Fighting in style


Uh, architects. One thing I admire in my uni (I wonder how many times I'll say this) is that people have effortless style. Messy hair can be style. Wearing pajamas outside can be style. As long as you do it with integrity and not to show off.
Anyway, the thing I like the most about their style is basic colours(green, blue, black) combined with relaxed forms, and, as I already said, effortless.

Discoveries


I discovered this place, while on a short trip to Athens. It's called "Paloma Negra" and it is a
tiny jewellery shop near the Athens concert hall (Μέγαρο Μουσικής). Not only was the merchandise amazing, the shop was also beautiful and serene...I bought the frida earrings you see below. (I'll find the name of the designer soon, I promise)

Carnival

As I said, I will keep you tuned. But I'd rather tell you the backstage stories. Cause, unlike the tarty, cheap-looking costumes I told you about before, there are some really fantastic out there.

Chaos and uproar

Candy For Witches

On a rainy day, looking for a way to go home less than soaked, I found this amazing shop. It's name : candy for witches (ζαχαρωτά για μάγισσες, in Greek) and it contains unique Greek designer clothing and jewellery. I ended up talking with the owner about polaroids and buying an Akira Mushi cardigan, which you'll see soon. For now I'll let the pictures talk in my place

Project Carnival

Who's even realized that it's February??Not me. And now it's carnival season.
Whoever says that carnival is just for kids is a big fool. Carnival means fun for everybody.
On the other side, the way that carnival is held in my city is kinda disturbing. Chaos, smelly food, sexy-tarty-cheap looking-expensive costumes. But I am a romantic and still think of the good things about carnival. Coloura, having fun with your friends and of course dressing up. This year I'm making my own costume. Its name : :Black Widow".

This is just a preview

I'll probably be posting a lot on carnival, so stay tuned :p

Christina


What can I say? Nice day, nice girl. She was all about her new boots, but strange me wanted her to look away and be part of the scenery. She definitely achieved it.

Latin night at Notos


Last night I visited this amazing little bar, Notos (meaning "South" in Greek). It has the ambiance of a milonga: dark red walls, black and white pictures, wooden couches and amazing lamps. We had a grrreat time!!

Fashion Icon



Lately, I'm having a preference for this lady right here:



Eddie Sedgwick was Andy Warhol's muse, with unique style and a maany problems, which I think anyone can sympathise with. She had this quality. I mean, she wore leotards and tights outside cause she was bored to change clothes after jazz ballet and it became a trend. It was all about her, not the clothes. Rarely find this today...
