it's all about the details

I developped my first film myself (with lots of guidance from the Photography crew, I admit). A Tmax expired in 2006, which is probably the reason of the sepia tones present in some of the pictures. Even though I forgot to remove the water from the film in the end and died over photoshop to remove the drops, what can I say...me likey!

In situations like this...

Well, once upon a time, I had some friends fighting in my house. And I had an event to attend. And I decided to leave them in my house and go. So they asked: "Do you have a reason to go out or are you leaving us alone?".I looked at my outfit and said: "Would I dress up like this if I were to just leave you alone?". And they said"Oh wouldn't you?"


...well...they're right.

Weekend

I had a grrrRRrrreat weekend. BF's birthday party, my favorite japanese food and an opportunity to try on my new knee high socks. The pictures will talk for me


me + chopsticks + the earrings my mom gave me. They're from a boutique in Gkazi called "sunapeiro"

Seafood ramen from Wagamama
Bfs with balloons
Ice for our cocktails
The road home

I hope you had a nice weekend too!

After the rain

This cuban cigar was the only survivor on the day with the worst weather forecast. We could still smoke it under the heavy rain.


Ps. I know I haven't posted anything about fashion in a while, but I don't think it' s gonna last that long. It is the season of wellies after all...

Revolt festival 2010

Hell of a way to start the academic year (and I mean it in a positive way). Well, last weekend, I had an exhibition and was the oficial photographer of Revolt festival 2010. It was a great experience. The exhibition was called "One man show"and included photos like this:



And this is my favorite scene from the concerts:


Maraveyas ilegal has an amazing orchestra. See you soon enough!

The holidays are over....

and I've changed houses, still no web and I can only look at photos like this and yearn for the next vacation

shot by lomo spinner 360 on kodak TX

You spin me right round...

Regardless of the title, today I want to present you my new camera... ... ... the lomography Spinner 360°.

That's what it looks like.a little camera on a big handle. Now the genious part is the way it functions. You have to hold it in one hand and pull the string that's on the handle with the other. Release it and the camera will do a full 360 spin, capturing whatever's on it's way. Killer detail : the dolphin on the camera's top.

+-- FAIR PLAY --+ 10 euro SALES VINTAGE MARKET

Let's get to part two then. Yesterday night I went to holy mustaches bazaar in TORA K44. Who wouldn't be interested by a large choice of vintage clothes anyway?



I'm out of words right now. But I'll just say I had a fun time. And shorts and a skirt. I guess it's time for me to stop buying things...

PS: the last picture!!!!

Aunty

The title sure looks strange but it's part one of my great discoveries of the day.
So let's get to the main subject. A few months ago, dear Sandy Kay Forkinidio (here's her Flickr) sent me a review of boutique theia in the center of Athens, a place with retro looking corsets. And having time on my hands (and a car, actually) I went looking.





Here's what I found. A little shop that's forgotten time and looks chic and nostalgic. The corsets are handmade (and so is the rest of the clothing) and the lines flattering. Oh, and if you see the swimming cap lookalikes in the last picture, they're actually clutches. And I got one in colour peach.har har har :p

Summer in the city

So, until the time comes for me to go to a lovely Greek island (Skiathos) I'm stuck in Athens. Still, I'm in summer mood. Wearing :

Big chunky necklaces


Shiny nail polish



Prints



This year, my most expected summer buy was a maxi dress, multi-coloured and comfortable. A dress I could wear all day every day.

dress from Accessorize
necklace from a magazine I bought years ago
nail polish from Sephora
