Urban Outfitters Press Day SS15

A few weeks ago i helped out at the Urban Outfitters SS15 press day, it involved a lot of hard work organising and chasing suppliers to get the samples delivered in time, but as you can see from the finished result, no efforts were wasted! 

Bloggers and Magazine representatives attended the event, who were spoilt with goody bags and on-site caterers serving canepés - not bad huh! 

Calvin Klein, Reebok & Vagabond are just an example of the many elite brands featured, alongside Urban's ownbrand range. Its safe to say i know where i will be shopping come Spring 15.

St Pauls Carnival Outfit

Top - American Apparel, Dungaree Dress - The Ragged Priest, Bag - Topshop,  Trainers - Adidas

This outfit was put together for St Pauls Carnival in Bristol; the dress was bought in the sale along with the bag - absolute bargains! I have now started working at Urban Outfitters HQ along with working a second job to fund my London life... so apologies for the lateness of this post! 
The shoes are my new all time favourites, combining my love of platforms and trainers! 
I will be uploading a post soon of my move to London and my new house!!

JJ Studios (2) - Shoreditch

This month i've been doing some work experience at Phase Eight with my cousin in the creative department, helping out on their AW14 shoot. We worked with the beautiful model, Pauline, from Belgium. Among many of the amazing locations (will upload posts soon) this was by far my favourite. JJ studios is located in Shoreditch, and boasted a shabby chic interior. 

Not long now until i start working at Urban Outfitters... counting down the days!

Phase Eight AW14 Studio Shoot

A couple of weeks ago I went to London for an interview for the accessories buying internship at Urban Outfitters HQ, behind their flagship store on Oxford Circus, and i got it! Yaaaay! So i will be starting there in July. While i was there i stayed at my cousins house in Dalston; she's the art director for Phase Eight so let me tag along for the day and sit in on their AW14 shoot before the interview. 

The studio was amazing, as you can see from the pictures, and in such a great location (Shoreditch)... I've visited Hackney before, but i'm certain now that this is where i want to live when i move up in June!

Check mate - Layout 1

Dress - Missguided // Shoes - Asos // Bag - Topshop // Necklace - Urban outfitters // Mesh top - Topshop 

I've been super busy recently with university and looking for somewhere to live in London, so unfortunately haven't had time to take many outfit photo's... so to save time i decided to do a cheeky "layout" post. I couldn't resist this checked number by Missguided, and their stuff is pretty cheap so i didn't feel too guilty.. I paired it with some cut out boots and a baby blue satchel (Both purchased last year). 

I don't normally wear dresses but i'm trying to move out of my comfort zone! I have one month left of uni then i will be moving to London in may to start my buying internship at Kurt Geiger.. Eeeeee!

Work experience at Kurt Geiger HQ - London

Thought i would post up the pictures of when i did my work experience at Kurt Geiger HQ in London. Was such an amazing experience! I worked within the buying department, and was in charge of updating the showroom (bottom pictures), creating product catalogs for appointments with brands like Topshop & Asos, and attending product fitting meetings.

First fashion post!

Trousers - River Island, Coat - Nasty Gal, Shoes - H&M, Bag - Urban Outfitters, Top - Yayer 

Excited to publish my first fashion post! Black and grey seem to be my favourite garment colours at the moment.. in fact my whole wardrobe is pretty monochrome!

I have a guilty pleasure for platform shoes... the bulkiness of them actually make your legs look slimmer - little fashion tip! I paired my high waisted 80's print trousers with a mesh top to give the outfit a casual vibe, along with my tweed coat to balance out the "busy" pattern on the trousers.
