Halloween


Hello readers today I am writing about celebrities and Halloween. These days many celebrities have been really into Halloween. I think that it's cool how they dress up no matter what age they are and it inspires other people to do the same. I think Halloween is fun, you could be anybody you want and no one judges. Even though some people don't go trick or treating it's cool how they dress up and it is interesting to see other peoples costumes and their creativity. One of many celebrities who dress up and go all out is Heidi Klum, she dresses up in the most craziest costumes and you can't recognize her. For example in 2013 Klum dresses up as an elderly woman, and I mean she went ALL out, she had the make up and every detail of a grandma, she was unrecognizable. I think that more people should dress up, it make Halloween more fun. Halloween is not just for kids. Everyone should enjoy Halloween. Thank you for reading, bye.

Quality Assurance

Hello readers today I am going to discuss the following: What is quality assurance? What does a quality assurance inspector do? Why is it important for a company to have standards for quality assurance? Quality Assurance is a way of preventing mistakes in manufactured products and avoiding problems when delivering solutions to customers. A quality assurance inspector works for a company to inspect, test and sample materials, parts or products for mistakes. Quality products help to maintain customer satisfaction and loyalty. Quality also influences your company's reputation. A strong reputation for a quality can be an important differentiation in markets that are very competitive. Poor quality can create negative publicity and damage your reputation. For example in fashion business some QA inspector look at the quality of sewing and other little derails like surging or even how the fabric is cut. It is important to have a good quality garments if you are planing to use it for along time. That is all for today thank you for reading, bye.

Levels of Quality

Image from "art of style"
Hello readers, today I am writing about levels of quality. Quality can generally be described as high, medium or low. It is how durable the garment is. A lot of the times price is the indicator of quality. For example if you buy really expensive jeans they might last longer and be better quality rather than cheap jeans that will last you only a year or so. A great example would also be jewelry. Diamond ear rings last longer that cheap fake ones. It depends on a person if they want to spend more money on a durable garment. Perhaps they might not have enough money to buy high quality clothes. Lets take garage sales or thrift shops, they sell worn clothing. The clothes are not necessarily low quality but when someone wears them it makes them cheaper. Well that is all I have for today, thank you for reading.

Halloween Fashion

Hello readers, today I am writing about Halloween fashion. Although Halloween is not my favorite holiday, I do dress up. Sometimes I put together my own costume and sometimes I just wear store bought costume. Sometimes I am lazy so I don't spend too much time on the costume. I think that Halloween is fun, and people can dress up as much or a little as possible. Some costumes shouldn't be worn because they are inappropriate but people still wear them because its "Halloween" and it is "acceptable", I disagree. You can also do really cool make up that completely transforms the person. This year I feel a little lazy and too old to go all out for Halloween, so I am just going to wear a piglet onesie, it's comfortable and appropriate as well as cute.  People can express how they feel through what they wear, and eat candy. I think that it's easier to buy a costume then to make one because it requires time and effort, but if someone is willing to do it then why not. That is all for today, thank you for reading, bye.

Sewing to Survive!

Hello readers today I am writing about children in Turkey who have to sew in order to survive. In the article "The kids who have to sew to survive" by Darragh Maclntyre, illustrates how young children ages 6-13 have to sew everyday illegally in order to survive, and they get payed as little as $1.22 an hour. That is terrible, it is illegal child slavery. The things that the kids make are made for high-end shops in England. I think that if the US did business with those people I would do everything that is possible to stop it. I think that people and the government should do something about it and get those innocent children out of there and into safety. Those kids do not deserve what they are going through, they should be playing outside and playing tag or drawing, doing the things that a kid should do, experience childhood. Children that age should not be forced to do something that they shouldn't be doing. The world is so cruel. You have to be pure evil and heartless to do those things, and kill an innocent child if they do not do what is not in their standard. That is all I have for today thank you for reading bye.

Vulgar Fashion

Hello readers today I am writing about Vulgar fashion. Vulgar means the lack of good taste, or overdone. This type of fashion features many designers around the world, like Manolo Blahnik, Christian Dior and Prada. Many call fashion "vulgar" because it contains of many different ideas and is expensive, it can also be bisexual. Many people see this as an art form, and many don't. Even though this type of fashion is abnormal it is still shown of runway fashion shows and even museums. Personally I do not like this type of style, it just doesn't interest me. I think that fashion does have to break the acceptable rules of taste in order to redefine it, because if we as people need to push our selves out of comfort zone and explore new things. I do agree with the statement "beauty is in the eye of the beholder". I think that every person has their own opinions and thoughts on what is beautiful so therefore they can express that. Well that is all for today thank you for reading bye.

Fashion Photography

Hi readers today I am writing about fashion photography. Fashion photography is devoted to displaying clothing and other fashion items. This type of photography is often for advertisement or fashion magazine. In 1856 Adolphe Braun published a book containing 288 pictures. In the first 20th century fashion photographs were allowed to be featured in magazines. I think that this is a creative career, because one can be as detailed or as simple as they want in their photographs. Photography tell a story. I have definitely been interested in photography for a long time and maybe do something with the interest. For me it doesn't matter how much the job pays as long as I love it and I am passionate about it it's perfect. Well that is all for today, thank you for reading, bye.

Winter Fashion

Hi readers, today I am writing about winter fashion. Personally I love winter fashion because the clothes are really cute, warm and I love layering clothes. People can even wear summer clothes while layering them with winter clothes. Another reason why I love winter it self is that I do not have to see other peoples "private areas", I just think that it is discussing and unnecessary. During winter every one wants to be warm so those people cover their part. I think that with winter clothes we can be creative and wear multiple things at once, unlike during summer we want less clothing and wear boring clothes. For example during the winter people can wear cute jeans with a t shirt layered with a trench coat or simple jacket/sweater it makes it simple but cute. Also there are a lot of cute shoes that are available during the winter, like different types of boots. Scarfs are awesome they're not just cute they also keep people warm. That is all I have to say, thank you for reading bye.

FIDM & Business Trends in the Fashion Industry

Hi readers today I am writing about "FIDM". It stands for "Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising" which is located in CA. It offers courses in fashion, entertainment, beauty, interior design and graphic design. Many students that attend get to work with some of the most famous people in the world and design for them. I think that this is great opportunity for someone who is really passionate about fashion because then people grow. This school is located in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Irvine and San Diego. Over 20 degrees are offered including International Manufacturing and Product Development, Textile Production and Development, Entertainment Set Design and Decoration, Film and TV Costume Design, Footwear Design, Digital Media, and Menswear. This was really cool for me mostly because I am not sure what I want to pursue, but one thing I do know is that I want to pursue my artistic abilities, and I think that this school and the programs they offer has that. I am going to look into it. 
                                                             That is all I know about "FIDM", thank you for reading bye.

Teamwork

Hi readers, today I am writing about teamwork. There is no "I" in the word team, as many people would say. Team work is a coordinated effort on the part of a group of persons acting together as a "team". Team work is the key to success in most of life and business. Only through team work we can combine different points of view, to overcome difficult obstacles or challenges. Not only does team work increases performance but it also promotes the development of better citizens and societies. Team work is important in every business, because without other people we would not learn. For example when a surgeon performs a surgery he or she has to have some assistance, to pass the tools for example or to hold something or to double check, this requires teamwork. Although some people may not like working with a team, it is a good life skill to have. Anyone who has worked on a team knows that the only way to do so successfully is by assessing oneself honestly and becoming the best person on can be.
                                                                                                             Thank you for reading, bye.

Cover Girl's first male ambassador

Hi readers today I am writing about first male cover girl ambassador. James Charles is only 17, he vloggs make up videos which are popular on Instagram and  YouTube. He is the new face of "cover Boy". In my opinion they should've kept the tradition for having only girls as the face of "cover girl". I understand that they are trying to do something different, but I think that guys shouldn't wear make up, because they were made to be a "MAN", and if a guy wears make up then that image fades away. I am not trying to be rude or disrespectful, it's just my opinion. I think that this consent might encourage and inspire male make up artists to challenge them selves, and that is great. Everyone need someone to be inspired and challenged from, and that's what James Charles does. Even though this concept is great, it is not what I believe is physically right. But I hope that people do get inspired and be themselves and do what they wish and not be like someone else, because everyone was made for a purpose. When people are being them self it makes them who they are and unique.  
                                                                                                            Thank you for reading bye.

Jobs in the fashion industry

Hi readers, today I am writing about different jobs in the fashion industry. There are multiple ways you can be involved in the fashion industry. You can be a model, photographer, salesperson, stylist, designer, pattern maker, marketer, retail manager, buyer, tailor, or visual merchandiser. A fashion model wears different styles and accessories to show off the featured design. They are responsible for showing people how the design looks on a real person. Models must maintain their small bodies, exercise daily and watch their diet. Some also travel. Most agencies look for specific height, weight and overall appearance. A fashion photographer is responsible to take a picture in the best way possible. A fashion photographer must have a portfolio. Fashion photographers earn more that a regular photographer, they also travel sometimes too. While fashion designers design clothe accessories, they are responsible for making the garment look amazing. They are required to have a portfolio. Many famous fashion designers earn over 125000 dollars a year and they also travel.
                                                                                                      That is all, thank you for reading.

Chanel's Spring 2017 show

Hi readers today I am writing about Chanel's spring 2017 show. Like any other fashion shows, this show which was in Paris had brought many celebrities. I saw a little clip of the show and maybe they tried to use the computer, robots and retro vibes to bring the brand to younger audience. But personally I don't think that it brings attention to younger audience. I feel like it's odd and distracting. It sure doesn't make me in "awe" or amused. I've seen a few other show's and this one is not my favorite. Even though this show is not my cup of tea I think that others like it and they have their own opinions and so do I. Although I don't like the show, I think that the setting and the garment colors go very well with each other. In my opinion I think that they could've done something different with the setting, because the garments are supposed to stand out not blend in.
                                                                       That is all for today, thank you for reading bye.

Alexis Martial and Adrien Caillaudaud

Hi readers, today I am writing about Martial and Caillaudaud, who are fashion designers and were in Paris fashion week. In the beginning of their show, I didn't exactly loved their designs. But towards the end of the show the garments started to look really interesting. Some garments are pale some are geometric and some are simple yet all of them are very unique and beautiful in their own way. I think that all of the designers all over the world work so hard to achieve where they are now. I think that in any job you work hard and there are ups and downs but you can chose either to be weak and give up or stay strong and keep going. Every designers had to start from the bottom and it takes time, dedication, passion to get to the top. People who love fashion get to express them selves through their work of art. I also think that fashion is art because you get to be creative with your designs. Many designers put lots of time and effort into their shows, and they all look incredible in their own way.
                                                                               That is all for today, thank you for reading bye.

What are hems? How can they affect a garment's appearance?

Hi readers, today I am writing about hems. What is a hem? Well a hem is the edge of a piece of clothing or cloth that has been turned under and sewn. A hem allows the edge look neat. There are many different styles of hems. There are even hems that do not require sewing, instead you use iron-on materials, netting, plastic clips. Hems prevent clothes from unraveling. It is very important to have hems because it makes the garment neat and professional, so that costumers can buy them. In my fashion class, I learned how to do three types of hand sewing hems. Herring bone, invisible stitch, and whip stitch hem. To do hems, it takes time and effort to make them right and neat. When finished with a hem you need to press it for the neat look.
                                                                                That is all for today, thank you for reading bye.
