EXPRESSING OPINIONS (10º STUDENTS)

Read this opinion about fashion and then post your opinion about a different topic. Take into account the basic structure of the text.

IS FAHION IMPORTANT? By Ernesto.

Some people think that fashion is very important, but in my opinion, it isn't.
First of all, fashionable clothes can be expensive, and I prefer to spend my money on music or books. Second, I like wearing clothes that show my personality. Some people think you have more friends if you are fashionable. But I choose my friends because they make me laugh, not because they are wearing designers jeans!
In conclusion, I think we should wear what we like and forget what's fashionable at the moment.
