FASHIONISTA LOOKS: January 2012

It's too cold outside for angels to fly..

It's getting really cold out here and it's time to sport our thickest sweaters and fluffiest fur. However I can't hide from you that I'm starting to yearn for spring a little bit. I am really excited to see the new clothes on the store racks. It is sale at the moment here in Greece and as you can assume, I've been spending the last few weekends shopping. Today I bought a nice cropped sweater from Benetton and a light pink MAC lipstick.

The pictures I have for you here are from my trip to my summer house a couple of weeks ago; the outfit is pretty much casual and simple but it worked great for a walk outdoors on a chilly day.

Sweater: H&M

Fur vest: ZARA

Bag: ZARA

Jeggings: Blanco

Boots: Pull&Bear

Rings: Forever21

A Clockwork Orange

Hello, readers!

How was your day? Mine was - well, boring. I watched the latest episodes of "Keeping up with the Kardashians" and "Kourtney and Kim take New York." I don't know exactly why. I haven't quite figured out why I watch these shows yet. It's not that I really admire them or look up to them and I agree that showing your life in public is weird and kind of sick. So shall we call it a 'guilty pleasure'? Well yeah, although I don't feel really guilty, to be honest. : P I like their style and their make up and just watching their lives is kind of fascinating. I could never do it, like, have cameras inside my house and basically fabricate my life. But it doesn't hurt watching others do it.

Also, speaking of TV I am about to watch the last Vampire Diaries episode to get in the mood for the new episode which is premiering tomorrow night in America and which unfortunately I'm going to miss, since I am going away for a couple of days. But right as soon as I get back home, first thing to do is get down and watch the damn episode! I've been waiting so long for it! Everything is Delena and nothing hurts, right?

So yeah, one reason I love January is (no, not because school starts:P) that all my favorite tv shows start again! (Including Pretty Little Liars which premiered on Monday - Ah-mazing episode!)

God, if you give me the chance to talk I might never stop.

Okay, so on to the outfit. I took these pictures yesterday while I was out and I later went to Alex's place (one of my dear friends) and we were a whole bunch of people hanging out, we made videos, it was really cool!

This H&M dress has come out really handy so far, it is very comfortable and I've never owned anything orange so it was quite a change for my closet, I love seeing brights in it, it makes my mood!

Dress: H&M

Booties: ZARA

Bag: Chanel

New Stylish Year

Happy New Year, everyone!

Hope you all had a great time with your friends and family these days, hope you ate well, danced as much you could, listened to Andy Williams and Frank Sinatra as much you could and of course - what else - got amazing gifts! It's the happiest season of all, after all!!

Christmas holidays means vacation which means no school and time to spend doing the things we love the most. For me, part of that was taking pictures for the blog. Here is an outfit I wore on Christmas day for a family dinner. I have never done streetstyle-inspired shots before, so I thought that was the perfect opportunity since the weather was pretty light - not your typical white Christmas you used to know (like, AT ALL)

Btw, I have this hopeless romantic soul that is looking out for all things lovey-dovey, so a friend of mine with whom I share the same taste in books, lend me this book it's called "My Name Is Memory" by Ann Brashares and it left me SPEECHLESS. It was soo good. For all you romantic novels' lovers out there I totally suggest this book, it is so good you'll get hooked!
