LFW #DAY1 and My Interning with Bora Aksu AW 13!

MY EXPERIENCE AT LONDON FASHION WEEK 2013

It's Valentines Day and I took trip out of Singleville
by grabbing my finest clobber and dragging myself all the way down to London to FINAAAALLLY work with famous Turkish designer, Bora Aksu.

With a little guidance from my good friend Jessica (trying my best to tube dodge) I was en'route to the biggest event of the year,
Somerset House!


After a quick warm brew to calm the nerves at the local Cafe Nero I approached my destination!
I IMMEDIATLY FELT LIKE I WAS FINALLY AT HOME WITH MYSELF!

What a beautiful day!
And yet so many wonderful individuals oozing with originality and interesting collaborations... I couldn't take my eyes off everyone...
The essence of a tight family of budding Fashionista's coming together from different areas of the world to simply feast their eyes on new inspirations and growing designers
- It was truely FANTASTIC!

 

I was a little early to begin my task for the day, so I took the opportunity to sit back, people watch and do a spot of Networking (always make time to Network readers).
You'd be SURPRISED at the amount of people actually wanting to have a chat and get to understand you as an individual! 
Slight shock to the system ladies...

I was interviewed by various photographers, bloggers and also LONDON| TIME OUT|.
Whilst asking to take a few few images on my trusty Canon, you'd be quite surprised at how many people turned round and asked to take yours!?


"Here's a little taster on what the atmosphere was like during day 1 at Somerset House..."








Whilst wandering indoors and nosy'ing at the exhibitions at hand,
I recognized a few London based bloggers such as 
@Londonlipsgloss and vice-versa!


...And a few lovely ladies asked if I was also a blogger?!,
  whilst approaching towards the exit, and urged to keep in touch!
-what a lovely LOVELY day 1 of LFW!-

Here we have some of MY best dressed features at STYLISH Somerset that eve...

     

     

AND we have MORE on-trend victims.
So much individuality oozed' the area that my poor Canon just couldn't cope!
-But you get the idea my lovely's.

      

GUYS. 
I EVEN GOT TO SEE QUITE A FEW MEMBERS OF MY FAVE 
PROGRAM- "MADE IN CHELSEA"...
Arggggggggggh!- yes I just screamed, yes I did that on the day.





And NOT forgetting Pandamonia's grand entrance,
The outrageous of the lot!


And last but not least myself and the other interns also got up close and 
personal with the man himself, Bora Aksu...


The day couldn't have gone any better!
I met new lovely interns, networked, gained experience in work and just took on board an amazing opportunity to visit the biggest event of the year...
I would deffo volunteer again!

-What a fantastic icing to a creative year so far!-
