Internship Diary #5

As Fashion Week is fast approaching (only one more week!!) things are starting to heat up here in NYC. From next Monday on, I will be doing 3 full-time internships -with Foundfuture Press & Sales, with an NYC Stylist & of course, with Whitney Port. Today I have a day off & as you can imagine, I am cherishing it immensely because these type of days are going to become extremely scarce for the next few weeks. I am going to have LOTS to blog about & show you -but first, let me give you a little update on what I’ve been getting upto at Foundfuture…

Last week, my boss at the internship, Shannon, told me that we had to go meet a designer about 4 blocks away to pick up a piece for her display in the showroom. It was one of those really hot & sticky days in NYC, so I wasn’t over the moon about the idea of having to face the heat! But of course, I didn’t complain & agreed to come along. After about 5/10 minutes of walking, we didn’t find the designer but instead……a NAIL SALON. It was all a trick to surprise me with a manicure & pedicure in a Salon in Soho. I honestly don’t think I could ask for a better job & boss!

For those of you who follow my Facebook Page, you will know that I recently modeled for a SS13 Lookbook for one of our clients, Lambillotte. We shot 15 looks over the space of 2 days, so it was a lot of work but also a lot of fun! The Lookbook should be printed in the next few weeks, so as soon as it’s ready I’ll post a link.

On Monday, Sara (The Press Director) & I had a meeting with the accessories editor at W Magazine, so we went to their main NYC office to show 3 of our clients’ collections. It was such an amazing experience to be able to sit in on this type of meeting & I’m so grateful that this internship has provided me with such experiences. Everything that I’m wearing is from Lambillotte & I love how clean-cut the whole outfit is.

As I mentioned, it’s about to get very busy indeed -so keep your eyes peeled for upcoming posts about what I get up to during Fashion Week. I’m so excited for what lays ahead!

Hope you’re having a good week :)

Stylishly yours,

What a nice surpise, you’ve made me want to go to NYC even more with all of these posts! I have no doubt that you will end making the big move some day!
