"OMG I cant wait!" I exclaim.

Ok maybe I should introduce myself, my name is Corrine. I absolutely LOVE fashion and I especially love reading Vogue. I'm 16 and I have just taken my GCSES and I'm getting back my results. I'm really nervous but hopefully they'll be positive.

"Yeah me to!" says Lidia. She's my best friend in the world. We have only known eachover since we've started secondary school but it feels like a lifetime.

We finally we reach the gates and suddenly panic consumes me but Lidia hugs me consoling me telling me everything will be fine.

As we walk into the hall we see soo many different emotions. There are three different characteristics. Some look at their envelopes absolutely ecstatic whereas others are screaming swearing at teachers saying it was all their fault and the really quite person crying in the corner all by themselves.

Anyhoo...

As we strut over too the reception and pick up my envelope my hands are trembling and my whole body is acting as if i was just inside an ice cube. I open out an envelope... Tears overwhelm me.

"Aw I'm sure you didn't do that bad..." Lidia says as she looks at my letter. "OMG!!! You got a 9+ in Textiles and a 9 in English!" She exclaims, "but why are you crying then?" Lidia Questions.

"Who says these were sad tears. IM SO HAPPY!!!" I shout. Everyone stairs at me. Maybe I should've been I little quieter. Hehe.

" I think this calls for celebratory shopping!" I announce.

"You say that every week," Lidia replies raising her right eyebrow. Eh maybe that's a little but true. What can I say I'm a shopaholic.

"Well this calls for GCSE celebratory shopping. And obviously all shopping is brilliant because its celebrating new clothes and cosmetics. I think that's something to be happy about. Wait let me rephrase that. It is something to be happy about!" I reply. And after that my new life begins.

In New Look I absolutely LOVE their new SS16 collection. There so many cute floral and lace prints. It is literally spring shopping heaven. I turn my head and see the he most beautiful dress in world. Instantly I leg it to the dress. But oh no, I another girl has seen it too. I increase my pace I have to get that dress. We are both nearing the magnificent dress when she trips over. Haha. That's what you get for wearing those incredibly beautiful golden strappy wedges in a shop. (Mental Note: Ask her where she got them from.) But then I guess karma is true when I bumb straight into the dress. And the wall. I'm not even kidding but I think I have one of those bumbs which Tom from Tom & Jerry would get. But almost Instantly all the pain flues out of my body. I gracefully pick it up, check the size, and rush over to Lidia who is currently looking at this realm nice pair or patent leather loafers with tassels.

"OMG. This dress is amazing," I say to. Lidia. She turns around clearly not interested until she sees the dress, her mouth drops so far I'm surprised that there isn't a whole in the ground. As I tell her about the sheer beauty of the dress with the chiffon pleated skirt and the absolutely amazing pintuck detailing at the front and not to mention the beautiful lace detailing in the 3/4 length sleeves, but I feel like there is something missing. Shoes. How could I forget shoes. I scan my wardrobe in my head trying to think of any shoes suitable, then I remember that girl who wanted the dress. Then I remember her shoes.

"Lidia, can you hold this for a second," I say whilst a trial of to find that girl. I had been wandering around aimlessly in the shop until I see her looking in the shoe section. Maybe I picked a few things on the way. Hehe.

"Umm. Excuse me," I ask politely. She turns and looks at me and realising that I laughed at her when she fell over. I'm sorry but It was funny. Can't blame a girl for having emotions. I shake of the worry and continue: "I'm really sorry you didn't get the dress, but instead I've picked up a top for you which looks very similar."

Suddenly interested she turns and nods.

"Ohh that's really nice." She says whilst she feels the chiffon. But then sighs, "you really didn't have to do that." She replies.

"I did I really did. I felt bad for laughing at you and since you couldn't get dress I tried to look for an alternative. And I'm bought one for myself." I say shaking my bag. "But what I really want to know is, where did you get your shoes from?" I question really I intrigued for an answer.

"OMG thanks, I got them from Kurt Geiger. I would say the name but I bought them ages so I don't know if there still online. Sorry, hope that helps. Thanks for top you have brilliant taste." She says as she waves and carries on browsing.

I walk back over to Lidia who has now made her decision for the shows. "since I'm feeling very very happy I decided I'd go for these patent leathers loafers and these suede loafers and a load of clothes" Lidia says happy with her finds. We both walk other to the counter struggling to carry all of our clothes.

"I'm so proud of you guys!" me and Lidia's mum said in unison They were best friends as well so it all worked out. We were sitting in costa drinking medium hot chocolates with triple chocolate muffins.

Once the waitress had taken our plates away, Cindy (my mum) and Liberty (Lidia's mum) smiled at each over.

Both eager to find out what was going on we looked at them intensely.

"You're going to New York Fashion Week!!!" They blurt out. Feeling the enthusiasm me and Lidia scream so heard I'm surprised the windows are still stable.

" Were going to New York Fashion Week. Were going to New York Fashion Week!!! WERE GOING TO NEW YORK FASHION WEEK!!!!!" We shout so hard I can believe were not kicked out yet.
