Internship with Animal!

I've been given time out of university to do work experience for a company as part of my degree, and I got in touch with Animal, and they've offered me work experience with the design team down in Poole!

Its gunna be sooo good. It's important to go for work experience somewhere you can relate too otherwise it could give you the wrong impression of the fashion industry.

I've been asked to create a blog relating to my experience, but I might just add a page to this blog so I can keep my thoughts and experiences together!

Men's Autumn/Winter 2010 snow jackets

(O'Neill winter 2010)

These prints are great! I saw the electric til snowboarding jacket in the O'Neill store and it even though it was at pretty much the back of the shop, it was one of the first things I saw!

Fresh, bold and almost streetwear like, this is the future for snowboarding jackets, we won't just be seeing these style jackets on the slopes and cliff edges but they'll be finding there ways onto the streets of London.

Bright colours on our streets are what we need on these gloomy winter days, enough of pastels and warm colours.

It's time to get out there and stand out.

Take some of these bad boys as a pointer.



Cooler Magazine !!

 Cooler is an alternative lifestyle haven, featuring the best of Surf, Snow, Street, Style, News & Interviews.

I subscribed for 6 issues and I absolutely love it.

It's so motivating and keeps me posted with the latest alternative trends and features indepth interviews with people of all backgrounds.

The most influencing article i found was in Issue 25 jun/jul 2010 '' Go Your Own Way''

The article consisted of interviews with successful business women, from designers of clothes and accessories to nail technitions and dance instructurs.

The  Lazy Oaf interview was the best.

Gemma Sheil the brainchild of the brand. Look'er up!
