× I prefer to wear comfortable yet fashionable clothes, for example wearing hoodies and maybe with some sweatpants.
✓ I prefer to wear comfortable yet fashionable clothes, for example hoodies and maybe some sweatpants.
The gerund 'wearing' after 'for example' is unnecessary and awkward. Use the base noun phrase 'hoodies' to list examples of clothes. Also remove the preposition 'with' before 'some sweatpants' because you are listing items, not describing combination. Suggestion: Use noun phrases after 'for example' when listing items.
× I prefer to wear comfortable and casual clothes because I was prioritised my comfort when it comes to fashion.
✓ I prefer to wear comfortable and casual clothes because I prioritize my comfort when it comes to fashion.
The original mixes past tense 'was prioritised' with present habitual context. The speaker means a current habitual preference, so use present simple 'prioritize' and active voice. Also 'was prioritised' is passive and awkward here; use active voice 'I prioritize'. Suggestion: Match tense to present habitual context and use active voice.
× For example, a pair of my hoodies with some jeans and add some jewelleries to make my outfit look better.
✓ For example, I wear a hoodie with some jeans and add some jewellery to make my outfit look better.
The original sentence fragments lack a proper verb phrase and improperly uses 'a pair of my hoodies' (a hoodie is singular) and 'jewelleries' (uncountable 'jewellery'). Use 'I wear' and 'add' to form a complete sentence and use correct nouns: 'a hoodie' and 'jewellery'. Suggestion: Ensure subject + verb structure and correct noun forms.
× I do like wearing T-shirts, but I usually wear it at home while going out.
✓ I do like wearing T-shirts, but I don't usually wear them when I go out.
Pronoun 'it' is singular while referring to plural 'T-shirts'; use 'them'. Also the meaning is likely reversed: wearing T-shirts at home but not when going out, so use negative 'don't usually' and 'when I go out' for clarity. Suggestion: Match pronoun number to noun and clarify time expressions.
× I always wear hoodies, long sleeve shirts and many more.
✓ I always wear hoodies, long-sleeve shirts and more.
'Many more' is informal and vague; 'more' or 'other items' is better. Also 'long sleeve' should be hyphenated as 'long-sleeve' when used as a compound adjective before a noun. Suggestion: Use concise lists and correct compound adjective punctuation.
× Yes, I almost spent three hours on finding my clothes that I actually am satisfied with it because I like to match my outfits with the clothes that I'm choosing and by that I can wear it and match it elements by elements so that.
✓ Yes, I almost spend three hours finding clothes that I am actually satisfied with because I like to match my outfits; that way I can wear and match items element by element.
The speaker describes a habitual action, so use present simple 'spend' rather than past 'spent'. Remove unnecessary prepositions ('on finding' -> 'finding') and avoid redundant pronouns ('it'). 'Elements by elements' is incorrect; use 'element by element' or 'item by item'. Simplify and split into clearer clauses. Suggestion: Use present simple for habitual actions and simplify phrasing.
× Well, this actually depends on the events and the occasion.
✓ Well, this actually depends on the event and the occasion.
'Events' and 'occasion' are redundant together; choose singular or make both plural for consistency. 'The event and the occasion' is awkward; 'the event or the occasion' or 'the events and occasions' works. Here singular 'event and occasion' is clearer. Suggestion: Keep number consistent and avoid redundant nouns.
× On weekdays I usually have nothing to do and I always stay at home, while on weekends I usually go out with my friends or family.
✓ On weekdays I usually have nothing to do and I usually stay at home, while on weekends I go out with my friends or family.
Repetition 'always' is too strong and conflicts with 'usually' used elsewhere; use 'usually' consistently. Present simple is appropriate for habitual actions; adjust adverbs for consistency. Suggestion: Keep adverb usage consistent for habitual routines.
× I love darker color of clothes because it's just suits my vibes and I am feeling more confident on wearing that colour and I feel more relaxed.
✓ I love darker-coloured clothes because they suit my vibe; I feel more confident and more relaxed wearing that colour.
Use 'darker-coloured clothes' (hyphenated compound adjective and plural agreement). 'It's just suits' is incorrect; use 'they suit' to agree with plural 'clothes'. 'My vibes' is informal; 'my vibe' is more natural. Use 'wearing that colour' without 'on'. Suggestion: Ensure subject-verb agreement and use natural collocations; adjust punctuation to improve clarity.
