Tayloring

Well I suppose am getting good at blogging after 3 years. I have been scratching my head for year and years to find a good way to get into fashion; you would say that studying a degree on fashion would be the most intelligent thing to do, but you see, am already 25, dont want to spend 4 years in uni, don t have the money, dont have the time. So here I am the other day, thinking how the hell can I get any near a pattern and a piece of scissors...And then it clicked in my mind. The tailor round the corner from were I work...See, the thing is that sometimes my thinking is not really flexible, and I either think black or white, and I think that if am on this road, then I ll stay there forever, until I found a turning on the left/right...so, I started thinking about working in a fashion house, without being paid for a couple of hours so to add to my cv and see if I really want to do it, ..someone at work gave me the contact number for a well known fashion house here in London, to apply to work assisting the production manager. Spoke for 30 seconds ( the audiences with the Pope are longer, far out!) and agreed to forward the cv to the woman. Well, she did not get back to me. But I was so up for doing some working experience that well "me quede con las ganas" ( don t ask me to translate!) So I started thinking were could I go were were...and then I thought "precious" that boutique, women s wear,...so good yeah I could ask there...but then I realised they did not make any clothes then, so I turned back and saw the tailor from the corner. I go past there every day and I just admire the shirts and the poshness of the place! love it. So thought...well already got a no...lets go for the yes. So I went. The night before I chose nice clothes to wear, to make a nice entrance, and it worked. Thought they would look me from top to toe, and say "Sorry we don t do this here, the door is there" but they were actually so nice,...So I starting on monday until wednesday and I will see how it goes. Hope good!!
Ok going to sleep ....byee
