A coffee with Sophie Milham

A coffee with Sophie Milham
Hi Sophie, welcome to the Lepelclub journal! We’re happy to have you here! Could you begin by introducing yourself?
Hey, thank you so much for having me! My name is Sophie, I am a newly graduated 21 year old working as a content creator for a luxury womenswear brand called Odd Muse London.

What does an average morning look like for you?
Ooh okay well an average morning for me will start around 6:30am, I start by planning my outfit for the day, skincare, get ready and then an immediate coffee. My go to breakfast at the minute is overnight oats so I will tend to have that whilst watching my current obsession, this month is Pretty Little Liars. Then I will walk to work whilst listening to a podcast or right now it's obviously sabrina carpenter on repeat.

We'd love to know a little more about your journey into social media and Odd Muse specifically?
So since I was about 13, when I got my first phone, I have always been the fashion girl. I was obsessed with everything youtube, watching people like Bethany Mota, Alisha Marie, Zoella, Victoria Magrath and so forth, ensuring I was always caught up on the trends of the late 2010s. Which I think really led me into my career today as I would plan photoshoots with my friends or even for school as I was a major Art and Drama student- as you probably could tell already. I then went on to study Fashion Styling and Production at UAL which I graduated from this July. I heard about this amazing job opportunity at Odd Muse actually from my sister who sent me my now boss, Aimee Smale's Instagram story that said she was looking for a full time social media girl. Now I was still in my second year of uni but I chose to apply anyway as I had a great feeling about this opportunity and basically went into the interview telling Aimee that I would quit uni for Odd Muse. Luckily my boss isn't crazy and said instead of you leaving uni, why don't you work part time instead and then perhaps in the future you can go full time once you have graduated...so that is exactly what I did.

We love watching Odd Muse’s socials, you guys know how to stir things up! Where do you get your inspiration?
Do you know what, a lot of my inspiration will just be through having conversations with Aimee either on text, on a flight to our next social shoot destination or in the office. As well as on a shoot when an idea might come to us either from a reaction we get from the public or a song that pops into our head which we then create a whole music video production to.

That leads us into our favorite question here at Lepelclub, how do you drink your coffee?
Always an oat cappuccino. Don't get me wrong, I can go for an iced oat latte in the afternoon but first thing in the morning, I need a hot coffee. I even bought myself and my boss matching t-shirts that say oat cappuccino on it because we love them THAT much.

At Lepelclub, we enjoy unwinding with a coffee or cocktail. How do you like to relax after a busy day at work?
Okay so there are two ways I will wind down after work. I will either go to my favourite workout class which is called Bounce, please if you don't know what that is, you have to google it! It is the most fun you will have whilst working out, I promise you. Which will then be followed by a home cooked meal as I love cooking anything from prawn tacos to a butternut squash mac & cheese (basically anything Emily English makes). However, I also love going into London during the week with my friends and trying out new restaurants, tasting spicy margs and having a yap. Both are equally good for the mind after work x

And finally, how do you hope to stir things up in the future?
Well there are so many exciting things coming to Odd Muse in the last quarter of the year! Unfortunately I can't give any hints as I'm not the boss and don't want to get fired but all i say is that we are growing quickly. I'm looking forward to meeting so many new muses and I'm excited for new people to get to know this amazing brand.
