Fashion School

I made it into an official fashion school in Prague (http://www.vosonspso.cz/).  I am so happy I made it, its like a dream come true the only sad part is I cannot go - mostly got to do with money.

The entry exam was a challenge comprised of three parts:
1. I had to hand in a minimum of 10 pieces of work done at home. I only applied to the school two weeks before the exam - I really didn't have much time.
Here's some of the stuff I handed in:







 
2. The first day of the exam, I had to draw and paint (a portrait, fantasy and fashion illustrations) - I wish I took pictures :(

3. The second day of the exam i.e. the final day, I had to sew, write an English language test and go for an interview. The sewing part was really cool - so like project runway.  The interview was a disaster after going in there I practically never wanted to even make it into the school. I was prejudged even before I started the interview.

Otherwise, it was a great experience. The best part was just knowing that a mostly self-taught girl has got what it takes to compete with people who have been studying fashion and art since secondary school. Maybe in the future, I will get a chance to go to fashion school but then again maybe fashion school is not for me and I will have to take the other route to fulfill my dream.

Winter Date Night

It's Date night! What do I Wear?! To quote Amy Farrah Fowler of The Big Bang Theory, “There are two things that say you have a boyfriend and he is real: matching costumes and sex tapes.“ Well, I won't dwell on the latter, but there is lots to be said about matching or complementary couple outfits. Recently, I got contacted by Bonobos .  A menswear clothing brand focused on delivering great fit and a fun approach to fashion. Bonobos love style and class!  They are running a  Winter Style Challenge to see what kind of outfits can accompany looks from their new line of suits. So if you got a date night planned. Look hot and stylish when you head out with your boyfriend by using these looks for inspiration.   SUIT No.1     THE LOOKS...
