FINAL POST

So my buyers pack is now complete, research file = complete, FMP = complete. I HAVE FINISHED. (Well until I print you off). This means this is my final ever post.
I can't believe the year has finished and I now have to go into the big bad world to try and find a job for the rest of my life NOOOOOOOO scary stuff. At least I now know what career I want to do so hopefully it won't be so bad...
I hope you have enjoyed reading the development of my FMP as much as I have writing it. Its a kind of weird to think that tomorrow is the last day at FRA. Bit emotional if I'm honest but it hasn't yet sunk in. I have met many wonderful people, from tutors to classmates to buyers throughout this year, and I hope to continue my journey into a BAA role. I have been on two fantastic placements, both of which I have learnt so much from. Now I am prepared for the world of fashion retail. Wish me luck. Adios x

The Buyers Pack




Wednesday 6 June 2012

2 DAYS TO GO...

I feel like I have made progress today because..... my FMP is complete and is currently in the hands of the FRA Library being bound, ready for collection on Friday! THIS IS GOOD NEWS!
So now that I have got the main project off of my shoulders, I can now finish off my garment tech buyers pack, and put together my research file.
I'm hoping my buyers pack won't take TOO long but we will see! Need to add printing processes and garment specs.
My research file just needs to be organised into subjects and to include a bibliography. So hopefully by this time tomorrow I will be completely completed forever and ever and everrrrrrrrrrrrr.
I will speak tomorrow when HOPEFULLY everything will be done and I can RELAX after an intense 5 weeks of FMP - PHEW

THE STORY SO FAR...






4 Days to Go EEK

So its Tuesday, and hand-in is on Friday, and there is still lots to do!
The main thing I need to write up is my merchandising. The last thing I wanted to do was leave it last, and what have I done? Left it last - I just kept putting it off and off! Once I have completed my merch, I'm going to get it checked at the drop in session tomorrow for the last time before I can bound my FMP. wow
So on top of my merch, I need to just finish off some bits. My SWOT, planogram and store layout. Once merch is out the way I'll be on the home straight at long last! Until then, its going to be a longggggggggg night........

TO DO LIST

Lots still left to do but its do-able!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Must keep going can't stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
