What I Think Of Fashion! :)


Fashion

Fashion is the attire people put together to express a certain feeling, a popular trend or style of dress. Of course fashion is not for everyone but we are all different and we have different taste in dress. I like to dress more conservative. People say I’m weird with clothing and I’m okay with that. 
You can be cute and comfortable! Don’t be afraid to try it. 
 
 
I love this! These boots work well with just a hint of Victorian style such as a blouse, or a long skirt. Their smart look means they're very comfortable to wear to work, and their thick heels help to keep them modern and feminine.

Short hair works for all seasons of the year!




This make up is very heavy, I dislike when a female wears too much makeup, and your covering your natural beauty …I rather keep it plain and simple.  


I love leggings with a nice top and boots but ladies leggings are not made for everyone, especially for the females with a odd shape…I’m just saying.




Cross body bags are my favorite! You don’t have to worry about carrying it on your arm or worrying about it falling off your shoulder. It goes across the shoulder and stays there.






I can not stand graphic tee shirts like this! To me it is just stupid. It’s a fashion NO NO.












Now some ladies can pull off wearing sneakers with something classy but this should’ve been worn with heels instead, sneakers don’t go with everything.



 

I love skinny jeans period but distressed skinny jeans are definitely in style! 










Everyone owns a pair of nerd glasses. It complements some peoples face and I love them.

Fashion TimeLine


Fashion TimeLine

In the 1800’s people had a very unique but classy sense of style. You see the women wore mostly dresses. In the early 19th century, ladies were not supposed to show much skin. Some fashions in the early 1800's made women look much like statues of Greek goddesses! Everyday men’s clothing included a shirt, pants, waistcoat (vest), tie and coat. Most of the clothes were made by the women of the house. The sewing machine wasn’t invented until late 1840. Their fashion was very stylish but also plain.



 


In the 1900’s the fashion trend was much similar to the 1800’s. The women still dressed classy but they did show a little more skin like the legs and arms. The men wore suit like attire just like in the 1800’s. The fashion trend didn’t change too much. There were many options for the women and many things for them to create because of the invention of a sewing machine in the 1800’s.











In the 2000’s that’s when the fashion trend became more exciting and fun. It is a clash of old school mixed with new. There are different colors and fabrics mashed together to make an outfit. Shoes are an important factor to complement the attire. You see different people with different styles. No one looks the same. The trend continues to grow every year.

My Thanksgiving break!

Oh my! Thanksgiving this year was amazing. My father side of the family held a big dinner at St. John Lodge here in Greensboro. We had enough space to hold 60 people, and enough space for everyone to enjoy themselves. My mom and others filled the lodge with thanksgiving decorations. We had all types of food from smoked turkey, honey glazed ham, corn, broccoli and cheese casarole, baked macaroni and cheese, fried chicken, baked chicken, dressing, potatoe salad, italian greens and more! Yes I know it sounds good right? It was delicious. My niece turned 1 years old on thanksgiving too so after our dinner we had a birthday party. Ofcourse that consisted of birthday cake, cup cakes, ice cream, and candy. I had a good time and was very well satisfied with all the food. Everyone was smiling and making the best of being together. The kids made a mess by spilling stuff on the floor and who had to clean it up? Me! Overall my time with the Miller family was great I love them. Hope next year is even better.

Being a senior in High School

As a senior you have many responsibilities. You are at the top of the food chain in High School so you feel like your "grown". It's a good feeling to know you have made it to the end. It is your job as a senior to make sure all your senior items are paid for. Make sure you have all the credits needed to graduate. Seniors do get most of the attention and it's cool but hard work comes with that. You have tyo maintain good grades through out the whole school year and that is important. You have to sit through long SAT and ACT test. It sucks but in the end your future depends on the outcome of how hard you worked. You have to be ready for long nights staying up working on your senior project. Sometimes it is stressful but you just have to think positive and stay motivated.Make sure everything is organized and that you are ready for college. Being a senior is fun and stressful at the same time but hard work pays off so I enjoy being a senior while I can.

SMOD and NO SMOD

Many Middle Schools, High Schools and Elementary Schools have standard mode of dress (SMOD). Some schoold feel that if the students are seen in uniform then your seen as in proper dress in other peoples eyes. Other schools think that it lowers the chances of children being bullied. Either way it's both bull crap to me. When the student is in smod it doesn't give them the satisfaction of expressing themselves. It also makes the student feel trapped inside of their own body. When the student is not in smod they can dress however they feel or based on whatever their mood is. There are many choices the student can choose from when they are not wearing smod. Students will be bullied no matter what you have on. Smod or no smod shouldn't effect what the child can do academically in school.

Why Acrylic nails are dangerous

So for the ladies who like to keep their nails done I commend you for keeping them fresh. If you get acrylic nails I advise you to keep them at a good length to where they wont be easy to break. The longer they are the easier it is for them to break. Any sudden movement could break your nail if they're too long. Mind you that the acrylic nail is glued to your actual real nail so you need to be careful. I know this one girl who got into a physical altercation and during that altercation her whole fingernail came off. Just the other day in dance class one of my peers ring hit my fingernail. My fingernail was cracked and my real nail up under was damaged. It was bleeding really bad. My personal experience should show, anybody who wears acrylic nails, these acrlyic nails can be dangerous. They look nice when they're finish but be careful with what you do and what type of job you have.

why education is important for single teen moms too

Teen moms are portrayed in a negative light through some people's eyes. Being a teen mom doesn't make you a monster or a stupid female. They are still human beings and they have feelings. Education is a must for teenage mothers and it is important your child view you as a role model. Only 40 percent of teenagers who have children before age 18 go on to graduate from high school, compared to 75 percent of teens from similar social and economic backgrounds who do not give birth until ages 20 or 21. My mother had my brother at the tender age of 14. She admits trying to hang with the popular crowd and do what they do. After having a child at 14 she dropped out of school because it was too much to handle. I know it can be hard but now a days you have no choice but to stay in school. Education is the key to success and school is your way out. Do not be apart of the statistic. Go to school and become a strong parent for your child. It will help you in the long run. I promise.

Election! #O B A M A

 I'm so excited president Barack Obama has been re-elected to serve a second term. In the beggining of the race President Obama only had 3 electoral votes while governor Romney had 19. I was nervous even though it was just the begining. I didn't want to watch the rest of the election so I cut the tv off and occupied myself by doing something else. Maybe an hour later I ut the tv back on and Obama had 244 electoral votes and Romney had 203. From that point on I knew my president had been re-elected I didn't need the tv to tell me so. I'm proud of the people who actually went out and voted. President Obama said "The best is yet to come".

Bullying



I see bullying almost everywhere I go. I'm not exactly sure what these kids go through but I can imagine what it must be like to get picked on, talked about, and harassed. Many people get bullied to the point where they take their own lives. Sad but true. I see many No Bullying posters, many ads, organizations and bully free programs. I’m sure most would agree that bullying other people is not right and something should be done to stop this abuse. To be honest I ask myself how in the world posters, verbal messages, and consequences prevent bullying. My opinion is I don't think there will ever be a resolution to bullying. The bully will still be the bully and there's nothing you can do about it. People get bullied for various reasons like their appearance, sex, ethnicity, disability, being imperfect and other reasons. Truth is nobody is perfect so how dare one human being judge another. Bullying doesn’t always happen in school it’s at home, work place and any public place. My 10 year old cousin gets picked on constantly by his classmates and step father who is abusive. Recently he went to school and told his teachers that he wanted to kill himself. It broke my heart to even think my little cousin would do such a thing. He is now seeing a therapist and there’s a chance he may get removed from his home. I just wonder why people feel the need to intimidate others. I just don’t understand what goes through the mind of a bully. Does it make them feel like they have power?  I wish this abuse didn’t exist but it does and it’s real. Bullying is real. How many lives will it take before this abuse ends? Will it ever end? Words are powerful people so let’s watch how we use them.
