This is my final version of my CV, I added minor details to allow it to flow more and to make certain information stand out more. As when receiving feedback from individuals and lecturers they stated that my profile that explained a bit about me at the top (top paragraph) didn't stand out enough and in fact they skipped that paragraph and read it afterwards, which I wanted them to read it first. Therefore I highlighted the text in a pale grey to allow it to stand out from the lilac background.

Additionally the section where I display my skill's I hadn't made it clear how confident I was through the scores I gave myself with the squares, as I didn't state what it was out of such as 5.

I created a logo to go on my CV to allow it to be more visual and give it that personal touch.

I also used lilac as the colour to incorporate into it, as both my fashion blog and website are lilac. Therefore I wanted for it to be continuous and make it clear that it's all part of my work, creating brand awareness. 

I wanted to display my skills in a different way to make them stand out from the rest, to give it a bit more interest.

Therefore I created almost like a timeline to state my skills at the top and then within the boxes I elaborated the skill more. 

 

However I struggled to fit all of the skills in the white space of my CV, therefore it overlapped to the purple. This made it look a bit messy and not as clean and slick.

I adapted my CV to make it flow better visually, therefore I abandoned the feature that looked like a timeline and added the squares to show how confident I was in each software as well.

I also tried to make the top paragraph, my profile, stand out a bit more from all the other information. Therefore I made the font bigger and bolder.

As it was getting lost in the previous draft.
