EIGHTH GRADE Fashion is how you look Everyone has their own look and as you grow-up your individuality shows through what you wear and how you wear it. An outfit isn ' t just things you put on, an outfit is a statement of your own personal character. When I was younger my mom would pick out my outfits, but now that I ' m older I decide what to wear and how to wear it, Lisa Smith said. Fashion is important to ev- eryone and the eighth graders prove it. This year was a year to grow up, to move one step closer to High School and what is worn depends on how much you ' ve grown. Not only phys- ically but also mentally. The way I dress has changed now that I ' m older be- cause before I didn ' t care, I thought it didn ' t matter. But now I like clothes that are sporty, Roza Ekimyan. Some began to worry even more about their appearance this year. That ' s when it be- What clothes do you really love wearing the most? My favorite thing to wear are jeans, baggy pants, and sweat shirts, Cindy Fuentes said. I love wearing jeans and T-shirts, Kim Wil- liams said. I won ' t wear anything but jeans in any shade and heavy metal T-shirts. My favorite T-shirts are Me- gadeth, Metallica, and Iron Maiden, Ricky Koenig said. I like wearing shirts that have pictures on the front with pants and mini skirts, Roza Ekimyan said. came time to decide if to wear something that looks good even if it may be uncomfortable or to wear something comfortable even if you don ' t look to good. I like wearing clothes that look good and hopefully are comfortable, but I ' d rather look good than be comfortable, An- gel Echavarria said. I like being comfortable but I don ' t like looking stupid either because then I ' m embarrassed. So I try to wear clothes that look good and are very comfort- able, Rayan Smith said. To some the labels they wear affect what they wear. A few believe that labels are the most important part of their outfits. Labels do affect what you wear and what people think of you, because some people will think you are stuck up. My fa- vorite labels are Esprit, Guess, Gotcha, Milano, Bongo and Channel, Marianna Chilin- garyan said. So through their fashion eighth graders are showing a new sense of maturity. By Heidi Lazo Wow totally cool man — Matt Den- ney admires James Johnson ' s T-shirt. Almost all of the eighth grade guys really like wearing T-shirts in all col- ors and jeans in all shades of blue and of course sneakers. You look so cute — A group of eighth graders hang around near the cafeteria and compliment each other on their outfits. Looking good is more impor- tant to eighth grades now than it was a few years ago. 134 Eighth grade Faces
