Teen Fashions: What’s Hot?

Looking good can matter a lot when you are a teenager. Luckily， fashion trends in the UK mean that getting the right image doesnt have to cost the earth[天价，昂贵]. Heres a quick guide to which looks are hot this year.

Girls

Flowery and floaty

When the weather is warm， girls can keep cool in thin， floaty fabrics[飘逸的织物]. They can enjoy being feminine[女性的]， too， in pretty， flowery prints.

The 70s are back！

They say that if you keep an item of clothing long enough it will eventually come back into fashion. Thats definitely true in the case of the 1970s hippy[嬉皮士] look. Fringes[刘海]， wide-legged jeans， platform shoes[松糕鞋，厚底鞋] and maxi-length skirts are all the rage among UK teens， topped off by pastel coloured， glittery[闪光的] eye-shadow.

Bright and breezy

Girls who like bold colours can have fun mixing and matching bright， zesty[石灰绿] shades. Colours like pink， orange， turquoise[天蓝色] and lime green are definitely in fashion.

Keep those legs warm

Shorts and mini skirts are no longer restricted to the summer wardrobe. By wearing a pair of tights or leggings underneath， girls can stay warm as well as fashionable in winter.

Jangle those jewels！

The latest jewellery fashion tip is： wear a lot—rings on every finger， chunky[厚重的] bracelets and bangles[手镯] and large， dangly[悬摆的] tribal earings， the bolder the better.

Boys

Dont look smart， look worn out！

Boys jeans and shorts should look distressed or lived-in and， whether they prefer their jeans baggy or skinny， boys like to wear their waistlines low. A simple white T-shirt， worn under a classic chequered or striped[有斑纹的] shirt， completes the look.

Looking lively

Fans of scooters， skateboards and snowboards can dress to impress with cargo pants or skinny jeans accompanied by a T-shirt showing the logo of their favourite brand or stunt hero. Outfits are topped off with a baseball cap or woolen “beanie” hat.

Hip-hop happy

Music is often an inspiration for fashion， and hip-hop music is no exception. Fans like to dress in baggy jeans or joggers， T-shirts and“hoodies” —plus the obligatory[必需的] baseball cap and sneakers[运动鞋].

Splash the cash

Finally， for those who can afford it， designer clothing is a must， especially if the labels are showing.
