Today, you can educate yourself in many ways. That’s what I love from the online world. You can google whatever and know everything about anything you want. There are many resources out there to train yourself and I think a mix of all of these is a great balance to stay updated, be knowledgeable about topics and not too bored. Because mixing audio, books and videos can be a fantastic learning experience and you won’t get bored doing the same thing. Also, timing is another big factor. We don’t have time today, so we need to make the most of it.
I’m a control freak person, so I try to make the most out of my time. I like doing more than one thing at a time, so if I’m cooking or cleaning the apartment or driving, you’ll mostly find me listening to podcasts, while if I have more time, at bed before sleeping or I’m on a plane, you’ll find me reading a book.
Some weeks ago I suggested you the best fashion Marketing and Fashion Business books and today I want to focus on precious fashion youtube videos (here you can find our favorite fashion documentaries). I love watching videos because you won’t only learn the stories of fashion companies and fashion professionals, but by watching you can have a look at the offices and other fashion places to have a clearer idea of what does working in fashion looks like.
Most of these videos are a bit long, so you can watch them at night as you’re watching a Netflix episode 😉 but they are all very informative and inspiring and I’m sure you’ll learn so much from them. Enjoy them.

Of course, I couldn’t not include the full series of British Vogue with Alexa Chung who interviews designers and fashion professionals to know more about what’s behind the fashion industry and how to get a job in fashion.
This video is a documentary of Karl Lagerfeld, so if you want to know more about this iconic designer, get comfortable on your sofa and enjoy it
