× I tend to wear casual clothes, eye to content, uh, because, uh, wearing uh, such type of clothes, uh, helps me uh, both physically and mentally because I don't uh, feel uh, stiffened and also it enhances my mood as well.
✓ I tend to wear casual clothes, easy to control, because wearing such types of clothes helps me both physically and mentally because I don't feel stiff and it also improves my mood.
The original sentence misuses 'eye to content' (nonsense phrase) and 'wearing uh, such type of clothes' requires plural 'types' when speaking generally (singular/plural issue) but primary correction is making the verb form and adjectives appropriate: 'wearing' as a gerund is correct but 'stiffened' is a past-participial adjective; use 'stiff' to describe a current state. Also 'enhances my mood as well' is redundant; 'also improves my mood' is clearer. Suggestion: remove filler words, use correct adjective forms and match singular/plural for general nouns.
× As I've just mentioned, I genuinely prefer wearing more, uh, cozy and comfortable items, uh, since they are easy to move in and uh, the majority of them are quite stretchy and doesn't and don't make me feel stiff.
✓ As I've just mentioned, I genuinely prefer wearing more cozy and comfortable items since they are easy to move in and the majority of them are quite stretchy and don't make me feel stiff.
The original contains a subject-verb agreement error: 'the majority of them are quite stretchy and doesn't and don't make me feel stiff.' Using both 'doesn't and don't' is incorrect and redundant. The correct auxiliary for plural 'them' is 'don't.' Remove the singular 'doesn't' and extra filler words. Also eliminate extra commas and filler words for clarity.
× I used, uh, to spend hours, uh, choosing what to wear, but at the moment I am more relaxed, uh, about this because I understand that I don't have to show off and to present myself, so I just wear whatever I want.
✓ I used to spend hours choosing what to wear, but at the moment I am more relaxed about it because I understand that I don't have to show off or present myself, so I just wear whatever I want.
The phrase 'used to' is correct for past habitual actions but should be written without extra commas. The expression 'show off and to present myself' mixes parallel structures; use 'show off or present myself' or 'show off and present myself.' Also use 'about it' rather than 'about this' for natural phrasing. Remove filler words for fluency.
× No, really the reason, the reason behind that is that I am studying and working from home, uh, and I do these sort of activities, uh, all the time without any breaks. So I usually wear uh, the same, uh, comfortable style, the same casual style every.
✓ No, the reason behind that is that I am studying and working from home and I do these sorts of activities all the time without any breaks, so I usually wear the same comfortable, casual style every day.
Issues: repetition 'the reason, the reason' and sentence ending 'every' missing noun. Also 'these sort of activities' should be 'these sorts of activities' or 'this sort of activity.' Order of adjectives should be 'comfortable, casual style.' Combine clauses for smoother flow. Add 'day' after 'every.'
× I'd contend that I am absolutely, uh, obsessed with Rose and Beige Hughes, uh, since they are, uh, suitable for uh, any type of event that I go to. So I think they are quite convenient.
✓ I'd say that I am absolutely obsessed with rose and beige hues since they are suitable for any type of event I attend, so I think they are very versatile.
Errors: 'contend' is formal and slightly odd in casual speech; 'I'd say' is more natural. 'Rose and Beige Hughes' is incorrect — likely 'rose and beige hues' (hues = colors). 'Any type of event that I go to' is wordy; use 'any event I attend.' 'Convenient' is not the best collocation for colors; 'versatile' fits better. Remove filler words for clarity.
