Romantic Winter

 
Hi everyone :)
Thanks for all the great comments on my last post, I've got the Halloween photos so I'll pop them up soon so you can see the costume!

Just thought I'd put up a few NICE pictures of winter - if there's any fellow Brit readers out there I don't know about you but the clocks going back has really thrown me! Dark mornings, dark days, dark evenings, cold, wind, rain - bleurgh! It seems as though Autumn has lasted about a week, and now were straight into Winter :( 
So I thought I'd do a post to remind myself of all the lovely things about winter - the chunky knits, the snow and ice, the yummy hot drinks, twinkly christmas lights, winter romance...actually who am I kidding I love winter! :D

Olivia Young - Set Dresser and Stylist, and Halloween Plans

Hello everyone :)

Thanks for all the supportive comments in my last posts. Working as Assistant Stylist for Sally Conran at The White Company was amazing - so many beautiful things to see! Once the catalogue is out, I'll get some of the pictures and put them up here so you can see what I was doing.

In the mean time, here's a bit of a promo post!

I've recently set up a Facebook promoting my Set Dressing and Styling, and I'd love it if you could all like it for me!

Also, if you look on the right hand column of my page, you'll see a link for PINTEREST and for ARTSTHREAD - feel free to have a look - especially Pinterest as I'm getting addicted! Any other Pinners out there?

So anyway, more importantly...HALLOWEEN! :D

I'm excited as you can tell.

I'm stuck though, do I go as...

 

Or....

Hmmm decisions decisions.

What are you going as this year?

 

Finally heres a phot from the Apothecary set I did a while back now, which you can view HERE if you would like to see something to get you in the Halloween mood!

Catch Up Post Part 2! Graduation, Prop Studios, and The White Company.

 

An off-guard snap taken by my Ma, just after Graduation.

 

 
Throwing off our hats - it's been a long, hard three years - but a First Class Honors (BA Hons) Degree was worth it :)

 

Here's some photos of the work of Prop Studios, where I was working at a few weeks ago. Such an amazing eye opening experience, the talent of the people there blew my mind!

 

And here's the biggie... I've bagged myself a job as Assistant Stylist to the amazing SALLY CONRAN, in a shoot for The White Company in London for a while - such an amazing opportunity, I just can't wait! Here's some previous White Company shoots below to get you aquainted with what I'll be working on :)

Got to say this past year has been incredible. From working my butt off on some amazing projects at Uni and gaining a First Class Honors, to working on WWZ, the new Brad Pitt film, to interning at H&A, to working at Prop Studios to this Assistant Stylist job - all of it has been incredible. I never have any money, I'm permanantly on a bus/train/tube/taxi, saying goodbye to my family and working through the night, but I'm honestly grateful for everything I have worked hard for, and also been given by so many kind and thoughtful people.

Thanks for following this blog and for all your support. I enjoy sharing the start of my fledgling career with you, and I hope you stick with me all the way :)

Bristol Times

  

So my experience at Homes & Antiques was an interesting one, I learnt a lot, and was in a beautiful beautiful city - Bristol :) 

I met some lovely kind strangers, stayed in two wonderful, dreamy hotels, and spent hours wandering around the warm sunny city :) 

 Here's a lamp post that I found, despite the warm weather, wearing a wooly jumper! :) Enjoy the rest of the pics. 

 

I loved Bristol, and would absolutely adore to go back :) 

I also met a lovely, very talented girl called Charlie at H&A, who is an incredibly accomplished illustrator. Click HERE and HERE to check out her amazing work! :)
