Winter's Finally Arrived

What’s all this storm business in England… Me and my wardrobe were not ready for the cold weather and blustery winds!! So naturally I’ve recently been on the hunt for the perfect winter coat and here are my top picks.

Fashion Workieeee

Sorry I've been a bit quiet recently but works been taking up all my time!! So I thought I'd give you a little more of an insight into what I do.

As mentioned before in my blog I'm a Junior Merchandiser for Lauren Richards Ltd. As I've been there a few months now I'm getting more and more responsibilities for example I am now in charge of three accounts (Miss Selfridge, Tu Kids and George Men’s). Which basically means I monitor the process when the customer has chosen one of our designs until when it reaches the customers warehouse ready to go into store. In the past few weeks we’ve sold around 20,000 pieces across my accounts alone, so it has been pretty busy up in our MK office!! However now I’m just waiting on all the samples to come in from our factories in Hong Kong and China so I went down to our show rooms to help the design team set up for a very important meeting ready for first thing Monday morning. 

 

 (Above is the archive of scarves..... SOOOO many scarves)

There is a lot riding on this meeting, it determines whether or not we break into the USA…  Taking Lauren Richards international!! And been as we basically already cover most high street stores in the UK it only seems natural for that to be the company’s next move.  

 

(Above is a sneak peak into our showroom)

Anyway we did eventually finish it this afternoon, so fingers crossed our Sales team pulls it out the bag Monday morning!! 

That’s all for now

Outfit of the Dayyyy

Suede is coming back with a bang this season, it's everywhere and I can't help but fall in love with every item I see. It's quickly becoming my wardrobe staple this winter.

This Suede skirt is great, super versatile today I've just paired it with a simple white knit jumper but when it gets colder I can't wait to wear it with a cosy roll neck! Also I got these boots last winter from River Island and they have done with me a solid, they're dead comfy and make my legs look skinny... WINNER hahahah

Nail Evny

I love Essie, they are hands down my fave nail brand at the minute!! And these colours are so autumnal!! They're not a set just a few random shades I've collected over the past few weeks that happen to all match! Hahaha 

Thats it for now, just sharing my love for Essie really!

That's all for now, just thought this collection deserved some recognition!

Work work work

Hi lovelies! 

Not sure if any of you saw/ remember but a while back (August 4th to be exact) I wrote a blog post about the trials and tribulations of job hunting and gave some tips. Well the interview I was prepping for the day I wrote that I got!!! That's right you are now looking at the Junior Merchandiser at Lauren Richards :) :) :)

Basically Lauren Richards is an accessory design house that supplies to a few of the major highstreet stores such as Miss Selfridge, Next and New Look to name a few! I'm absolutely loving working there, I feel very grown up and professional! Bascially my role is to make sure everything is organised and cooridinate with the design team, the sales team, the factories and the companies to make sure everything runs smoothly! Just the other day I was up at George at Asda's Head Office discussing the designs for Autumn winter '16 which was pretty exciting!!!

So yeah this is just a quick post to show a one of the outfits I strutted round the office in and to encourage you all to perservere with the job hunt, becasue even if it looks bleak right now something will come along eventually! And follow my top tips from my other post, it worked for me hahah

70's Vibes

Hi chickas, 

Firstly I am incredibly jealous of everyone at Paris Fashion Week, I have literally streamed all of the shows!!! Anyway in an attempt to cheer myself up about the fact I wasn't waltzing down the Chans De Lise I decided to get out the house and take a few snaps for my blog! 

I'm loving all the 70's vibes that are around at the minute! I can't wait to get some flares definitely up there on my wishlist!! But in the meantime I'm loving this Next Burberry print mini skirt!! Also at the minute the weather is just about still mild enough to only wear my knee highs (which by the way are literally becoming my staple boots for AW15) 

Quick note the necklace I'm wearing I bought on Depop (my depop: @frankie657) off @hanarut and it was hand made to measure, so cute! I chose the length and the colour of the stone, and I'm so happy with how it turned out!! So go check them out and drop me a mention ;)

Also when it got a little chilly outside it looked equally as cute with this cheap and cheerful grey jumper from the one and only primarni!! 

Let me know what you think,
