Fashion's Night Out

ALSO, I worked the Fashion's Night Event at West Town Mall (my previous internship was through the mall.)  It was the first event of it's type in Knoxville, to my knowledge, and it was awesome. There was a red carpet, VIP lounge, swag bags, giveaways, free champagne and chocolate, and live models throughout the mall.  Talk about an event. 

As soon as pictures are up I'll be sure to share!

This post is a few days backlogged, so even though I'm writing about my internship today, I promise this is not what I actually wore to work!  

So just a recap, I work the first part of the week at the summer job/internship I had last year, and Thursday and Friday I work at my new job- as a marketing intern with Simon malls!  Back in February I made the decision that I really wanted to work in retail marketing this summer- even if it meant taking a low or no paying internship.  My career coordinator at school made a few phone calls and sent my resume off, and suddenly I had an offer from the two Simon malls in my hometown :)  

I never actually interviewed or met with the staff beforehand, so I was a little bit nervous for my first day.  Luckily, the whole staff is SO nice.  I get to work with both the Assistant Director and Director of Marketing.  Since they are Area positions, they work at both of the Knoxville Simon Malls.  I was kind of expecting to get assigned the least exciting jobs and tasks- but I was so far from wrong!  My first day they set me up with the entire social media suite- so if you follow Knoxville Center or West Town Mall on facebook or twitter, that's me!  I also get to help out with all of their mall events- including a back to school fashion show and Fashion Night Out!  

What are you all doing during the summer?  Any other fun jobs/internships?
