I haven’t written on this blog for almost three years.
Lala Simba was a coping mechanism when my best friend and I decided to end a mini business venture we were on, a business venture we had thrown so much into that when it ended we were left jobless and hopeless. If you’ve ever felt so passionate about something you truly believe in,.. you’ll understand.
Sooner than I had imagined I got a job in fashion buying. I wasn’t 100% sure this is what I wanted todo but i was in desperate need of ‘finding my thing’ something I was good at and feeling worth something again. Surprised at my new found passion and how I enjoyed everyday in that job (bar the horrendous salary) I spent 9 moths there before I moved to BoohooMAN - Younger fashion with more creativity.
Boohoo has been the making of me, it’s an intense job and you need to really be in it to win it...
I was determined not to stay a junior member of staff for long, therefore I moved out of home and joined the busy life of Manchester to ensure I could throw everything I have into my job. Nearly two years later, a promotion and a whole load of late nights, excel sheets and tears (blood sweat and tears would be slightly dramatic) I’m starting to feel at peace with myself, I got this.
I’ve caught up to where I wanted to be, my career is in full swing and I’m proud to say I actually feel good at what I do. I think it’s time to throw this blog back into the mix - another plate to spin. A hobbie about what I do best. Talk too much, shop too much, eat too much and internet too much?!?
Let’s go 2018 - Please be better than 17!
