I noticed that the Fresh Food Company is a great place to people watch. A lot of different kinds of people from many communities go there to eat. I did make some specific observations, however, while I was there other than noticing the huge variety of clothing styles. It seemed like the more "popular" people had far more more layers of clothing than other people, who usually kept thir styles pretty simple for the most part. These people must be much more concerned on what other people think about them, and that is probably what happens often in their community. I also noticed that the only shorts that people wore (other than me) were athletic shorts. I guess that means they could have come from a society where athletics is important, and that sports wear can be interchanged with normal attire.
One particularly interesting clothing I noticed was one person who decided to wear a gold, green, and purple striped shirt. I guess his community was influenced to some extent by the French and/or Cajun peoples, and therefore he had no problem sporting Mardi Gras colors, which, I think, made him look a little weird.
