× I'm really into fashion so I like to wear a baggy jeans, baggy clothes and leather clothes.
✓ I'm really into fashion so I like to wear baggy jeans, baggy clothes and leather clothes.
The phrase 'a baggy jeans' incorrectly uses the singular article 'a' with the plural noun 'jeans'. Jeans is a plural-form noun (or treated as uncountable), so the article should be removed. Suggestion: use 'baggy jeans' or 'a pair of baggy jeans' if a singular item is intended.
× I definitely I definitely prefer to wear casual clothes that are comfortable like sweatpants and sweatshirts because I found being comfy is way more important than looking smart.
✓ I definitely prefer to wear casual clothes that are comfortable, like sweatpants and sweatshirts, because I find being comfy is way more important than looking smart.
There are two issues: repetition 'I definitely I definitely' is redundant (sentence structure error but falls under listed types as subject-verb agreement/tense). The verb 'found' is past tense while the rest is present opinion; it should be present 'find' to match current preference. Also add commas for clarity. Suggestion: remove the repeated phrase and use present tense 'find' when stating a general opinion.
× Yes, I wear T-shirts all the time, even under a sweatshirt because it gives it a stylish look. Also being free to move, that's why I like it.
✓ Yes, I wear T-shirts all the time, even under a sweatshirt because they give a stylish look. Also, being free to move is why I like them.
Pronoun reference is unclear and incorrect: 'it gives it a stylish look' uses 'it' twice without clear antecedents. 'T-shirts' is plural, so use 'they' and 'them'. Also 'being free to move, that's why I like it' is awkward; use 'being free to move is why I like them.' Suggestion: match plural pronouns to 'T-shirts' and use a full clause for clarity.
× It depends on the situation. If I'm going out to get groceries or out running errands or exercising, I'll just wear something comfortable, versatile. But if I'm going to some somewhere like potty, I'll definitely take my time, choose my clothes.
✓ It depends on the situation. If I'm going out to get groceries, running errands, or exercising, I'll just wear something comfortable and versatile. But if I'm going somewhere special, I'll definitely take my time to choose my clothes.
Multiple issues: word order and redundancy ('out running errands' is fine but awkward with 'going out to get groceries or out running errands'); 'comfortable, versatile' needs 'and' for correct coordination. The phrase 'some somewhere like potty' is ungrammatical and likely a wrong word choice; 'potty' is inappropriate and 'somewhere special' fits the context. Also add 'to' before 'choose my clothes.' Suggestion: simplify the list, add conjunctions, and replace incorrect vocabulary.
× Yes, yes. During the weekdays I have to wear formal uniform for my school because it's the school dress code and I have to.
✓ Yes. During the weekdays I have to wear a formal uniform for my school because it's the school dress code.
This sentence has redundancy ('I have to' twice) and article omission: 'formal uniform' generally requires an article 'a' or 'the'. Removing the repeated clause at the end cleans the sentence. Suggestion: use 'a formal uniform' and avoid repeating 'I have to.'
× But during the weekend I like to wear clothes that are casual and comfortable but practical looking.
✓ But during the weekend I like to wear clothes that are casual, comfortable, and practical-looking.
Word order and hyphenation: 'practical looking' should be hyphenated when used as a compound adjective before a noun or rephrased as 'practical-looking.' Also use commas to separate adjectives and include 'and' for the final item. Suggestion: use 'practical-looking' and consistent comma usage in adjective lists.
× I'd say I prefer black and white color because they're clean. They give off the stylish, practical look.
✓ I'd say I prefer black and white colors because they're clean. They give off a stylish, practical look.
'Black and white color' is incorrect because two colors should be plural: 'colors.' Also 'the stylish, practical look' uses an unnecessary definite article; 'a stylish, practical look' or no article is better. Suggestion: use 'colors' and 'a stylish, practical look.'
