with this snake print belt that I got from Goodwill it's a hundred percent

genuine leather yes yep thanks get your percentage anyone snakes in person

that's the best way to have a snake sorry it's a hundred percent genuine

snake skin I paired it with this black turtleneck it's a thin turtleneck but

it's so warm I'm sweating right now and of course a beret for a Parisian look I

like this cuz it looks like a dress when I stand up see it looks like a little

mini dress but thank you I like it you can get away with that in my age the way

my body said I can't quite get away with that you got the lids for it I guess if

I do it I have to do it with a short bootie or something like that

Oh that'd be cute okay mom suppose about your outfit so my outfit is a fully

drifted off but I didn't realize it was a fully threaded outfit I'm so glad I've

actually put it together mm-hm so my top is actually a cardigan

and I said you know I'm gonna change this look it's always been not quite

right so I belted it and I took it off the shoulder to kind of create that off

the shoulder asymmetrical mouth cute and then I put it over these facts now I

personally went out looking for specifically a slacker that could cut

into a culotte and this is just the perfect length I just need to have it

just slightly maybe an inch or two yeah and then I've got my Michael Kors

booties that I got from another estate sale two years ago but I love these

shoes I get so many compliments on them they're perfect they've got the perfect

little gold accent did you get them brand new cuz there's a really good day

where brand new when I got them and I've kept them well for these last year's

after a little bit of a repair the other day I loved them so much that

kind of love them out of the song so splitting a little bit but that's

neither here nor there now what I would suggest ladies of us of a certain age

you know we can't be having the girls hanging out so much so what I tend to do

with a lot of my blouses and my rap shirts and things like that I actually

put a little anchor button one of those little secure buttons that kind of snap

and I snapped my cleave shut a little bit and I am looking for the perfect

leather brown Obi belt that's coming as I said they're not quite the length of a

lot I'll probably bring them up about another inch or two like just under the

knee just under the knee but it's the perfect color combination I found under

the amount of chromatic door and I like it it's gorgeous

I like it a lot thank you tip is get you a husband or a dad who can sew because

that makes all of our alterations for us he has instructed that we will have an

instruction class coming soon yeah so we can do the basics that makes the hemming

and things like that yeah and we I think if you probably have a bag full of

things that you have projects yeah reverbs wreaths innocent yeah as we like

to say you guys know I love a good thrift transformation simple stuff like

this where you can take a take a cardigan and then resell it like a shirt

is easy but stuff that we want to sew and reconstruct we're gonna mean take a

sewing class from dad yeah and he's he's really good about it yeah he's been

fishing my stuff from years I don't sew but I cook very well uh-huh it's a good

balance it's about yes our next piece okay guys so next up we have kind of

more business casual outfits workers are my mom's outfit because it's so fly okay

so I don't mean for us Chanel look until I can afford an actual Chanel jacket

that's what needs so three months we need it doesn't have the little

Ferengi's on it that would make it true Chanel but oh

it's nice weed I don't know if you can really see the detail but this top got

like a burnt orange kind of gold Fleck going through it you're not that much

cute pearl buttons very 97 very - very cute very cute it's got the feel and the

look of this Chanel look that I did want yeah and I love how it buttons and kind

of tapers in that way yes it does good as me hits your waist gives me a little

definition that I want and this fine piece we got for six bucks it was six

dollars at Goodwill yes week and we really scored because Felicia went well

went and we each had a $5 coupon whoo none of us spent over $20 correct and I

got six pieces yep and William got five pieces including

his got his dad's and I got five belts and a couple of pieces yeah we were

really who really racked up this weekend but I'm wearing it with my classic

bootcut denim firmly firmly by and again I stole a white t-shirt out of hubby's

closet I have no shame in stealing to complete my look no point I need you oh

and I didn't have a white t-shirt that was a cap sleeve that I wanted that look

to finish so he'll have to get over it and I just paired it with my Michael

Kors booties that I was wearing earlier so there you have it so I like it and

your dope okay my bail actually my belt is actually the shoulder strap to my

Louis Vuitton Alma handbag so don't be afraid to pull things and we work them

as needed people really nice so theta softly uh mums look is very polished

very casual Friday but best dressed on office casual Friday like who do you

know in your office that has a Chanel inspired tweed jacket you know that's

okay until we can get the sugar okay Chanel inspire will do just fine it

looks and it hits your waistline really well you have such a natural narrow

waist it hits it perfectly we tried everything else a little bit so the next

piece I paired once again with my classic black turtleneck I feel very

Parisian in a turtleneck boring combo and then I got a quarter ROI skirt from

loft I know if we bought this in a story we probably like what 40 bucks for this

yeah so this is a quality piece that I know it's gonna last long I gotta go

weightless I got this in the SAC sale so I probably paid like 80 cents a piece

for this yes honestly such a s'more I've paired it with a simple black top but

this would look good with another quarter right have you seen those

corduroy button-ups I had I had would wear this with another quarter a

button-up like maybe like that it would be like not pattern mixing color

blocking it won't like color blocking and I think that would be a really fun

look but for now simple black Parisian style well we pair with this I would do

a knee-high boot even if it's just a flat boot I would do a knee-high boot

and a sheer stockings oh thank you yeah they're really very fall style

now you mentioned the sack sale I did the map the other day oh yes um I ended

up spending about 17 dollars and really the 17 dollars was only because I end up

spending $4 on a half priced item that I just that I found on the floor

everything on the floor a blue ticket items on Saturday were a half price off

and I found like the one you take that item and it was really little cute shirt

dress I'll show it later we must have but I had to have I just loved it I was

looking for a particular shirt I love the pattern so I got that one but

I did the math we did I ended up with twenty seven pieces in my home and

they're just like you know top skirts jackets yeah a little bit of everything

free but I only paid $15 for the 27 pieces they're gonna end up doing I

added up just not even I guess I would say thrift retail what the tags

initially said it was a hundred and eighty dollars I spent a total of

between goodwill and the sack sale at Salvation Army is $35 yes and that's

thrift retail is the 180 I imagine in stores right now we would have paid

upwards of six seven hundred dollars fat well the pieces we got yes yes more

addicted we we went 13 at Salvation Army on Saturday morning and then Sunday

morning we wants a goodwill because there was just too many sales to keep

track of and that's good and we have to use that I'm not just gonna let a coupon

expired yeah man so first up we have my outfit my Nancy Drew right so I stop

this with a fashion Nova is this called a Julie yeah yeah as a fashion tokaji

lay which is just like a sleeveless jacket some gorgeous matching corduroy

pants and of course my black turtleneck this is like my go-to in the fall I

really like this look because it's a business look but it can also be going

out look like if you're going out for drinks or something after you add a good

statement necklace and you're just you know very chic very professional there

is amazing this is professional but no no is good

turtleman no this is 13 oh this is from two months ago sexy okay because Macy's

has termites just like that with the same ruching on the sleeves I have two

of them that means I got a good good deal all right thinking about Inc and

they're like a so this is like Oh bleep yeah that's

that's amazing that's what makes you soft friend okay deal

yes I did not spend I did not know it did okay that's okay we've made up for

it with or without shopping recently now that's one thing I do find that do I

will spend money on quality basic piece absolutely so that I can admit to Mac

yeah are you kind of blend in with some of your thrifted fine yeah no with some

of your better quality higher-end pieces and I'm finding that even with rifting

you still fun higher and he says yeah you don't end up paying higher end

prices you could be picky when it comes to thrifting I told you guys before I'm

really trying to get away from polyester when you haven't learned from my mom

it's not a breathable fabric it's not good for the earth it's just not a good

fabric in general the amount of 100% cotton 100% wool quality pieces that

we've been able to find through thrifting it's impressive and in Florida

cotton is your friend even silk is better than polyester

I mean some people would think that silk doesn't breathe but it grew a lot more

than polyester does not I mean I don't want to knock anybody because sometimes

you just find that really great piece and usually you just have to happen yeah

but with the understanding that there's one me some discomfort in the heat of

the day I'm a little toasty and we live in Florida so we always have to think of

that always so what else did we finished how

do we finish our book I would pair this with a simple black ankle bootie to tuck

under the corduroys I think that would just be a really simple finish to the

look if I really want to dress it up I would tuck the corner boys into a thigh

high boot and I am just really give it like edge okay a good like stiletto

thigh high boot gonna be fun you train that looks it tell us about your

fabulous finds so we're talking about I'm laying the Michael Kors top we got

it for four bucks at Goodwill it's got a balloon sleeve I love the muted blended

colors and one of these kind of like a animal print

yeah it kind of gets like a river like a snakeskin yeah like a contrary

like an abstract and I paired it with another thin piece that we got from one

of our sacks sales I want to say this skirt it's a vintage piece from the 90s

but I can't remember off the top of my head but as soon as I saw that I was

like if any of you from New York there was a store called Bradley back in the

day and he would go and rack up you know clothing and they had laid away and I

remember some of these pieces in this particular purple tweed and they also

had like it was the weirdest color turquoise but it was a similar tweet

fabric and it is beautifully lined it's silk lining it's 1/8 and I remember the

piece and might have been the pieces because it would have a matching jacket

or matching hug life similar best like this and her piece maybe 20 bucks but

they they kind of dealt with it was kind of like the precursor to Walmart back in

the day you can get everything in Bradley's your housewares your clothing

and they had layaway so this is when I saw this skirt that immediately reminded

me of that particular store for those of you who are back in the day remember it

Rockland County Bradley's yes so this is my look and I paired it with my booties

because they're easier to keep on my Michael Kors booties they kind of work

with just about everything they go with everything so that's what I did

that's our looks that's how it looks for the day and we're gonna go back yeah

we're gonna go back we have way more to show you guys and we're gonna go back to

the sack sales we're gonna go back to Goodwill we have so much of our style to

share with you and so many of our tips my mom is just a wealth of knowledge

I tell you guys so much all time my mom says my mom says that whatever my mom

can tell you all right guys thanks for having us thanks for watching and have a

beautiful day

Meet Code Creators: Fusion of Dance, Fashion and Technology - Duration: 28:08.

[MUSIC]

>> Today, on Skype in the Classroom

we're talking all about the fusion of

dance, fashion, and technology.

We'll meet Miral Kotb, founder of iLuminate,

a dance crew whose code powered light

suits wild the judges on America's Got Talent.

We'll also hear from Maddy Maxey,

a coder on the forefront of wearable technology.

She'll tell us how tech is shaping the fashion trends of tomorrow.

Let's get creative.

[MUSIC]

>> Hello from Egypt.

>> Hello from Vietnam.

>> Hello from India.

>> Hello from Indiana in the United States.

>> Hello from Nigeria.

>> Hola from Puerto Rico.

>> Hi from Greece.

>> Hello from Canada.

>> Hello from the Microsoft campus in Redmond,

Washington, and welcome to Skype in the Classroom.

Some of you may have learned to write code,

play with code, and make things with code.

This series is about opening

your mind to the possibilities of what you

could do with those skills by

introducing you to some amazing code creators.

I'm Dona Sarkar, and together

we'll take a journey to meet creators,

combining their creativity and

tech skills to make some amazing things.

I really love today's topics so much of tech, dance,

and fashion because apart from being a coder,

I'm also a fashion designer.

A few years ago, I went to fashion school during evenings and

weekends and I used holograms to make my fashion line.

I'll share a lot more about that later.

But first, let's introduce our first code creator.

Miral Kotb is the founder of the dance crew iLuminate.

She's going to join us in just a moment.

But before she does, let's check out this video produced by

Great Big Story to see how she uses

code to create light suits for her dancers.

[MUSIC]

>> People who are not in STEM and have

an outside look at software development,

sometimes don't understand how truly creative it is.

Reading lines of code is like reading poetry.

It's an art form in itself and it's

a culture of really bringing ideas to light.

[MUSIC]

>> I started coding when I was nine years old,

and I've been dancing since I think I was able to walk.

My father is a dancer,

so it was in my blood.

So, I had a plan in life.

I had a direction. I was going to be a professional dancer.

Everything was lined up.

Then, I got cancer. It changed the whole path of my life.

While I was in recovery,

I'm not really good at sitting still,

and so I was writing software from the hospital bed,

I've gotten almost obsessed,

like it was something that just kept me going.

When I came back home,

I wanted to dance again.

I was in the midst of trying to find

ways to mix dance and technology,

and that's when I came up with the idea of the light suits and

wirelessly programming them to make really amazing visual art.

>> All right. I'm going to stop at this cue when it

starts.Let's just see if this is right before they dance.

>> We were up hours and hours and hours writing

a software and trying different things.

It was a lot of fun.

The end product is as simple as me

pressing one button and the lights turn on.

Another button and they change color.

A few buttons and a sequence happens.

We were performing in

public spaces and the more positive reactions we got,

the more confident was to just go for it.

In just a few months after that,

we were on America's Got Talent,

and the rest is kind of history.

>> It groundbreaking what you do.

It's incredible.

You create everything from zero,

and it's just brilliant.

>> We've worked with Chris Brown,

Death Cab for Cutie, Christina Aguilera,

Black Eyed Peas. Then we also had our own show that has

been in the heart of Broadway for several years and

is touring both nationally and internationally.

I can go on and on.

The future for iLuminate is definitely education.

I want to be able to have

students from different backgrounds work and collaborate

together because if you learn how to

respect people who do something different than you,

and have them respect you back,

that kind of skill set will really take

you farther in life.

>> We're joined now by the brilliant and effervescent Miral Kotb.

Hi Miral, how are you?

>> Good. How are you, Dona?

>> Thank you so much for joining us today.

>> Thank you for having me.

>> It is so amazing to meet someone who I've been following

for almost 10 years doing such extraordinary things.

So, I loved what you said in the video

about coding being like poetry,

and I've never heard that before.

Can you share a little bit more with

the students about what you mean by that?

>> Of course. So, coding

is a language that you give to the computer,

and once that computer reads that language,

it creates something for you.

Then, just like you may have

friends who speak a different language than you,

whether it's Spanish or French or Swahili,

there are different coding languages that you can use.

Once you put different words together in

that language, create sentences,

and then when other software developers

read your code when they want to understand it,

it's like they're reading your own poetry.

They are reading what you've

created to solve that particular problem.

So, really I see code as an artistic endeavor.

>> I love that. So I've been

following iLuminate for almost 10 years now.

But I'm sure the students would love to hear.

Can you tell us a little bit more about how

just this amazing idea originated.

>> Of course. Though I've been writing lines of code,

I think I was nine.

I'm a bit older so when my parents got the

first desktop,when it was quite new to have a desktop,

and I was fascinated.

I have a dance background.

I think since I was maybe born,

I was moving. I couldn't sit still. My parents

put me in dance classes at the age of five and I loved it.

But I never put the two together.

For years, I kept it separate.

So, when I went to college,

I actually studied computer science at

Columbia University but I decided I also wanted to dance.

So, I was in New York City dancing and taking

classes and trying to get into the dancing professionally.

Then, I graduated college,

and I had planned to pay off all my student loans,

and then pursue dancing professionally.

So, the next step,

of course, check out with the doctor that you're okay.

It ended up that I had cancer.

When I got diagnosed,

I had to have a surgery to remove the tumor right away.

So, after this a surgery and the radiation,

I couldn't walk anymore.

I had no muscle movement in my right hip. Quite scary.

So, the long and short of it is,

the dream of being a professional

dancer had to go a different route.

So, I worked as a software developer

and really honed in on my skills,

and fell love with software and code even more.

I was hooked, hooked, hooked.

Then, I started writing iPhone apps.

Then, I went to an Apple developers' conference to see what I

could learn about iPhone apps

because I wanted to write my own apps,

not just work for other companies who were creating apps.

They were talking about how small wireless chips were,

and how you can use your iPhone to

communicate wirelessly with different devices.

I thought well, what can I do with

this technology with dancing because I always

kept them separate but what if I could find

a way to put my two loves together.

So, I thought quite a bit about it,

and what I thought was,

how do I make dance more accessible to non-dancers?

>> Right.

>> So, the idea was put lights on the body,

and make them wirelessly controlled from a central unit,

so you could create these amazing magic shows of

dance where the dancers were

doing certain things and a head could fall off,

and arm could stretch.

Just really have really cool lighting effects

where people disappear and reappear,

and it goes to the music.

So, I went for it about two years of R and D. No sleep.

A lot of my money went into the project

but I was able to successfully create a prototype.

From there, it just took off.

>> I love how you said that the dream of dancing didn't end,

it went in a new direction.

>> Absolutely.

>> Because you had this background in

dancing and you applied technology to it,

you were able to create something that's never existed.

I love that you talked about this.

We've been sharing with the students some of

this where once you combine tech and creativity together,

you wind up creating things that have never existed.

That have absolutely never existed. So cool.

>> For sure.

>> So, what was the actual building process like?

You're at the prototype phase,

then you've managed to believe in your idea.

What were the actual steps like to build one of these light suits?

>> Exciting.

>> Yeah.

>> Hard.

>> Yeah.

>> When you're doing a startup,

sometimes you have to be very creative

with what you do with the resources that you have.

>> Right.

>> Which is actually quite telling of

an engineering mindset because you always have

to solve problems with certain constraints.

So, I did not have anybody

who had a background in fashion design or wardrobe,

but I knew that the one big important step

was how do you make it look good.

Then also safety, because you're putting electronics on a dancer,

battery operated electronics with wireless control,

and the lights themselves take quite a bit

of engineering to turn

on in a way that is visible to the audience,

and safe to the dancer.

So, we spent quite a bit of time in the lab,

writing and creating our own circuitry so that

it delivered what we wanted to, as well

as it not getting too

warm because then the dancers wouldn't get

too hot with the device on.

It wouldn't smoke on the dancers because it

was smoking sometimes in the lab.

And it would have it's a little quirky moments,

a little shock here or there.

So a lot of the beginning of building it was still in

that engineering mindset and then taking it

engineering mindset and trying to make it look cool.

>> Yeah.

>> Then also working with dancers to see

how they can move with these lights suits,

and what interesting movement we could come up with.

So the sets were definitely... the code started it all.

Once you had a solid codebase and you had

solid engineering and hardware

then you went into the testing phase,

which is when we would put light suits

together really basic light suits,

but just to test the concept to see will this look cool.

Then once we got that working then we

worked on a language so that we could write

effects onto the dancers that would look

cool and be synced to the music and be accurate

with timing so that the choreography, the

dancing and music were meshed

like one. Rather than

all the separate pieces that were put one on top of the other,

it was really something that had to come together.

So every single component of the performance is important.

One cannot live without the other.

>> I think it's so powerful to realize that

it's not a matter of like which is more important.

The dance or the fashion, or the technology.

It's the story of course and then all of these things

come together to create that magic that we all see on stage.

>> Yes.

>> Cool. So, when you want to

choreograph a new dance how do you start?

What does the process look like?

>> Well first, we like to find music,

I think myself and our choreographers are very inspired by music.

Because as you can see in our shows,

it's so much about what the dancer feels.

So, first we find music,

and then we want to figure out what are we trying to say,

what kind of characters do we want to create. Is it a story?

Is it just a fun dance that's just has lots of effects and

tumbling and is a wow show,

or are we trying to say something with the dancing?

Then once you've made that decision,

then our wardrobe and technical team starts

to create the costumes off of sketches that will look

and embody what we're trying to create. And

the choreographer will work

with the dancers to create movement that

matches the music and what the light suit will look like.

Then the exciting part is when

everybody separately has finished

their part and we bring it all together. And

that's when the dancers get put into light suits,

and I sit with the choreographer. I look at the choreography,

and figure out what lighting effects would really

make the dance pop. And I write the cues.

I'm in front of my computer. The dancers are

doing their thing. And we see, does this work?

Does that work? That didn't look quite right.

Oftentimes, the mistake will happen and we'll be like,

"That was actually really awesome,

we should keep it." And you just keep playing,

and by the end,

you have this piece that we all came

together to create. And it's, as I've said

again, it's a collaboration with

such unique and very driven minds coming together

with mutual respect for what we all do, so that we

can create something beautiful

together that we could not have done on our own.

>> I love that, especially that mistake

that turned out to be awesome.

It's like a bug that became a feature.

>> Oh my gosh.

>> It happens a lot.

>> Yeah.

>> Yeah.

>> So many features.

>> Yeah, because you can't plan everything.

Oftentimes, like this worked out pretty well.

>> Yes.

>> So you've talked a lot about your team and

how there's so many different kinds

of people and how you work together.

What do you think is the secret to your team success?

Because you obviously work together incredibly well.

>> Passion, inspiration, and autonomy.

I think autonomy is a unique word.

What that essentially means

is I give people the freedom to be themselves.

I don't look over

their shoulders and check on everything they do because I try to

bring people together who are self-motivated

and really have visions that they want to

bring to life as well. So they're not coming at it as a job

or I just have to get this and that done and I'm good.

But they really bring their heart and soul into

it and are self-motivated to make sure that

what comes from their side is at

the same level of

professionalism and accuracy that

the other people in the team bring.

So we're definitely balancing each

other and challenging each other.

>> It's so amazing hearing about this journey,

it's getting this behind- the-scenes look too, at

how you think about your work

not just at the beginning but right now.

Your work is incredibly inspiring.

I'm sure all the students around the world are equally in awe.

We've got a few questions they'd like to ask you.

>> Love it. Yes.

>> So here is our first student question.

>> No, never.

>> Of course not.

>> Oh man, we call them Miral Bugs. Everything has bugs.

Sometimes it's a Miral Feature.

But one time again,

when we were starting out when we didn't have

the biggest budgets, I had a role in the show,

but I was also writing the cues and

this was our Off Broadway show.

I wanted to balance out all the lighting effects and

so I started a writing functions which are very

important in coding. And it's quite

important for you to have your code readable

by others, so you want to break things

into easy to manage functions.

So I took what I had written and

looked for anything that was repetitive

and I would create functions for it.

So I write a function to fade out one of the dancers.

She was one the girls in the show.

And we didn't really have time to

test everything I did because it was

quite busy and very understaffed.

So, I'm onstage doing my thing,

and a dancer finishes it's the end of scene.

It's suppose to go black so that the next scene can begin.

We don't really do exits because we don't need to,

since the lights just turn off.

So, she just never turns off.

So, it turned out that my fade function actually faded her on, not off.

So every time she was supposed to turn

off she would actually just re-turn on.

>> Re-turn on.

>> So that was interesting.

And one of our dancers found a black blanket but it was

translucent so he went and tried to put a blanket on her and

so then she was just like

this illuminating blob and she kind of just like--

>> She's like this light ghost.

>> Yes, this light ghost army crawling off stage.

I ran to the backstage area, fixed up function,

recompiled the code,

sent it to production, which you should never do again.

Never do this. But I sent it out to production and

it fixed it. But you think I would have learned from that.

>> Yeah.

>> But sometimes little Miral Features

come up here and there when we don't

have time to test. But I would say that was

one of the most memorable ones.

>> That's hilarious. That's the kind of thing that I would do all

the time like, "Oh I'm sure this is

going to work fine with no test needed."

>> Of course, it's just zeroes and ones,

it was literally was a zero versus a one.

>> Oh my gosh. That is fun.

>> So test your code. That is the moral of the story.

>> Yes. Test your code.

Oh my gosh, test your code.

Now, we have another question from a student joining us.

>> Wow. That is a really good question,

thank you. It does it with magic, of course.

>> Obviously.

>> Obviously, but it's over Wi-Fi.

So when you have your phone on and you have a wireless signal,

sometimes you'll join a network because

your cell phone signal isn't strong enough.

When you're at home you join a network,

so we have what we call our own

network and we use what's called 802.11

protocol which is essentially the same thing as when you use

your at home network or when

you're at a coffee shop joining a network.

Through that wireless protocol,

we're able to send information to

each light suit individually to tell it

what to do. So there's a master computer

that tells the light suits what to do.

>> And now, let's have one more student question.

>> Wow, another really good question.

Please do so, and let us see it.

The steps are quite fun.

First, you want to come up with your design,

and then you can work with

your friends and your family to make that design come to life.

Then, once you've done that,

you can work with these small circuit boards

such as Arduino boards.

You could use a wireless chip of your own to

light up the suit and

use the same type of circuitry to turn the lights on.

Then you can use off-the-shelf protocols to

send something to the suits to say "turn on" or "turn off."

So, it's a lot of fun because it includes hands-on work,

a lot of coding,

and working with friends

which I think is another important aspect,

is do it with your friends.

Do with your parents or your family,

because everybody brings something new to the table,

and it's important to learn how to work

with others and not try to do things on your own.

So, when you start building

your own light suit and writing your own lightning code,

bring your friends along, it'll be that much more fun.

Once you guys have the hang of it,

start creating your own little moments in

dances and share your ideas,

and see what each of you come up with as well.

So do something together and

then do a few things separately and share them.

>> I am definitely going to make my own light suit

because I have an Arduino board in my house.

So, I thought I actually do it.

I'm going to do it, and I'll make my team do it too.

>> Perfect, you have to send me the video.

>> I definitely will.

We have one more student question.

>> Man, these questions, they're

tough. How do you have the courage?

That's a good question. I don't

think you have time to think about the courage.

One of the things that I've learned in life is you just have to

go for it. Because if you start to think about it too much,

you will out psych yourself,

and the nervousness, the questions,

and the fear of failing and

these types of things will just take over.

So, there's no time to look back,

there's no time to question it,

and to think "What if?"

You just have to just go for it, commit to it,

and there's no other option but to go for it,

and that's where the courage comes,

is because you won't allow any of that doubt into your heart,

you just allow the courage to take over and you just go.

>> You just have to do the thing.

>> You just gotta go.

>> Love it. So, before we let Miral go,

I would love to know if you have

any piece of advice you'd like to leave our students with.

>> Any piece of advice...

Have fun, just have fun

because there's a lot of things in life that will challenge you,

and if you look at

these challenges in a way where it discourages you,

then it will keep bringing you down.

But if you allow these challenges to

inspire you to do better and be better,

then it will help you in all aspects of life.

So, whenever you're doing things,

just find the fun in it.

Find the fun in the challenges,

find the fun in the mistakes.

The way to take those mistakes and learn from them,

and do something that is so far beyond

what you would have done if you didn't make that mistake.

Just have fun.

>> Enjoy the bugs.

>> Enjoy it.

>> I love it.

>> Exactly, because you know what?

Those are the stories, we still laugh about it till today.

Bugs. Those are the stories

you will tell your friends, your family,

your children, your parents for years to come.

>> Absolutely, the best stories start with fiasco.

>> Exactly.

>> So true. That's a lot of really great advice, Miral.

Thank you so much for being here with us.

>> Thank you. Thank you so much.

>> Now, we're going to hear from a woman who is lighting up

the fashion industry with innovative wearable technology.

She was once a student just like you,

but she learned to code and now she's on

the forefront of fashion and wearable tech.

Her name is Maddy Maxey. She is one of the founders of Loomia.

Maddy is joining us via Skype to share a few thoughts

on the fusion of fashion and technology.

>> Thanks, Dona. Hi, my name is

Maddy Maxey and I'm Chief Innovation Officer here at Loomia.

At Loomia, I love to work with lots of different things,

but one of my favorite tools

is the sewing machine that you can see over here.

I also love working with the soldering iron,

which you can see over here.

A soldering iron is used to put together electronics.

So here at Loomia, we put together electronics and

textiles in order to make textiles do more.

Textiles are used in your clothing,

so it's all sorts of fabric like this fabric.

And our goal is to make that fabric smart.

So we want that fabric to be able to heat you up when you're cold.

It can do things like light you up to

be safe when you're outside and it's dark.

It can do things like change colors,

or maybe give you a little nudge on

shoulder to tell you which direction to turn.

In order to make that possible,

we have to work with a lot of different kinds of technology.

And one of the technologies that we use is code.

Code tells electronics what to do.

So, we write a different kind of code,

than the code that you use to make a website.

We write code that you use to instruct electronics.

And part of why I'm interested

in coding and why I learned as much as I

could is because code allows you to do more in the physical world.

It allows you to make things that move,

and think, but things that you can also hold.

It doesn't just mean making a website.

I wish you all the best of luck and thank you for

letting me join you in your classroom experience.

>> Thank you, Maddy. It's amazing to think about how

technology is totally changing

a decades-old industry like fashion.

I've been a software engineer for 15 years.

A few years ago, I was itching to create with my hands.

I've always been interested in fashion,

so I enrolled myself in

fashion school part-time without even knowing how to sew.

Thankfully, my engineering skills kicked in and I

quickly started to understand 3D visualizations,

how things fit together,

how to measure accurately, and stuff like that.

Soon, I was able to create clothes

that are similar to the ones in my closet,

after which I started designing my own garments, such as this one.

My fashion line will be called Prima Dona,

and we'll be releasing really soon.

It was my knowledge of coding that helped me realize

this passion for fashion. All right.

You know what it's time for? It's selfie time.

Teachers, please gather your students around the screen,

and we're going to take a selfie with Miral and her light jacket.

We'll give you a few minutes to set up.

[MUSIC]

>> All right, it's selfie time, one, two, three.

Wow, that's awesome.

Students, selfie time.

[MUSIC]

>> So fun, Miral,

thank you so much for being here with us.

That is awesome, the best selfie ever, I think.

>> Thank you so much for having

me again. This has been so much fun.

>> Of course. All this episode,

we've been sharing what's possible when you learn to code.

So, dive in and try it out.

If you haven't done so, do the Hour of Code.

It's an easy and fun way to get started.

Go to code.org/learn and find

hundreds of different lessons on

the basics of computer coding like loops,

functions, and if-statements.

If you've enjoyed this episode of Meet Code Creators,

there are four more you can view.

You can hear from two developers

from Minecraft about game development.

Learn about how computer science brought

illustrations from a Harry Potter book to life.

Explore how technology is used to animate movies like Coco,

The Incredibles 2, and discover

how artificial intelligence is helping make the world better.

And for all of you educators watching,

you can find more guest speakers and

go on virtual field trips with your class,

anytime of the year through Skype in the Classroom.

Thank you for joining us.

On behalf of Skype in the Classroom and Code.org,

we wish all of you feature code creators the very best,

as you bring your ideas to life.

22 Fashion Trends From The Early 2000s We Want To Forget - Duration: 11:07.

embarrassing fashion trends every girl thought looked good in the early 2000s

for every pair of bootcut jeans and bedazzled sunglasses

there's a girl cleaning out her closet wondering what was I thinking if you

want proof of how much time has passed just look back at some of these iconic

and memorable fashion trends from the early 2000s we rounded up some of the

worst because it's just more fun that way and also because there are very few

styles that actually look good now keep watching for the most embarrassing

fashion trends and styles that every girl thought looked good in the early

2000s number 22 tank top if you grew up in the 2000s you probably thought that

accessorizing your tank top was the equivalent to dressing up people aren't

exaggerating when they say that their closet staple and style in the early

2000s puts colored tanks tank tops with jeans with skirts with sweatpants you

name it people thought they went with everything and if they had a necklace or

a couple of bangles and they were ready for a night out

number 21 wristbands you thought wristbands meant for sweat made

acceptable bracelets well newsflash in the 2000s people wore them as fashion

accessories today I don't think anybody on the fashion runway or red carpet

would be caught dead wearing wristbands do you know what completely unnecessary

accessory every girl in the 2000s wore boom stick around to the end you'll find

out number 20 clever t-shirts you had an impressive yet shameful collection of

clever t-shirts you had t-shirts that were a play on popular slogans you had

t-shirts saying boys were scum or maybe you just had a t-shirt with some sassy

quote on it you even believed these t-shirts made you edgier

even though looking back insulting someone using your t-shirt doesn't

exactly scream original number 19 bedazzled sunglasses people

never felt they were cooler than when they wore their first pink tinted pair

of sunglasses with a rhinestone heart at the top right people who rock this look

thought they had the best style on earth not only were a lot of these sunglasses

rhinestone studded and tinted oftentimes they were also rimless and covered half

your face please bring these back keep watching as we continue to count down

the worst fashion trends from the early 2000s number 18 bucket hat you probably

owned an embarrassing bucket hat that you've since burned however not being a

child star like Lindsay Lohan you were probably too poor to afford the real

thing so it was most likely a Gucci knockoff or maybe some other equally

embarrassing denim perhaps version of it who decided this actually added to any

outfit number 17 a pashmina you owned a pashmina and you thought it worked with

any outfit you could probably only afford or justify buying one color but

that didn't stop you from taking any opportunity to wear it whether pink

purple or green like Cameron Diaz you made this scarf work with any shirt

jacket or dress you owned number 16 long Pleasant looking tops or dresses over

jeans I have no idea who convinced people that this style was a good idea

but we actually thought at one point in time that a dress belonged over jeans

how did this happen to make matters worse like lots of people you probably

wore those dresses over flared jeans because there just wasn't enough

material happening already number 15 pin straight hair you were hair straightener

happy you also wore shiny barely-there lipgloss you never felt better than when

you had just finished straightening your hair

having pin straight hair was the equivalent to you getting an updo at the

salon sometimes when you are feeling adventurous

you added small face-framing braids on either side of your face or a couple

more throughout your hair because you thought it made you look like you had

great style newsflash you didn't number 14 trucker hats you

wore trucker hats it's hard to believe how popular this trend became that even

celebrities wore them on red carpet but it's not an exaggeration

when I say the trucker hats became so big you wore them when you were dressing

up also at least one of the trucker hats you owned was probably Von Dutch number

13 peekaboo highlights if you are blond you

tried black or red or maybe both peekaboo highlights you also used blue

eyeshadow way too often we can probably blame pop stars like Christina Aguilera

for this popular hair trend but at some point in the early 2000s if you were

blonde you probably thought it was a good idea to add really dark highlights

in your hair or Claire's extensions if your mom didn't let you do that kind of

thing number 12 chunky highlights if you are

brunette you tried really obvious chunky highlights if you were a brunette trying

to get on the blatantly obvious highlights that looked nothing close to

your natural hair color look then you probably asked your hairdresser for some

chunky red or blonde streaks you also thought Destiny's Child would stay

together forever they didn't number 11 skinny scarf you

owned a skinny scarf and you worn even if it wasn't cold at some point in the

early 2000s a skinny scarf was the equivalent to a necklace people were

convinced that this fashion trend actually looked good you also had like

three chunky brown belts right number 10 cropped pirate pants

at least one pair you owned was probably camo I'm not sure of the successful

pirates of the carribean franchise contributed to this but there seemed to

have been some strange phase of looking like a pirate in the early 2000s from

ripped t-shirts to swash buckling pants for some reason we were really feeling

these baggy versions of capri pants we all loved way too much number nine

bathing suit tops for some reason bathing suit tops were really in around

this time - so was Charlie's Angels it seems like in the 2000s pretty much

anything could be played off as a shirt even a bandana don't laugh you know you

tried it I do have to admit I secretly enjoyed that the fashion of the early

2000s was so free but really bathing suits are a stretch literally number

eight you added weird accessories to your jeans I don't know why we felt it

necessary to add more stuff to already tacky statement jeans from various

terrible belts to weird little lace Bandos to just tying a scarf around them

we just couldn't get enough of decorating our favorite pair of pants

number seven the newsboy cap if you weren't wearing a bucket hat or a

trucker hat then you are probably opting for the even better option that is a

newsboy cap because nothing is funkier than wearing a cap that makes you look

like you just finished your newspaper run especially when you're an

award-winning artist number six you had jeans that tied in the front or at the

sides for some reason it was really attractive or so we thought to wear

pants that tied up at the crotch there was no real functionality to the laces

being where they were and no excuse why a zipper wasn't perfectly acceptable and

more reasonable alternative number five cowboy boots

you thought cowboy boots made an outfit better they didn't for some reason

cowboy boots were all the rage anyway remember when he wore cowboy

boots with a denim miniskirt jeans or even a dress even though you'd never

listen to a single country song or stepped foot on a farm yeah we forgot

that too number four low-rise jeans all your

jeans were low-rise most of them were probably faded and flared at the bottom

to remember the good old days when you could barely bend down for fear of your

underwear peeking out because your jeans were just that low just kidding I don't

think anyone is upset that this fashion trend is over number three you owned a

shirt that opened at the bottom you also had a belly button ring to write any

excuse to show off that mid-drift and we were on it you probably went with all

your friends to get that belly button ring and you went through the proof

phase at least once because for some reason we can no longer explain we all

believed that it was way attractive to add a little pouf to all of our

ponytails and half up deuce number two tiny shoulder bags tiny shoulder bags

were so in I'm guessing at some point in the 2000s you owned a shoulder bag denim

tiny shoulder bags were pretty trendy - yikes number one bangs some celebrity

convinced you to get bangs you tried to rock those front bangs at least once

even though they were not so fetch and you could barely see through them they

also got oily in less than a day and you had to constantly wash them the

sacrifices we made for fashion now that you've made it to the very end here's

the completely unnecessary accessory that every girl in the 2000s felt they

needed to wear a belt you added a belt to everything whether it be braided belt

that helped keep a sweater wrapped around your midsection a studded belt at

the top of your t-shirt or a chunky plastic belt that's just completely

unnecessary that includes you Lindsay no excuses

every girl in the 2000s was convinced they really needed to add this accessory

to all their outfits so now that you know all the crazy fads that were

popular back in the 2000s what other fads would you add to this list let us

Floyd Mayweather responded in brutal fashion to Khan's criticism of Nasukawa fight - Duration: 3:42.

Football News24/7  Floyd Mayweather vs Tenshin Nasukawa has been officially announced

 The exhibition fight will comprise of three rounds, which will last three minutes each, with standard boxing rules applied

 Nasukawa is a kick-boxer by trade, but will have to make do with his fists in the bizarre bout which will actually have no judges present

 There will be no official winner and the fight is being conducted purely on entertainment purposes, with Mayweather adamant he's still retired from the professional side of the sport

 As expected, Mayweather's decision has attracted criticism from those within combat sport, most recently Amir Khan

 "If you look at boxing and MMA - why is MMA and UFC surpassing boxing? Because they're putting the better fights on, they're putting the fights on that people want to see and these are just joke fights what Floyd Mayweather is doing," Khan said to Daily Mail

 "He's going to be getting a good cheque but it's hurting boxing isn't it? Boxing fans are going to buy the fight, think it's going to be a good fight, Mayweather is going to go in there and destroy the guy straight away (and) people will say it's a mismatch

 "The guy kicks well but you're not allowed to kick in this fight. If it was a kickboxing fight it would be different

"  Khan may have a point, with the Brit often linked with a fight against Mayweather during his career

 As such, Mayweather was never going to let his comments slide and he's responded in style

 https://twitter.com/MichaelBensonn/status/1070985458899914753  The Money Man said: "When he faced Canelo, we seen him comatosed

I was an old man when I faced Canelo and we all know that was easy work, probably some of the easiest work I ever had

"  Ouch, 1-0 to Mayweather.  Khan himself is said to be close to a world title fight against undefeated American Terence Crawford, which could take place in March
