地道美语听力播客:Picking a Wardrobe

I'm one of those people who doesn't have much of a fashion sense. I mean, I know that you shouldn't wear a pink shirt with green pants, but beyond that I'm pretty much a basket case when it comes to picking my wardrobe. I have plenty of short- sleeve and long-sleeve dress shirts, some have a button-down collar, and some have a shirt pocket in them. I also own some more casual shirts with a collar, and a ton of t-shirts with just about every logo you can think of. I have a couple of good pairs of black slacks for formal occasions, along with khakis and jeans for more informal events. Naturally, I have one nice suit to wear to weddings, funerals, and job interviews, with a suit coat, tie, a belt with a nice-looking buckle¹, and pants. I also own a sports coat, but I don't use it much. Well, I better stop talking and start dressing². I'm late for work!
