2. IULIANA I identify myself with the female gender , In the picture I’m wearing a shirt , jeans , leather jacket , bed hair , quite casual clothes , fitted for a day at university , As far as expressing my female gender goes , I often wear dresses , skirts , I put make-up on, I listen to soppy music I don’t think I borrow something from the other gender , except from clothes (shirts , boots , coats) I believe my look qalifies me a a ordinary person , as I don’t really wear something to make me stand out , I don’t use my clothes to make a statement My appearance is mainly influenced by the other people of my age , the way they dress up . Also the fashion here , in the UK which is more relaxed , laid-back , than what people in my country use to wear. I don’t think I would like any major changes to my appearance , not in the near future though.

3. NATALIA I identify myself with the female gender expressing it in the way I act, I think, I believe, I dress. The way I dress usually represent my mood, my emotions, my state of mind. My personal style it is diversed, unbalanced sometimes casual,sporty with a touch of masculinity but it changes day to day. The Coventry atmoshpere inspires me to go for a very casual outfit. Today it is consist of my most comfies pieces I have in my wardrobe. The bag gives a touch of feminity but the sneakers contradicts it. I added the red scarf for a splash of colour and also for expressing my passion for life. I get my style inspiration from my mother(right now I am wearing her scarf), music and movies. I do not want to change something at my appearance right now and turning into something I am not or losing my identity.

Furthermore, my dad is strict, he always have lots of rule to claim I need to be a polite and gentlewoman lady.
