Walking The Line

“If I could do anything I wanted to do, I’d most definitely make a living out of attending concerts and festivals,” Angela says, and while she knows that might not really be a possibility in the near future, she’s happy to be working where she is now. “I have always wanted to be in PR, so I don’t really want to be doing anything else.” It helps that her industry is a bit more relaxed about formal work wear. “I’m pretty lucky,” she says. “My wardrobe’s quite colourful. I wear a lot of prints, and I usually add a funky jacket to complete the look. I can get away with wearing a bright green jacket to work and for client meetings.” Beyond work, Angela says she spends “an inordinate amount of time” on music and films. Another surprising quirk? “I can shuffle in heels.” On tough days, Angela’s reminder to herself is simple: this too shall pass. “Every sad thing that happens now won’t last, and the happy things don’t either. I try to be as happy as I can be at any particular moment, and try not to sweat the small stuff.”
