トレンド、オピニオン/trends & opinions

Hello!

How are you? Today, let's begin writing about trends or opinions, with a focus on fashion.

What do you think of these clothing and hair styles from these different times? Are they like any styles that you see now, or are they different? 

Think of something that is popular now - any kind of music, (or even a band or singer), a TV show or movie, a game or sport, a place, or - as you see in the pictures above - a kind of clothing style that is popular now. When did it start getting popular? Where did you first hear about it? Do you like it too? 

Write 2 paragraphs about it and what you think of it. (It's okay not to like it - you can write about what you don't like about it). 

Good luck - and see you next time!
