yummy


i don't consider myself the domestic type- i love junk food- mcdonalds- anything unhealthy is my thing

but this weekend i thought "why not? give it a try?"
it took me aprox 2 hours but the result was worth the try!
cinnamon rolls are the best!!!!
click here for the recipe 

i think that xmas cookies are next on my list and then macarons or maybe cupcakes. rather ambitious of me!

bonjour



that's how scary i look in the mornings!
when it's freezing outside my best friend is this oversized scarf i bought some winters ago from h&m.
you see i have to protect my nose if i don't want it to turn into a carrot nose. because then i will have to put some weight and accept my role as this winter's snowman!

seriously why am i so cold all the time?

track pants






it doesn't get any more comfortable

track pants + huge knit + wedges= comfy but stylish

i have always been afraid of track pants- when work with flats i look like i'm on my way to the gym!

but when i tried them out with my desert boots i instantly loved the look!

both pants and knit are from zara

would you consider track pants a stylish everyday choice?

november




november for me is about being comfy

1. chunky knits, cable knitted or fairisle shorts, a warm coat and magic shoes

2. sparkly shoes make everything so much fun!!!

3. and don't forget the huge bag- there is always enought space for your yarn and needles!

2 stories/ 2 sketches/ 1 skirt



story1: the pencil skirt

i used to consider pencil skirts boring- anyway not for my lifestyle. i'm neither librarian not a secretary- so i was pretty sure that i would never ever wear one

but this season something changed- i fell in love with knits and suddenly it dawned on me- 
a huge knit+ a pencil skirt+ heels= perfection

story2: sketching
i have in my room tons of dossiers full of sketches- i started with princess at the age of 5. when i was 10 i decided that the best princess ever was eowyn from lord of the rings so for the next 2 years i did that- after that fashion got me and when i turned 18 i decided that thae closest thing to fashion i could do in greece was architecture- i still sketch- not buildings- clothes
so i can't help but wonder...
after i graduate this year maybe i should try a different direction and apply for fashion schools as well.

this is why i thought 
what the hell? sketch for the blog, girl!
what do you think?it's a but garancedoresque i know:(
