Today was a sunny happy day. I finished my 'design intern' contract last Thursday at my job and today I started as a freelance designer there; which feels like a huge achievement especially as im still only an undergraduate! We all went out for lunch today to celebrate myself and Moniques new freelance positions and also for Jess' First Class Hons in Fashion that she (soon to be) will of graduated with! We went to Jamie's Italian in Birmingham and the food was AMAZING: I know Jamie's isn't posh but my version of eating out is Nandos and Pizza Express (the former only as a special occasion/eating out with richer friends). I got a piece of chicken with a really posh green leafy/stalky salad (there was definetely no iceberg lettuce in sight) and with trepidation I tried crab for the first time which was so nice! The desserts were amazing (Mine a strawberry and honeycomb pavlova) and the company was even better, I felt really lucky today to be able to work around such talented and lovely ladies; I definetely would recommend  a placement year for anyone currently thinking/looking at doing so as the people you'll meet and the experiences you'll have with broaden your horizons and help you grow as a person.
The Vans I wore today were the only thing wrong with an otherwise perfect day; there new, they killed my feet and there filthy from me wearing them brand new to a club, so if the pain wasn't enough looking down and seeing the dirt encrusted toes certainly was...
I also LOVE this cardigan- I've been after a duster coat from Topshop but haven't had £75.00 to spare so when I found this long thin 'cardigan' in Primark the other week I knew I had to have it ^.^
