The Show

The one thing that's been drummed into my head since I started Uni, is 'always walk with a camera'. Luckily today I had my camera with me so I could capture the wonderful fashion show.

'The Show'

Roll up! Roll Up!
Step forward and bear witness to the most spectacular show of fashionable attire and accoutrements you're likely to see this side of the Gas Street Basin.

The Show, showcased this season's hottest trends and styles. As a member of the audience you were encapsulated in the magic and drama of the fashion on show. From elaborate brocades to hyperreal monochromes, woodland inspired to exotic animal feathers and furs. As an aspiring fashion designer, being able to witness this showcase was amazing. I felt so inspired and motivated to see my designs on the catwalk one day.

Do what you love & Love what you do!

Do what you love & Love what you do

This is so important because if you don't have any passion for what you then there is no point at all. Whatever you do is will just be empty and lack personality. Creating work that shows personality is so important for any Artist, Photographer, Designer ect.

Recently my little sister has been getting very creative and imaginative. As I don't always get to play with her, she will start making things from paper, tissue paper and any old scrap she can find. It's so amazing to watch her do this because if she's at this level of creativity now, if she later on decides to do an Art related career I'm going to enjoy watching her grow creatively.
This is something she did today with the paints I bought her and tissue paper:

For a 5 year old to do something like this is just amazing. I'm so proud of her. She said she did her drawing on the tissue paper because 'Mr Maker did it' and I love the delicate effect it made.

Hope. LOL

Disappointed
Definition- To fail to satisfy the hope, desire, or expectation of.

That's exactly how I feel right now, at this very moment in time. Some people say disappointment won't last forever. But it sure does knock your confidence, especially if you are a shy girl like myself. I hope tomorrow when I wake up this feeling will go...or maybe it's a good thing. I can easily use this feeling to focus on exams and fashion, something I really need to focus on right now instead of 'it'.

Today has been quite ironic; and I'm happy I have such a good sense of humour to take things so lightly. I'm wearing a top that says 'HOPE' on it and a necklace that says 'LOL'. These two words were very significant today. I was hoping for something and I laugh out loud a lot today. Of course when one has too much 'HOPE' for something I guess fate intervenes and says.."no it shouldn't happen like this'. I would of liked if what I was hoping for happened today, but in a way I'm happy it didn't happen. Because maybe something much more amazing will happen so I will just continue to hope and laugh out loud because that's the cure for any kind of disappointment.

How does this apply to fashion design? Of course every fashion designer especially a new one. Will face many disappointments on their way up to the top. But if it is something you want, you keep going until you get what you want. Follow your heart. Follow your dreams.
