spelling, and ensure plural noun 'clothes' agrees with plural verb.
× I always wear T-shirt because I find it quite easy going and they are mostly suitable for any occasions.
✓ I always wear T-shirts because I find them quite easygoing and they are mostly suitable for any occasions.
Countable noun 'T-shirt' should be plural 'T-shirts' when speaking generally; pronoun 'them' must match plural. 'Easygoing' is one word. 'Any occasions' is acceptable but 'any occasion' is more natural. Suggestion: use plural nouns when speaking generally and match pronouns; prefer 'easygoing'.
× Well like I said, I'm not a fashion conscious person so normally when I decide to buy something, especially with fashion items, I tend to only take a really short time to buy some of shirts.
✓ Well, like I said, I'm not a fashion-conscious person, so normally when I decide to buy something, especially fashion items, I tend to only take a very short time to buy some shirts.
Problems: missing hyphen in 'fashion-conscious'; unnecessary preposition 'with' before 'fashion items' — use the noun phrase alone; 'some of shirts' is wrong — use 'some shirts'; 'really short time' better as 'a very short time'. Suggestion: remove unnecessary prepositions, fix articles, and use idiomatic modifiers.
× Well, certainly since I have to go to school regularly, so I need to rely on my school uniform because it is school law.
✓ Well, certainly, since I have to go to school regularly, I rely on my school uniform because it is school policy.
'so' is redundant with 'since' leading to awkward structure — remove 'so'; 'need to rely on' can be simplified to 'rely on'; 'school law' is not idiomatic — use 'school policy' or 'school rule'. Suggestion: avoid redundant conjunctions and use correct collocations.
× Yes, and on the weekends I only wear something called shorts.
✓ Yes, and on the weekends I only wear shorts.
The phrase 'something called shorts' is odd and unnecessary; simply 'wear shorts' is natural. Suggestion: remove unnecessary filler phrases and use direct noun.
× For me, I don't have any special color for shirt, but if I would shift I would go for some black or white because I find it quite suitable for any occasions.
✓ For me, I don't have any special color of shirt, but if I had to choose I would go for black or white because I find them quite suitable for any occasion.
Preposition: 'color for shirt' should be 'color of shirt' or 'color for shirts'; conditional: 'if I would shift' is incorrect — use 'if I had to choose'; 'some black or white' unnatural — use 'black or white'; pronoun agreement: 'them' for plural shirts; 'any occasions' -> 'any occasion' is more natural. Suggestion: use correct prepositions, proper conditional forms (second conditional), and match pronouns to nouns.
