shoes and the city

yesterday i spent all morning downtown doing some shopping! 

i ended up buying a new pair of flat espadrilles- ever since garance dore posted about how much she  hates them, i became addicted- anyway that's another post- here i want you to pay attention to the shoes pictured below- 

i think i found the worst pair of heels ever!

they have 3 different kinds of glitter on them- gold- silver and black!

i tried them on and i fell- i guess i deserved it, since i hated them so much!

espadrilles post coming next....:D

skirt: asos

vest: oysho

flats: zara

new california

this weekend was extremely hot! 38 celsius degrees 

i keep creating my autumn looks on polyvore but it's all in vain!

i have to accept that greece is the new california- i dread wearing shorts on christmas day but sadly i can see it coming.....

anyway, my best friend and i decided that we should spend this weekend by the sea, reading agatha christies and drinking coffees. 

best decision ever

2011|09|10 _last stripes of summer_

yesterday i spend all day in front my pc- i had to produce a 3d aerial view of an urban planning project for the city of palermo

(do u remember? i went to sicily earlier this summer because of this project) 

anyway, i hate spending my day in front of my pc!

so when dimis called and said we should hurry because the sun was about to go down I JUMPED literally and met him by the seaside.

we walked a little bit, joked, then almost got hit by a bike.

but when we arrived at the old abandoned swimming pool we decided we should take some photos!

so, how do you spend your last days of summer???

shirt: COS

top: asos

skirt: stradivarius

shoes: melissa

DIY BRACELET

 !AND HERE IT IS!

my inspiration is this amazing piece of jewelry

(scroll down)

(continue scrolling)

and these are the steps- it's actually quite simple- all you have to do is  use the thread and start making a braid!

only remember u have to put in between these pieces of metal- i needed approximately 40 pieces (±0.80 euros)

(ohh my god is the scrolling never ending?)

and

 TA DA

the bracelet is ready- and it looks awesome i dare say!

here i mixed it with some of my most colorful summer friendship bracelets+ a COS leather one!

so if you liked it... go on and give it a try!

2011|09|06 YELLOW

i woke up today and the first song from my "not-so-fun-but-awesome" playlist was YELLOW by COLDPLAY

since i dream of marrying chris martin ( yeah musicians are hot) i decided my skirt should be YELLOW_my top should be YELLOW_ my watch YELLOW as well_ maybe i should have a YELLOW day

so i called mY friend dimis yelling and screaming THAT I WAS YELLOW

he screamed back LET'S GO FOR A YELLOW COFFEE

since that is rather impossible i ordered an orange juice (they did not serve lemon juice)
i should add that when dimis showed up HE WAS NOT YELLOW

that was the end of YELLOW_the rest of the day was a tragedy

YVONNE KONE

i'm dreaming once again of jewelry- that's 
amazing YVONNE KONE available here!

i thing tomorrow i'll have a DIY session and try to create some of these pieces myself!


wish me luck!!!!
