Unit 1. In and out of fashion

Nowadays I'm living for a short stage in Amsterdam.
In this city, people are used to go by bike to everywhere and in a good or in a bad weather. Because of that, Amsterdammers have adapted the in trends to their common life. For instance, they usually wear raincoats and wonderful hats, due to the rain -always present in Amsterdam-. At this time, "borsalino" hats are the in thing.
On the other hand, women tend to wear slim jeans or trousers into middle-leg boots, because it's more comfortable to ride their bicycles.
The trend which is followed by almost every Amsterdammer is the Retro one. They wear little glasses, old bags and jewels which seem to be from an ancient past.
Men in Netherlands tend to wear in a not usual way: they love strong-coloured trousers (in orange, red or green), elegant shirts and casual shoes. They usually have long hair and comb it with hair gel.
