A bit about robs



Heres a little about me to...

Im Robyn (a.k.a robs) and this is me chilling on the beach as a youngen, topping up my tan. I was born in june 1995, one day later than connie making me the same grand age of 17.

I am currently in 6th form studying textiles, business and psychology and although school is a major part of my life i cannot wait to finish and explore the world for myself. 

I have a great job working in a boutique in my home town selling some fab clothes! I do anything from dressing the mannequins to helping out with fashion shows and managing the shops publicity on social networking sites, it really is a dream job! From as young as i can remember i have always wanted to go into fashion and as a little kid i would be styling my teddy bears outfits to make sure they were on trend. I would love to go into the field of fashion buying and deciding what a store sells to its clients, plus the extra benefit of getting to travel all around the world. 

I can't really say i have a particular style but i sway more towards edgy things, with connie defiantly being the more girly one out of us both. I like things that are a bit different from what everyone else is wearing and never like to follow the crowd. Since my brothers have moved out i have slowly taken over their wardrobes making it a total of 3... i don't really know if this is a good thing or not!

A Bit About Connie :)



Hi,

I thought I should probably tell you a little something about myself. I'm Connie, this is me when i was a little tot! I was born in june '95 which makes me the grand age of 17.

At the moment i'm doing my last year of school, finally! I'm studing Textiles, Business and Performance studies. I adore textiles and its the lesson i will miss the most when i've finished school.

I work every saturday in a little shop which sells really cute home accesories and has great brands like Cath Kidston and Emma Bridgewater. I love working in retail even if it isnt clothes based which brings me nicely on to what i want to do when i'm older. I have always known i wanted to work in fashion but there are so so many routes to take. I like the idea of developing a brand and creating fashion shoots and runway shows. To be honest I will be happy doing most things fashion related!

I think i have a very girly style and i love anything vintage. I love a simple  piece which i accessorise to create my own look. Me and Robyn definitely know what suits each other and always pick pieces for each other to suit our different styles, however i'm always nicking things from Robyn's wardrobe!

Hope you feel you know me better :)

R&C Fashions has arrived!

Hi guys,

We are completely new to this so bare with us!

So one day we were having hot chocolate in cafe nero and we came up with the idea to start a blog. After picking up a mag we read an article about blogging, we had both consider it before but never had the motivation or confidence to do it by ourselves- two minds are better than one!

At the moment we are focusing on fashion but not ruling out anything for the future!We came up with the idea of R&C on a school trip to New York (an 8 hour flight stuck on a plane is a great place for brainstorming!). We have started on our first collection, which you will be hearing about very soon

We cant wait to get started!
