Today I had my very first critique!!!! Oh my it was scary! I didnt know what to expect, however, it turned out ok! They actually liked it :D I felt that i did ok in the presentaion and it went ok! I tried really hard with my styling, and although i wasnt spot on, they still noticed that i had tried which i was really happy with! It is now such a load of my mind....soooo happy! Altogether this has been a successful project...not only has it taught me a lot about Fashion and the indusrty it has also taught me a lot about myself and my skills within the subject and coping under pressure! I have learnt to manage my time a little better and making that little bit more effort really does pay off! Although it has been fun, challenging and cery rewarding....I am definatly a promotion girl!!!! BRING ON SECOND YEARRRR!!!! wooooooooooo :D:D:D

With my future in mind....
http://www.monsoon.co.uk/
Over the Easter holidays I was determined to find a job working in Fashion retail! I have had a job for nearly 3 years at Staples...and although this was good at teaching me how to communicate with customers etc, it does not fill the required experience I need to succeed in my future career!
After a lot of hard work working on my CV and cover letters, I am very happy, excited, over the moon to say I now work for Monsoon! wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!! :D Beautiful clothes!

Our veryyyyyy last Buying and Merchandising session! I had completed my assignment by this time because i had been working on it a lot throughout the term and i felt i needed to hand it in before i started doubting what i was writing and the toile review was creeping up and i just felt i had too much on top of me! Handed it in today....what a weight of my shoulders! now just to focus on the toile!
18.03.10
Worsttttttttttttt day yet! Oh my days! everything was going wrong! everything i touched fell apart and every bit of work i did on my toile had to be done again! I got a lot of practise for redoing things but this day was a real struggle!
22.03.10
My toile reveiew. I was one of the first to show my outfit and i was scared of the feedback! It went ok though and they were happy with what i had done as well as me liking my outfit. We spoke about it and they shared some very good suggestions and i noted everyone and will defiantly consider using them within my final garment!
