But you can also look amazing without spending lots of money on your wardrobe. Simply try the following suggestions on for size.
First, make seasonal purchases; that is, you should buy winter coats, leather jackets, bathing suits, and summer dresses at the end of the season. You'll get major discounts as you stock up for the next year.
If you want clothes to wear right now, go to discount stores. They may not be the place to buy an expensive evening dress, but they're perfect for buying things like T-shirts.

3.A beauty contest, or beauty pageant, is based mainly, though not only,
on the physical beauty of the contestants. But often it also includes personality, talent demonstration, and question responses as criteria of judgment.
The origin of modern beauty pageants can be traced to the Miss America Pageant, which was first held in Atlantic City in 1921. This pageant eventually included preliminary eliminations, an evening gown
competition, musical variety shows, and judging by the panel. Still, the contests were at first shunned by middle-class society. Pageants did not become respectable until World War II, when beauty queens were recruited to sell bonds and to entertain the troops. The Miss America Pageant is the largest provider of college scholarships for women in the world. Many trade associations have multi-level beauty contests which select queens as ceremonial representatives. The queens may appear at official receptions to present awards, to represent the industry in festivals, to present consumer information to the public, or even to lobby for the industry. For example the South Carolina Watermelon Queen may do a tour of supermarkets to do tastings of different varieties of watermelons. With the increasing popularity of beauty contests, winners have become role models for many young girls. They aspire to become a beauty queen one day. However, there are also criticisms of beauty contests. Although some contests are not based purely on physical appearance, \contestants are unlikely to win, no matter how talented, intelligent, kind-hearted and educated they are. In addition, since \in these pageants is usually represented by unusually thin women, some people question this concept of beauty. Worse still, if a pageant violates the
religious or cultural practices of a country, it may cause protests and demonstrations.
ABACD V let’s talk Task 1
In the early part of the 20th century, few people paid attention to fashion. It was only the very wealthy who changed their clothing styles to what they thought were the latest fashions of the day. Fashion in the 1900s was designed to give women an hourglass or s-curved figure. This was achieved by using a tightly fitting corset, stiff underwear worn around their hips and waist to make the body look slimmer. Compared to the last century, women's dresses became lighter in construction and material. A popular style in this period was the lingerie dress, a very light white cotton dress with strips of open lace and net. In the 1900s women's hats began to grow larger. A trend in the early part of this decade was to wear them tilted slightly forward. In Europe, men's clothes had become more formal, but the opposite was true in the United States. There the popular style was brightly colored shirts with hard white collars worn under sporty jackets. In the 1900s men's hats continued to be very popular and were worn by both the rich and the poor. When a new type of hat was first introduced, there was often a period when people from different classes wore it. However, after some time usually members of only one class would wear it. In the early 20th century, top hats were typically worn by wealthy people especially at formal occasions, such as weddings and church services. Often they were accompanied by silk gloves and a cane. Poorer people, on the other hand, particularly younger workers, would usually wear cloth caps.

Further listening > Task 1
Stylist: Morning, sir. This chair, please. What can I do for you? Nick:
A simple haircut—short on the back and sides.
Stylist: Very good. I can, of course, do something more fashionable for only $60. Nick:
Sixty dollars! That's highway robbery—twice what I ordinarily pay.
Stylist: Perhaps, sir. But your haircuts haven't been in harmony with your
character. Your hair is at war with your soul. Nick:
I've never heard of such a thing.
Stylist: I'm an expert at matching hairstyles to personalities, if I may say.
Believe me, you're suffering a \Nick:
A disjunction? What the devil is a disjunction?
Stylist: Your hair does not match you. Nick:
This is utter nonsense. However, I'd like to hear how you'd solve this so-called problem.
Stylist: Your character is artistic, imaginative. But your hair is dull. I can
correct that imbalance in seconds. Nick:
OK, let me see what you can do about the... uh... disjunction, as you call it.
Stylist: We're going to use scissors to create peaks, which we'll keep in place
with a liberal helping of gel... This tuft in the back we'll braid into
a pigtail. Now, it's the new you!
Nick:
I love it. It's just like me: imaginative and artistic. Now what are you doing? What's wrong?
Stylist: Something's preventing your hairstyle from being a true fashion
statement. Nick:
For heaven's sake, tell me what's missing.
Stylist: Streaks. By putting in a few yellow streaks in your hair, it will become
a work of art. Streaking will cost you more, but... Nick:
Do it. Forget the cost. But, by the way, what is the total getting to be? How much am I paying to avoid the disjunction?
Stylist: That's... $135. Sir? Sir, are you all right? Oh, he fainted.
CAABA Task 2
John: There goes Camilla. She looks gorgeous today, doesn't she? Her skin is as
smooth as a baby's bottom. Her lips are a perfect Cupid's bow. She must have dozens of admirers. Becky: I wonder what she looks like without all that makeup. She must put it on
with a spoon. It's like a mask. I don't understand what men find so attractive about her. John: Do I detect a hint of jealousy?
Becky: She has nothing for me to be jealous about.
John: I'll bet you believe in those sayings like, \
beholder.\Becky: True beauty comes from within. Natural materials should be enough to bring
it out. John: But do you always stick to those rules? I remember seeing you in the kitchen
with some green substance smeared all over your face. Becky: They were cucumbers. They're natural healers of the skin. Haven't you heard
people say on TV that they soften the skin, wipe out the roughness, and build strength and resilience? John: Yeah, yeah, yeah! They wipe out lines and age signs. Blah, blah, blah! See,
I can even recite that advertisement.
