What I wore on my Birthday | Outfits

May222013

Last Thursday on the 16th it was my birthday, and even though I decided not to have a big party this year, I wanted to go out with my bf. So after I blew the candles on my birthday cake with the company of some of my relatives, I went out for dinner. I jump at any occasion that allows me to dress up, and this is definitely high on my list. Dressing up for me means, picking something ladylike, a style that I, not only love, but I also think it suits my body and my personality. I had this dress in my closet for far too long (I had only shown it on my FB page a few months back), and I was looking for an opportunity to wear it, and the same goes for these gorgeous spiked pumps from Blink. They’re the perfect nude, to my almost pale white skin tone. Once more, I had to take my outfit photos myself, with the help of my trusty tripod. I was planning on at least taking them in my garden, but as soon as I got dressed it started raining, so my balcony was the only solution, if I wanted to show you an outfit today. But enough about that…let’s move on to the fun part…the photos.

In the army | Outfits

May202013

You may have already noticed, that this year I have a slight obsession over monochromatic looks (you’ve seen a total monochromatic look of mine here). When I got these 2 army green/khaki pieces from H&M, I couldn’t wait to wear them together. I was actually looking for a pair of khaki jeans for a long time, to combine with my high heeled brown booties spartoo. So when the temperatures fell a lot last week, I jumped at the opportunity to wear them all together. Seriously loved that look! I hope you enjoy the photos.

P for Pastels | Outfits

May172013

These photos were taken a couple of weeks ago, but I mixed the posts lately, to show you other ones first. We were on the first really hot days of spring, with temperatures rising up to 30 degrees just before Greek Easter. I couldn’t resist putting on pastels and bright colored sandals, and go out for coffee with a friend (the photos, however, were taken later in the day by T.). I love the outfit, and pics, but they don’t look that flattering. I think I’ve lost some weight since then (even though these pics don’t do me justice), and hopefully I’ll lose even more in the future.

How to choose your blog’s design

 

 In this part we’ll talk about the dos and don’ts when choosing a blog design and everything around it. Of course some of them can be subjective, but there are some basic guidelines that most bloggers suggest or dislike.

Mixed prints & khaki | Outfits

May132013

All photos shot by T.

Last Monday, we were finally able to arrange a small blogger’s meeting, with An.ni from “From An.ni with Love” and Kate from “The Orange Pig”. Before that, I had to go to a nameday party, so I knew I was going to be out of the house all day, and needed something comfy, but also stylish since I was going to meet my girls for “coffee” downtown later. The weather was super cloudy, which allowed me to wear my new khaki H&M shirt. And since all my outfits start with choosing the right shoes, I knew these as well. But, I also needed a big bag, to carry my DSLR around, hence the weird mixing of prints here: leopard and snakeskin. It did keep me comfortable and warm enough all day, and I had a great day with the girls. So happy to have finally met them!
