B Natural answer

For me, comfort comes first most of the time, but I still think style matters. When I go out, I try to rather than just wear random clothes. If I’m going to work, I want something neat enough to make a good . At the same time, I won’t wear something stiff or tight just because it looks fashionable. I like clothes that fit well, match my mood, and still feel easy to wear. So I try to make each fit both the place and the people I’ll see.
