From what I remember, last week was a busy one. I've finally gone back to my job at Topshop but I have been moved down to Topman, where I am now the new Sunday Supervisor. For all that didn't know, I took 4 months leave to go and work in London(but I came home earlier than expected as the job didn't work out, lets just say we weren't on the same wavelength).
On Thursday evening I attended the launch of the new COS concession in Selfridges, Manchester. I got in invite through my other job at Manchester Fashion Network and as it turned out I ended up being the only press person there. The event was to launch the new shop and to preview their A/W collection. As I was the only press there I was given to right to take as many photos as I liked(I spoke to one of COS' PR team and they said they usually don't let people take images, they took exception with me!). I took Hollie as my +1. The concession is only womenswear currently but I personally spoke to COS' Creative Director and told her to sort a menswear bit out.
On the way to the event we got snapped by the multi-talented illustrator/design Kate Mcleish, who is also a friend;
Wearing - J+ Uniqlo Khaki Blazer, vintage turquoise t-shirt, Topman loose chinos, Clarks desert boots.

once again, can I just say I am a bit jealous that you get to live in England?! I found when I was there that you guys have much better clothing stores. I kind of loved Topshop.

You 2 are the loveliest couple! Is being moved 'down to Topman' a backwards move in your Topman career? and did you work in Topshop HQ in London? That must be quite something.
