I suck at blogging (and other stories)

 Hello boys and girls and imaginary blog readers out there!! How are you all doing?? 
 If you have been reading my blog for a while you already know I suck at updating it! During August, I was busy having fun and this time I was busy being stressed out! Whatever the reason, I'll always be back and share with you though...!  So be patient and email me in between!! That's always welcome!
 Now... I'm gonna nag about the new job - to make it a pleasant ride, I'll post a couple of outfits I wore during happy times in August. Ready?


  Summer outfit I wore in a coffee meeting with my neighbor Aggeliki and her friend, Natasha. I had to take pics of us gorgeous girls of course! The lovely rose ring is a gift from my talented blog-friend Irini! She is a sweetheart and she makes some pretty awesome jewellery! Check her blog here and share the blog-love please!


Back to the coffee meeting: Aggeliki pretending to own somebody else's BMW.....


....the very stylish Natasha....

...and yours truly!



Earrings made by me - glasses made by Dior!

 The new job is exhausting in every possible way. I changed my mind... I have two days off, so I'm gonna spare you good people with my nagging! On to the second outfit...

  
  My lovely mom, gave me some vintage scarves a while ago. One of them inspired this "Mad Men meets the navy" outfit, which I thought is kind of acceptable and wore for a day of shopping downtown! 


More earrings made by me and a beautiful scarf back from the 70's!

 While I was absent from the blogging world, some great things happened! 

1. I got an award from another good blog friend, Ermioni! 


 Ermioni is a new mommy who tries out and shares with us some pretty delicious recipes! Greek cuisine with a twist at "The one with all the tastes"!! Thanks for the lovely award dear! I'm supposed to write down "7 things about me", but this is a loooong post already, so check the previous "7 things about" me here if you're new around here!


2. Tracy made a vlog!! She is just amazing! Most of you probably know Tracy already, but if you don't (and you're inexcusable), go check her blog. Now. Go... What are you waiting for?? 

 Many more great things must have happened, but my bloglovin' shows 493 unread posts. I must have missed something. I'll try my best to catch up! Kisses til next time! Φιλιά σε όλους!

Hot girlz under the sun! (looong post)

 Hello lovely readers of my almost abandoned blog!! I want to welcome all the new followers (I hope you like it here and you'll stick around) and thank the old ones for supporting me and for always leaving all your nice comments (which take time and effort and extra care, so I appreciate each and every one)!!
You people keep me going!!
 This has been a week that flew by so fast... I did a lot of housework, some new jewellery making and a lot of protesting against I.M.F. and the current greek government! (for new readers - things in Greece are a little hectic lately! A lot of political and social action is going on and many of us are actively involved). I was also out of internet for 3 days due to some network malfunction or something!


  On to some fashion pics now! Latest outfit I wore yesterday for a coffee in the sun with two friends! One of those friends is also my neighbor, which is so cool! Neighbors can be a real pain in the... you know, but when they are nice people that you get along, it's so great! I'm lucky that my neighbors are young and fashionable girls like me (and they love and support my jewellery too)! After the coffee and the catching-up I was trying to persuade them to take pics and show up in my blog.... The first reaction was this one...


.....but finally they changed their mind! 

That's Χρυσάνθη (Chrysanthi)....
 So it's nice to see some fresh faces around here (see? I do have friends! Some of them are not imaginary, they do exist!). It was fun to have some support while taking pics in public (I think by now I'm the town's "crazy lady" who takes pics of herself!). 

And this is Γεωργία (Georgia), my neighbor.
 Fun fact that most of you probably don't know: Can you see the blue building behind us? This is CHS - Center for Hellenic Studies in Greece, which is an annex of Harvard University in Europe!! Did you know we have Harvard students in our town? You do now!

Outfit:

Skirt - Sprider stores
Top - American Apparel (via Asos)
Scarf - Asos
Belt - Local shop
Shoes - Kill Doll
Glasses - Dior

 Oh, I almost forgot!! Thanks everyone for voting in my poll! I took the outcome into consideration and thought about it a lot. Remixers have already started with the 30 for 30 summer remix. I won't join them this time!! I will be posting outfit pics of course...  I could even make a "top 30 summer outfits" to make it kind of more organized, but like Ashley said in her comment: "It's summer, it's supposed to be a relaxing period!".
 So I won't commit to remixing this time! But stay tuned for more summer dresses, jewellery making, tutorials and a lot of greek craziness!! Love you - don't forget to keep smiling! 

And a banner all my Greek followers will understand hopefully...!

Brown and green?

 A quick post to show you my outfit from yesterday, when we visited G's parents for lunch! They live in the neighbour town of Argos, so this  is where this lovely church is (Church of St. John I think....)

 I decided to go comfy yet modest and then I remembered that I've only worn this skirt once (here), so here it is again! Paired with brown boots, bag and belt; a green top and jacket; and two grey scarves tied together. I like it that green "warms up" when mixed with brown!


Outfit:

Skirt - local flea market
Green top - Asos
Jacket - Urban Outfitters
Grey long scarf - American Apparel
Grey "rose" scarf - Asos
Belt - Local store
Shoes - Local store
Bag - On Pedder
Glasses - Just Cavalli


 Can you spot our cat Dina right behind me? She's a real rebel! And black with a white spot in one side! 

Kisses till next time!
