S (C) A N D A L ...

It's been a while since the last time I posted & I don't have the tinniest bit of regret, since I spent one more blissful weekend in Myconos, along with friends.
The programme included sunbathing, bathing, eating (lots and lots), and just up to the moment I was about to ensure myself that this was my shopping rehab, check out what I discovered in a shop by the sea...
The store was full of bathing suits, beach tunics, bags glasses...yet all I could see were those gladiators, and the shoes...oh the shoes! For a moment I though of grabbing the sandal-basket in the picture above, and run. I didn't. Then I thought of buying one pair, but again...one pair? unable how I was to point my favorite, a pair wouldn't do. Finally I decided to see it as an artwork which will be ruined if I remove one of its pieces and I didn't even ask what the price was...after all, I was in Luisa beach, what are the chances they were affordable??
Eurovision fuss healed my desperation till the next morning when I paid a visit to a to touristic shop selling flip flops exclusively.
I am not really a flip-flop person. Besides havaianas, I prefer foot-holding shoes.
I decided though to make an exception since those are so famous.
Anti-shopaholism God put his hand once more and the price of the ones I picked (the only ones I liked, in neon green) was 70,00 euros! 70,00 euros for something I don't quite like? for a souvenir? NO! I wouldn't do that to myself. I recently bought a pair of BCBG sandals (upcoming post) costing 89,00 euros, I wouldn't spend 70 on a pair of boring flip-flops. (proud of myself).
Meanwhile, June's Glamour is out! I already got it and although the article on Greek bloggers is great, I was in total shock when I saw my face in there.
Coming up with manyx2 island-outfit posts since I made sure (actually someone else did...*thanx*) I have a photo of each one.

Work-it out!

Isn't it weird how in my previous post I am wearing this chunky cardigan, and in this one legs and toes are out in the open?
Turns out...God listened to my prays!
This summerish uniform is a proof of how I am "working" on my summerish outfits!

(Me trying to resist eating my yummy wallet!)

Plus, I can even describe how inappropriately excited I got when I discovered that I share this unbelievably romantic shirt I bought last Christmas, with gorgeous+talented+famous: TOLYBANHBAO!
Lopi dearest,

Now I feel to my spine why you reacted like that, when seeing Alix from Cherry Blossom wearing your skirt!!!

+ my 2 favorite boards from the 7ply project

I am a graphic freak after all...

uniform: OYSHO, shirt: ZARA, gladiators: Nine West

Streetgeist-ED!!!!


Who's on Streetgeist?
I am on Streetgeist!!! (thrilled face)

I've been visiting this blog ever since its photos were really small!
Now the photos are huge, equivalent to the talent & ideas of Streetgeist's "parents" Alkisti&Aris, AND I AM IN ONE OF THEM (yey!).


As
previously mentioned, I met the guys in a Glamour's photo shoot, and besides they turned up being so nice, with rocking personalities, and ridiculously young-looking, I almost peed in my pants when Lopi proposed to have my photo taken for their blog & Alkisti nodded positively (...tryied to play it cool though, and here's the place I may share my excitement!).

Now I am seriously thinking to copy fashion architect in plasing the photo permenately to the side of my blog... :P



P.S: Thank ya Lopi for the backstage material...!!!
P.S2: Thank ya guys!

The one with the boring clothes.

I've been in a passionate relationship with that long Zara cardigan lately.
I don't seem to be in the mood to wear something dressier, weather is not on my side anyways, so I stick to that garment, in which I feel neither hot nor cold (a bit boring maybe...).

Long cardigan: Zara, T-dress: H&M, spandex tights:AA, bracelet: sugarfree

NOTE TO GOD: Please dear God, tell the sun to pass by Greece and stick around for summer vacations, dont let the money spent on summer clothes end-up being a total waste...!
p.s: I also want 1.000.000 euros, a car, and a TOPSHOP retail in Greece, just keep it in mind...

15 minutes...

A while ago, a magazine's editor contact me.
That editor was Amalia Agathou, the magazine was Glamour, and I cant even describe how excited I got for the up-coming article on Greek fashion bloggers (YEY).
As soon as I found out, that I didn't just have to answer some questions by e-mail, but I had to visit their headquarters, for a photo-shoot, the previous mentioned excitement disappeared, and stress along with an extra dose of shyness, took over.
Turns out it was a false alarm (for stress!...shyness has camped in me, years ago), cause those magazine people were extremely sweet and helpful, even if a was lost in a clothe-paradise, where my mind stopped and I couldn't decide upon what to wear in the picture (I kept on recycling the thought "OMG I am in a fashion magazine" while I was going through the clothes mechanically).
glamour's clothe stash, the funky offices, and the sweetest editor: Amalia Agathou.

Yet the surprise of the day had nothing to do with Glamour.
Yesterday I've been given the chance to meet people who have been rocking my world without them knowing.

Pinelopi: from Fashion Architect, Aris & Alkistis: from Streetgeist, Alecca Rox, and Hari from Soho Symposium...it was EXTREMELY nice to meet you guys!!!
+ Aris, Alkistis, & Pinelopi...thanx for the ride *back to civilisation*

Blooming-tales!

What are you supposed to do when it's first of May and most people you know are in Berlin watching a basketball game?

Here's what I did:
  1. Went in my terrace, wearing shorts, my new sandals, and glasses!
  2. Caught some sun, & made my dog pose with PINK flowers!
  3. Took pictures to share my day with fellow bloggers!
....still missing those people in Berlin though!

shirt: Massimo Dutti, shorts: ZARA, sandals: ZARA, glasses: RayBan
Oh and I was listening to La Roux!
If my friend Xazidou ever find out about this blog I have to admit: I do have the same taste in music with the future "X"!!!

YES club-MASTER!

The moment I discovered this vintage-shop in Athens selling glasses exclusively, I stopped looking for branded glasses, which are way too expensive if you wanna have a variety of them.
The only brand I seem not to be able to leave-behind is RayBan.
I have a collection including several kinds and colors of aviators and wayfarers.
Yet the moment I saw Ed Westwick wearing the new -clumaster- RayBan model, I couldn't wait until to bring that baby home
(glasses not Ed, ehhm maybe Ed too :P).
In the store I tryied all possible colors, I ended-up buying the white ones.
Dont know why, it just seemed like the right choise to me.



sweater: American vintage, tunic: ZARA, eel tights: American apparel, flats: FengShoe, bag: Jocasi.
