Michelle Obama's Influence on Fashion

     Michelle Obama has a huge influence on new fashion trends. The article "Michelle Obama Influences the Fashion Industry" describes that news reporters and just the general public all wait for big events and just normal days to see what Michelle Obama will wear. The public see what she wears and then go out and buy similar clothing. Michelle Obama really has the power to decide who can become the next great designer and also what will trend next, but why?
     Michelle Obama chooses what will trend next and creates more famous designers. Michelle Obama uses lesser known designers according to the article and after she is shown wearing that designer everyone has to have clothes from that designer then everyone knows that designer. In one year alone Obama "raised over 2.7 billion dollars in revenue for 29 different fashion designers just because she wore their clothing and the masses went out and bought similar clothing that Obama wore. Some fashion companies saw their stock rise over 25% during that same period," (1). Obama has power in the fashion industry.
     Why is it that famous people are always the influences? In my opinion I think it's not so great that famous people are influencing the world. Sure it's great because it helps out the fashion industries of lesser known designers as well as other industries but if everyone owns the same pair of shoes or the same dress then it's not original. The first thing people can tell about your personality is by looking at what you wear. The things you wear should be not only things you like and think look pretty but should also reflect who you are as a person. People buy the clothing that famous people wear because they wear them not because it reflects them. "Obama’s fashion choices are chronicled almost on a daily basis as many within the industry and the media wait to see what she will wear next whether it’s for a huge event or just daily wear," (1), people live for this just to see what a famous person will where to this big event or to this place.
     After reading this article I have realized how big an impact Michelle Obama was to the world but it's not only her that has a big impact on the world. Almost all people who have been recognized for something like they were in a movie, there a singer, or they are like in this case married to the president have influences on well everything we do not just fashion. All this influencing just sucks a lot of the originality out of our fashion choices and everywhere we go.

Twilight

     I have recently been reading Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. The book is about a girl named Bella who moves to a town in Washington where her father already lives from her mother's house in Phoenix, Arizona. It's a big change for her because she doesn't know anybody at her new school and also because she isn't used to much rain and cold weather since she is coming from one of the warmest and driest places in the US. She meets new friends at her school but one person mystifies her. She can't seem to figure Edward Cullen out. This book is about her realizing that vampires and werewolves really do exist, not only in books but in her life. It is also about choosing. But who has the power?
     Bella has power in the story. I think that Bella has some power in the story because she has to choose who she will date. Bella loves both people Jacob and Edward but in different ways, Jacob is more of a family friend and Edward she loves more as a boyfriend. Both love her in a sort of girlfriend way so it is her choice to pick who she will date.
      Jacob and Edward have the power in the story. I think that both Edward and Jacob have the power in the story. Their power is mostly physical, they are physically powerful and strong while as Bella is mentally strong. Both want Bella and so they aren't very fond of each other. Also the werewolves and the vampires are natural enemies so it makes things worse. But they also have things in common like their strength and also their job to protect Bella, a mortal with no strength and no way of protecting herself from other immortal beings like werewolves and vampires.
     All in all multiple characters have power in different ways whether it be physical or mental in this book.
