3rd Week EOC
Being a cohesive group within our own individuality has
always been a goal for most women I know who are going out for a couple of
cocktails with a quick bite. Even a pack
of men, who are out for beers, find it awkward showing up with the same patterned
shirt or style of dress, wearing checker print shirts alike. Unless you’re in
uniform, it doesn’t make you stand out in the crowd.
I purpose “Best Dressed”, an app that acts as an event fashion
stylist amongst friends to help avoid showing up in the same attire. I can recall a time or another where someone
arrived with less than appropriate clothing on too. This app would also be great for Family photos
and office functions. I am not familiar with
an app being out and/or being popular for such reasons as “Best Dressed”. Why not avoid the embarrassment of it all and
let “Best Dressed” style your next event?
“Best Dressed” will sync
to all attending within your social group keeping them informed of the latest
weather as well as links to fashion trends based on a profile survey required to
determine you style and favorite silhouettes for different body types by
gathering this information and the same as your fellow ‘go-ers’. By adding a theme song to the event will also
act as the tempo for the night or expression.
The main idea behind it would be to
properly announce what you will be wearing by a multitude of descriptions to
your friends, and help keep time updates for a synchronized arrival for a
seamless entrance! Eventually leading to the actual event being
able to send invites directly and/or privately.
Best Dressed can/will serve as a promoting platform for events of an
array of multifaceted outings.

Best customer service experience
As discussed in class, one of my
best customer services experiences has to be a time I was on port visit in
Palma de Mallorca, Spain. My friends and
I had just arrived after our long voyage across the Atlantic. We were all hungry but for more than a
burger. What we got was better than imagined.
Our table was ready right away which is a plus considering we were by
foot. Immediately the celebratory
spirits filled the room; connection despite the language barrier was felt and
the need for a great beverage was recommended.
Our first pitcher of made to order Sangria was our entertainment while our
entrées were cooking to perfection. The taste
resonates in my mind to this day. As
well as the level of services that were made available to use during the
remainder of the visit.
“Brands affect people’s live simply because they are part of our daily
choices and decisions” (More Than a Name: An Introduction to Branding, page 32)
and this instants proves true. My
friends and I went back throughout our whole trip, telling all that we knew, even
taking more friends each visit. Although
the liberty call lasted 4 days, the amount of people who visited the restaurant
grew just by word of mouth. The
employees and quality of their products spoke wonders of the
establishment. Just that quick this
steak house became the talk of the ship.
To this day I have remembered my time in Palma, Spain for thirteen years
and for many more years to come.
If ever I am to travel back to
Palma, one of my first priorities would be to retrace my steps and find this restaurant,
hoping it has survived whatever economic strife may have plagued the area and
order myself a steak dinner.

Week 1 EOC My voice
I'm inspired by life and the culture
within it, wherever it may be, I care to understand and think logically. I am intrigued by style, grace, and luxury. Well received by many during my travels in the
Navy helped create lifelong friendships. While taking courses towards my higher
education to explore my interests, leading to where I am now. Where I am now is more careers specific to me
and my passions and now arriving at the right doors. Currently I am enrolled at The Art Institute
of Las Vegas for my Bachelor of Science in Fashion Design. I am looking to apply this to my own venture
as a Personal Stylist. I know that my travels
around the world with the military have given me an edge as to have seen a wide
range of styles first hand. Working in
retail sales, helping men and women put together an ensemble or updating the wardrobe
brings a bit of pride and accomplishment.
I find joy in helping others feel and look confident. I feel good having my closest friends over and
admiring the choice of home décor and color pallets I’ve selected drawing on
the several Mediterranean countries and islands our ship would visit along
deployments.
I look forward to the hard work and
new travel destinations I have in front of me.
I know it will take courage, flexibility, knowledge and a lot of time
management to continue my climb to success.
With a clearer path than ever before, my journey is limitless with my
time being now. With the completion of
my degree on the horizon, I have realized the true definition of what I want to
be remembered for in my life time. The Intelligent,
Achieving and Successful Mieisha; and she did it with Style!
