Make Do Style: Back to school!

Back to school!

Today I go into a school for a few hours to sit on a panel for sixth formers doing interviews for specific media jobs. It was really nice to be asked and I was happy to volunteer my time. I feel quite excited and am planning my back to school outfit.

Of course I'm thinking British and I'd think Dame Vivienne Westwood would be nice at this type of thing so I will channel her tomorrow in the encouraging stakes.

If only one could nip in to Selfridges and borrow some items. I think I would select this dre ss from Vivienne Westwood for £250

It is dignified enough and has that twist to get attention. It would feel like a gown sweeping all the corridors. I wonder if I'm allowed to take detention!

That dress is stunning! Sounds like you've got an interesting event to attend. Young people need great role models to inspire their career decisions rather than looking to reality stars and d-list celebs. Good luck with going back to school!
