Do you often wear jewelry?
Candidato
Yes, I do often wear jewelry. As I'm going to college soon, I've collected a lot of different accessories and pieces of jewelry so that I can change up my style frequently and I can style it according to my outfit for the day. It is easier to make the outfit look good with jewelry.

What type of jewelry do you like?
Candidato
I usually go for gold or rose gold jewelry. That is because I am brown and that usually matches my skin tone. It also pops out in the sunshine. It makes my skin look prettier and it makes my skin color pop out a little bit more than silver. That is why I prefer that.

× Yes, I do often wear jewelry.
✓ Yes, I often do wear jewelry.
The adverb 'often' is better placed before the auxiliary verb 'do' to maintain natural English word order and emphasis.
× I usually like to order it online through applications like Savannah, Sheen or some other websites that I found on Instagram.
✓ I usually like to order it online from applications like Savannah, Shein or some other websites that I found on Instagram.
The preposition 'from' is appropriate when referring to the source of an order, whereas 'through' is less suitable in this context.
× I am brown and that usually matches my skin tone.
✓ I have brown skin and that usually matches my skin tone.
Saying 'I am brown' is vague and can be unclear; specifying 'I have brown skin' is more precise and appropriate.
× It also pops out in the sunshine.
✓ It also stands out in the sunshine.
The phrase 'pops out' is informal and less appropriate; 'stands out' is a better collocation in this context.
× It makes my skin look prettier and it makes my skin color pop out a little bit more than silver.
✓ It makes my skin look prettier and makes my skin color stand out a little bit more than silver.
Again, 'pop out' is informal; 'stand out' is a better choice for describing how the skin color appears.
