catwalk

2nd November: Day 21 of doing one thing as if I was living that day as my last.

There are two things I really wanted to do during my event. The first was to take a photo with Leona. This didn’t happen in the pre-event craziness.

The second was to take a picture on the catwalk. So instead of my usual approach of trying to slip in a photo when no one is looking, I told the technical director that I wanted to do this. I felt a bit silly, but empowered that I actually put out my desire.

So when I came out from dinner and saw that the catwalk had been ripped apart for load out, I was crushed! It was only the next day that perhaps just because I was trying to see the silver lining, I realised that it was the first time that I was so bold to voice my “silly request.”

1st November: Day 20 of doing one thing as if I was living that day as my last.

After a very long day of fashion and music shows on site, what better than a super cozy historic pub, amazing colleagues and flowing champagne? …Windsor Castle in Kensington

upgrade

31st October: Day 19 of doing one thing as if I was living that day as my last.

Somehow I managed to get on the list of senior crew members and got an upgrade to executive! And then the hotel staff started badgering me when I was in the shower and just had fallen asleep at the end of an insanely long day and these inconveniences caused my colleague to have me upgraded again! to executive suite!

30th October: Day 18 of doing one thing as if I was living that day as my last.

None of this being too shy to take photos or stand front and centre during my events.  It’s time to take advantage of my ALL ACCESS ALL AREAS pass!  After all, I was one of the few that created this show!
