Barbara has signed a contract with Angel Music, a famous record label（唱片公司） in Hong Kong. Her manager, Lily, is aware of the importance of a singer's image（形象）but initially has no idea what Barbara should wear while on stage. Lily decides to ask her professional stylist（設計師）friend Coney to create the best image for Barbara.
Lily has arranged an appointment with Coney for Barbara.
Barbara: Hi Lily, how are you? What's the schedule for today?
Lily: You desperately need a makeover（改變外觀）!
Barbara: A makeover? I think my style looks just fine. Don't you think so?
Lily: No way! I have to create a stylish and chic（有型的）look for you. Look at what you are wearing now! Who believes that you are a rising pop star? My friend has a jewelry shop around the corner. She designs and sells costume jewelry（人造首飾）and should be able to give you some style tips.
Barbara is excited about the opportunity to meet up a professional stylist. Lily thinks that Barbara has high potentials as a good singer but definitely had to improve her outlook. Coney is very confident that she can help to create the best image for her. Barbara is very impressed with the large variety of jewelry in the store. The materials that Coney uses to make her very own jewelry include precious stones（寶石）, crystal, sterling silver（純銀）, shell and many more.
Barbara: I am impressed by your unique collection of jewelry! Necklaces（項鍊）, bracelets（手鐲）, earrings and hats.
Lily: Coney, can you give her a glamorous（迷人的）makeover using your accessories? She is going to have her first performance（表演）tomorrow.
Coney: Sure! You have come to the right place!
Coney tells Barbara to choose clothing that can represent her free spirit while staying stylish. One of the big advantages of wearing the right jewelry is that one can stay up with the latest looks. That's why Coney is choosing the jewelry for Barbara carefully.
Coney: They are mainly vintage（古色古香的） style jewelry.
Barbara: I read from a fashion magazine that the term "vintage" means nostalgic（懷舊）style!
Coney: Do you like this one?
Barbara: Not really. I prefer something simple. How about these hair clips（髮夾）?
Lily: No way. I am confident that we will find something right for you.
Coney: How about this one?（Coney chooses a necklace made of fresh water pear）
Barbara: Yes! It's simple but elegant. This pearl gives me feminine（女性）charm（魅力）.
