Need Advice?

by Gabrielle

Fashion is my thing. My friends come to me for help, but realy fashion is everyone’s thing becuause fashion difines you. If you are sporty, snotty, kind, funny, or anything else you can show that in your cloths. Everyone thinks that the popular people wear the best cloths, thats a big fat lie you can wear cute cloths with out breaking the piggy bank just mix and match.

Fashion Dreams

by Mackenzie

Fashion. A fresh, outgoing, and bold lifestyle to live and share with many others. Is it just me, or when I create, see, or even hear about fashion, I instantly get this sparkle in my eyes. I have realized that even though I’m only thirteen years old, no matter what your age is, you can’t let anyone tell you what you can’t do, because fashion is about taking extreme risks. My fashion journey has taken me many places. I also realize everyday that there are people just like me who want the same experience and if we all put our fashion forward heads together and create masterpieces worn by prestigious queens who wear the finest of clothing. Or maybe just the people around us! Many others may not see this, but fashion isn’t just something you can do. You need a style eye and know to NEVER doubt the way you see your surroundings. You just simply see life’s treasures a bit more closely, and that is 100% ALLOWED in fashion. How else will people step out of the gray and into the…aqua! (my favorite color! It’s free-spirited and adventurous, just like me!) Another thing is to don’t second guess yourself, because your ideas are original, because they are you. In conclusion, I just want to say that everything I have mentioned is completely my thoughts and dreams of fashion and I just know that one day we’ll both be behind the scenes, turning fabric into art, together!

FASHION…comes from within you

by Nicki

FASHION.that is something i cant live without my kind of style is like funky colors like fucsia,black,blue etc…
happiness is the secret to all beauty no girl is ugly if youre seeing this youre really special
Fashion is not necessarily about labels. It’s not about brands. It’s about something else that comes from within you.my kind of style is like that girl from fasion playtes named caitlin.she has a great sense of fashion.My fav. style is shake it up. they mix and match things really cool.
Real beauty its not what its in the outside,its about being the real you,dont be scared to show your style,just believe in you and stand up 4 who you are.The most important thing to remember is that you can wear all the greatest clothes and all the greatest shoes, but you’ve got to have a good spirit on the inside. That’s what’s really going to make you look like you’re ready to rock the world

Fashionable Mix

by Chloe

At my school we have to wear uniforms so it’s hard to let your style shine through. But I’m sure to personalize my outfits in some way every day!
I wear fun and funky hair ribbons.that always make me stand out. I also have different hair styles most days.
Another thing I do to stand out is wear scarfs. If I have a bright colored polo on I wear a lighter colored scarf and if I have a lighter colored shirt I wear a brighter colored scarf.
So how will you spread a little(or a lot) of fashion in your life?!

Designer sense

by Grace

I love designing clothes and when I saw that I could make my own online and they would send the clothes to me, I was so excited! In the morning I look at the clothes I can choose from and choose the cutest I can find. Then I do my hair and finally put on shoes that go with my outfit.
My brothers on the other hand don’t really care what they look like. For instance older little brother always wears excercise shorts and a rangers T-shirt, while my smaller little brother wears an explorer vest all the time. But all the same i love them. Even though they could really use some fashion help.

Sincerely,
Grace

- Tape or pins
- Adjustable lighting (desk lamp)
- Doll clothes & Accessories
- camera

1) Tape or pin your backdrop to a clear wall approximately 2 1/2 feet above the ground
2) Dress up your doll in your favorite clothing and accessories
3) Place upright on doll stand in from of your backdrop
4) Use your lighting wisely. Make sure you can see your doll and her clothing clearly
5) Get your camera and snap away! Try taking photos from different angles, see what works best! Get creative and make your doll a star! Remember: Take turns with guests. Let each doll get their chance in the spotlight!
