Meet The Interns! Kirsten & Emily!

Hi Everyone I’m Emily, one of La Mode’s new interns. I’m a senior at Rowan University majoring in advertising. This is the start of my final semester, only 116 days until graduation (not that I am counting or anything...lol).

I am really excited about my internship. Nikki is the perfect mentor; very organized and professional yet also funny and great to be around. I expect to learn a lot during my time here. Working for Le Mode will let me utilize my advertising and marketing knowledge in a field I love; fashion. My favorite designer is Betsey Johnson; her designs are over the top, but I love her use of color and her flair for whimsy. I own several of her bags and would love a few pieces of her jewelry. Attached is a picture of my favorite Betsey bag. Purchased from her store at the Pier in Atlantic City, this fun and wild bag is definitely me!

You know how some people love shoes, well I love handbags! Besides my Betsey bags, I own Dooney & Bourke bags, Michael Kors bags and, of course, quite a few Coach bags- see picture. Their Poppy Collection is amazing!! It’s bright and colorful and fun.

Personally, I enjoy traveling, hanging out with friends and family and having fun. I love my new iTouch, going to concerts and movies, photography and of course shopping.

I just returned from a trip to New York City, details next week.

Emily :)

My name is Kirsten Braun I’m 26, and I absolutely love fashion! I am very eager and excited to be working as an intern for La Mode. I have my associates degree in Marketing and I am currently attending school at DeVry University in PA working on my bachelors degree in Technical Management with a concentration in Small Business and Entrepreneurial ship. I started college at DeVry in 2008 with the intentions of graduating and then working in the marketing/entertainment industry. Even though I have always loved fashion I wasn’t sure if I could make a career out of it. After much thinking, I realized that because of my love to shop and my natural ability to pick out the latest trend and putting together outfits that are trendy but yet within my budget. What initially attracted me to La Mode was the fact that La Mode is in the fashion industry and that working for La Mode will help me gain the experience needed in order to pursue my career. Using the team approach I am sure that La Mode and myself can learn from each other and help La Mode grow to be a great success!

Till next week :)

Intermission :)

Hey Everyone!

It has been super busy for me in the last couple of days with work , La mode & my family. So firstly I would like to apologize to you guys because I haven't read or commented on blogs lately. I will do that as soon as I am done writing this post :) . So where do I start , my Interns are amazing! I am so excited about all they will be working on this semester. They have already started working on our first annual charity event. I will be posting their introductory blog posts shortly.La Mode has been doing great , we just got another Bridal client which is amazing! If you know anyone getting married or if you are or just want personal shopping advice La mode can HELP :)

The twins are growing sooo fast its mind blowing. The new things they seem to learn , do or say is so funny. It is such a delight to watch them grow , I'm so blessed. I think am going to increase how much I read to them daily because they love it when I read to them. I can't wait till it gets warmer though this weather sucks big time. This morning it has been raining like crazy already. Oh how can I forget the kisses they give to me through out the day priceless!

On a different note , GO SAINTS! :) woo woo I am so happy they won ! Although my main team is the EAGLES they didn't make bohoo !! I had to move on to my default team , which will be the SAINTS in the Superbowl. New Orleans post Katrina needs this to boost them up as a city. It was wonderful watching how they were celebrating in the streets when they won the NFC championship yesterday. I am a HUGE!! Football fan , I even took Superbowl Sunday off from work :)

The fashion world doesn't waste anytime spring is already hitting the stores! I plan to have a spring report for everyone later on in the week. With where to get the hottest spring pieces at an affordable price. Also we plan to come up with spring must haves as well.

White House Black Market is going well I love it there. I love my career in Fashion,especially retail fashion because I get to first hand connect with the people. I am a Sales Lead mgr now but I am thinking that I might want to climb up the ladder eventually. We plan to have a fashion show soon which I will be heading so that will be fun.

Well I feel like I have been talking way too much lol... So let me end here! I will post the Interns posts shortly. What have you all been up too ?

xoxoNik
