My new fave fashion site

Just stumbled upon one of those rare fashion sites where I wanted to read every single article. From the story about how Chinese style is influencing fashion to the article about how a fashion consultant to change your look, I was hooked. The additional articles about how real fashionistas wear vintage shoes, fashion in the ancient times and the future of New York Fashion Week had me line and sinker too!

Plus, there's a whole section on fashion magazines, everything you needed to know about the leading fashion publications such as Vogue, Galmour, Vanity Fair and Harper's Bazaar. Info includes who each magazine is published by, the date it was launched, frequently covered topics and a gallery of some of the most notable covers. Definitely worth checking out!

Loving my professional photography course!

Over the past few weeks I've purchased my new SLR camera and enrolled in professional photography evening classes at college! I've always had a love of great photography and now feel ready to take the next step and turn my passion for beautiful images into something slightly more profitable.

Sharing my photography for the rest of the class to critique was a little daunting but very reassuring to hear their positive feedback. Plus, my tutor thinks that I could look into becoming a fashion photographer...my dream job! Looking at entering a competition to photograph at London Fashion Week, just need to put together a selection of images in the next week or so for my competition entry...best get to work!

The whole thing feels very new and exciting so this blog is soon to be filled with fantastic imagery and stories of my new photography adventures! In the meantime, here's a snapshot I took at the weekend.
