My final week at LOOK!





This week went SO quick once again! It's already Sunday and I'm wondering where this past month has gone?! 

I had such a lovely month with the girls at LOOK and I really do hope we stay in touch! This week we mainly gutted the WHOLE cupboard ready for the new interns on Monday (which happens to be one of my really good friends Beth!) and now the cupboard is absolutely spotless! 

After a fabulous week I landed back home and went out for my best friends 20th birthday. It was so nice catching up with everyone! Now I've got one month left at home before I jet off to NYC for four months to study at the Fashion Institute of Technology!

Week three at LOOK!





It's scaring me how fast my time at LOOK is going!! This summer is going far too fast! Before I know it I will be living in the Big Apple for four months..ahh!

On Monday and Tuesday I was assisting Chloe on the main fashion 'Hawaiian' shoot! It was so nerve wracking but I loved every single minute of it! 

It started by packing all the outfits and accessories away in cases and getting them delivered to the studio - which could be seen as the easy part! The next day was the biggest challenge! Trying to find the studio was a mission in its self. After trailing round construction sights I eventually found it and arrived 45 minutes early which meant I had time to settle down and unpack all the outfits onto the rail before steaming. 

After everyone arrived, the photographer, hair and make up artists, the model and Chloe, we could begin shooting! I was in awe watching how the bare studio was transformed and especially seeing the hair and make up artists work their magic on Andy our stunning model.

My jobs included steaming each outfit, dressing Andy and just generally being on hand to help with anything that I was needed for! It went by super fast but I was definitely ready for my bed when the shoot wrapped, especially after the mammoth journey back home!

The rest of the week was pretty similar to the first two. Me and the girls spent the week organising the cupboard and making sure all the returns were being sent back before getting lost in the jungle that we call a fashion cupboard! 

There were so many shoots going on this week so it was pretty manic! Although I didn't mind this as I was getting excited to go home to see all my friends and family while on a day out to York Races! It was such a funny day but I can't wait for bed tonight ahead of my first day of my last week at LOOK!

Week two at LOOK!


This week has gone SO fast! 

I was doing pretty much the same kind of jobs as last week but I'm still loving it! Chloe asked me to assist her on her main fashion 'Hawaiian' shoot next Tuesday which is soo exciting! 

It will be my first time assisting on a shoot so it will be pretty nerve wracking but exciting all at the same time. It will be so interesting to see how my favourite photo shoots are put together and I'll hopefully learn some tips for when I'm doing shoots in NYC and back at Nottingham Trent! 

My mum, dad and some family friends came down this weekend as well. My dad and Chris went to see Monty Python on Friday night so me, my mum and Lisa have a lovely evening in Covent Garden sipping on cocktails and prosecco until they found us after the show! 

Saturday was another brilliant day, even though the weather wasn't that great! We wandered around for a bit and then met up with another family friend before going to see Jersey Boys which is SUCH a good show! I went in slightly skeptical about it all but I came out a complete Frankie Valli fan - not what I expected to happen! 

The weekend has flown by and now it's time for the week to begin again! As much as I'm loving my time in London and at LOOK I am so excited to get home and see my family and friends before I jet off to New York for four months! Come at me NYC!
