The Fashionista (Intern?)

Hello My Lovely Celebutantes, I know it seems like I apologize every single post, but I am sorry that I have not been the most frequent with posting. I am trying to get back into it and I will be posting every 1-2 weeks. I hope you like this post. I am starting work with my mother and I’ve decided to share that journey with you. You will also be meeting my best friends and my sister.

Ethereal Fashions (Corporate)

9:00 AM

Charlotte Winters smiled radiantly as she strutted into Ethereal Fashions. As she walked passed on of the many mirrored walls, she checked her reflection. Her mother had told her to go casual chic so she put on her favorite grey sweater, classy black jeans, and some ah-mazing red pumps to spice things up. It was the ultimate casual-chic outfit to spend all day planning and buying fashions for her mothers fashion company.

Speaking of her mother’s fashion company, here is a little back story. Her mother, Sicily Etherton-Winters was the number one supermodel in America then decided she wanted to do something more fulfilling with her life, other than being ABSOLUTELY gorgeous. She decided to start her own fashion company that mirrored her supermodel style. The line is part casual, part designer chic. Her mother had decided to hire Charlotte for the summer. Charlotte had no idea what she would be doing but it would be, no doubt, something fabulous.

12:00 PM

So not as fabulous as Charlotte had thought….She was placed in a room with several other desks with several other (sorta) well dressed girls sitting at those desks. They were all working on the same account transfers for the company. Charlotte still could not figure out why she was here. The man walking around kept telling all the girls that if they wanted to get anywhere in the fashion industry, they have to work from the bottom up. This made no sense to Charlotte because she was already at the top. Suddenly, her mother burst into the room, bustling with papers flying everywhere. She kept asking the man, whose name was later identified as Charles, if the accounts were finished yet. Charlotte’s mothers’ eyes dated around the room and landed on Charlotte. She let out a slightly loud laugh. She asked Charles why her fabulous daughter was sitting in this room with random interns. Charles’s face turned white and he apologized profusely. He said he had mistaken her for an intern ( yeah…okay….just take a look at her compared to all the other interns). Her mother asked Charlotte to follow her to her own office.

2:00 PM

Charlotte’s mother led her into a pristine white office. The desk was shiny, smooth, white wood. The shelving on the wall had fashion inspiration pieces all over it; from Coco Chanel’s biography to Karl Lagerfeild’s Fashion Book. Best of all, the back wall was a giant mood board; decorated with paris inspired designs and the latest fashion show pics. This office was clearly tailored by her mother for Charlotte. Her mother explained that Charlotte would be working as merchandising and design intern under her supervision. She wanted to make sure her daughter was treated like the Alpha she is, and not like some random intern. She would arrive at 9:00 AM everyday and leave at 5:00 PM but today she would leave at 3:00 PM.

3:00 PM

Charlotte exited Ethereal Fashions and stepped into the luxury SUV waiting for her. Even though she had not done much that day, she was still quite tired from the confusion this day has held. She was ready to get home and collapse into her silk-filled bed before tomorrow’s long day at Ethereal Fashions.

My Xmas Gift Haul

Hello My lovely Celebutantes,

I said I would reveal my gift haul from christmas and I don’t mean to brag, but I got some effing awesome gifts

Some of the gifts will have pictures and some will not because I don’t think they all need pictures to explain them.

Charlotte’s Xmas Gift Haul 2014

1. My first, and probably best, present was a pair of UGG boots, but not the stereotypical, knee high black or tan ones. No, Mine are a mix of a sweater UGG and a stereotypical tan one. They are the warmest boots ever and they go with almost everything. I say almost because there are some sweaters that these UGGs will just not mesh with. Any way, here is a picture to further explain the awesomeness of my boots.

(FYI, just figured out they could be rolled up from the ankle version. YESSS)

2. My second gift was a gift from my sister. It’s a noise machine and it’s fantastic! If any of you live in New York, you know that it’s crazy noisy all of the time. multiply that with the constant noise of drunk party goers and loud college students, and you’ve got a very angry, tired Charlotte. Let me tell you, tired Charlotte is not to be messed with (and plus if I don’t get at least 6 hours of beauty sleep, i get these nasty underage circles that I have to use tons of makeup to cover and that’s just not fun. My noise machine is also sleek, white, and beautiful. It plays several noises, including white noise, campfire, and (my favorite) Ocean Waves.

3. I got a Lilly Pulitzer IPhone 5 case. It’s pink with cute little flowers on it. It’s totally my personality and one of the best gifts I got. It’s not some flimsy type of plastic phone case either. Nope, it’s made of hardcore stuff, like a Speck case is.

4. I also got a lot of bath stuff and lotions. I got some bath bombs (if you don’t know what these are, go to lush and ask a salesperson). They are awesome little fizzy balls that contain ingredients that will make your skin all pretty and glory while you relax in the tub. I also got a bunch of lotions from Bath and Body Works. I got two Sea Island Cotton scented lotions (AKA my favorite scent), and I got a peppermint swirl and Pumpkin.

5. I have been OBSESSED with being healthy recently so, I bought this book for myself as a christmas present, along with a gym membership while I am home from college given to me by my parents. The book is called The Skinny Confidential. It is written by Lauryn Evarts. If you don’t know who that is, she is a lifestyle and fitness blogger. She created and writes one of my favorite blogs of all time, The Skinny Confidential. Anyway, the book is all of her tips and tricks on everything from hair to fitness. It’s a really awesome book and you should visit her website in the link above.

(I really do love this book and the blog. Her tips helped me restore my colored hair to BEAUTIFUL)

6. I got some clothes (as always). I got a Victoria’s Secret Sports Bra. It is very pretty with flowers all over it. It is perfect for working out in because it has a lot of support, plus it’s not ugly like some sports bras are. It really makes you want to work out just so people can see the pretty straps peeks out of your shirt. I also got an American Eagle Lined Jacket. It’s the most comfortable jacket I own. Plus, it is perfect to wear to the gym on cold days. It goes perfectly with black leggings, Reebok tennis shoes, and a bun in your hair.

I did get some other gifts, but these are the most notable and, if listed all of my gifts, there would be about 40+ more gifts on this list. That would take forever to type and for you to read.

Welcome Week Recap: Day One

August 25, 2014

Winter’s Estate

7:05 AM

Charlotte Winters awoke from her Kumikoon silk sheets with a tired, but polite, yawn. She looked at the clock on her dresser and almost fell out of her bed. Why hadn’t her mother waken her. She only had an hour to get ready before leaving for Columbia. A few months back, lets say around March, Charlotte Kennedy Winters had received her acceptance and scholarship packet from Columbia University. She had applied early decision, just like her father had and was very excited when she received that packet. She knew she would get in, of course, because her father had gone there and was a reputable alumni. She was a legacy and we all know how important legacy is to the Ivy Leagues. Charlotte did have her own claim to the Winters name , though. She had been a top international model since she was twelve years old and had modeled in more designer fashion shows than she can count. When she turned 18, she decided that she was going to take time off from modeling and go to school. Of course, columbia had been the only choice and now it was time for welcome week. Charlotte put her outfit, which she had picked out two nights ago, on and did her makeup in her light up vanity. She put her white, Marc Jacobs kitten heels on and ran down the stairs. Her mother and father were both waiting at the door next to her Louis Vuitton suitcases. They had their driver and maid load the luggage into the black SUV and they were off.

Columbia University

8:30 AM

When the driver arrived at the university, Charlotte jumped out of the car and walk-ran to the check in table. She did not like being late and refused to be late on her first day at Columbia. She stated her name and she could see the faces of the admissions team light up. They knew who she was. A woman with bright blonde hair and the fakest blue eyes Charlotte had ever seen in her life handed her her welcome packet and her roommate assignment. Of course, Charlotte already knew her roommate. Her name was Ambrosia Williams, best friend since birth and Computer Information Systems major. I know, dorky sounding right? Well, even though Ambrosia is smart and a little dorky, she is the most beautiful and contradictory nerd anyone had ever seen. Nerd=stringy hair, glasses, pale skin, and pimples right? WRONG! Ambrosia was tan, curtesy of her mothers Filipino heritage, long brow hair, and a fashion sense that would make Kate Spade drop her entire line just to pick up whatever this girl was wearing. Charlotte knew Ambrosia had gotten here early to start decorating the dorm. She and her parents made their way up to the dorm.

9:00 AM

Charlotte entered dorm number 220 and instantly fell in love. Ambrosia, though not present, had already moved all the furniture so the room was totally zen, put sheer, sparkly wall decals on one wall near Charlotte’s bed, and put two Kate Spade planners on the desks, Black and white for Ambrosia and white and gold for Charlotte. she knew her so well. Charlotte and her parents had already sent someone to put both the girls bedding on and all that was left to do was say goodbye.

It was a sad goodbye, but Charlotte was ready to be on her own. She walked her parents out to the car and waved goodbye as the car pulled away.

10:30 AM

Charlotte walked back up to the dorm and was greeted with a warm hug by Ambrosia. They had to be at welcome orientation at two, so they had some time to catch up. They talked about the vacations they had taken. Ambrosia had gone to Spain and Italy with her brother. Charlotte had gone to France and Russia to visit her grandparents. They talked about the boys that they had seen already and plans for the next few nights (fraternity parties were already starting and they had been invited to three). They both also planned on rushing for Kappa Alpha Theta sorority, which both of their mothers had been members of. They talked and talked until 1:30 PM and then they headed out to welcome orientation.

2:00 PM

Charlotte and Ambrosia arrived at the welcome orientation and were instantly swarmed by clubs and academic officials. Clearly, people knew what they looked like and knew who they were. After they finished talking to some representatives, they found their seats and waited for the dean to start the speech. It was the usual mumbo-jumbo about ow we are so happy that you chose Columbia, this will be a great year, and academic policy is important. Charlotte was way to busy thinking about her future at this place to listen to this boring speech. The speech finally ended and they were dismissed to go to the club fair. Charlotte already knew which club she was joining, Since she was a fashion merchandising major, she joined fashion club. Of course they were clad to have her, considering she offered to host some of their events at her mothers stores. Ambrosia joined the business for rising entrepreneurs club. After they were both done joining club, they headed to dinner and then back to their room.

7:00 PM

After a long day, Charlotte and Ambrosia compared their schedules and decided to FaceTime Deseri. Deseri LaBelle was their other best friend. She went to Parsons School of Design because she wanted to be a fashion designer. They were planning on meeting her this weekend but, they couldn’t wait to see her. She talked about her classes, boys she saw, people she met, and her awesome roommate. It was now ten o’clock at night and Deseri said she had to go to bed. Charlotte and Ambrosia both decided that they would watch their favorite movie, The Other Woman, and go to bed right after. After all, they had a big day tomorrow.
