Outfit | Butterflies

 

 

Just a quick post of  an outfit wore a couple of days ago to meet my mum after she finished work.
The top is from Primark a couple of years ago and this cute little skirt is a recent belated birthday gift from my favourite person. 

Also I'm (once again) making a few changes on the ol' blog so things may look a bit odd at times.

So What Comes Next

So that's it. After handing in my final piece of university work ever at the end May, my 3-year degree officially ended on Wednesday 16th July when I graduated from university with a 2.1 BA Hons in Film Studies. So what comes next?

Like many students fresh out of university I don't have my ideal job all set up, ready and waiting for me, but I'm not letting it get me down as I'm still not completely sure of what career path I am going to take.
Over the past three years my degree made me realize that the practical side of film is where I am most comfortable and where I feel I work best.

Ideally during my time at university I would loved to have done production work outside of my normal university work; but I found it difficult to manage and even harder in third year when I started working part-time in a department store, although I did manage to get a couple of small jobs in.
So what comes next?

Ideally I would like to be a production manager, 1st AD or 2nd AD, but I would also like to do a something within fashion, so I think the best way to describe it until I find that job is something media based. I feel the next step for me is to get some more experience in things such as management and event organizing; and to assist with this I managed to get myself a 3-month work experience as an Arts Project Assistant, although this has yet to start.

But I'll stop before this post gets way to wordy. Have any of you graduated from University? If so what are your plans?

Outfit | Flowers in Paris

Cami, H&M - £9.99 | Silk Pencil Skirt, Mint Velvet -£19.75 | Wedges, Parmar - £10
I wore this outfit to my friends 21st birthday party. This top is actually a size 14, normally I'd wear an 8 or 10 but I accidentally picked this size up instead and when I finally bought the 10 it was really across my chest so I ended up sticking with the 14.

As soon as I saw this skirt at work I knew I had to have it, it is a bit awkward to walk in when the zip is all the way down so I've opened it up a bit. I had a bit of a struggle with it when I tried to fit it in with the rest of my uniform as I thought they were just too long or they just didn't look right. I have a couple of work tops that I think will work well with it so I'm just going to give it a try and see how it turns out.
