Review on Sephora

In my last and final blog post, I will be doing a review on Sephora. Sephora is store that you will find in most malls and shopping centers all over the country. They mostly sell make-up, but they also sell other beauty products that can help better your skin and beauty. Most people have good reviews about Sephora but there is  always a small amount of people who have something negative to say. Here are a few reviews on some of Sephora's products:

This set has the highest rates in the Sephora store. It was rated five out of five stars and happens to be one of the top sellers. Everyone had something good to say about this product. It makes a great gift and customers say it has a nice scent to it.Customers also said the shower gel had a perfect, soothing smell and the lip gloss wasn't too bright. It was more of a baby pink and that really was a plus is selling this product. (Photo Courtesy and Information came from the same website: http://goo.gl/AM7fX)

These are out of the box hair extensions that are a great sell for customers. This specific product got a 4.9 out of 5 star rating. There are a variety of colors that the extensions come in and that makes it better for the customers. All of the customers said they never had a problem matching the extensions with their hair color. That is how convenient these extensions are. One customer said they were a little pricey, but the rest of the reviews were great!

This product is known to get rid of dark spots and to make the skin visibly brighter and more shiny. But, the ratings and reviews were not that good. This product got 2.2 our of 5 stars. The first couple of weeks customers started to see results, but not very many. But after about the third week, everything just went downhill. A lot of customers had high hopes for this product and they were let down and very disappointed. It was also said as over priced and not held to its value.

This eyeliner is made to draw thick or thin lines on your eyes. It is a felt tip and supposed to work great. But, it is not as great as it seems. It got a 1.9 out of 5 star rating. The reviews were not that great either. Customers said they had to push down on the eyeliner to make it work and it still did not work great after that. The colors of the eyeliner were faded and it did not even last the whole day. (Picture Courtesy and Information came from the same website: http://goo.gl/J4siE)

Compare and Contrast

In this blog post, I will be comparing and contrasting rompers and dresses from Forever 21. They are a popular seller and customers tend to usually have a favorite between the two.

The customers who shop at Forever 21 say the rompers are cute, comfortable, and affordable. At first, some customers are not sure if the romper is the right look for them. But, after they buy it, the customer is always happy. The customers said that they rompers fit to the body and the elastic band on the inside helps the romper stay in place. This romper is rated five out of five stars and all the customer feedback is positive. But, it is not best to buy the romper online because you might need to try it on and see how it looks. People prefer rompers over dresses because the rompers have the built in shorts and it breaks up the outfit. The romper is not the look for everyone. It is one of those pieces of clothing that has to just fit perfectly to your body.

Dresses:
Another big, but not as popular, of a seller at Forever 21 is dresses. Some customers complain the dresses are too short, but that the rompers fit perfectly. With the dresses, you have to break the outfit up with a belt or some form of accessory. But, that can be a good thing if you like to accessorize your outfits. The customer ratings for the dresses are no where near as high as for the rompers. Most people prefer the rompers. But, most people start out with the dresses first and then move to the rompers. The dresses are cheaper, but the material will not hold up as well as the material of the romper.

Fashion Interview With My Mom

I chose to interview Donna, my mom, because she is the one person who knows the best about fashion. Ever since she was a little girl, she was always getting into her mom's clothes and jewelry and dressing up. She is always up to date on what is in style and what to wear. She is the one who inspired me to be such a fashion diva. Hopefully with this interview, it will help others choose to love fashion just as much as my mom does!

Me: I am going to ask you a few questions about fashion, your views on it, and some personal favorites are you ready?                                                        

Donna: Yes.

Me: What is it about fashion that you love so much?

Donna: You can create your own identity. It's a way to express yourself. It's the way you can set yourself apart from everyone else. I would say that's the one thing I like about fashion.

Me: Where are some of your favorite places to shop?

Donna: Nordstroms, Cache, White House Black Market, and Ralph Lauren.

Me: What would be considered your definition of fashion?

Donna: Ever changing. Something is always changing. That definition sums it up in two words.

Me: How does fashion affect your life?

Donna: It's given me a very overcrowded closet. It makes me want to go shopping and buy the latest and greatest clothing and jewelry.

Me: What are some of your favorite clothing/jewelry pieces that you own?

Donna: My wedding ring, a couple pieces from Ectera, and my hats.

Me: How has you fashion changed since you were a kid?

Donna: Some fashion comes in and out of style. Things that were popular in the '70s are now popular in the '90s and today. It has never really drastically changed, it just seems to keep revolving.

Me: How picky are you with what you buy and wear?

Donna: I'm not very picky as long as it fits well. I'm pretty open to any styles and I'll try on anything. The main thing is is that it fits.

Me: If you could give any fashion advice to anyone, what would it be?

Donna: Don't overdo accessories. Keep the bulk to a minimum. Only accent one certain piece. Also, find a style that fits you and then get creative with it. You may never know what you'll come up with.

Me: Alright, that concludes my fashion interview with my mom. Thank you for your time!

Donna: You're welcome!

That concludes my interview with my mom. She had very good answers and was on top of answering the questions. She enjoyed me interviewing her because it was on a topic she loves to talk about!
