5 Facts About Diamond Studs That You Never Knew
A carat worth of diamond can set your wallet back by as much 4500$ to 12,000$ or more. Coming to think of it though, this is one of those expenses you don’t need to apologize for, given that it is more like investing in something genuinely rare than plain vanity.

THE FABULOUS DESIGNER
CHAPTER I NEW YORK CITY 1987 While studying at Parsons School of Design, I got a job as a busboy at the Metropolitan Cafe in Union Square. It was a fun job for restaurant work. I loved the atmosphere and helping out the interesting and glamorous waitresses who were pursuing other creative dreams like myself. The regular customer was a stylish, cosmopolitan type. One of the owners was a Scandinavian supermodel.

Back to basics and handmade
Back to basics and handmade.....working to the bone, hand sewing often comes with scratches and pin pricks but the effort is worth it. Two things of anything you make that’s handmade are never the same. There’s always something that slightly different about it. I make collections of brooches, stylised embroidery hoops, and sewn pictures as part of my work but I do other things as well. All my crafts require cutting, stitching, and a lot more time than sewing on a machine.

Dressed to Impress
My passion for fashion burns inside of me. Although I’m weak in the areas of owning my own style I have quite the few ideas of things I’d love to wear, have others envy enough to follow my original yet not completely original trends, and maybe even design someday. As a child I had wanted to be a fashion designer due to the show ‘That’s so Raven’ due to Raven Symone’s character’s alter attitude of wanting to be a clothing designer and that brought me to my own conclusion of wanting to do the same. Things have certainly changed over time and I’d rather much be a world peace or human rights advocate I still sit here today wanting to impress not just the guy who my heart is set on to looking good for him but for myself to stare in the mirror and feel hot.

Snapping at Threads in Time
I believe each of us expresses our soul through our art. Human beings are meant to create and to admire beauty in this world. It is what brightens the mundane. I want to admire the clothing I wish to see. I feel at my very best when I wear it, not minding the gripes of "this is too costumey" from other people. Life is too short to worry about things like that. I visualize the dress in my mind, and see the colors flowing through the fabric, making its texture come alive. I feel the crushing of velvet fibers under my fabric scissors as I push the blades together. My blades glide like a swan through rich shot silk, and sever ribbons of many colors I hope to use for lacing. With every snip of my embroidery scissors snapping threads, I come this much closer to completing my dress. My left hand cramps at the extensive hours spent cutting up pattern paper and fabric, but such is the life of a thrifting seamstress. I feel most lost in my sewing endeavors when I am unable to find my scissors. They are an extension of my body, a valuable tool. If they go missing, my whole creative aura dampens. Thankfully, it rarely happens. My scissors are kept safe and lovingly wrapped in my cotton sewing belt, ready to be utilized at a moment's notice.

Making the Cut
Since as far back as I can remember I have always liked things that were exclusive. The years that I lived in the California I found myself constantly at the airbrush shop. My mind was always finding a new idea that told a story. However, most of those designs were merely airbrushed on T-shirts or the back of button up shirts but I never did any actual crafting. I would go to the artist and express whatever my thoughts were and he did an amazing job of bringing those ideas to life. But as great as those shirts were, I knew that I wanted to do more and ultimately needed to do more. Now it took me quite a few years after I left California before I ever got the courage to pursue those ventures.

Craze For Fashion
Start writing... Craze For Fashion : Torn jeans, tattoos, spiked hair I think all of us are familiar with all these. They are the latest trends in fashion. Fashion as defined by Wikipedia is:” a popular or latest style of clothing, hair decoration or behaviour” so all the lounges and disco are too the part of the latest fashion. The domain of fashion has now expanded to latest mobiles, automobiles and accessories related to them. So the definition of fashion has now expanded to new domains and does not limit only to clothes as it was in the past.Today we find people of every age group especially the millennial going crazy for fashion. They run after the latest trends in fashion without giving it a second thought whether they need them or it suits them or not. They just run behind the latest fashion trends. The bollywood stars are the icons here. What style is adopted by a particular star in some film, the followers copy that style. Everyone wants to look spectacular among their friends.The thinking or perspective of the people is also responsible for this craze. Now a days the outward appearance is considered to look” cool” or”different”. Latest hairstyles, clothes and footwear are demanded by the people every time. The social media has also played a significant role here. Comments , shares, post, likes and advertising on these platforms regularly update the users about the latest trends in fashion and thanks to so many ecommerce sites everything is available in just one click. These sites constantly update its users with the latest trends and provide them with many features and options to view and compare the various items thus creating an urge in them to buy and try the latest options available to them.Fashion as stated earlier is just not limited to clothes but behaviour too. Late night parties in discos are common now a days because they are the latest fashion to enjoy with friends and if you are not happy going there but you still have to because your friends will take you to be old fashioned. Thus craze for fashion is bringing a change in the existing culture also. One can see people falling into the trap of drugs, smoking, alcohol and deadly bike stunts just to fit into the latest trends or they will not be considered ‘ cool’ among their friends.Fashion is good until it does not interfere with your true personality. It should be a part of our lives but should not be driving our lives. Fashion adds to our personality but is not our personality. It’s better to go for the trends with which we feel comfortable rather than landing ourselves into such fashion trends with which we don’t feel comfortable. A good picked style which suits our personality and makes us feel comfortable while wearing them is the true meaning of fashion. It adds charisma and vibrancy in the personality of the person but the one who just blindly follows others doesn’t not get any benefits irrespective of how expensive and latest things he gets for himself. So be fashionable but not blind in fashion.Although people first started washing clothes, it was estimated to have been somewhere between 100,000 and 500,000 years ago. The first fabric was made from natural ingredients: animal skins and furs, grasses and leaves,Bones and shells. The clothing was often wiped or tied; However, simple needles made from animal bones wash leather and fur clothing that existed at least 30,000 years ago.As the Nile cultures migrated, the benefits of woven fibers over animals, fabric making, and basket weaving techniques evolved into one of the most basic techniques of mankind.The history of clothing goes hand in hand with the history of hand and hand cloth. Humans invented weaving, spinning and other techniques and had the machinery needed to make fabrics used for clothing.Simple cloth handle.
