Here is everything you need to know about me!
Hi!
I’m Bea, a 23-year-old Italian living in London, currently pursuing my Master’s in Luxury Brand Strategy and Business at Vogue College of Fashion. Having lived in eight different countries—Italy, Poland, Dubai, Lebanon, Thailand, France, the Netherlands, and the UK—I’ve been fortunate to experience a rich variety of cultures, which has deeply shaped my perspective on fashion, business, and the world around me.
My love for fashion started young—I used to spend hours sketching designs in my Top Model notebooks, dreaming up collections that would one day make it to the runway (though my drawings never quite improved, so I eventually left that to the professionals). I was captivated by the energy of runway shows, and as I grew older – and taking Business HL in the IB – analyzing every collection from the fabrics to the marketing strategies behind them.
I obsessively bought Vogue and Vanity Fair, first to look at the amazing clothes and colors which would let me imagination run wild as a child, then to understand how brands positioned themselves, how luxury houses crafted their storytelling, and how consumer trends evolved over time. Fashion has always been more than just clothing to me; it’s a language, a reflection of culture, and a powerful form of storytelling.
For years I have wanted to share my knowledge and skills with the world. In 2021, after countless friends and acquaintances encouraging me to put my thoughts into writing, I finally took the plunge and launched iwanteditfirsrt. I’ve always had strong opinions and a passion for engaging storytelling, and this space allows me to channel that energy—researching, analyzing, and discussing topics that matter, from fashion trends to travel and wellness; all the elements of a rounded life (in my opinion ofcourse).
Creativity is at the core of everything I do, and this blog is my way of exploring and refining that skill while staying connected to the ever-evolving fashion industry. My days always begin with reading the news, flipping through magazines, and soaking up as much information as possible—fashion, business, culture—anything that broadens my perspective.
Thanks to my diverse background and international experiences, I’ve developed a unique lens through which I view fashion—not just as an aesthetic industry, but as a dynamic force shaped by culture, history, and economic trends. This blog is my way of sharing those insights, sparking conversations, and continuing to learn along the way.
I invite you to explore my site, learn about my passions, and explore what excites you. We will enter this world together… one step at a time.
