Often a time, I look at the weather forecast and see what the temperature for that day entails. However, upon finishing getting ready and venturing out the door, I am awestruck with a completely different feel than what I expected. I mean even today, a regular Thursday, I looked at the forecast and it said high 40's... so like any normal New Englander, I put on some pants and a light jacket. The flaw in this decision wasn't necessarily the temperature though, it had everything to do with the wind, which was extremely powerful and almost unbearably cold. Long story short, I looked at the weather and was misguided as to how I could properly prepare myself for the day. So, where am I going with this?
Alright, my group from class and I are creating an app based on the relationship between the weather forecast and what people should wear. We want to ensure everyday users that our suggestions of what to put on for the day are on point and in relation to the latest trends. We have two versions: one tailored for the public which is free and the second targeted towards those that are willing to pay under a dollar for premium features.

The overall function of this app is to give a detailed weather forecast along with an outfit that guides the user with what to wear, depending on climate, wind chill, precipitation, etc. Of course the app is not yet ready, but we hope to work with clothing companies to have a display of their clothes. Anyhow, this is public version of the app. If there are any comments or ideas that you have or would possibly like in order to make the app better, we are more than willing to take them.
Within the app, there will be advertisements offering for the premium version, or upgrade. What we plan to do with this is link our already existing clothing companies into your personalized account. That being said, you will be able to customize your style be selecting outifts and types of clothes that you enjoy. Upon doing so, our app will generate a customized "closet" for you. So let's say you see an outifit you absolutely love from American Eagle: you will then have the opportunity to select the items you want, such as a cute romper for a hot summer day, and it will automatically give you access to deals for that particular store. Keep in mind that these deals are from our app, not store discounts. Furthermore, the upgrade will hopefully parnter with snapchat so that you and other friends can upload your outfits onto both apps just to see what others are wearing. Of course, the app is not yet finished, but we ask that if you have any suggestions or ideas of interest, let us know! We are eager to find out whether there would be a vast amount of users or not.
Thank you so much! My group and I are excited to hear from you!
