Anyway, on to the post. I took some photos from my day and here is my day:
1. Lets begin - Arrived, woke up fully, read my emails and got briefed on what needed to be done for the day.
How adorable is my Rapunzel background? |
2. Get to work! - Today I was creating Instagram style outfit shots of the outfits used in the photoshoots for the brand, I had a rail of stuff but most of it was not there so I had to run round the office hunting for the correct samples! Good thing I wasn't wearing heels today..
Running round finding the right departments |
Good thing i've got skinny wrists to hold loads of clothes with |
Hunting through beautiful clothes for outfits |
3. Styling! - Next it was picking suitable accessories for the outfits, I love this. The press room has a shoe cupboard and it's amazing just walking up and down it with it's hundreds of pairs of shoes.

My box of stuff to shoot outside |
My set up with my box to stand on |
5. Edit - When I got all the shots I liked I edited them on my Instagram app and actually really liked them all, definitely want to do more of these style outfit shots for my blog in the future.
Then it was lunch time!
Went for a wander down Oxford Street and into New Look, whoops.
Cheeky OOTD in the changing room, CHEEKAYY |
My beautiful new blanket cardigan (will do a haul post) |
Then I had to research and design a trend poster for the brand to communicate the new brands on which will be sent to the whole business, so it would be stuck up around the office, stuck up in all the back of house in every single store and just generally used as a whole. I've made, I think about 3 of these posters for the business in my time here, work experience and employed, I actually just did the last trend poster for them. I love making posters and moodboards, was always my fav thing to do at uni (other than sleep and get drunk), but I'm only really a fan of making them digitally, can't be dealing with fiddly cutting and glue on my hands.
Then I was asked to help choose some outfits and accessories for a shoot downstairs and help pack the items as well. Doing things like this makes me feel like a stylist, love it. I've been in stylist meetings, blogged about it here and being a freelance stylist looks like so much fun, what a cracking job.
Overall my day consisted of Instagrammin' outfits, making trend posters, running quick errands for people e.g. finding samples around the office in different departments, printing/copying and all sorts, then helping pack and style for a shoot. No day is ever the same, and I love all the jobs and tasks I get given. I have responsibilities, such as making effective trend posters, selecting and communicating what the mannequins in all the windows are wearing every week and others, and it definitely makes me excited to have these responsibilities. I love my job!
Thanks for reading! If you liked this sort of post let me know and i'll try and do some more similar!
