Last week, my blogger friends and I, were invited to one of Thessaloniki’s biggest stores, Notos Galleries, to get to know the new make-up line of Calvin Klein – ck one color – and have our make-up done by the company’s make-up artists. We were warmly welcomed by the company’s PR & communication manager, Penelope Kontogianni, and then the make-up experts, Panos and Elpida, did their magic on us. Elpida was the one, who did my make-up that day, and I was really satisfied by the result as she brought out my characteristics without making it too over-the-top, since I’m not used to heavy make-up. Maria photographed the process step-by-step for you. All in all it was an amazing experience, and I’m happy we were able to live it. And of course I have nothing but great things to say about the ck make-up line. More, below…

H&M store opening in Thessaloniki | Events
Last Saturday morning we were invited to H&M’s new flagship store opening in Thessaloniki (Tsimiski 20), for an exclusive press preview. The new store has 5 floors and includes all H&M collections (like H&M Conscious & Conscious Exclusive 2014) and it’s the first H&M store in Greece which brings the H&M HOME collection. The exclusive press preview started at 10AM when we were given the grand tour of the store by the country manager of Greece and Bulgaria, Dominique Fantaccino and H&M’s Greece PR Manager Mariza Petrakou. At 12 o’clock, TV Presenters Maria Bekatorou and Grigoris Arnaoutoglou, cut the ribbon of the store which was followed by a talk show till 3 o’clock. We had an amazing time, and I actually bought a little something from the Conscious Collection. To make you feel like you were there with us, I decided to post many photos, so be prepared!

Christmas Tea party – part 2
Good morning and Merry Christmas everyone! I was contemplating whether or not I should post anything here today, but since it’s my regular post day, and I’m sure many of you will return home tired at some point, and may want to read something, I decided to do a post. Some days ago, I revealed our Christmas collaboration with the girls: a pre-Christmas party for the 5 of us (and our photographer, T.) that turned out to be a Christmas themed photoshoot for our blogs. It’s something that we’ve been organizing for weeks and something we don’t think we’ve ever seen anywhere else before…or at least, not in this way. Last time, I showed you our most “posed” photos, but we had lots of laughs together that day, and I didn’t want to leave the more relaxed photos out. This post is dedicated to the “backstage” photos of this photoshoot. I decided to do some collages, because the photos I wanted to post were way too many. You can click on the photos to enlarge them. Have fun, and I hope you all have an amazing Christmas day with your loved ones!

Christmas tea party | Thessaloniki’s Fashion Bloggers edition
I’m sure you’ve noticed that over the past months our little group has been meeting more and more often. In one of our meetings, we realized that this would be the first Christmas we’ve been together, and since Christmas is a time when families get together to celebrate, it wouldn’t be possible for us to be with each other these days. Then we were struck by the idea of hosting a (pre) Christmas tea party, so we can all celebrate this time of the year together. And how nice it would be to capture these moments on camera, and post them on our blogs, creating a Christmas themed collaboration? The decision was taken, and we were so excited that we couldn’t wait for that day, while we were running up and down, organizing everything. We wanted that day to be perfect, on and off camera. On, so we could share it with you, and make you feel like you were there with us, and off because parties are always fun (especially if they include Christmas treats and champagne). This is going to be a really picture-loaded post. You’ve been warned! 😛

Fashion Room Service | Thessaloniki Edition
1 afternoon, 1 hotel, 13 rooms, 13 designers, 1 Absolut party. The Fashion Room Service event was held once more in Thessaloniki, last Sunday 6/10 at Porto Palace hotel, thanks to Ozon Raw Magazine and offradio.gr. 13 hotel rooms were transformed into pop-up fashion showrooms to welcome all guests, and showcase the current collections of 13 designers and labels. The event was completed with an amazing after party by Absolut Vodka. I met with my blogger friends, visited the rooms, took photos, talked to the designers, and then had an amazing time at the after party. In case you missed it, you can check out my Instagram for photos from that night. But in this post, you’re going to find out what happened in the rooms. After visiting all, I have to report that: Every designer had something unique to add to this event. Beautiful clothes, jewels, shoes, and most important of all, the amazing presentation of them, is what we and all the other attendees experienced. Check out all the photos below to see what took place in each room. Since I took way too many photos, I decided to use small galleries for each room. Click on the icon at the right corner of the photos to see it in full size.
