LIVING THE DREAM ON TROPICANA ISLAND

Loving the carnival vibes, covered in paint, drinking rum. The guy is my Boyfriend



Foreday Morning, partying from midnight till sunrise, ending on the beach. Perfect



So, this summer I had a little taste of the Caribbean in Barbados. My Mumma Mia is from there so I went to visit family that I hadn't seen for ten years. I went during crop over so there was a full two weeks of party's, I went hardcore, it was great. 



Exploring the markets on a lovely Sunday morning.

I love organic food and healthy eating, I especially love Coconut Water



Looking soo fancy with my face paint


Kiddies Kadooment, basically the children's carnival


Whenever I go abroad, I always like to soak myself into the culture and see their way of living, i find it refreshing aswell as interesting. The locals can definitely know how to through a party and they can party hard.  The food is amazing, especially being Vegetarian theres so much available. 


Dancing like I own some

THE LITTLE DRESS OF BLACK

I never used to wear black, I must have been pretty lost

Dress: Zara


Summer is the weirdest time of year to fall in love with black, clothes are meant to reflect emotion, at the moment I have none

Crop Top: H&M // Shorts: American Apparel


The dress code at my internship was black and white which is how I first fell in love. Now I've finished my internship, finished uni and I'm home for summer, but I'm still wearing black, I'm addicted. I love coming home back into the country side, refreshing and calm, takes all the stressful thoughts away.



I feel as though I look a bit like Wednesday, but thats good because I like Wednesday

Jumper: & Other Stories // Shorts: American Apparel


I knew there was meant to be a reason why there is such thing as Black Beauty

Playsuit: H&M


Constantly changing character

Dress: Topshop // Shirt: Falmer Jeans



I can see why Coco Chanel created 'Little black dress'

Dress: H&M


I've just started my dissertation, which is themed on the dark side of glamour, I love it, its just perfect. 


Have I gone into the dark

I HAVE DISCOVERED SERENITY

MULBERRY















During the Easter break I have been interning at Mulberry. I started in February for London Fashion Week which was a great experience of hard work, although it was a shame that Mulberry didn't have a show at Somerset House, but the Claridges dinner did work well in their favour.

Firstly the office was amazing; such a nice environment. Whilst working there, I was so involved I really felt like a part of the team. 

I had a lot of responsibilities throughout the day, starting in the morning by looking through press for coverage or mentions, but also any news on the fashion role, which was then reported back into the morning meeting, the coverage is then scanned throughout the day and sent to everyone in the company as 'latest press'.

I was working closely with social media, so I was active on all their platforms. Also, I had to find new and upcoming UK bloggers that would be appropriate for Mulberry , which was great for me as I love looking up new blogs, I then had to research a bit about the blogger, their viewers and their circulation rating. I had all the bloggers in a database which I had to present in the meetings, which was really helpful in getting me in the habit of presenting professionally.

During my time at Mulberry there was a press day, it was really good greeting press at the door and being able to put a face to a name and start building relationships with them. 

After being at Mulberry for three months I was lucky enough to see what happens daily within the press calendar, I was especially lucky to attend the preview meeting for the new collection, and it was really interesting to hear where they got all their inspiration from and how that turned into a collection. 

I feel like now that I've worked at Mulberry I have had an insight into the luxury market which is where I want to go, so I feel like I've definitely crossed a new path in order to get to the level I want to go when I graduate.
