Career

My career is one that is ever changing and at times hectic. I’ve been in the fashion industry for almost 4 years. With it has come lessons on how to shake off my introverted personality when it is called for and growing thicker skin. Learning how to professionally  respond to different personalities and at times not very nice ones was also a learning curve. It started before I even graduated college when I was hired the day my internship ended. The company I interned for hired me in a different division. I learned so much in that position that prepared me for future jobs. After a few months my time there ended, and looking at it now it was truly for the best.

Although ask anyone, you don’t want to leave one position without an immediate back up. With almost a year of no work I decided to start my blog and  try freelancing, which is what I do now.  I’ve worked for many different companies in various positions.  Some more interesting than others but in every one I’ve learned something new. There are pros like making your own schedule and cons like having to find something new once a job is finished. The creative industries are extremely competitive and I advise anyone who asks me about going into the fashion industry, not to go into it unless it is your true passion. It is not what you see on TV and nor did I expect it to be.

Some of the companies I have worked for include:  Christian Louboutin, Louis Vuitton, David Yurhman and Makeup For Ever just to name a few. Positions held include sales assistant, showroom coordinator, stylist intern and many more.

Recently I had a chat discussing my varying career with a very smart social media expert who suggested I share more of what I do. So as I do different jobs I will share the most interesting and fun parts of them. Hopefully this will give you a piece of what reality looks like for certain fashion professionals.

As always I look forward to your thoughts and feedback!

Fbf to waiting for the 6 to get me to the @metmuseum . Thought I’d use this post to do a little “about me” .
1. I’m Puerto Rican (🇵🇷) 
2. I’ve lived on the northeast coast all my life. 
3. I have a Bachelors Degree in Fashion Marketing and Management with a Minor in International Business.
4. Cooking is very annoying to me but I like to bake!
5. I love a good period drama ( I’m re-watching @outlander_starz actually)
6. My blog @concreteislandista helped me realize my love of writing and editing and changed what I wanted to do with my career.
Now tell me a few things about you! #aboutme #discoverunder5k #boricuabloggers

Fashion and Time are both in nature in a constant movement forward. Although fashion takes on inspiration from the past, present and future. How do you think Fashion affects Time and vice versa? Read about the Fashion exhibition About Time: Fashion and Duration to learn more. Link in bio. #fashionandduration #abouttimefashionandduration #abouttime #discoverunder5k

My all time favorite time in history is the roaring 20’s. The beginning of so many important events in history but also the most beautiful in terms of fashion with the likes of Coco Chanel making history with their designs. Also the era where corsets were no more. Swipe for more details. And visit the blog for more on The Pursuit of Fashion: The Sandy Schreier Collection exhibition! Subscribe while you’re there! What’s your favorite time in fashion history? #thesandyschreiercollection #discoverunder5k #themet #fashionhistory101 #inpursuitoffashion #InPursuitOfFashion

“Fashion collecting was once described by Richard Martin, former Curator in Charge of the Costume Institute as an “alien endeavor” for its perceived distance from the practice of collecting fine art and for the challenges of preservation and display posed by the medium. While fashion has now found a secure place within museums, it remains a relatively rare area of focus within private collections.”- @metmuseum Read about the “In Pursuit of Fashion-The Sandy Schreier Collection” exhibition on the blog and see it in the Reels I made of it. Link in bio! If you have been following me for a while or read my blog you know fashion exhibitions and the history behind the pieces are the reason I started my blog @concreteislandista and it will always be a topic I take love and care in covering not only because I have a background in the fashion industry but because I grew up loving art and these exhibitions in particular. Its never only about what you see but the history. While you’re on the blog hit that subscribe button so you don’t miss out on fashion history like this and more.
