This may come as a-not -so- very- surprising surprise to you my lovely readers...I'm a fashion addict.
Have been ever since I received one of those brilliant,magical (Okay so the magic has somewhat disappeared now...it was simply tracing paper),fashion wheels for my fifth birthday (my dear mums attempt to prevent me from ripping up her fashion catalogues: cutting out my favourite items to 'dress' up my paper dolls!) after my first fashion wheel scribbles.I made the decision right there right then (amongst my vague design tracings)that when I grow up I'd become a fashion girlie...excuse the vagueness,come on I was five!Fast forward to right now,and I'm a pretty good (*trumpets-yes I will blow my own thanks very much) fashion retail assistant.Alright so considering my fashion degree,technically it's a step backwards and down the career ladder...blame bad timing.Graduating as the recession began to take it's toll.However what are career ladders?I detest that term and whoever thought it up.Truth is I'm not just a poor victim of the recession or higher education.Higher education failed to provide me with an realistic and sharp insight into the fast and fierce fashion retail business.My experience at the forefront of Peacocks has and still is (at times) a positive learning curb, with my ultimate goal being to work my way up to the dizzy heights of Peacocks head office.Until then I love my role as fashion sales advisor.Hello I get to merchandise and drool over beauts like the items above.
Not bad,not bad at all.I'm never content with with just serving our stylish customers (they really are quite style savy 'em Peacocks girls...and boys!) I enjoy being apart of their shopping experience,and expanding their minds beyond our standard VM displays.Today I helped out a student,who was merely considering to pick up a Pearl Lowe star dress,she was hesitating a little.Because she lives in leggings and vintage/thrift blouses i.e laid back, no fuss yet kooky kinda girl. Above is the look I created and demonstrated to her,proving the Pearl Lowe collection can be very versatile.I've dressed down the elegant part of this pretty star print dress,by teaming it with nice easy brogue flats,and casual over the shoulder satchel bag.Give this idea/look a whirl my pretty peacocks.My cool and kooky student customer did she hearts her new buys!Obvs.
