Seaside

Dress: Primark
Top: Primark
Necklace: Accessorize
Ankle boots: Zara

Τις τελευταίες μέρες δεν ήμουν πολύ καλά. Υπέφερα σωματικά, και το μόνο που βγήκε από γιατρούς και εξετάσεις ήταν "άγχος". Η ασθένεια του αιώνα.

Μερικές φορές πρέπει να σταματάμε, να παίρνουμε μια βαθιά ανάσα και να χαλαρώνουμε.

Η σημερινή μέρα ήταν το τέλειο αντίδοτο, να'ναι καλά οι αργίες! Έφαγα μπακαλιάρο σκορδαλιά και όλα τα καλά, περπάτησα στη παραλία, μύρισα τον καθαρό αέρα, γέμισα τα μποτάκια μου με άμμο, έφαγα παγωτό, ΗΡΕΜΗΣΑ.

Πόσο χαίρομαι όταν το μόνο που με βασανίζει είναι.. τι να βάλω το βράδυ?

Σοβαρά τώρα,τι να βάλω το βράδυ? Μετά από μια κρίση άνοιξης, πέταξα τη μισή ντουλάπα μου οπότε δεν έχω και πολλές επιλογές αλλά δεν πειράζει.

Ελπίζω να περάσατε όμορφα τη μέρα σας! xxx



In the last days I wasn't feeling great. I was suffering physically and the only thing doctors and tests said was "stress". The disease of the century.

Sometimes we just need to stop, take a deep breath and relax.

Today was the perfect antidote, thank god for holidays! I had Mpakaliaros Skordalia (cod in butter with a garlic paste, traditional food for the day) and all things nice, walked on the beach, smelles the fresh air, filled my boots with sand, had ice cream, RELAXED.

I'm so happy when the only thing worrying me is..what to wear tonight?

Seriously, what should I wear tonight? After a crazy spring moment, I threw away half my clothes, so I don't have many choices but that's ok.

I hope you had a lovely day! xxx

China Glaze in Town

The other day I was complaining to fellow blogger Katrina that I'm jealous I can't find China Glaze nail polish around.

I was on the bus coming through Aggelaki St, I was looking outside the window and suddenly I see a China Glaze shop!A.Whole.China Glaze.Shop.

Of course the thing I wanted the most was to jump off the bus at the next stop but since Aristotelous St was our final destination this day, I held myself from dumping the girls to go nail polish shopping. I think they were looking at me weird over my enthusiasm for nail polish... :P

Of course I went first thing in the morning the other day.

There were hundrends of colours and it was hard for me to chose. I eyed some darks (green, blue, cherry, black) but since the weather is better I suppose I won't wear them that much. I got :

Τις προάλλες έλεγα στη φίλη blogger Katrina ότι ζηλεύω που δεν βρίσκω βερνίκια China Glaze.

Τυχαίνει λοιπόν, και περνάω με λεωφορείο από την Αγγελάκη. Κοιτάω από το παράθυρο και ξαφνικά βλέπω μαγαζί China Glaze! Ένα. Ολόκληρο. Μαγαζί. China Glaze!!

Περιττό να πω ότι ήθελα να κατέβω εκείνη τη στιγμή στην επόμενη στάση, αλλά έχε χάρη που ο προορισμός της μέρας ήταν η Αριστοτέλους και είπα να μην παρατήσω την παρέα και τρέχω για ψώνια. Νομίζω ότι με κοίταξαν λίγο περίεργα για τον ενθουσιασμό που είχα. :P

Φυσικά και πήγα την επόμενη μέρα πρωί πρωί.

Είχε εκατοντάδες χρώματα και ήταν πολύ δύσκολο να διαλέξω. Το μάτι μου έπεσα πάνω στα ωραία σκούρα (κυπαρισί, μπλε, βυσσινί, μαύρο) αλλά άνοιξε ο καιρός και δύσκολα θα τα φορέσω. Πήρα :



The infamous "For Audrey" that I wanted since the first time I found it on the internet. The colour is the same as the Tiffany's box, a soft turquoise. Lovely.

Το γνωστό "For Audrey" που το ήθελα από την πρώτη στιγμή που το είδα. Το χρωματάκι είναι ένα απαλό τιρκουάζ, ολόιδιο με το κουτάκι από τα Tiffany's (εξού και το όνομα, τιμή στην Αudrey Hepburn)


I also got the pink "Pure Elegance" that will probably leave for the summer. Looks like it will be great on tanned skin.

Price : 10 euros each. Not great but much better than paying 15 in Sephora for a limited number of colours of OPI.

Επίσης πήρα το ροζάκι "Pure Elegance" το οποίο θα αφήσω στην άκρη για το καλοκαίρι και απ'ότι βλέπω θα είναι ακόμα πιο ωραίο σε μαυρισμένο δέρμα!

Τιμή , 10 ευρώ το ένα. Δεν τρελαίνεσαι κιόλας με την τιμή αλλά καλύτερα από τα OPI στα Sephora που έχουν 15 και σε περιορισμένα χρώματα.

Η διάρκεια τους είναι καταπληκτική. Κρατάνε άνετα μια βδομάδα με μόνο την ακρούλα να ξεφτίζει ελάχιστα.Καμία σχέση με τα φτηνά που αγόραζα συνήθως. Επίσης απ'ότι λέει πάνω στη συσκευασία, περιέχουν σκληρυντικό.

Aggelaki St is officially the Nail Polish St. Not only there's the China Glaze shop, but also another one dedicated to nails with Essie, OPI, Orly and much more and anything professional.

Have you tried any China Glaze?Anything good that you would suggest for me to try?

Η Αγγελάκι είναι επίσημα η οδός των Νυχιών. Όχι μόνο υπάρχει το συγκεκριμένο μαγαζί, αλλά και ένα άλλο με Essie, OPI, Orly και ότι άλλο επαγγελματικό ψάχνετε.

Έχετε δοκιμάσει China Glaze? Έχετε να προτείνετε κάποιο άλλο χρώμα να δοκιμάσω?

Remember Me {My Review, No Spoilers}


Just came back from the "Remember Me" premiere.

Given the fact that it was a last minute decision, I can say that it was a night well spend.

First impressions. If you're are a Robert Pattinson fan, I don't need to say much. JUST GO AND WATCH IT! Me and all the girls in the theater enjoyed a whole moving staring at his gorgeous face, no annoying Kirsten on our way, just the ridiculously pretty and sweet Emile de Ravin. I'm not sure how the two guys in there found it, haha. I have to confess I missed a couple of lines just because I couldn't concentrate. Don't get me wrong, after a movie of him being weird (How to be), another one being gay and having horrible hair (Little Ashes) and let's not forget the white-with-red-lips vampire look (Twilight , New Moon) it was a nice change to see him being his normal, good-looking self. I could do without the American accent but oh well, next time we'll get luckier. :p

Now, apart from the superficial crap, Robert and Emile actually make a great couple, they had good chemistry and they both acted well, along with the rest of the cast. I think he movie is beautiful, well-written, it's not just a love story like they make it look on the trailer and the meaning in the end is something much more than that.

I have one warning. Don't let anyone give you details of the movie. You'd better go completely naive and you'll enjoy it much more.

Finally, the movie made me cry. And only good movies make me cry.

For the record, here's the plot summary from IMDB.

"In the romantic drama Remember Me, Robert Pattinson plays Tyler, a rebellious young man in New York City who has a strained relationship with his father (Pierce Brosnan) ever since tragedy separated their family. Tyler didn't think anyone could possibly understand what he was going through until the day he met Ally (Emilie de Ravin) through an unusual twist of fate. Love was the last thing on his mind, but as her spirit unexpectedly heals and inspires him, he begins to fall for her. Through their love, he begins to find happiness and meaning in his life. Soon, hidden secrets are revealed, tragedy lingers in the air, as the circumstances that brought them together threaten to tear them apart."

Goodnight everyone.
(Go watch it) :)

PS. After you watch it, email if you want to gossip about the ending. ;)

My New Love {Ring}




The postman brought some excitement into my life this morning! I was so looking forward to receiving my pretty ring! It's actually the first time I used etsy.com and I'm extremely happy with communication,shipping and, do I need to say more about the ring? :D

Lizhutnick has many girly and cute looking things but I especially loved the flower pattern on rings with vintage-looking band!

Now I'm just thinking of my next purchase! Highly recommended! :)
