PUBLISHED PORTFOLIO!

---

 

From previous blogs I’ve mentioned my fashion portfolio, including all my work from my first year at Uni, and as from about an hour ago, it’s been published on issuu! I actually can’t believe it’s been finished and published, very weird and oddly satisfying knowing that people can just browse and admire your work who you don’t even know, but that’s the fun of it! So if you’re interested I’ll leave a link below so you can check it out, would be much appreciated as a lot of time and hard work as gone into this! Now let’s hope for a good grade!

The End Is Near!

---

As you may know from previous blogs I’ve been creating a portfolio combining all my work from the first year at Uni, and thankfully after weeks of battling Photoshop I’ve almost finished! So this blog is just a little update of my progress from the Denim + Unit portfolio pages and the creative journey it’s taken me on. In all honestly it’s been a rough ride doing this portfolio pages, as it’s really opened up my eyes to the fact we’ll be using this to show future employers, so I’ve put in a lot of time and hard work to make them a high standard, and hopefully you think so to!

At the end of this week I’ll be publishing my portfolio on issuu, and writing a blog as to where you can find it, so make sure you don’t miss out!

Three Weeks To Go.

---

---

So in three weeks, just three weeks I will have completed my first year at Uni. I can honestly not believe how fast that time has flown by! It feels like only yesterday I was driving down to Bournemouth ready to start my new life and adventure, and now my first year is nearly up!

This only means one thing now though, these three weeks are going to be intense and madness will strike! I always try and tell myself not to get stressed and save it for 2nd and 3rd year as that’s when it’ll really matter.

So I just thought I’d give you a little update on what I still need to do for this project I’ve been explaining.

– Finish 3 projects worth of portfolio pages (half almost complete)

– Finish writing my CV (struggling as I HATE writing about myself)

– Keep posting on my blog at least every week (trying my hardest to do so!)

– Upload my portfolio onto a website

Actually writing that down wasn’t as scary as I thought it was going to be! Just wish me luck!

It’s A BIG FASHION World.

.

---

The Fashion Industry is unquestionably massive! and to get noticed is extremely difficult, you have to have the right skills and correct mindset. Something which I’m improving on whilst being at University.

Thankfully in our project we’re currently studying (alongside writing our CV) we are collating together all our first year work and creating a portfolio from this. This is actually quite bizarre, thinking your making this portfolio to show future employers. Or even if you are applying for placements over the summer, showing it to whoever you are applying for. Very daunting, as it’s a huge step into the fashion industry and a big eye opener to step up your game and get noticed.

The images I have attached are what I am currently working on, I have never publicly displayed my work as the concept behind it really freaks me out, and have never had the confidence to do so. But from now on I need a confident mind and no negativity! Something in which appeared in my last blog! So I hope by posting these images helps my confidence and makes me get noticed!.
