Wow! What a week I've had. Firstly I want to say how happy I was to be given my first sponsor opportunity at the beginning of the year - I was just so excited, I can't even tell you! This is the first big step for my blog and it was such alot of fun to do, it also allowed me to explore different styles, create new outfits and really step out of my "fashion comfort zone" but for me, thats whats best about fashion; being creative and finding a different side of yourself.
I have to admit though I didn't have the best luck as a couple of days after receiving my parcel from the clothing company I tripped whilst adjusting my tripod when shooting one of the outfits and my camera unfortunately hit a curb causing the lens to get stuck inside of the camera. Due to that it's a compact camera it meant that I couldn't just buy another lens, oh no, this little accident was going to cost me £190 and I was advised that it would not be worth fixing. Now I haven't been blogging for long but a camera is a pretty important part of blogging and being an avid photographer, like I am, losing your camera is a pretty devastating thing and what made this particular week even more traumatising was that less than 48 hours later my phone flew out of my pocket and into a rather large amount of water... Yes, it was not a good week technology wise and was also a very expensive week too!
Thankfully now though, thanks to my boyfriend I am no longer camera-less and have been able to finish my six outfit shoots. And thanks to my parents I've got a phone, well at least for the time being as it is my step dads spare ;)
I am so, so thankful for having such supportive, caring and amazing people in my life every day, I am truly very lucky and I definitely wouldn't have been able to complete this sponsor without them.
So all in all after having a pretty bad week, it all turned out great in the end and its certainly a big step! I hope that my blog will bring me more opportunities like this in the future so I can explore and experiment with fashion even more.
Stay tuned for more on these outfits and speak soon xox
