FASHION Design in Southern California?

I am currently in high school in PA (last place to be if your love the beach) and I'm going to college in North Carolina, because we also have another house down there and I can establish a residency and go for a cheaper price.
Now I've always dreamed about living in southern CA. Please dont lecture me about wildfires and earthquakes and insane prices of living, Im too young to go that far.
I want to work somewhere in fashion, either be a designer for a fashion merchandiser or work for a fashion magazine... I started a little jewelry business I have a website and business cards and everything... and that's pretty impressive for a 15-year-old. so maybe I could work off making that grow into something really big
I know for a fact that I can't just jump off the college band wagon and achieve this so no lectures about that either
Photography is my fallback, I could take pictures of the beach, or I could STILL work in fashion as a photographer-it comes naturally to me ...

ADVICE??

I work as a semi professional model, and I have had the pleasure to work with many talented photographers.
So that being said, I have met different types of photographers. Some went to school for it, some started still photographing and eventually got into fashion photography.
It takes a lot to be able to photograph people, especially in their best. But if you can start practicing now... I'm sure you will be great at it!

If you want to do the fashion world stuff, you can try to get an internship for vogue or any other famous fashion magazines... that would be a great start!
Good luck!

I had a friend start a jewelry business when she was 15 just like you. She is now 23 living in Chicago and selling her designs wholesale. And she is making a decent living at it.

It can be done, however, she was smart and attained a business degree from the University of Michigan. Just something to think on.
