all you need is style

Downtown Athens, 01.17.15

Posted on January 17, 2015 | 3 comments

I am a sucker for the tiniest bit of colorful art and Downtown Athens is full of it. Put one and one together and voilà, you can always find me in front of a vibrant graffiti or a kaleidoscopic drawing.

I am also a sucker for bomber jackets, the more Grease-like the better. So this brand new H&M lilac piece was a very welcome addition to my closet, that I plan on wearing a lot. Purple tones are apparently having a comeback so get your lavender s*it together before its too late.

Mauve painted nails get extra points.

Wearing bomber jacket H&M (an embellished version here, a baseball version here), sleeveless knit Zara, jeans H&M, Dunk SKY sneakers Nike, pearl headband Zara (on sale), leather bag Reiss (a nice alternative here)

Walking Rainbow

Posted on January 16, 2015 | 3 comments

A friend of mine told me I should dress in all black.

This is my answer.

Rainbow yeti spotted in downtown Athens, taking pictures of anything combining more than 3 colors, seeing everything pink (like the rest 6 days of the week) and enjoying THAT Greek sun (magic country much?). Did a little bit of shopping too to help with the mood cramps. ;)

It worked.

Wearing this (pretty awesome) Asos faux fur, skinny jeans, Pull & Bear fringed leather sneakers (a similar white version here), Wildfox mirrored sunglasses, long sweater, Unicorn iPhone case

Fighting Falcon 16

Posted on January 14, 2015 | 1 comment

You know you’re fly when you watch action movies and daydream about being an Air Force pilot. You know you’re superfly when you manage to buy a vintage F16 yourself and casually park it on your front lawn. For everyone to see.

Being nowhere near fly or superfly myself, the least I could do was take a bunch of pics and go back to watching Top Gun.

Mission Accomplished.

Wearing a leopard faux fur from Topshop (similar here and here), G Star Raw sweater, boyfriend jeans, Adidas Superstar sneakers, Asos flower sunglasses (that you can easily DIY)

The cute watch is by Daniel Wellington and you can purchase yours with a 15% discount using the code allyouneedisstyle (valid until February 15th)

Staying In (again)

Posted on January 8, 2015 | Leave a comment

Well, isn’t this fun?

Staying in, I mean. Although I did take a quick trip to the nearby kiosk for mandatory refuelling (chocolates, magazines and flavored water) I’ve become a proper house cat. And I’m a proud one.

As the list of book gets shorter, I become happier (and wiser) and I’m rediscovering all that loungewear I’ve kept hidden in drawers that can actually be worn outside as well. It would look pretty nice too.

The house is full of hidden treasures.

And unfortunately sugary treats in equal amount.

Igloo Weather

Posted on January 5, 2015 | 1 comment

When a male penguin falls in love with a female penguin, he searches the entire beach to find the perfect pebble to present to her. When he finally finds it, he waddles over and places the pebble right in front of her. If the pebble is accepted they are mates for life.

Let’s waddle together, flipper in flipper.

2014 in Outfit Posts

Posted on January 3, 2015 | Leave a comment

2014.

What a year. Spent half of it on the other side of the world, a place that became my second home, my favorite place on earth. Could never imagine I would actually make it into reality although I did dream of it. Quite often.

On the sartorial side, I could have just gone there with a pair of ripped denim shorts, flip flops and a white tee. It could have suffice. This statement LA outfit can actually get you everywhere and although you probably know by now how much I love clothes, I was happy as a clam. Maybe less is more after all.

It’s never about the outfits anyway. It’s about the background of the photo aka the place you are at any given moment, the minute in time and your coordinates on this earth that really makes the difference.

So may the next year bring more colourful surroundings and interesting backdrops and I wouldn’t even care posing naked in front of them.

Cheers to the new.

PS There are a bunch of unpublished posts from La La Land that I’ve been dying to show you (coming soon) plus the everyday #ootd s if you think you didn’t have enough:

Staying Home

Posted on January 3, 2015 | Leave a comment

I’ve got a thing for cocooning and I’ve got a thing for lingerie. So when I stay home (which is pretty often) I take great pleasure in enjoying my special indoors. I have a great selection of books I’m dying to read and don’t find the time (from Henry Miller to Forensic Psychology and from Nabokov to Tibetan Yoga and the Secret Doctrines) and an even greater selection of masks, scrubs and whatnots that my skin is dying to try.

So with the help of a large cup of SWEET LOVE Kusmi tea and some wicked tunes, I combine both and I’m way thankful the day after.

Going out is so 2014.

Nilaya Mystic Spa

Every once in a while, there comes a day when it’s all about YOU.

After all there’s no one more important than yourself. And what’s more appropriate than a little special something for that person?

I’m talking gold leaf massages, relaxing hamam sessions, sparkly mani/pedis and rejuvenating face masks. I tried the Golden Glam Massage, the Golden Glam Face & Golden Glam Beauty rituals with equal amounts of awesomeness respectively aka gold leaves, ginger and silk for toning, rejuvenating and energising the skin. As for the mask it has anti-aging and brightening properties that were actually effective immediately (réveillion ready in an instant). The sparkling manicure was just the cherry on top of the cake that complimented my LBD NY outfit in the best possible way.

I couldn’t imagine a better way to step into 2015 than in my very relaxed, very pampered and very content self.

Thank you Nilaya Mystic Spa for the amazing experience!

Promise?

Posted on December 30, 2014 | Leave a comment

Promise.

I promise to run wild and free, stop only to admire the view (and for the occasional picnics and whatnots), breathe deeply in, be and stay happy, exercise more, read even even more and enjoy the little things. Our lives are full of them.

2014 has been a roller coaster but I’m always up for a theme park. :)

2015 is gonna be great. I even have the front of the line pass.

Take me to church

Those rays of light.

Making everything better.

On cold winter days, like this one, they keep me warmer than this heavily knitted sweater. They bring me closer to new adventures (imaginary and not), they make new beginnings easier, they provide comfort while I deal with dead ends, they make everything clear.

In good ol’ vitamin D we trust.

Amen.
