I can tell about the job I did Tuesday. I had a job Tuesday for Zara, it’s another company but I dont knwo what they do actauly but they organize some activities for some brand. This company asked me to do the styling for some KOL’s and some Chinese stars. So this activity was in Wednesday so I needed to do the match before so I went Zara’s showroom for styling the KOL’s the Tuesday. I met a lot of KOL’s who I appreciated a lot because I know them before. I saw always beautiful pictures at internet. I took pictures with them and also with the star, one of the star he is very famous now and he is very handsome so when I did the styling for him I was a little bit shy. Many of my friends like him so I asked some signatures for them.
