As someone who has worked from home, both as a freelancer and working in a full time job, I can truly put my hand on my heart and say that I absolutely love to work from home in lockdown. You have to be mindful that whether you are working on your own business, have freelance clients, or are employed, but working from home, you need to be firm about the hours you work, and the work that you take on. Although we can chat virtually on Skype, Zoom, Teams or have a phone call, it’s not the same as making time to hang out with friends outside of work, in person, and be able to truly disconnect from your ‘home life’. As long as you are finding a small amount of time in your day, to connect with loved ones, you can feel like you are taking proactive measures to counteract those isolating feelings that you have been having.

After all, it takes 70% less energy and water to ‘recycle paper’ than to create new paper from trees, which is damaging to Mother Nature. Whether you create a ‘paperless office’, reduce your paper footprint and transition to a ‘digital way of working’, using cloud solutions such as Dropbox, Outlook and Microsoft Office, saves time and money and improves organization. Working from home as an SME is a step in the right direction, and you can not only improve air pollution, decrease emissions and energy consumption, but you can also decrease paper waste and achieve a better work-life balance. You can use rain water, waste water or grey water, and clean it, before returning it for use in industrial operations.

There would be Zoom games, and online games, card games, and board games, she’d journey into gamingville, where the virtual games would come alive, and spark true love during the pandemic. To Get The Party Started Ana and her partner always loved finding the quirkiest and most exciting bars on their date nights, so it should come as no surprise that their idea of a fun virtual game night involved drinking games to get the party started. Two quirky souls came together that night in hopeless abandon, playing board games, card games and video games in rapid, competitive succession. During the first lockdown, where they were unable to see each other for months on end, Ana discovered PlayingCards.io, a magnificient synchronized playspace, where they had access to free card and board games that they could play online, without meeting face to face.

You might find it hard to create a CV that captures the essence of who you are as a budding fashion employee, might not know how to format your CV, and if you have less experience, might be flummoxed as to what you would need to say or do, to make your CV stand out when other employees have more experience. Let’s say that you have three projects that you have uploaded, one that outlines your freelance management of fashion brand’s social media, one which shows a fashion week after party that you helped put together for leading reporters, content creators and fashionistas and the other is for your input in a brand’s This works in your favour because your next job role might involve you working on blog and social media content, thus developing a strong social media strategy. And it’s the same in any fashion job that you take in; although working smarter as opposed to harder is the right way to work to the best of your ability without burn out, at the same time, the more that you put into your job, the more you will receive in the long run.
