Mykonoooos and Simply Cool Sandals

Long time no see LOTD from me, or anything else actually! But when you're having fun is difficult to think about internet, youtubing, blogging (my obsessions). I've been a very bad blogger, but I can only hope I'll put my feet back to the ground and start sharing again!

I've been to Mykonos for a week which was a pure bliss made of sea, sun, bikinis, coconut oil, dancing, clubbing, cocktails, and screaming , which justifies the Mykonoooos scream since I came back, that annoys everyone around me! You won't understand the fun 'till you go there and follow the craziness. I've been so negative about this island my whole life, probably because of the media, but now I can only say GO FOR IT.

Enough with the rambling though, although I could talk and talk and talk endlessly about it!

When you're clubbing and dancing for 3 days in a row the last thing you care about anymore is high heels!! I've worn them, I've enjoyed it, I've hurt my feel badly, but then we decided that high shoes no more! So we went out with our flat sandals. And I danced so much more!Freedooom.


Dress from Zara

Now these Simply Cool sandals were meant to go to Mykonos! They just arrived the day I was packing so of course I had to make some free space for them! I won them from ermoumag.com and it was such a pleasant surprise since I even forgot I entered! And this is when they say that best things come when you don't expect them.

Let me tell you, it was love at first sight. And they had me from the packaging! Pink bag, satin bow?Yes, please!


Another thing I got super excited about was the linen bag for keeping them! It might sound silly but it feels so luxurious and I've never owned one.




Oh my lovely shoes, I love you.

Turquoise Bikini.10 Euros.Done.





The bikini shopping for now is officially closed! This amazing bikini is from the new summer 2010 H&M collection. You can find a big variety of bikinis with 10 euros only, and I loved that they brought down the prices on the beachwear line so we can shop and get ready for the summer! The colour is pretty much the same as the Kim Kardashian one I was eyeing which made me happy since I was about to spend 150 euros (+shipping) for the Anika Halter.

Yay! :)

New/Old Friend, Swap not Shop!

On Saturday there was the "Xarise to" bazaar by the White Tower, same idea as Freecycle and Swap not Shop, where you could give but also take things you don't like, need or use. We arrived like Santa Clauses under the hot sun with a million bags and after we left them we started searching for treasures. Clothes, shoes and books on piles were waiting and we dug up a white cardigan with shoulder pads (!), a belt perfect for the waist but my favourite thing had absolutely nothing to do with fashion...





*GLOW WORM*

My secret desire was to find some Little Ponies, but that was way better!!! I had two precious Glo Bugs that I used to hug every night (besides,in greek their name was hug-buddy, Αγκαλίτσας!!) and when the night was hot I was trying to cool myself by holding my face against theirs. Saldy, they got lost somewhere (or they were given to someone else, but I don't like to think of that option). I want to thank the person who left this precious little toy for me to find. It was fate baby!

Favourite toys from the 80s you wish you could have back? (Mine would be my Bi-Bi-Bo with a neon pink swimming suit I loved. )

I Dream of Turquoise Bikinis

This summer, I want to look like that :


Step 1 :Buy bikini
Step 2 : Get tanned before you hit the beach
Step 3 : Dye your hair back to black
Step 4 : Lose weight
Step 5 : Tone up
Step 6 : Get hoop earrings
Step 7 : Wear tons of make up

Mission....almost impossible! At least I can buy a turquoise bikini...


I think this might be exactly the bikini Kim Kardashian is wearing by the way. I thought "wow this is quite similar", then I looked at the picture again and thought "this might be the one!" and "I'm buying it nooow!". About to grab the credit card... and then I looked at the price : Anika Halter Neck Bikini With Semi Precious Jade Stone Chips - 141,00 pounds. *SIGH....*

I found many around with the same colour but not many I can afford right now. *Sad...*
Are you buying new bikini this year? Are you eyeing a colour like me?

A LipSmackers Bouquet

(I was amazed to find out the ones I have match like chameleon on the plant at my balcony!)

Forget about Liposan, forget about Burt's Bees, Carmex and any other lip balm.

LipSmackers are the KING of lip balms! This is the one that makes any dry lipstick feel amazing! Especially in winter, when we all know that wearing lipstick means we have to experience nasty looking lips.

I've been using it for about 2 years. For some reason, I took a break for a while and forgot about them, using Carmex this winter. Then I couldn't stand lipstick and I stoppeed using lipstick. Big mistake! The problem wasn't the lipsticks but the primer. Back to LipSmacker now I have to say that I can't find anything more moisturising. More cons? Hundreds of flavours, sweet taste (not that it matters but still, it's well known that a woman consumes abour 2 kilos of lip products in her life, it might as well be sweet!), and the Ice Creamies lipglosses are a good alternative when you diet, plus they shine and last whilst keeping your lips soft. Looove it.

And no, I'm not getting paid to review them, nor the company sent me any for free. (But if you're reading this, dear company, please feel free to!! Lol). Just my opinion, and since I took some pics like I do with all my favourite things I thought I might as well post them.

Bubble Gum, Berry Sundae, Banana Split, Cookie Dough

Red Rasberry, Strawberry Banana, Strawberry, Watermelon, Marshmallow

Cotton Candy, Mango Berry

(Alecca Rox thank you very much for a couple of them from your giveaway btw, I didn't get the chance to, but I loved them of course! ^_^)

Do you use, do you love, what's your favourite etc?? Mine has to be Cookie Dough, especially now that I can't get my hands into some Ben and Jerry's Cookie Dough ice cream ugh!
