IELTS writing task 2 - Essay - Buying fashionable clothes is wasteful

Question: Buying fashionable clothes is wasteful because people don't need new clothes all the time. Clothes should be bought and used more wisely. Do you agree?

Vogue is blindly followed by people of all age groups and  income groups. Usually folks wear new clothes, accessories to attract the other gender and for this individuals have become shopaholic and continue to buy new dresses without thinking wisely, which is a wrong approach as clothes should be purchased and used more wisely as there are many reasons to support this argument.

Clothes need to be worn to cover the body and not to show status but this has become a statement in all the societies. People buy clothes without considering their budget. When they forget to cut the corner then they land themselves in the pool of troubles. For instance, when people their shipping bills with credit cards then, they have to return the actual sum with some interest to the bank, This actually leads to over expenditure and sometimes to debts. When these are difficult to pay then that bring stress.

In addition to this, people need to buy clothes not according to the trend but according to their body shapes as well as taste. A cloth which does not fits a body will make a beautiful person ugly whereas, a cloth which is very well fitted will enhance a person's personality. For example, Mallika Sherawat was highly criticized for wearing  a wrong and ill fitted dress in the 2019th Cannes festival. Individuals need to take a lesson from these incidents and buy dresses accordingly.

Hammering the last nail of the coffin, I would like to say that beauty lies in the eyes of beholder ad this is not affected by the outer appearance of the person. People need to understand that clothes are to cover the body not to reflect social status so wise decision need to be taken at the time of purchase.

Dear Sir 

I was one of your tenant who was living in Flat Number 11, New Heights. I have emptied your flat in the month of June and was waiting to get my security deposit. I have called you a number of times and your no response becomes a reason of writing you this epistle.

The flat, when I left was in very good condition. All the walls were clean and there were no dirt spots on the walls. The furniture that you gave me at the time of lease was in good condition and is not broken or damaged. So, according to lease agreement, I have to return speck and span flat to you and this is what I did. Now, it is your turn to return the favor and follow the rules.

I request you to return my deposit in some days otherwise, I will be left with only one option and I have to knock the doors of the authorities to get it. I hope you do not want me to call the copes to settle this matter. Being hopeful to get my deposit soon.

Yours sincerely
