Hello readers today I am writing about JWU. This private university was founded in 1944, it is in four locations across the US, RI, FL,CO and NC. This university offers many degrees and great education. It inspires students to achieve professional success and lifelong personal growth. If one is accepted to the university then they can go to any of the locations.When applying to colleges there are many things one has to consider. For example, ask questions about the college, maybe if they have the degree that you want to major in, or is it big, small, public private, and many more. Personally this school isn't for me, I can't see my self going there. Even though all of the locations are beautiful, the courses that they offer are not the ones I'm interested in. This university is in the top 100 in the US, and there are thousands of schools. Well that is all for today, thank you for reading bye.

Function vs. Design

Hello readers today I am writing about prototyping and function vs. design. I think that it is important to have both function an design. But if I had to choose between those I would chose function over design. I would rather have something that works then something that doesn't but pretty. In our class pop up store projects, I think that all design should have both because if one is functional but not eye appealing then no one would buy the product. If a product is colorful an designed really creatively then there might be a bigger chance of selling the product. To make hand warmers and scrunchies it's really important for the product to function. When making them workers must be very neat and do a good job, because if not then the rise could spill everywhere or the scrunchies could rip. We want all customers to be happy so there fore we need to stay on task and do our best. That is all I have for today, thank you for reading bye.

The True Cost

Hello readers today I am writing about fast fashion. Many times the clothes that we wear now were made by someone else in a different country. Those clothes are being produced for pennies by workers who get paid even less. In order to keep the cost as low as possible and maximize profits, many brands force factories in countries like India to compete against each other. 85% of those workers are women. If the workers dare to demand higher wages, they would be locked in a room and beaten. I think that this is wrong that people should work hours and hour per day and get payed pennies, I think it's unfair. It makes  me appreciate clothing and hold on to it longer or donate it to someone who needs them, instead of tossing them away. I think that there is definitely a need for change, to change the factories conditions, wages, the way people act. I think that if someone makes something it should worth more then a penny. That is all for today, thank you for reading, bye.

Hello readers today I am writing about cyber Monday. This event is a marketing term for the Monday after the thanksgiving holiday. The term was created by marketing companies to persuade people to shop online. The term was created by Ellen Davis. This is a great event, because so many people shop online and this is great because more people can buy things. I think that this even is better than "Black Friday" mostly because you can shop at home and don't have to deal with rude and violent people. This is a great way to get things that you want cheaper without leaving your house. According to USA press release online shopping has doubled from the previous year on cyber Monday. Cyber Monday is all over the world. Well that is all for today, Thank you for reading, bye.

Black Friday

Hello readers, today I am writing about black Friday. Black Friday is the day following Thanksgiving Day. This day is not an official holiday. It has been the busiest shopping day of the year since 2005. In 2014, spending value on Black Friday was 50.9 billion dollars during the 4-day weekend. I think that Black Friday is great, many people can afford things that are on sale, weather for themselves or someone else. Although this is a great opportunity to go shopping for chap it is very hectic and crazy. People fight and are rude during this event. Because of how people behave during the weekend I do not participate in this event, I do not believe that the way people act should be an excuse. If people were more nicer I would most likely go shopping on that day, but there are also online deals so I do that sometimes. Well that is all for today, thank you for reading, bye.

Hello readers today I am writing about shopping. Every one loves to shop. Well most people. We love to get cute and affordable things for ourselves, friends and family. When I shop I look for cute thing like a sweater or a shirt, but I don't just buy it I look at the price first, and if I can afford it then I buy it. I'm pretty sure that everyone loves when things go for sale. It's hard to find things that are cheap and high quality. I love to go shopping with my friends, it's more fun to go with someone. When I shop I shop for hours. I look through a lot of things an try them on,  I find it fun. Well that was short and sweet, thank you for reading bye.

Effective Product Development

Hello readers today I am writing about product development. Product development is a series of stems that include the conceptualization, design and development. The objective of product development is to cultivate, maintain and increase a company's marker share by satisfying the customers and demands. In orders to do so there are a few steps. 1) Solicit feedback. Ask your self, is the product the right shape, color? 2) Refine your design with simplicity in mind. A simple straightforward design is important. Product packaging should be clean and easy to read, and simple. 3) Don't skimp on materials or manufacturing. To ensure that production clean, create guidelines for every detail. 4) Make sure the prices are right, you could do the math. 5) Don't overstock, not everyone will buy all of the product so we do not want to loose money. 6) Protect your ideas, make sure you have your name or brand name. 7) Consider retailers an communicate wisely, ask for help if needed as well as ask questions. That is all for today thank you for reading bye.

Fast Fashion

Hello readers, today I am writing about fast fashion. Fast fashion is a contemporary term used to express that designs move from catwalk quickly to capture current fashion trends. The clothing collections are based on the most recent fashion trends presented in fashion week in both the spring and the autumn of every year. The objective of fast fashion is to quickly produce a product in a cost-efficient manner.  I think that most people like cheap clothing and buy them. It also hurts the environment because many people through away the clothes. I think that instead of throwing away they should donate to others and that would be safer for the environment. We all live on this planet and we need to take care of it and help each other. We should be thankful for what we have. That is all for today thank you for reading bye.

Fashion and Sustainability

Hello readers today I am writing about fashion and sustainability. Sustainable fashion is also called Eco fashion. It is a part of the growing design philosophy and trend of sustainability. The goal is to create a system which can supported in terms of human impact on the environment and social responsibility. I think that the fashion industry is "behind" sustainability because there are a lot of materials that are needed to make a garment and lots of resources are needed. They combine natural resources with chemicals. While researching I found out that most buyers through away just as much clothing as they buy, that was eyeopening. Certain designers compromise when it comes to sourcing Eco friendly fabrics because they want every costumer to be happy and also save the environment. I think that this problem will never go away completely, it might decrease but not go away, the reason why is because you can't make every customer happy, so want one way some the other, I think that it would be somewhere in between. When I buy clothes I never really pay attention what they make the garment out of and what they used, I just buy it because it cute or in style. I never thought about how clothing can be harmful to the environment, from now on I will be careful what I buy because we only live on this planet once and we need to take care of the planet. Well that is all for today, thank you for reading, bye.

Balmain's Spring/Summer 2017 Fashion Show

Hello, readers today I am writing about Balmain's spring/Summer 2017 Fashion Show. His show was really cool. It was full of color and geometric designs. It was eye catching but not my style. It wasn't my favorite show. It also didn't quite inspire me. There were 80 looks in the show. The garments were colorful bright and flowy.
Balmain is a French fashion house that was founded by Pierre Balmain. Balmain was born in France. The head designer is Oliver Rousteing who is a French fashion designer. He was adopted at age 1. I think that he is inspiration to many other young derringers and he shows them and shows them that you can do anything no matter where you came from. I think he is a smart business person because he is so successful. He is successful through out his creativity he even has his own fashion line. Well that is all for today, thank you for reading bye.

Hello readers, today I am writing about dreams. Everyone dreams and have goals in their life. I am a big dreamer, I want to do many things that seem impossible to do. My biggest dream is to travel the world and explore different cultures and visit different places. I love learning about different culture and going places I've never been. I don't just want to travel just to go to expensive places, I want to travel and help other people. I want to do something that would make others happy and joyful. I have so many other dreams. My other dream is to have my own family, I think that family is important and valuable because they are with you for the rest of your life weather you like it or not. I dream all the time, it's fun to imagine the different things we could do. Although those are my biggest dreams I still have some small ones. Well that is all for today's blog, thank you for reading, bye.

The Fall Styling Routine

Hello readers today I am writing about fall routines. Layers are a big reason why some people love fall. Not only that layers keep you warm but it is also cute. During fall season it is important to keep your skin healthy, for example moisturize. Layers are also great because if you get warm you can easily take the jacket off and you'll have something else under. Fall is really fun because people get creative. You could see how creative people are the way they dress. I understand that sometimes we get lazy and just wear plain clothes, but when we are not then it really cool to see that side of a person. I think it also challenges people because sometimes one thing doesn't work but somehow we make it work by using out creative mind. Everyone is creative no matter who you are. Some people are more creative that others but everyone is creative in some way. That is all for today thank you for reading, bye.
