About me
I completed a fashion degree and have always used fashion to express myself, so having a career in the fashion industry has always been a goal of mine. In my own time I like to work on my art skills/fashion concepts by doing my own drawings in a sketchbook and creating different ideas and outifts. I also enjoy browsing magazines and Pinterest at different fashion styles and keeping up with current trends in fashion. I have an artistic flair which I enjoy blending to my own fashion sense and others. I have a passion for sewing and for altering clothes also.
