| Our tour by one of the merchandisers at Saks 5th Ave... |
For two days this week, I attended a fab fashion workshop with Berkeley College. The first day we all headed into the city and went to NES Jewelry and learned about the showroom and marketing. It was pure bliss with accessories everywhere! Next up was One Jeanswear Group that has leading brands that covers all types of fashion demographics. Many of the different workers spoke about what they specifically do and the daily roles they play in the industry. We even had the honor to listen to the CEO himself!
The second day was a blast and we spent it at Saks 5th Ave (which has always been one of my favorite places). Our fantastic tour guide, John, lead us through all 10 floors of the store and explained the reasoning for the store arrangement, the history, and some of their merchandising techniques.

Here is a little sneak peak of my last photoshoot where I decided to embrace my inner spirit of being a 90s baby. I rocked a high hairstyle and a comfy vintage Calvin Klein shift dress. I also found this vintage bag while thrifting with my mom to give the final touch. Have a great weekend beauties!
Sorry I have been a little M.I.A. these past days. I have a totally acceptable reason though! I have been studying precollege fashion journalism at F.I.T. for the past few days. I can't even explain the amount of things I have been studying and learning.
I went to the store for an interview and got to chat with a few of the other girls. Everyone had the same love for fashion and we had so much in common! For the interview we had to create a fashion project that showcases what we have to offer for the board. I decided to use the blog since it's a full reflection of myself and everything I love. The interview itself was great and I was asked different questions about my community service and reasons why being on the board would be beneficial to me.
Sophia grew up as a totally rad girl that grew up not fitting in (I'm sure many of us know that story!). She didn't bother with college and went from job to job, even stealing at some points. One day she created an eBay store that she named Nasty Gal. Eventually she ended up getting kicked off the site and she made her own online shop. Lets just say that the rest is history and Sophia has taken the fashion world by storm.
