Last one for a while

This will be my last post for a long time, as I am flying out to Pakistan for a month tomorrow. I will have access to the internet but most likely won't be active as there is only so much I can update about there whilst remaining relevant. In my absence, I will be having editorials published in both Turn magazine and XO magazine, as well as one or two more upon my return in August. I expect I'll be shooting pretty soon after landing so watch this space nearer the time for more updates on exploding suitcases and mad adventures on location.

My biggest excitement for August is the four week internship I have managed to secure at Fabulous magazine, beginning in the middle. I have been dying for work experience there ever since attending Pepperhaus's 'So you want to work in fashion?' event at London College of Fashion where the fashion co-ordinator was a guest speaker. This was half a year ago, and I'm glad my perseverance with applications in that period paid off. I'm looking forward to going on mad shopping trips in the two weeks between my arrival in London and the start of the placement, as I will definitely need some new attire to fit into the fashion department. My philosophy is that you cannot be the part without looking the part, and as shallow as it is, I feel a million times more confident and bubbly with an amazing outfit on.

Until August it is; I leave you with the cover image of soon-to-be-released summer issue of XO magazine. Photography by Faye Sampson, styling by myself.
