I am captivated by the way in which Fashion is cyclical and how the Fashion Marketing Industry holds such a substantial influence over the styles of people, eras and cultures. For this reason I have chosen to do Fashion Marketing as a Degree. It fascinates me how unconsciously we are all victims of marketing new or modified fashion trends through our own individual street style.

The Pull It was gratifying to see how often friends and family cited characteristics that pull others towards me, most notably being humble and a role model because it is often hard to gauge your effect on others.

Throughout the season my younger “buddy” truly became my number one fan, and I knew that it was my responsibility for my actions and character to reciprocate her devotion to this relationship. As a result, I always strived to show her how much I care in whatever way possible.
