You’d be forgiven for thinking that all I
think about is food – this is partly true, but I equally spend a lot of
time thinking about interior design and fashion. Recently I interned at
mydeco.com and lately I’ve been tinkering around in The Times fashion cupboard
as one of their interns (unpaid - very controversial at the moment,
no comment - I digress), and aside from all the packing, unpacking, handling
demanding PR's who 'need that $10,000 Oscar de la Renta dress (currently
slumped on the fashion cupboard floor) back in NY NOW' and undignified sorting
out of their look book cupboards - I have been knee deep in some very beautiful
clothes. The fashion cupboard (or drawer if you compare its teeny tiny size to
the enormous grandeur of The News International offices) is far from stylish
with boxes, paper, plastic hangers peppered everywhere but among all the debris
is a trove of accessories and buckets of the latest make-up stored in organised
chaos.
Naturalmente, my main dilemma was what to
wear on my first day (and second and third and...) and I decided to play it
safe with a new Whistles double leopard print blouse (I am poor, honestly)
tucked into my trusty H&M navy trousers (£20 – see?!) and my Salvatore
Ferragamo black pumps (which I got off Ebay and pinch like a crab but I love
them), all finished with my gold charm bracelet and gold Accessorize chunky
necklace. This fashion malarky is a bit too, well, fashion, for my
liking but it was fun while it lasted - back to interior design and cooking for
me!
