If I could choose a decoration style...

I tend to keep papers..and papers... Notes, drawings, thoughts.. But mostly pages from magazines! Fashion, make up, travelling, cooking, decoration... Pretty things!

Every once in a while, I throw things I'm bored of, and I tidy the rest, organise them.

The other day, whilst I was looking around my "treasures", I bumped into these.

I like many styles, but if I could just choose one, it would be english cottage style. Girly, fresh, light, sweet.

Package from Canada

Two days ago, I woke up early, I started studying, I was concentrated... And then I hear the doorbell! This came so early, I'm so happy with greek post-office lately *crying from happiness*.

My Heatherette Powder arrived!! It's officially no longer in my wishlist.

Lovepink sent me this package! First of all she was too nice and waited for me whilst I had some problems with paypal. And then she sent me not only the powder but all those cute stuff!! I wish I could buy all of the rest! She still has some available I think if you're interested!


Samples, NYX lipstick in Twig (my first!), Tic Tac from Canada , yo, aaaand this cute little bag also from MAC.

I love the golden colour and the amazing design with the crown..


MAC Powder in Smooth Armony from an old collection, Heatherette, apart from obviously the packaging that made me want it in first place, is a coraly, bronze-y colour. Didn't work for contouring for me but as a bronzer and a blush is fantastic!

Deep (into the) blue

How do I come up with all these titles? They should hire me in Cosmopolitan magazine! :P
I'm here for a quick post after all these days just checking yous, stressing, and studying. Two more to go and we're done for this semester.

For today's outfit we've got jean shorts from Pull & Bear, blue satin t-shirt from H&M, my favourite necklace from Accessorize, and sandals with ribbon in blue and turquoise colours.





Some time ago I got some awards, thanks so much! One from our girl Nina Malvada
and two Lovely Blog Award from Hot Spot aka Tasha and Mrs Style-Ish my current obsession! She is a super chic, stylish lady, with a shoe addiction and fantastic photos. And her style seems so effortless, I just love it!

The blogs I appreciate are so many, I should make a list some time! That's why I'm not giving any awards back, I'll have a whole post about that!

Also, I'm planning to make a list on the side with all the greek blogs, to have them together, and the truth is, there are so many popping up,or I find them through other blogs. Our little community keeps growing and the bloggers meet each other(check Nina Malvada for the most fun photos!), which is positive!
So if you have a greek blog that I don't know about, leave a comment to make your blog known out there and to add you on my list! So far I know about 25, which is great if you think that it all started with 3 blogs: Fashion Arcitect, Shopping Therapy and Little Stylist for me!

Till next time,

A quick post to let you know that Fashionista514 is having an awesome giveaway!

Merenda anyone?


Dear Merenda,

We've been through so much together. You were always there for me, at the good and the bad times. When I feel happy, when I feel sad or depressed, when I'm hungry and craving something sweet, at this specific time of the month when I feel like emptying the fridge.
Since I was yound and I was dipping my small fingers inside. Now that I'm all grown up, I still do the same.

Yum, why do you have to be that delicious?

So thanks for all that.
With eternal love,
Marietta

Ps : You're better than Nutella and you know it!


Rumbling after eating a jar of that.. :D

Navy-like + another giveaway

I woke up really early in the morning and went to the bakery for bretsel! Yummy! Especially with just butter!


Awkward posing once again.. Why can't I be fierce?LOL
Ps : Have you heard about the upcoming America's next top model for short girls?!


I love every single detail on the bag that defines the style "navy".From the buttons (?) to the rope, inside and out. Gorgeous and all time classic because it's made of jeans.I have it for about 4-5 years and I use it every summer!





Plus , another giveaway. Gotta love them! Looking for a reason to have my own soon!
Lovepink is giving some amazing stuff (and a Lush sample I'd love to try!) and she's having a Mac Blog sale with old collections like Heatherette!!

How was your weekend (3-days holidays for Greece!)? Did you go to the beach yet??
