The first department store was established in New York City in 1846 by Alexander Turney Stewart (Keene, 482). Soon after, others began copy Stewart and created giant stores that had many “departments” (Keene, 482). Within the next few decades, department stores became very popular, and people would swarm to them. Not only for the merchandise that had a fixed price, but also for the experience. Before the department store, most people would make negotiations on prices of the goods rather than having an already settled, fixed price.

With the growth of industrialization, factories had grown in size and unsafe working conditions were the norm. The fire at the Triangle Shirtwaist Company on March 25, 1911 in New York City changed the way America dealt with labour reform regarding working conditions.
On Career Foundry I stumbled upon Dawn Schelecht’s post about the differences between UX and UI. In her post, Schelecht not only differentiates UI and UX but also compares the whole experience to brownies. Even though the comparison seemed a little off-beat, I was curious to see where was going with her argument. I soon discovered UX is similar to the process of making brownies whereas UI is similar to plating and serving them. For instance, the UX designer puts careful thought into the development in order to satisfying the end user’s interaction with the brownie.

something I had learned to do on my own growing up, and also enjoyed doing was Braiding and styling hair/ Throughout my high school years I was a known as a hair braider I had many of my friends and family members coming to me to get their hair done.

Every little girl plays with her mothers makeup. I used to watch my mother and sisters do their makeup every morning, and I would sit in front of a mirror and try to imitate their actions. As soon as I could walk, I was getting into their makeup. This continued for years until I bought my own materials to gain more experience and expand my creativity. I would use my imagination that makeup brought, and I would test different designs on my friends and family.

Fashion is my method of self-expression. The clothes we choose to wear gives us control over how others perceive us and affects how we feel about ourselves. From wearing black at the Golden Globes in support of the Time’s Up movement to the traditional Chinese Qi Pao, clothes can show solidarity without words or act as a way for us to connect to our cultural heritage. This is why fashion is important to me, because it allows me to tell a story about who I am and who I aspire to be. I have chosen to further my Management studies at the London College of Fashion because the MA Fashion Design Management covers themes essential for managing a successful fashion brand, which has always been a dream of mine.
INTRODUCTION Stress is a word derived from Latin word “Stingere” meaning to draw tight. (Mojoyinola, 2008) Stress is your body’s way of responding to any kind of demand or threat.
