Hello, lovely.
I'm Maria, and my name is Rory, and we are the host of the IELTS speaking for Success podcast, the podcast that aims to help you improve your speaking skills as well as your listening skills.
Along the way, we started this super podcast because we want you to use high level words, collocations, phrasal verbs, and gorgeous grammar in your everyday English and in your IELTS speaking exam.
Rory, what have you been doing recently?
Quite a lot, actually.
I've got a teacher training course to write, and then actually, I've got two teacher training courses to write, and I've been writing my diploma as well, so it's quite a lot, really.
Oh, my God, you're gonna wear yourself out.
Oh, it's interesting that you talk about wearing myself out, because today we're gonna talk about clothes.
Yes, dear listener, in speaking part one, they can ask you questions about clothes.
Rory, are clothes and clothing fashions important to you?
Not really.
I'm not much of a fashionista, but recently I've been looking at some cool stuff that keeps being advertised on instagram, and I've been taking a bit more of an interest, but it's definitely not the most important thing for me.
What different clothes do you wear for different situations?
Well, I suppose I'll dress formally for proper work occasions, although, and then informally whenever it's just day to day work.
I'm quite lucky in the sense that I don't have to wear a uniform or a suit and tie or anything like this for the kind of work that I do right now.
Do you wear different styles of clothes now compared to ten years ago?
Oh, definitely, yeah.
I used to wear clothes that were much baggier, for example, but now I suppose they're a bit more close fitting, a bit better fitting in general, probably.
Indeed, after some prompting from you, Maria, I decided to reassess my wardrobe.
So it's panned out quite well in that sense.
