The Little Black Blog of StyleHello there!
My name is Pepa, I just graduated from college and I decided to create a blog to expand my Passion for Fashion. It won’t be any easy to succeed in a World Wide Web full of fashion blogs, but I’ll try to put the highlight on quality, originality, style, good taste and on the translation of the texts in as many languages as I can.
I’ll first talk a little bit about me, and how I got this Passion for Fashion.
As a child I always wanted to be a fashion designer or a journalist, however a mind full of fresh ideas and originality can absolutely NOT translate in beautiful sketches at all. So without any talent for sketches and my ideas turned out as a Barbie’s terrible handmade dress, I had to give up on the idea of turning a designer and focused all my attention to become a fashion journalist, after all both are related to the fashion industry.
So as soon as I finished high school I went to Universidade Católica Portuguesa as a communication and cultural freshman student, my “trip” as a student also involved some summer courses abroad (Italy and UK) and an all year Erasmus at Università degli Studi di Firenze studying media and journalism.
I came back to Lisbon a couple of months ago and I decided to take this year off to full in my Curriculum Vitae with internships, photography course, IELTS and create a fashion blog.
Next year hopefully, I’ll try to enter in London College of Fashion as a MA Fashion Journalism student.
So far, I had an internship as International Press Assistant at Lisbon Fashion Week spring/summer 09.
