My month in pics – August 2012

Aug312012

Another month comes to an end and takes with it our precious summer! Although summer in Greece is far from over, I can’t hide the fact that I get a little bit depressed every time this happens. It’s not that I love summer, no! I actually hate the scorching heat that goes with it…I’m a spring girl at heart. That’s my favorite season.  But when summer is over, it means that we’re going into fall and then winter (my least favorite season). I can’t help it but feel depressed by this change, when nature changes again, and we can see nothing but fallen leaves (which I admit can be very romantic) and naked trees, and most important of all, the time changes again! This time change from summer to winter is what depress me the most, when the days become shorter, and the nights longer… When the darkness comes at 5pm instead of 8.30-9.30 p.m that does in summer… Oh summer time I’ll miss you the most! At least we have almost 2 more months until the time change!

But let’s see a little recap of my August, the last summer month:

5 ways to wear a multi-colored printed dress

Aug152012

As I told you on my previous post, today (August 15th) is one of the biggest religion holidays in Greece (The Assumption of Mary). For this reason, I’m not going to do a regular post but a “new kind of post” instead.

Today, I’m going to show you 5 ways to wear a multi-colored printed dress. When you have an item with so many colors on it, it’s a bit difficult to find a good match for the shoes and the other accessories, because you don’t want to overdo it with the colors. The most important advice I have to give you is to stick to one or some of the colors that your item, in this case dress, already has on it. My rule is never more than 3 colors – a rule my mom passed on me – because you don’t want to look like a clown.

You may pair it with flats or heels, that’s absolutely your choice, but if your dress has as many colors as mine on it, be careful with your selection of accessories. Let’s see how I wore mine.

Chalkidiki Diary

Aug62012

As you already know, 2 weeks after my vacation to Chios, I left again, this time for Chalkidiki, the heaven on earth for us living in Thessaloniki. When I go to Chalkidiki, I usually stay at my cousin’s summer house, just outside N.Marmaras. The house is in a very quiet area, surrounded by trees, and almost-wild nature, and it’s only a few meters away from the beach (although you need to walk a lot to get there). My uncle bought the land many years ago, and built a cute house there, under 2 huge plane trees (platanus). You may remember telling you how much I love the platanus smell on last year’s post about Chalkidiki.

Day 6 in Chios – Daskalopetra, Kardamila, Lagada

Jul272012

Day 6 begun with a walk to Daskalopetra, which was in the same area as our hotel. Just a few meters away from our hotel was Daskalopetra, or Homer’s Rock, one of the island’s best known monuments. It is considered to be the place where Homer used to teach his students.
