You gotta get your self out there... send some of your stories to newspapers... and stuff
meet people who know people who know you... and help out your community like is there a newspaper or magazine you could volunteer for? even a store?

You really got to study journalism is school. See if your high school has a school paper or journalism club and become active in one or both of those. Start a fashion column in the school paper or try developing one on the Internet, where you'll get a lot of exposure. You might want to try contacting some of the magazine publishers in your area and tell them what you're trying to do. One of them might let you intern or co-op with them through your school as a way to get into the field and learn about it. Find some of your work that you think is good and send it to different fashion magazines. There always looking for staff writers. In college study fashion and journalism, which will give you a heads-up on everyone. Also, please don't forget to intern at a fashion magazine or any magazine. That's very important to have actual experience in the field.

pretty much you need to network. noone comes into those jobs by luck alone - you need to know people. In college study journalism or fashion, or both and try to get an internship while still in undergraduate school. thats the best thing you can do to help yourself - internship is huge. Go from there, good luck
