I have an assessment for Professional Studies today. It's in interview form and I have to show my portfolio. I'm quite confident but nervous too because there' so much to think about, points I want to say, skills I have etc.
In preparation for this assessment I thought it would be interesting and helpful to do some research into the types of jobs I'm interested in. The pages have good information about what the job holds, and what skills a person should have to suit this job.

I just found another DOVE advert which would be perfect for my own individual fashion issue - Anti-Ageing.
Thankyou Dove!

Fashion Issues Presentations
Yesterday we had our group presentations on a fashion issue of our choice. My group chose Political Fashion, and I was surprisingly interested and inspired by the information we were giving each other.
We chose to all go and research a certain aspect of political fashion. We also all made a couple of slide each going along with the same look and colour. We then came back the following week to put the presentation together. It went really well and I'm very confident in writing my essay at the weekend all about Political Fashion because of the valuable information given from the people in my group.
I also really enjoyed watching everyone else's presentations. I was really surprised to find every single group out of the whole year had chosen different subjects. Which was great as there was nothing samey and there was no competition between people.
I just wanted to link this video on my blog as someone had put it on their presentation as part of their presentation about 'body issues in fashion'. It's really up-to-date and interesting, showing how images are transformed for advertising - portraying a perfect body which girls (and boys) aspire to be, but it's not real, it's completely photo-shopped. So should we want to look liek a real beautiful person, or an artist's portrayal of beauty?
