Emma Watson

She is the new face for the Burberry Fall/Winter 09-10 Collection.

Actually I was against calling her a fashion icon, but she's proving me wrong. And besides, she just looks amazing in this photoshoot.

Moreover, she'll be appearing on Teen Vogue for the August 2009 issue. The setting and the styling are just great.

Everyday is a fashion show

And the world is your runway.

First impressions are the ones that count. Superficial, but true. 

As I have said before, I am a people watcher and I just love to analyze each person's style. Above are some of the pics from fashion blogs I read every now and then. I usually get inspired by some of their outfits! So enjoy..

When I say I major in fashion design, people often assume :

1. I have a LOT of free time

2. I'm always sewing

3. I'm an airhead.

And they often ask question

like: Do you have midterms? Have you designed something? Can you design something for me? 

Then when I tell them I also take Art History, French, Textile Technology, among others.. they are just shocked.

I have become used to it and I find it funny. They don't know that if I have a free day it is used to do projects, buy art supplies, study for tests, pattern making, etc etc etc.. so basically  that means I have no free time. For example, today I had to buy fabric swatches for some projects. I was there for almost two hours and I spent almost $100. Tomorrow is Sunday, and I still have to do things. I have to do some sketches for my design class, study for an oral test and paint a color chart. So, no free time either. 

But I LOVE what I do. Sometimes I even prefere to stay at home working rather than go out to a club or something.. workaholic, I know, but what can i do? When you love what you do it doesn't feel like work.

Time to grow up

Have you ever become friends with someone you never thought you would? High school is full of cliques and, once you graduate, you realize that the mean girl, the cheerleader, the jock or the punk one are a huge part of your life. They have been there for so long and probably know a lot more about you than you think.

I am a people watcher, I over analize everything, and sometimes I like to observe a situation as if I was on the outside.

It's just amazing how one common interest can bring 5 completely different high school classmates together and make them realize they are not as different as they thought they were.
