How rude of me.
Hello Everyone!!
It's good to see you all again!!
How is everyone??
Full of cold??
Doesn't surprise me.
My nose runs and then my eyes water -
hate it!!
Anyway...
This was me on Wednesday after
popping in to London.
Have you ever had one of those
moments when you just thought O M G WHAT JUST HAPPENED!?!?!?!?! I have them
quite a lot mostly for the worst reasons.
I received an email last week asking
me if I would like to get involved with a fashion website, (I won't mention
their name yet just in case they change their minds HA HA). I remember reading
the email when I woke up and being completely shocked and confused (all my
pestering paid off). We all know what I'm like so I consulted with the
parentals and decided to go in for a chat. As my Dad rightly pointed out you
need to know what you're signing up for. The last thing I wanted to do is waste
their time. The chat was set to take place in a week's time. Fast forward one
week and it was time. I left home early as there was lot's of frost around and
apparently the trains were playing up. I got to the station (after running
around like a headless chicken) to get my train. I ended up getting a delayed
train so long story short I was up at Covent Garden by 9:30am, I was half an
hour early!! I did originally plan on going for a coffee or something; but when
I noticed that the Apple store was open I thought I might as well pop in. I'm
thinking of getting a Macbook Pro or an iMac; but as you all know I'm a
complete techno phobe so I have no idea what I'm looking at. I got talking to a
nice lady who was asking me what I was looking for, what I was going to use it
for etc. After explaining all about the laptops and computers, she recommended
I get a 15 inch Macbook Pro which is £2,299!! I literally had a heart attack
when I saw the price. That is way too much money for me to spend on a laptop
and I know it's a good laptop but still. It would literally take me 2 years to
save up and I can't wait that long. Anyway I ran up to Neal Street soon after and buzzed the
door. (I always hate buzzing doors because I never know what to say). I went up
to the reception area, where I was met and taking up to their offices (it
sounds so dull). To begin with I was really confused as I was sat at a table
and given a Mac, eventually I was kinda like 'what's going on??' But I was told
that they person I was there to see wasn't in yet; so they wanted to give me
something to do rather then wait around. It wasn't long till the chat began and
I wasn't sure what to expect. Whenever the words work experience or internship
is mentioned I get all anxious. But in this instance it wasn't and I felt
really relaxed. So long story short I would say I'm a contributor and have been
given a street style project to do. Initially I was really excited but when I
realised I would have to talk to complete strangers, I kinda went in to O M G
REALLY mode which happens a lot. It means I pop in to HQ 2 or 3 times a week to
work on it and in the meantime I go looking for stylish people. So if you see
me come and say hi and I might even take your photo. While I was there I helped
out with a couple of their features which was really fun; but now my clicky
wrist REALLY hurts. I started taking photos yesterday in town which was really
nerve racking; but thankfully I saw a colleague of mine and convinced her to
let me take her photo. Overall I definitely think this is going to be an
interesting project.
To the outfit...
For once I knew exactly what I was
going to wear. When I bought this lovely looking t-shirt at River Island
on Thursday; I knew I had to wear it especially with my red blazer. Now I
absolutely love this t-shirt and ever since I saw it on the River Island
website I knew I had to have it. It was £15 but I got money off (I took back a
necklace/student shop in); so I ended up getting it for £9.60 which to me is a
complete BARGAIN!! You know me I love my graphic t-shirts so this is perfect
for me. They do it now in white with a black logo which I think might have to
be mine. I didn't really accessorize this outfit apart from my new H&M
scarf. I know everyone is buying tartan scarves, but I kinda got hooked on the
trend and decided to hunt for one. I stumbled upon this one when I was browsing
the H&M website; but it was £7.99 and I thought it would be smaller then it
was. I decided to look at it in person but I never got round to it. So when I
looked back on the website when the sale started and saw it was £4, I knew it
was a no brainer and bought it immediately. I've worn it since it came (which
was Tuesday); and I really like it plus its sooooo soft!!
I'm a bit annoyed today as I've tried
to publish my haul video 3 times and each time my laptop keeps dying. I've
literally had enough off it so I'm going to definitely get a new one.
I'm going to try and upload my video
tomorrow and if it doesn't work I think I'll scream!!
Wish me luck!!
