Nina:Sophie, why are we here again?

Sophie:I came to find a vintage jacket. Look at this one — only twelve pounds!

Nina:That's a great price. And oversized clothes are a big trend now.

Sophie:Exactly. New clothes are expensive, so I buy second-hand to save money.

Nina:I like these boots, although they're too small for me.

Sophie:That's a shame. Your style is very you, though — you don't copy anyone.
