Why this topic?
There's a famous spanish saying that goes: “como te ven te tratan”, which actually means that people will treat you as they see you. Anything you do to for your personal image will affect the impact you have on others. That’s why the fashion industry and beauty products have existed for hundreds of years now. As was clarified since the beginning-the way you show yourself to others is your presentation letter and first impression, but fashion is also a way of projecting your personality to the world. Think about it, you wear what you like, what makes you comfortable and every outfit you choose reflects a part of your essence.

Personal project is crucial for 10th grade and so this was an important assignment, because of that I was trying to define not only a topic but also the way in which I would develop the chosen topic. As the topic I end up choosing was beauty I had to decide in which path would I treat it. In my options I considered: Photography, Golden Ratio, Beauty products and finally Cloth Expression.

Redacting was a really sensible part, it was about reviewing my project and my progress... Were did I mess up and could do it better for a next approach. Redacting was also kind of therapeutic, realizing all the things I learned and how I also did have some achievements.

What did I do for... (Criterio C)
I did an interview to one of my beloved friends. She actually does have a big attachment to personal expression due to her a situation. Isabella has never been feminine, but her family always wanted her to be. Isabella has been "out of the closet" for over 2 years now. She is really happy and a part of that is that she can be herself, this includes the way she sees, deresses herself.

So my main goal was to help and make people happy with what they wear. Through the whole process I was having some citations with my friends (like I previously show) and at the end, I just took a survey in which they evaluated me. They gave me feedback on how I was as a consultant, and how they felt, etc...
