The Intern Chronicles: Life is definitely good


I've always imagined that I would one day intern at some fashion house or under an editor of some renowned fashion magazine. I don't think I would want a Devil Wears Prada kind of moment but I think that's what it would amount to. 


Coffee runs when I don't even like coffee. A to-do list longer than my arm. Fighting with someone over a New York City cab or taking a packed train to run across the city for a small and minute errand that probably wouldn't make a difference whatsoever.

I think I'll leave the dramatics to Anne Hathaway's character in the movie and current summer interns in New York City. 

Thankfully, I've found a great internship that will not only better me professionally but also teach me lessons and connect with someone who has a wonderful and thriving fashion blog called Let's Talk Twenties. She's amazing!

I had the opportunity this past week to attend the fun and exciting Fall/Winter Collection preview in the city for the brand Life is good to get an idea of what it's like to attend these types of events and put my Public Relations duties to work. 

The très cool showroom entrance 

Loves these bands and definitely cuter than those old school silly bandz (Remember those?)


These mini grilled cheeses with some magical red paste on top were addictive and were impossible to eat gracefully.
One huge bite is how I do. 

Very let's go on a road trip and try to make it big somewhere

The collection embraces all of the inspiring and positive messages the brand is known for and the spacious showroom definitely radiated the vibes from the cool, comfy, and stylish collection.

The collection is very much inspired by the idea of gratitude and I am definitely grateful for being given the opportunity to attend an event like this for the first time. 

Life is definitely good.

Thoughts of an Aspiring Fashionista



Shoes: JustFab

I don't know if it was the countless hours of watching Carrie Bradshaw grace the streets of New York City in her Manolos or flipping through editorials in fashion magazines in high school but somewhere along the way, I dreamt about the idea of working in fashion. You should always know what you're passionate about. Thus, I cannot deny my love of shoes, shopping, and dressing up without needing an excuse to do so. 

As my college career progresses, interning is becoming an important task to accomplish before graduation. Lately, I find myself sending countless resumés and emails in hopes of getting an interview from some of the most prestigious fashion houses and companies in the city. 

I have recently been given the opportunity to interview for a popular and upcoming blog as a Public Relations intern. You would expect for me to worry about the interview process or questions but instead my first thought was: 
What on earth am I going to wear?!

After much deliberation, I styled a professional and functional outfit that not only expresses my own personal style, but also encompasses the bright, vibrant aura of this upcoming summer. 

Dress: Cynthia Rowley
Cardigan: Forever 21
Arm Candy: Michael Kors Watch in Rose Gold,
Alex and Ani Bangle in Rafaelian Gold 

As a business major and a daughter of two entrepreneurs, it's only natural to aspire to have my own business. Ultimately, I want an empire. Not the Queen Elizabeth II kind, more like the Lauren Conrad or Kimora Lee Simmons kind (although I wouldn't mind being related to the fabulous Kate Middleton).  


Do you think it's far-fetched? It definitely is. 
Will it be hard and a lot of work? Of course. 
Do you think that will stop me? Not one bit.
