And so it begins.....

For around a year now I have been determined to set up a blog but every time I sit down to write something occurs to me; what do I have to say that other people would want to read? Yes I am your typical self deprecating, optimistic, easy going Brit, the thing is I want to be a fashion journalist. 

Let’s put it this way, when sorting out a monthly budget most people don’t include a magazine allowance and my boyfriend knows every Tuesday as ‘Look Magazine Day.’ It is fair to say that I am obsessed with writing and my favourite topic is fashion. Having studied journalism at university I now know the first rule of writing articles – find the people angle, so why should my blog be any different? (I owe it to my lecturers really!)

So I would love it if you would follow me on my journey up the ranks to working at a national fashion magazine, well that is the dream after all. I know you must wonder how I am so sure that it will happen for me; there are thousands of girls out there desperate to work at their favourite fashion magazine but as my mum will vouch for, I am as determined as a wasp trying to get out of a window, I’m not afraid to work my way up and I am not afraid of hard graft. To get where I want to be I will literally write about anything which so far has included; the lovely topic of sewage works, school fetes and grass cutting to name but a few.

What will you get from reading my blog because at the end of the day essentially I am selling my personality and interests to you, the reader? Fashion is my main passion; however cliche it sounds but music, beauty and travel are topics close to my heart as well. The main focus will be my quest to land that dream job, so expect tips and advice from internships and jobs that I do. As well as all this I will include anything that inspires me and maybe a few cheeky snaps of my outfits along the way. Oh and seriously how long does it take to find a blog name that hasn't been picked already!
