Analysis
During our project the things that went well, was the fact that we had many reactions. Also how well we went through with our plan. This project really had an impact on us. It showed us how even though you may look different on the outside it doesn't show who they are. People could learn how not to judge on appearances. We struggled in trying to be someone who we are not. The only way it would have not worked was if we couldn't stay in character for long periods of time. Overall, the project went well, and we experienced things that we normally would have the chance to experience.

Other shoes.
The drive to the mall was a bit ridiculous, me and Tyler had my mom drive us, just so we didn't have to deal with everyone giving us looks. But unfortunately that didn't happen, we still had many people glare at us. We were dressed to impress with our non-matching shirts and pants, long socks, our shirts were over sized along with our pants. The most uncomfortable part was leaving the car to walk into the mall. This is where many of the weird looks began because Tyler and I start talking to ourselves. Once in the mall, we split up, Tyler did 3 stores and I did 3 stores on the upper level. Tylers first store was American Eagle Outfitters, inside many of the customers gave her looks but never said anything. She made a once through and ended up saying things to a manikin, and picked up a pair of jeans she wanted to buy. The cashier was still talkative but gave her a look down. Next stop was Hollister, in the store not one worker tried to help her but 11 people stopped and watched/ looked at her. Last but not least was Victoria Secret, where not many customers seemed to care what she was doing and minded their own business and kept on shopping. But from observations 6 people gave her weird looks. Now for my turn, my first stop was Charlotte Russe. This store was not as noticeably busy as the other stores but I still was glared at by the cashiers working at the store, probably because I rearranged a few things. Next store was Buckle, one of the most expensive stores in the mall. While inside you could tell from the looks of the customers that they knew that I didn't look like the time to be in this kind of store. Lastly, I went to Vanity, where a mom and her daughter were shopping and once i started to walk near them, the mom took her and her daughter towards a whole new part of the store away from where I was shopping. Finally, me and Tyler both decided that we would go to one store together, and that was ICING. In the store, we tried on many pairs of sunglasses and wore around the store a bunch of jewelry. People in the store laughed at us and one little girl asked us why we were wearing what we were wearing. hahaha But to top our whole day off at the mall, Tyler and I decided to ride the escalator up and down several times, which created a lot of stares and laughs.
