    Exemplars

    Natalie is 15, living in west London with her affluentparents in Notting Hill. She is in year 11 and

    spends most ofher break time on her art portfolio

    as she wants to get into art college. At the weekend

    she visits art galleries and museums with her small,close group of friends and captures the abstract

    beauty of London on her DSLR. She frequently

    browses through her local record stores, preferring

    vinyl to MP3s, and follows retro trends by reading

    online fashion blogs followed by visits to Camdenmarket. Currently, her favourite programme is My

    Mad Fat Diaryand films such as Django

    Unchained, but she also has a secret soft spot for

    classic musicals such as Singin in the Rain.
