Graduating this year? 5 Reasons why you need a leaver’s hoodie

Leaving school marks a rite of passage that should never be forgotten. It is a transition from one chapter in your life to another and is an occasion that should not be allowed to pass without some keepsake or memorabilia to remind you of the times you have had and the friends you may be leaving behind.

Leavers hoodies are the perfect memento and here are five good reasons why you should not be without one:

1. During your time at school you will have made friends and created memories that you will want to carry with you forever. Hoodies enable you to do this with ease, as you can have them printed with all the names of your friends and classmates and even some of the images of your time at school. Whenever you wear your hoodie or see it in your wardrobe the memories will come flooding back.

2. Leavers hoodies are more than just pieces of memorabilia – they are badges that identify you as a member of an exclusive club. Whenever you see one like yours in the street you will know that you have seen a friend or an acquaintance who shared a part of their life with you. And, who knows, it might be an old friend you have not seen for while or have lost contact with?

3. are stylish. You should have at least one in your wardrobe so why not make it a leavers hoodie. That way you combine a wonderful keepsake with up-to-date fashion that you can wear just about anywhere. They are also warm and hardwearing and go with almost anything.

Make the most of your wardrobe with these inspirational tips

We all know that feeling only too well. The frustration of not being able to find anything in your wardrobe. Of forgetting entirely that you own something. Of wearing the first thing you spot and for your mind to just go blank when morning comes and you have to get ready for work (or college) in a jiffy!

Getting up at 6am to sort your look out for the day is not your cup of tea. You are barely able to drag yourself out of the bed in the morning and don't quite wake up till you have turned your computer at work on.

You are not really lazy, you just seem to lose sight of a few things in the daily rut of life. So what can you do so that your wardrobe becomes an active ally of yours, instead of it just being a place where you hang everything you own and which gives you a mild panic attack every morning?

Learning How to Be a Model: Just as Important As How to Become One

Learning How to Be a Model: Just as Important As How to Become One

You’ve seen all the great models. They have a look about them that just breathes and practically screams: I know how wonderful I am and I know how wonderful you think I am. Many young and aspiring models make the mistake early on of believing that this image translates to personality, poise, and general demeanour of a model at all times, in all places, and for all things. But when you’re learning to become a model and you want to land a job, it’s important to recognize that the industry is getting tougher in terms of competition and knowing the truth behind the photos, the scenes, and the paparazzi could make or break your career before it ever truly begins. Eventually, while trying to become a big time model, you’ll get your first shoot. This shoot may determine whether you are able to get more jobs in the future and continue working as a model. Some of the most important things to remember on the shoot are:

  • Never lie. Not about your measurements, your height, your weight, or anything else. Stylists prepare for your arrival in advance. If you say you’re a full dress size smaller than you actually are in order to land the gig, you’re going to be fired from the shoot and earn a bad reputation that could end your career without a single photo ever being snapped of you.
  • Remember that you are not a supermodel, you have not earned your place in the industry, and that the people working with you are not working for you. The people you work with on your first shoots are the people who talk about you behind your back to other companies and photographers. What they say about you behind your back is entirely up to you.
  • Don’t think you can show up whenever you want. There’s no such thing as being fashionably late. Being late is unprofessional and rude. This goes for your interview to get hired at an agency and all modelling gigs you have.
  • Remember to keep your relationships professional but still develop relationships. Don’t date your photographers. But always be networking so you can reach out for help, mentoring, and jobs when you are looking to branch out. Photographers are the gateway to success. But don’t forget their assistants and the other people roaming around the shoot, too. Invaluable resources are everywhere you turn.
  • Don’t forget that it’s a real job. As with all jobs, your attitude, work ethic, abilities, and continued progression determine how far you will get in the modelling industry, whether you will get other jobs, and whether you might get fired.
  • Keep it together, mentally and in terms of organization. You have to know your schedule so you can accept gigs, even at the last minute.

Remember, becoming a model is a real job like any other, with ups and downs, and you’ve got to know how to work it!
