2021 Spotlight : A Fabulo Stellar Halloween Costume !!!

Image
                       Halloween was October 31st as always! You could have been a Squid Game character , a dinosaur or a disco queen/king. Despite all the costumes I did see, a common theme was definitely NASA / space. This past Halloween both adults and children worn outfits outer space related . That was the lane I headed in for my own costume. My inspiration was Zenon Girl Of The 21st Century. I drew the character inspiration from Nebula.   I gathered a denim skirt I have and rolled it up thigh length to create a short mini skirt. The vest is actually a part of my City Year uniform. One thing that really knocked me off was the colors. As far the styling goes, the recreation did follow the guidelines. The colors were primary and neutral which had taken away from the complement of the styling and its familiarized concept .                                                                                        There is a CY logo that would have been covered with a “N” for Nebula Theref

Unpopular Social Media Opinions That You Can Argue Against

    According to Nicole Cooper “ unpopular opinions are simply defined as ideas and beliefs that go against or completely contradict the conventional status quo. “   One unique attribute that comes to unpopular opinions is that any topic can apply. For this one, I will be sharing my opinions on social media, influencers including Youtubers and social media trends along with apps.   Disclaimer : These opinions are only just opinions based on my personal observations,  it is not reflected by any LLC or organization. None of these are based on facts, just purely for entertainment purposes only.  Shrek is Love TikTok trend is outrageous and odd.  TikTok is an actual good and wholesome app with decency. Older generations should let Gen Z experience that classified connection instead of bashing it off of unhealthy challenges. When they were the ones planking on cliffs and grabbing ice cream out of the cones with their bare hands at a McDonalds drive thru . TikTok has its good and bad sides

My Time Volunteering At A Summer Leadership Camp

Image
        Unlike turning in homework and telling my parents I have a science project, getting dressed to learn six or seven different subjects and have 1 hour of recess, this was just fun! Summer camp.!! Growing up, I remember waking up for summer camp every morning ,from excited to  anxious to “I wanna go home!!.” As a middle school student in the 4-H club, I went to my first overnight camp at Rock Eagle, during the summer I went to a day camp on many field trips.  Its just a different feeling, the feeling of socialization and having fun. Unfortunately, those only last around a few years, you will get to the age when you go from summer camp to a summer job. After those days were over, I dedicated my time to interning and taking different volunteer positions at a couple summer camps at home in South Georgia and when I moved to Pennsylvania. Mt Poconos in PA Mountains has to be my all time favorite position  ( junior counselor)  so far, it really gave me an in depth view and love for camp

Go To Spots At Little Five Points & ADA Accesiblitity

Image
  Adventures At Little Five Points "Little Five Points is basically 5th Station and Ponce City Market had a baby." What is Ponce? What is 5th Station." That was my conversation on Bumble BFF.  I went to L5P myself,along with my sister, Heaven.  We picked up candles and oils from the Honey Pot Shop, a metaphysical store.  Little Five Points is an alternative, thrifty, filled with young adult energy.  There are tons of small businesses that sell crystals, gemstones, rocks to vinyl records and athletic clothing.  One vinyl record shop we visited was Criminal Records. It is a definite recommendation for the 70s- 90s music lovers.  We made a stop by at Arden's Garden for a delicious salad with sweet kale and tofu.   Just a nice Saturday night with decent weather, walking is the main liability, cause of outdoor shops. I score walking an 8 out of 10.  Parking lot is easy to find just small.  We used an ADA Accessibility van to and from, therefore keep in mind watching your

Trying on the Same Size Jeans From 3 Different Stores

Image
 This following is from a fashion assignment I've done while enrolled at Parson X Teen Vouge : Fashion Industry Essentials.   Its called Fashion Production. Basically, fashion production is the proccess in which an item is produced in the factory to the sale of it  in the market. Back in November of 2019, I went to three different stores (Aerie, Burlington and Levi's )and tried on the same size jeans.  For instance, certain pair of jeans fit ,  Burglington 4/27 the cons were it being to short or too tight.  Levi's  I tried on size two, it was tight and big in the waist.  Aerie The 4/27 were more of my size, one frequent problem I did run into were the ways each pair shaped on my body. My stature and size and style of jeans did play a role.
