What to Expect in Master Degree

Due to a lot of questions about the course I am currently enrolling in, I think this post would be benefit for those who are still looking for the right answer about Master Degree and if this course will be the best long-term career implementation. I mentioned about this further education in the previous post that experience is still one of the most crucial skills we need because not everybody needs this master degree, however, it also important to learn and step up to the next level of in depth knowledge about fashion industry. Therefore, I am gonna tell you everything about the module, as well as, what to expect in Masters level. 

I am studying MA:International Fashion Marketing Management because this course would be able to fulfill my career as a street fashion blogger in terms of online marketing, as well as, fashion business. Do not expect that masters level is about the lecture in class since the reality is more about 'research' and 'critical thinking' 

I attend the class only twice a week with no exam but %100 of project. So far, I have been studying Product Development, Organization (Financial Report), Promotion and Communication. It is quite intense tbh because it takes me only a year to accomplish, but I would recommend you guys who recently graduated from university to go out and work for a year or two before applying to this course (but for me I went out backpacking with my friends instead lol) because sometimes it can be difficult to think about the concrete picture of the organization, as well as, the process of the company. I have been working in this industry for 3-4 years so it is what I have been doing in everyday life. I love everything about online marketing and business, hence some of the courses I take can be very beneficial to adapt in my business. It sounds like undergrad program, but this MA level is more in-depth in terms of research and how to apply in reality. 

What I love the most? Promotion and Communication are fun for me. I love thinking and perceiving in both business owner's logic, and customers point of view. These two make me think about how to reach the consumers and make it success. 

I love it so far, but it does have a flaw in its path since I still confirm in my own words that 'experience is still more important' MA is just another level of understanding the process of fashion business in the whole new level, that's all. 

Outfit- Today I'm wearing the blazer sent from The Vintage Scene, one of the vintage stores I love. I used to be the person who wore only tank-top and skinny jeans all the time but I have to adapt myself and take The Equinox Fashion to the next level because I am not quite the same person as before. I am the founder/writer of this blogosphere, studying Master Degree and running the online accessories business called 'Hidden Treasure' So, I always seek for the items to boost up my normal outfit in order to look more professional. I love street fashion, but also love to mix&match and completely elevate the look to become more appropriate in some circumstances. I am still wearing jeans and this colourful crop top, however, I decided to put this blazer on because it matches with the look. 

I also love the products provided from The Vintage Scene on the website which can be found on ASOS Marketplace too. If you love 90s vibe, you will love the store like I do :)

Event: After Dark

The continuation from "The Equinox Fashion at Dr. Martens Manchester Arndale" last week, I attended 'After Dark' hosted by Manchester Arndale in order to participate in bloggers' party dresses showcase. There were approximately 23ish bloggers who joined the night, however, only 10 dresses were selected to be displayed on the window of the Arndale. I hadn't expect to be in the top ten but..I made it! Everything always goes beyond my expectation tbh.

On November 27th 2014, I arrived at Arndale House about 7ish pm then I went straight to the event which was at the 10th floor. I saw so many bloggers excited about their selections that were beautifully prepared with the name tags on, however, what made me even stoked was that I saw one of the muas who was once played the magic on my face during the photo shoot with Get The Label. Obviously, I couldn't be happier because she knows what I like "Very dark smoky eyes and dark lipstick"

Like I said in the previous post that I got Dr.Martens's dress for the event which sounded so coincident(But I believe it's because of the law of attraction) I wore Dr.Martens from top to toe. Surprisingly, even the heels also belong to Dr.Martens so I was extremely happy about it since I am street fashion blogger and I was wearing one of the renowned street brands I love. I really didn't care if I was going to be in the top ten or not because I just wanted to represent the brand in my style, and that's why I was there for. 

Dress- Dr.Martens

Shoes- Dr.Martens

Also, you can VOTE for my dress in order to win £100  at https://www.manchesterarndale.com/after_dark_home.aspx I would be really appreciate it :) 

Thank you Arndale House for having me, also big love to Dr.Martens Manchester!

Music Is My Inspiration

I still remember the day I listened to Back Street Boys and RHCP when I was about 9 years old. 90s childhood of mine was well-spent by fusing the culture of films and music. Therefore, no wonder why I grow up with the music in my head. 

Likewise, I don't have any trends or style icons when it comes to "fashion" since all I have gotten is from "music" Truthfully, I play the music since the moment I wake up, take a shower, cook, get on the bus etc. My heart is beating with the tunes I listen, and I love it like that. I don't care about being stylish or trendy because what I really want is to let my outfit speaks by itself. What I mean by speak? It means to illustrate who I am, what kind of characteristic I have, as well as, the mood of that day. 

Music brightens up my life, and it helps me get through with so many circumstances no matter when I'm happy or discouraged. It does really help me tbh. However, I don't listen to pop music that much since it is too mainstream for me. I don't mind if my friends want to play such tunes in the car or even at the party because we just want to have some fun, isn't it? But the playlists in my phone are something which called "electronica, rock, alternative" kinds of music. These music motivate me all the time. Call me crazy, but I have come this far in this blogger industry because of what I have been listening.

Who You Really Are

Mom:"When are you gonna wear pink dress or any feminine outfits like any other girls do?" 

Me: "I don't know...I really don't know" 

My mom has been repeating this question over and over, still my answer is the same. My wardrobes are fulled of monochrome pieces and I constantly in love with them. Never bored with black clothes nor items purchased from street fashion markets. However, I have recently thought about buying more colourful products and keeping them in my wardrobes just in case I desperately need a cheerful outfit for special occasions. Since I can't just wear black outfit to the events all the time, can I?

Personally, I feel extremely not confident when I wear such girly outfit. Sometimes, I wish I could wear something like any other girls wear but I don't feel like it's gonna happen soon. When I studied in high-school, I was really a sweet girl who cared about every single person on earth. I usually wore a skirt when I went out with my friends or even spent my money dresses all the time. But again, I was the target of criticism and judgement from people (no kidding but even my classmates also had fun talking about me). I felt horrible through the days I was in my high school life...seriously. 

Then I had an opportunity to go to the states where my attitude has started to changed. I have initiated the idea of getting tattoos, piercings etc and that's why my so-called friends started acting against me because they thought that I changed so much that they couldn't accept. I am still the same person but different attitudes, that's all. 

After that, I have taken a look closely to myself, and listened to my voice more and more. And I guess "Street fashion" is the right answer for me. I feel more confident when I put such style on my daily outfit. I feel like I don't even have to be scared of those people who look at me like they have something to say. Call me crazy, but I feel as if these clothes are encouraging me to be who I really am today. 

Well, it is me and I love it like this.

Moving Experience x Majiquelondon

Some of you may know that I have recently just settled down in Manchester, United Kingdom. Yes moving again! I was originally born in Bangkok, Thailand but my life is all about travelling when I was a kid but "moving" as in the age of 20s. From Bangkok to Chicago to London and now Manchester. I have been working my *** off just to save some money in order to accomplish on something worth a life time. 

Working from being an English Tutor to Sandwich maker at Dunkin's Donut, now I have been working as a full-time street fashion blogger for The Equinox Fashion for 3 years. Also, I have just enrolled MA: International Fashion Marketing Management so that I can finally finish my master degree. My life right now can be compared to the boiling pot which mixed with many ingredients. I have many responsibilities to take care of not only just working on my website, but also taking my education to the next level. However, I believe that whatever I am doing right now is defo gonna worth eventually. I arrived London two weeks ago, but just came to Manchester almost a week ago. Therefore, supermarket is what I call the 2nd home lol There are so many things I need to buy, as well as, ingredients to cook. You know how hard it is to move to another city (or even another country for me!) when you barely know anyone. It has been tiring days but I guess this is what the meaning of moving. 

After London Fashion Week I attended, now let's get the game of Manchester begin. For these five weeks, "Majique London'' is taking over the posts of The Equinox Fashion completely. According to the network of The Blogger Programme, a platform which allows bloggers/publishers to connect with brands, that's how I could get in touch with Majique London. 

I have received loads of beautiful items I chose from Majique London, however, my looks are still going to be my streetstyle signature. I love the combination of cool street fashion and statement necklaces or any other accessories. It is all about how you mix&match what you've already possessed to be your own style. Every time I received an email about collaboration, I always have to make sure that those products are not gonna be a waste since some people only say yes to the brands just to be featured with them. And I don't want that to happen because it is not what The Equinox Fashion's been created.

To Manchester x Rock On Ruby

From Bangkok to Florida, Chicago, London, Kathmandu, California and etc These cities have unquestionably taught me how to appreciate life and living things because my life itself is not merely about street fashion but music and travelling as well. In other words, these factors make me feel alive. 

Some of you may perceive that I am moving to Manchester, United Kingdom in September and will be a blogger based, also study international fashion marketing management for my Master Degree for a year. It is definitely not the 1st time moving, but it is my very first stage of "moving alone" And the fact that I am still not getting used to British accent&culture that much. I lived in United States before but I had friends to support me, or in fact my life didn't even have such assertive purposes in those days. So, life was pretty smooth and fun during the verge of becoming a pre-adulthood. However, why Manchester not London this time? 

Actually, I love city life, I love being inspired, I love living in massive cities like New York or Chicago, but the characters within Manchester can fulfill my needs in street fashion. Moreover, my goal is to do something with fashion in town, so I absolutely need to discover and do things as many as I possibly can. Even though, its size is not that big compared to where I have been before, it still a good option to give it a shot. Some people even said to me "Oh! why you have to go there? What are you gonna do with fashion in such city like that? People are so rude, the city is dirty blah blah blah" But if you are a city girl, you will understand the way of life in a big city. And I love it like that. Well, if you live in Chicago before, that means you have passed the test of risking your life in such a dangerous city (Still wanna go back though lol) Especially, going solo will be an extremely risky yet interesting experience. 

Am I nervous? Yes, of course! But i don't really give a S*** about it that much. I know my feelings, and I let them stay there without having any influences on my track. Plus, America has taught me so well of how to be strong and handle unexpected situations. This story sounds like a movie but it really an actual "based on my true story"

"I had never expected to sit on the pavement of the street just to wait for a random transportation to go back home but it happened in Orlando, Florida 6 years ago. I got on a bus to go to another town which I had to do something with my paper work, unfortunately I was informed that I came to the wrong place. OMFG! It took me an hour on the bus just to get here and breath for 5 minutes! So, I had to catch another ride to go back home. However, it wasn't that easy since there weren't any buses...lol I had a phone but i didn't know who to call because I had just arrived Orlando a day before. I tried to go from stores to stores in order to ask for help but few people speaking English because they were Spanish. At the end of the day, I sat on the street and waited for luck to come. I was really scared though because I didn't even know if I would be able to make it home. Think about the movie scene of Hangover or anything that the characters have to hitchhike strangers' cars. Oh yea, I was so lucky to experience such a movie scene like that! Finally, the bus came in hour later which means I could finally catch it to downtown....:)"

What I am trying to say is going abroad can be fun and pain in the same time. However, it can be a great moment of your life. Eventually, you will have a story to tell your kids in the future of what you've been through. 

See you in a bit Manchester <3
