I started my new job at Paul Smith on Monday! It's really good, the people are all so lovely, very friendly, and it's been fantastic for my Japanese already. I work from 12 until 8.30pm, so it's quite a long time but it does pass very quickly, as I seem to spend most of my time either chatting to the girls about clothes and makeup, to the boys about British music, or to customers about the clothes and British fashion! On tuesday night they all kindly took me out for a welcome party, we went to an izakaya and had loads of great food and cocktails, so nice!
Tuesday was also a very important day. Let me set the scene.
Lanvin and H&M have done a collaboration. I really hope you all know what I'm talking about, if not, have a look at the pieces here.
So 10am, Jerome and I met up at Harajuku station and headed down to the H&M store, only to find that you were given allotted times on a wristband!! It's so they could only have 30 people in at a time, and each time slot was 10 mins. Ours was 12.15 to 12.25, but obviously I started work at 12, so bit of a problem. Jerome however, was brilliant, and whilst I went into Paul Smith, she trotted off back to H&M, elbows out, and grabbed The Dress. This dress I had been talking about for weeks, it's amazing. Perfect colour, almost the Selfridges pantone, raw edges, exposed black zip, big black waistband, perfectly comfy yet looks like it shouldn't be.... and surprisingly a lot of fabric! Anyway, here's the pics, see what you think! I think the expression on my face says it all......
It's the homestay trip this weekend as well, had the orientation tonight and a meal with the others going, looks like it's going to be good!!
