Spring 2012 Product Development Intern at TOMS


I just got a call from TOMS human resources that I will be their Spring 2012 Product Development Intern! I am super excited for this journey and experience. I am very thankful and feel very blessed to have this opportunity. One of my favorite quotes says it best, My cup overflows with blessings. Psalm 23:5. I truly believe all the opportunities that I have been given are blessings, and have made me who I am today.

As I look at the list I made of the jobs that I have applied for, I remember back to when I applied for TOMS (back in November). I received a phone call in December where right then and there, I had my first phone interview with no warning (talk about being ready for anything and everything! That's the fashion industry for you!). Then I was told my application was going to be forwarded to the head managers, and I would be hearing back from them soon to see if I was going to be moving onto the next step. Then, a few days later, I got an email stating that I would be having a phone interview with two people from the Product Development department. At the end of my phone interview, they asked if I was able to come in for an in-person interview the next week, so I made my way down to HQ. (I looked like a kid in the candy store when I walked in amazed to be at the TOMS HQ and with Blake a few feet away from me on the phone, starring in my direction...(talk about awkward moments...)). Then I met with some people in the Product Development department and I finally got to meet the HR person that I had been conversing with through emails this whole time.  Afterwards, I headed back to my car with an hour still left on the meter.

I am hoping I will write and share my adventures in this blog with you, because I feel and know a new chapter in my life is about to unfold, so come along with me for the ride. :)

Thank you for reading! :)

LoveCulture Outifts




Hello Everyone!
I have created some casual and evening outfits using items from LoveCulture. In these outfits, I added some items that will keep you looking fashion forward and warm during these cold winter days. We have some colorful scarves, hats, and leg warmers to boot! And to boot, I literally mean you can wear them with boots!  You can wear them with a pair I have featured (the black convertible zipper boot) because you can wear them two ways- rolled down a little bit or not. If you roll them down a bit, you can have your super cozy and fashion forward leg warmers for all to see! How great is that? 
I have also incorporated some color blocking, animal print, sparkles, and polka dots into the mix, and voila! You will look confident and be a trendsetter in no time. 
Thank You for reading!
