Embracing my inner stylist

After recently modelling in a local student magazine in Sunderland I joined the DN magazine team. Doing fashion journalism I need as much practise as possible to improve my writing skills. I was appointed a features writer but was later asked if I wanted to help at fashion shoots and I am now fashion editor. Which I am thrilled about!

For the most recent issue of DN magazine, I had the job of finding a model and coming on set to help style it. We were on a short time scale and I had to find a model within an hour, luckily I knew a few ladies who would love to be part of this. After 20 minutes I managed to find the perfect girl. 

The shoot was located at a vintage store in Seaburn in the North East and it was beautiful, the clothes, the layout of the store I was in love. Even though there was a rush to find 6 outfits in a short amount of time I found it relatively easy and it made me realise even more that that is what I want to do for a career. I love styling. 

Here is the end result of the photoshoot, photos brilliant taken and edited by Lee Williams, and a short bit of writing I did along with it. 




Walking into Corner 93 you think you have stepped back in time. It is a pre-loved clothing boutique, based in Seaburn. They only buy and sell designer, best on the British High Street and Vintage treasures from old troves.
Once you enter you will understand why they call the clothes treasures. I loved the clothes that much I had to purchase a fur coat. “We truly do love our fashion and have a passion for seeing clothes being re-loved.” This is their statement which you have to admire.
