I want her job. Phillip lim is amazing, and so my style. Too bad there are no internship opportunities in Alaska.

How did she get an internship at 14?! I need to know please!!!

you suck colby

[Iheartnihon]

I know I have to work 10x harder than you...(sorrie, I have to vent)

I love fashion but I feel like if you don't have the typical look (white, with long hair or some edgy hair cut) or the money to afford a gareth pugh jacket and dress like that on a daily basis at your intership, they don't care two craps about you. It seems like she got it easy and didn't even have to put her foot in the door, someone already open the door for her.

It pisses me off and makes me more reclusive to even try

I do not believe she's 15. She looks like shes 20

jesus crist did she say she was in grade 10?

and she is the typicall intern you just want to slap!!

To those of you looking for fashion internships... don't be hard on yourselves.There's a reason why girls like this get amazing jobs at such a young age. Colby is a friend of a friend, and I've met her. Her family is very rich and well-connected, which is how she landed this job as well as her Teen Vogue internship. Don't worry, you can make it without initial connections. It's a lot harder, but in the end, you can be proud of your accomplishments because you actually put in the hard work!

@darbydancer10 she probably got it from connections.

@lightyagami2294 Yeah I hate it that peopole who are rich or have friends who have connections w/ major designers have oppertunities like this handed to them. If they work hard and do amazing things, like Anna Wintour for example, that's fine. But if they don't, it sucks for the people who have to do the dirty work and wait until 5-10 years or so just to achieve her internship that she started at 15 years old. I'm not bashing Colby in any way, shape, or form, but it just really frusterates me!

[lightyagami2294]

@6524dancer she does... she goes to my school and her family is super rich... she's lucky

[6524dancer]

So jealous!!!!!!!! It's great that she's diving into the industry so early! She must have good connections to land an internship like that.
