Barneys // 21.02.2012

Dear readers! I'm sorry for the lower quality pictures, they're taken with my Blackberry. For school I have to do an 3 days during internship, something in the direction I want to do later and since my big passion is fashion, so why not do this at a clothing store? The shop is called Barneys.

On my first day they showed me where to leave my stuff and then I could start almost right away. I was able to help with clients, pack clothes as a gift and with the hanging and folding of the clothes. It wasn't very busy on this Monday, since a lot of stores don't open on this day, which is such a pity. But now my supervisor and I had to time to work on a document for my report: What's involved in setting up a store?

I got the chance to see new collections, of which a part will be purchased. Some of the brands they sell:

• Hydrogen
• Laundry Industry
• Paul & Joe Sister
• Northface
• Denham
• 7 For All Mankind
• Iro

My second day started with cleaning up, a daily activity of a store and yes, that's also involved in being an intern haha, then I sorted all the jeans to size and folded them. After doing that I could do something really fun: change all the mannequins in the store and window! Those mannequins are not very easy to change, since there almost 1 head bigger than me. But I'm really happy with the result, cause it's not as easy as it seems to dress five mannequins and make it all fit together.

What was I wearing on this second day: Compagnia Italiana taupe/grey blazer + black leggings, H&M black top, Di Lauro boots, Louis Vuitton Speedy and a silver Zara scarf.

Lots of love, Britt
