My goodness it's been a long time since I've updated this beloved blog, BUT I promise I have a good explanation for it - no really. I Shara Johnson have spent the past couple of months being a stylist assistant to Celebrity Stylist Alexis Knox - POW!
I must say I am completely loving the experience and have learnt so much in such a short space of time, from doing every day tasks such as pickups, returns and logging in samples, to assisting on the set of Craig David Music videos, going to press appointments, and more recently getting to assist backstage at X - Factor for the Craig David performance of his new single 'Change My Love'
X Factor Stage - Movie Week
Going to X Factor was particularly exciting for me because I was finally getting to experience first hand how one of the biggest entertainment shows are produced, and how much needs to be taken into consideration when styling an outfit for TV, such as: sitting through sound check to see how the outfit will looking against the lighting, or choosing the right print or the right style of shoe for TV.

Backstage as you can imagine was a good kind of hectic and an excited atmosphere all round. There were people with ring lights, microphones, photographers, people being interviewed and getting glammed up all in preparation for count down to showtime.
Sound Check
All in all it was a great evening, its not every day you get to go to X factor let alone go back stage. I am a true believer in that great things will happen when preparation meets opportunity, and I am certainly grabbing all the opportunities coming my way with both hands and giving it my best.
Until next time guys I shall see you soon with another update on what I've been doing - mwahh xx :)
