Entry #1

In  the  ar)cle  that  I  found  on  Women’s  Wear  Daily  was  an  ar)cle  about  LVMH  and  it  talk  about  the  different  company’s  and  the  sales  of  the  different  companies  that  they  have.  One  of  the  companies  that  they  talk  about  is  the  Sephora  Cosme)c  Company.  The  ar)cle  says  that  Sephora  “gained  market  share  in  all  its  regions  and  con)nued  to  expand  on  its  global  store  network,  helped  specifically  by  the  opening  of  its  Shanghai  store  which  is  in  China,  also  known  for  having  the  largest  stores.  Ranking  in  coming  in  at  $2.80million.

Entry #2

J.  C.  Penny  is  one  of  the  largest  department  stores  in  American  that  people  shop  at.  From  the  reading  the  past  ar)cles  J.C.  Penny  didn’t  do  so  well  in  this  year  so  far.  So  they’re  trying  a  “Plan  B’  for  some  real  estate.  Some  of  the  ideas  that  people  was  saying  that  the  company  should  do  is  that  maybe  cut  the  store  into  two.  Because  they  already  talk  about  the  money  that  they  loan  with  $1.75  Billion  through  Goldman  Sachs,  and  also  WS’J  Emily  Glazer  and  Mike  Spector.  My  worry  is  how  did  the  company  even  get  to  this  point  in  the  business.  I  wouldn’t  make  the  companies  smaller  I  would  just  close  some  of  the  stores  that  aren’t  making,  as  much  so  we  wouldn’t  be  in  so  much  debt  with  companies  so  we  can  be  more  balance.

Entry #3

Ending  the  winter  and  fall  season  we  come  into  the  spring  season.  When  we  thin  of  the  spring  season  with  think  of  the  warm  colors.  But  for  the  season  bling  is  the  new  thing.  Pu\ng  bling  on  any  of  your  clothes  makes  them  pop.  I  personally  like  bling.  I  have  a  lot  of  clothing  like  this.  It  draws  a  lot  of  a]en)on  I  always  get  complements

Entry #4 Whitney  Eve  is  a  contemporary  collec)on  featuring  an  array  of  silhoue]es  from  party  dresses  complimented  with  alluring  colors  and  exclusive  pa]erns.  My  observa)on  was  based  off  the  Whitney  Eve  fashion  show  at  New  York’s  Fashion  week  2013  that  I  have  seen  on  the  Internet.  She  always  coming  out  with  something  different,  there  can  only  be  one  Whitney  Eve.  There  weren’t  a  lot  of  differences  in  the  designs  that  she  had.  But  the  similari)es  that  she  had  was  that  her  dresses  had  print  in  them,  and  how  she  has  the  different  types  of  party  dresses  and  causal  dresses  that  she  has,  and  also  seems  like  in  a  lot  of  her  designs  she  use  the  same  )me  of  fabric.

Entry #5

When  I  first  walked  into  the  Lord  &  Taylor  store  the  first  thing  that  was  drawing  my  a]en)on  was  the  shoes.  I  always  go  to  the  shoe  sec)on  first  because  I  love  all  of  there  shoes.  When  I  walk  to  the  shoes  I  walked  over  to  the  Jessica  Simpson  shoes  to  see  her  heels.  Of  course  they  were  nice  I  I  loved  trying  them  on  but  they  were  $170.  So  I  put  them  back.  Then  I  walked  over  to  the  cosme)cs  sec)ons  to  see  the  different  types  of  make-­‐up  I  saw  just  a  tad  bit  of  MAC  and  put  some  on  my  face  but  I  really  didn’t  care  for  it.  I  walked  over  to  the  prom  dress  sec)on  to  look  at  all  of  the  different  designer  dresses

Entry #6

The  trends  that  I  saw  in  Lord  &  Taylor  were  all  different  styles.  I  look  at  some  of  the  shoes  and  I  also  looked  at  some  clothing  items.  Everything  that  I  saw  was  in  style.  When  I  went  on  WGSN  I  saw  some  similar  things  that  I  saw  in  the  store  online.  Shoes,  clothing  etc.

Entry #8

I  really  like  to  go  shopping  that  one  of  my  favorite  hobbies  to  do  or  also  like  to  do  when  I  have  some  free  )me.  When  I  was  shopping  at  the  mall  around  my  house  I  was  looking  at  the  window  displays  just  to  see  what  they  have.  Because  I  feel  like  anything  that  you  have  in  the  display  window  is  going  to  show  what  they  have  in  the  store  and  to  also  draw  the  costumer’s  a]en)on.  The  first  store  that  I  walked  into  was  Topshop.  When  I  was  walking  by  I  was  saying  to  myself  I  have  to  take  this  picture.  The  best  mannequins  that  I  have  ever  seen.  The  different  colors  that  each  one  had  to  bring  was  very  nice  something  that  only  TopShop  would  do.    The  other  photos  are  from  my  favorite  store  Forever  21.  That  would  have  to  be  everyone's  favorite  store.  But  I  love  the  photo  with  the  3  mannequins  that  look  like  the  90’s  look.  They  had  gold  assercroies  on  them  and  I  really  like  that  a  lot.  Because  90’s  is  my  favorite  decade  and  also  it  gave  off  a  hip-­‐hop  type  of  vibe.  Because  I  also  listen  to  that  type  of  music.

Entry #9 The  Reality  TV  Basketball  Wives  LA  (VH1)  is  one  of  the  most  popular  reality  show  that  is  on  cable.  The  women  on  Basketball  Wives  all  have  there  own  career’s  and  how  the  live  in  life.  But  for  Draya  she  is  the  star.  She  was  a  young  video  vixen  just  trying  to  take  care  of  her  child  and  her  parents.  The  show  was  a  major  success.  The  women  would  wear  up  and  coming  designers  brands  to  help  promote  there  line.  Draya  during  the  show  has  created  a  clothing  line  called  “Fine  Ass  Girls”  which  launched  in  2013.  People  have  already  put  their  orders  in  to  help  Draya.  Her  company  was  a  success  over  night.  Her  items  are  always  sold  out.  Myself  tried  to  order  something  but  they’re  always  out  of  stock.

Entry #10 Suboo  is  a  swimsuit  line  that  has  lots  of  different  types  of  designs  and  shapes  and  styles  for  the  summer  )me.  The  designer  Sue  Di  Chio  launched  the  line  in  2007.  I  enjoy  her  designs  a  lot  because  the  summer  )me  is  one  of  my  favorite  seasons.  The  season  that  I  saw  that  was  very  interes)ng  was  the  summer  of  2013  ready  to  wear  collec)on.  I  think  the  the  retailer  that  would  hold  her  swimsuit  line  would  be  like  a  Saks  Fiih  Ave  because  it’s  a  very  upscale  swimsuit  line.

Entry #11 Fashion  Designer  responsibili)es;  crea)ng  sketches,  experimen)ng  with  color  combina)ons  and  complementary  garments  and  accessories  first  takes  place  at  this  stage.  Then,  the  fashion  designer  needs  to  find  the  right  materials  to  bring  his/her  sketches  to  life.  Sewing  samples,  test  garments  and  eventually  the  final  piece  are  all  part  of  a  fashion  designer's  du)es.      Fashion  Buyers  research  trends  to  predict  which  styles  of  clothing  will  be  popular  in  future  seasons.  Buyers  possessing  many  years  of  experience  travel  around  the  world  researching  designer  collec)ons  and  interna)onal  trends.  Typically,  buyers  purchase  merchandise  for  a  narrow  range  of  products  

Product  Manager  involves  using  problem-­‐solving  techniques  to  determine  the  most  efficient  methods  of  mass-­‐producing  various  garments.  Product  managers  consistently  monitor  global  fashion  markets  and  interna)onal  trade  ac)vity,  iden)fying  new  products  and  vendors  along  the  way.  Other  vital  tasks  include  managing,  developing  and  implemen)ng  product  management  ac)vi)es  to  maximize  sales  of  a  specific  product  line.

Entry 13

 

Possible  career  that  might  fit  me  would  be  being  a  stylist.  I  really  like  working  with  people  helping  them  put  on  clothes  and  picking  oumits  out  for  events.  Also  becoming  a  fashion  buyer  for  a  store  would  be  cool  I  like  going  through  clothes  and  picking  out  the  best  of  everything.  Also  I  wouldn’t  mind  working  for  fashion  shows  dressing  the  models.  When  I  worked  at  the  fashion  show  before  I  enjoyed  it.
