 These pictures were when I was embellishing the dress for Sashalee's fashion show, right there my mentor told me to try on the dress because we did a few things to the dress so it wont look that plain. it was a tight navy blue dress, short & strapless and what we did was that we added a piece of cloth to the end of the dress to make it like a tail. It took a while trying to figure out what to do on the dress but I got it done. I personally wanted to add the tail on the dress because most of the dresses that girls are using now a days are short in the front and long in the back so that gave me the idea to add the tail so it can be short in the front and long in the back. I like how the dress came out but at first as you can see in the second picture the dress has like a bow in the top middle part and it has three green ribbons two on each side and then one in the middle underneath the silver bow. I tried on the dress like that and then looked at myself in the mirror and just started thinking to myself "How would that dress look on me when I'm on the runway?" then I asked myself "Do I really like the dress the way I designed it?" I had a moment to think about it and then I just thought why not just take the three green ribbons off and just leave the silver bow. That's exactly what I did and I love how it  came out.

So this bottom picture was taken after the fashion show. When everything was all done and when I finally went home. I was so tired after I went home from the fashion show. The show was a success. At first I was so nervous because I never modeled before so that was my first time modeling. I did good. I love how everything came out because in my head how it pictured it to be it was totally different from how it really was. Let's just say it was better than what I thought it was going to be. I thought it was going to be a disaster and that someone was going to fall because I remember hearing that a girl fell at the last fashion show but I had faith that everybody was going to do a good job and that everything was going to come out good. Me and Pircilla were the first ones to model so you know we were nervous. She went first and then it was my turn. Once I was up there I thought to myself "Everything is going to be okay Karina, you are going to do good" and of coarse I was right. Everybody was nervous but the most important thing was that we all did a good job and got it over and done with. I also had lots of fun modeling, I didn't know that modeling was that fun. If someone would have a fashion show I sure would love to be in it again. It was a good experience...
