Fairwell from Miss FVB 2013 - Off to Thailand

Hello everyone,

I hope you all will excuse this very delayed post. The past weeks have been hectic and, as I’m sure every individual appreciate, life isn’t just glamorous. I’ve now moved out and am about to leave the UK to do several months of volunteering. With that, I’m writing this post as my goodbye to the Miss Fashion vs Beauty family and its faithful audiences.

The day I won Miss Fashion vs Beauty overall winner 2013 I posted a post saying ‘Have you ever had a moment you could say that’s when everything changed?’ and that moment truly was it for me. I’ve met so many nice people both through networking and events, I’ve had many opportunities coming my way whether or not I could take them because of my masters, and I’ve had the chance to support many important causes. What has been my proudest achievement is starting the nobodyshame campaign for this year’s competition with Miss FvB’s beloved director. Unfortunately, due to time limitations I could not take it as far as I wished to take it during the last weeks before the competition. However, that being said, I was immensely proud when interviewing the 2014 participants and many of them would refer to the #nobodyshame when describing what they liked the most about this unique pageant competition. To emphasize that Miss FvB is against body shaming and show our support to nobodyshame was the ultimate objective of the campaign so I’m pleased that came through. I hope Miss Fashion vs Beauty 2014 will pick on from where I will be leaving the campaign this year and to make it even grander for next year.

I thank you all for the memories and wish you a pleasant year in my absence!
 
 

Director sign off:

Thanks so much Christina for being such a great queen. You have represented your crown very well over the past year. Running campaigns and promoting many different charities. I have learnt a great deal from you, about PR and marketing. Wishing you all the best in Thailand. I know that you will make a great difference helping out at the children's orphanage. We will look forward to lot's of pictures of your trip.

Over of period of weeks Miss Fashion Vs Beauty contestants have been doing a lot of charity work. Our beautiful/ savvy ladies have been selling bracelets, doing welly walks, bag packing,
nail-a-thon's you name it. This is all for a great cause. That cause being Bobath Wales (@BobathWales). Bobath Wales make a real difference to children with cerebral palsy. We want to help them reach fundraising targets to help improve the lives of those in need. As the director of Miss Fashion Vs Beauty, I actively encourage all contestants to take part in fundraising. This not only helps to improve self confidence but also helps contestants to bond before the grand finals. The contestant who will raise the most funds for Bobath Wales wins Miss Charity 2014. Winning this fantastic title also comes with 7 Nights Free accommodation in beautiful Altinkum, Turkey. ( Flights excluded). Sleeps 2 people. Who will be crowned Miss Charity 2014?.
