Long Live McQueen | 2 years anniversary

2012-02-11T04:51:00.000-08:00

This is a breathtaking video from Alexander McQueen's exhibition in New York Metropolitan Museum, named Savage Beauty. I find myself really lucky, attending this exhibition was perhaps the best experience in my life. This video I found is extremely good, it shows the whole exhibition and shares many information about my favourite designer, Alexander.

So.. Long Live McQueen!

Madwalk by Vodafone 2012 | Loukia

2012-02-11T02:23:00.000-08:00

And finally, Loukia with Michalis Chatzigiannis! Loukia is a unique fashion designer, in love with romance and elegance. Chatzigiannis is also a fan of romance, with his beautiful songs and the ballerinas surrounding him. The concept was amazing, so simple and yet so classy and breathtaking.

I don't have a lot to say for Loukia's creations, I think she is so talented and a great personality and that is obvious in her s/s collection. It's every girl's dream!

So, I guess that was it. You can always like and check SmellsLikeFashion's facebook page, where I upload many pictures from Madwalk and fashion catwalks in general. Don't forget, the f/w 2012-2013 shows have begun, so stay tuned for my favourite collections!

Madwalk by Vodafone 2012 | Angelos Frentzos

2012-02-11T02:08:00.000-08:00

This was an also great show, ispired from nature. Angelos Frentzos presented his new collection while Ilia Darlin was singing with her awesome voice!

I can see every girl or woman rocking his outfits, adding a wild touch in an urban look. I loved the fantastic black, grey and white colours, the animal - like masks and the whole fashion statement feeling! Sorry about the bad photos, the models wouldn't stay still for just a sec! I'm not Testino, guys!!

Loukia's creations is the next and last one post about this successful Fashion Music Project, so stay tuned!

Madwalk by Vodafone 2012 | Apostolos Mitropoulos

2012-02-10T08:15:00.000-08:00

What a show!

It was New York at the 80's all over again! Extreme creations from Apostolos Mitropoulos, full of prints and colours, sexy dancers and our amazing Sakis Rouvas featuring Nomi Ruiz singing Bad Thing! This is what Madwalk is all about: the perfect match of an extreme catwalk and a show from the best pop singer in Greece!

Although I am a fan of minimalism and simplicity in my outfits, I couldn't resist thinking how awesome would be, if I matched a chic outfit with one Mitropoulos' piece of art, like a bright jacket, or a printed pair of tights!

Madwalk by Vodafone 2012 | Efi Papaioannou

2012-02-10T04:41:00.000-08:00

The next show opened Natasa Theodoridou, wearing one of Efi's creations, and it reminded me of Alexander McQueen's chessboard catwalk.

Efi Papaioannou is from Cyprus and her collection is something between rock and chic, a combination I find really attractive for almost every age. What I fell in love with is the leather jacket, full of studs! So rock, so stylish , a big fashion statement!

Coming up next, Apostolos Mitropoulos, Angelos Frentzos and Loukia!

Madwalk by Vodafone 2012 | Angelos Bratis

2012-02-10T01:50:00.000-08:00

Before the next show, we had the chance to watch a great music break, where famous singers like Isorropistis and Katerina Stikoudi rocked the stage. Also, Kokkina Chalia sang the greek version of Brimful Of Asha! Looking at Isorropistis, I realized that he was wearing the ultimate athletic pair of shoes: the leopard Adidas by Jeremy!

Anyway, back to the show! Eleni Foureira opened this show, with her sexy appearance and an amazing backround surrounding her. Angelos Bratis' s/s collection begun and I must say I liked it a lot! The navy style and the great colours like blue, yellow and nude were great.

Also, have you check the SLF facebook page? Many thing are coming, so stay tuned!

Madwalk by Vodafone 2012 | Sophia Kokosalaki

2012-02-09T15:36:00.000-08:00

After all these shows (click here, here and here) the time has come for us to watch live My Wet Calvin and.. Sophia Kokosalaki's new line named Kore! I've never watched a Sophia Kokosalaki catwalk before and I was super excited. Her collection is inspired from Greece and minimalism is the main theme. But also, feminine, chic lines that matched with the greek band that was performing!

I love it when designers show wearable clothes for every age and I must say that Kore is also an affordable line, too!

Madwalk by Vodafone 2012 | Celia Kritharioti

2012-02-09T13:07:00.000-08:00

Ok, my vocabulary isn't enough for Celia's creations. Each time, she makes you wanna get married immediatly, wearing one of her gowns. Doukissa Nomikou, one of the most beautiful greek models, opened the show, wearing this Katy Parry - like mini skirt and cupcakes. It's amazing how chic she looked, even though her apperance was so sexy!

Celia's creations totally matched with the candy backround, but also with Midenistis & Demy, who rocked the stage!

We saw elegant evening dresses, full of sparkling diamonds, lace and preppy style. Finally, Vicky Kaya ended this show with a super cool wedding gown!

Keep on checking my facebook page, many things are uploading, straight from Madwalk!

Madwalk by Vodafone 2012 | Delight

2012-02-09T06:27:00.000-08:00

Paparizou ended her show in an amazing way and then Vicky Kaya said "Now, it's time for Leon and the catwalk of Delight!!".

We (fashion bloggers) screamed because Delight are our favourite girls when it comes to greek fashion. I was so disappointed last October, when they didn't present their collection after all, but now it was my time to see live their creations.

Oh I knew they'd be perfection, but actually they were more than perfect. These pale pinks, the bright yellows, the fashion statement stripes and the passionate reds, all combined with their significant print, made the excellent collection for this spring and summer.

Don't forget to check my facebook page often, you can find many Madwalk photos and news!

Madwalk by Vodafone 2012 | Deux Hommes

2012-02-09T05:29:00.000-08:00

Let the Madwalk report begin!

The show started with our beautiful presenters: Vicky Kaya, Kostas Martakis and Mary Synatsaki. They were so elegant and classy in their amazing dresses and costumes! Then, Elena Paparizou joined the stage, starting the show with Deux Hommes' beautiful collection, full of androgyne - style looks.

She rocked both stage and catwalk, as the Deux Hommes models did!

Madwalk by Vodafone 2012 | The Collage

2012-02-09T02:32:00.000-08:00

Hello there! Yesterday was the second Fashion Music Project, also called Madwalk, and of course I was there, thanks to Mad and their generous free ticket they sent me. This is a collage of the 9 fashion designers who participated in the event, stay tuned for details in my next posts! We're gonna discuss, one by one, not only the collection of each designer, but also the singers and the whole show!

S/S 2012 Best of | Bags

2012-02-09T00:42:00.000-08:00

Last but not least, the s/s 2012 bags. Aaah, bags... Our favorite excuse for spending money! We always think we don't have enough, even when it is obvious we already have enough pieces for every possible occasion. This season, there is a good chance for us to spend money on bags that we don't actually have already (yay!). Because, who of you has a bag that looks like a shell, like the Chanel ones? Or who owns a marmaid printed piece? Luckily for the small - bag lovers, this is your summer! I had a very hard time finding big bags to show you (like the right ones), since every catwalk was full of small, tiny clutches and purses. Also, super cute pieces are in fashion, full of girlie, pop prints!

What is your favorite?

S/S 2012 Best of | Shoes

2012-02-07T14:08:00.000-08:00

In order to close properly a s/s 2012 section, I have to show you my favourite shoes (and bags in the next post). This season you can find anything you want: peep toes, wedges, extreme shoes, simple yet classic, athletics, colourful, snakeskin printed. They all are fashion statement pieces, approppriate for any style, age or.. height! Try simple outfits combined with awesome shoes and there is your amazing fashionable outfit!

Valentine's Day is so close....

2012-02-06T15:00:00.000-08:00

...and I decided to present my favorite picks from some of my favourite greek brands: Buldoza.gr, myfashionfruit.com, accessorize.com and sparitual.com! Whether you'll celebrate on Valentine's day or not, this is your chance to choose girlie outfits full of red or pink colours, lace and animal prints. Go out with your boyfriend or perhaps choose a rockin' girls night out and.. who knows what will happen. For one thing, you'll be super stylish!

Headband, Essie nail polish, YSL - type ring and dress with lace on top from MyFashionFruit

Ankle booties, animal printed dress, red dress from Buldoza

Nail polishes from Sparitual

S/S 2012 trends | Inspired by the sea

2012-02-06T03:27:00.000-08:00

You all know the song "Under The Sea", from Little Mermaid, right? This is my soundtrack right now, it keeps spinning in my head while writing this post. Mermaids, sea horses, shells, starfish and sea creatures inspired Chanel, Mary Katrantzou and Prada for this season. The result is super cute, especially if you match this prints with pastel colours.

Totally recommended by SLF, this trend will take you far away: to Carribean, or perhaps to our beautiful greek islands!

Stylish friends

2012-02-05T13:01:00.000-08:00

These are two good friends of mine, Nicole and Irene, who I find really stylish. As you can see, they loved the maxi length trend and they created two very simple and chic outfits, without being boring! Nicole picked a jeans shirt and a maxi Zara skirt she was craving for almost 4 months! Irene, on the other hand, prefered the classic recipe, by choosing a loose, white shirt. Both of them look really great! They get 10/10 from SLF!

What's your rate??!

S/S 2012 trends | Shiny details

2012-02-05T02:56:00.000-08:00

Gold and silver, silver and gold. Whatever you choose, this is your time to transform a simple outfit into a fabulous one! For an everyday outfit, just add some golden or silver details such as bracelets and belts. Perhaps you can try the combination of jeans and gold, like Balmain did. If you want to shine at any party or event, simply choose a silver shirt to create a fabulous androgyne look, a fashion statement golden jacket or just sparkling high heels. I don't recommend total shiny looks, except if you're attending a very special occasion, but that's just me.

What about me? I definetely prefer golden details, I've had enough with silver the past few years!

S/S 2012 trends | Prints

2012-02-04T01:22:00.000-08:00

Ethnic, african, florals, pop art, vegetables. This spring anything is possible! Which is a good thing, since you can adjust this trend to your personal style and taste. Dolce & Gabbana showed prints influenced by the italian kitchen, Prada chose cars and pop attitude and our Mary Katrantzou amazed the fashion world with her digital prints.

What is your choice?

S/S 2012 trends | High waisted

2012-02-03T00:58:00.000-08:00

Well, high waisted skirts, pants or shorts were in fashion the last spring or winter seasons. This year, consider them a must look for all the fashionable girls out there, including you! If you haven't tried it, don't hesitate. They make your body look curvy, in a sexy way, plus they make you look cool at any time. This spring, designers suggest that we wear high waisted skirts (mostly) combined with a tiny shirt, a combination that leaves our belly uncovered. I'm not sure if I will try it, since I like my belly fully covered, but it looks kind of cool!

How about you??

S/S 2012 trends | Juicy colours

2012-02-02T03:47:00.000-08:00

Except for the pastels, we also saw many vivid, bright colours during s/s fashion weeks, although pastels were the winner. Red, orange, blue, green and yellow can take your outfit into the next level. They look perfect with your sexy tan and they can make you a fashion icon in like three seconds! I am sure you all remember that juicy colours were in fashion last summer, so it's a good thing that we don't actually need to buy new ones, we still have our last year's bright dresses and shorts! Our wallet should be extremely happy with this trend.

S/S 2012 trends | Buttoned collar

2012-02-01T00:49:00.000-08:00

My most favourite trend for this spring and summer: the buttoned collar is the easiest way to be in fashion! Plus, it's a cool way to match two or three different trends in just one outfit. You can choose from simple white shirts to pastel colours, or just try an interesting androgyne look. It looks super sexy, without even trying! Whether you try it in a casual everyday outfit or in the evening, it will look effortlessly cool.

S/S 2012 trends | Pastel colours

2012-01-30T00:45:00.000-08:00

Last year we had the vivid, juicy colours that could make the famous colour - blocking, remember? Well, this year fashion designers recommend to use pastel colours to make interesting, girlie colour - blocking combinations. Pink, green, yellow and blue are the main colours, as seen in so many catwalks. They remind me of macaroons or sorbet ice creams and I can't wait to wear a total pastel outfit.

The Greek Jewelry Girls

2012-01-27T13:58:00.000-08:00

When it comes to jewelry, I prefer wearing things that few girls have, rather than buy something from a mass market store, where you can see many girls wear the exact same thing. That way, I feel unique and special. If you are like me, I have 3 suggestions for you: GCreations, Ma Li Ya and Chee Chow make handmade pieces of art, usually vintage - like. Their prices are great, but you can always find amazing discounts like -30% or more in their facebook pages! Also, if you're obsessed with a particular theme, I'm sure they'll be more than happy to please you.

G Creations is all about yummy earrings, funny rings and cute bracelets or necklaces. Her talent is limitless.

Ma Li Ya is a huge success in jewelry design. You can find her in Meet Market and I totally recommend her for clever, fashion statement jewelry.

Chee Chow is not only about jewelry, you can also find awesome accesories, like vintage bags and other.

So why don't you check their collections and order your favourites?

The H&M sweater

2012-01-26T05:47:00.000-08:00

This is one of my favourites lately. You see, it can be worn as a top, keeping you warm during super cold days. It's so fluffy and leaves space for you to wear one million shirts underneath, without looking like a ball! It also looks great worn as a dress, with a colourful pair of tights and Uggs or any boot you like.

The Curve ID New Ankle Skinny Length jeans from Levi's.

2012-01-24T13:02:00.000-08:00

That was a long title for a pair of jeans, right? Well, I think it could be named just "The Miracle Jeans". Oh you know me, I'm miss All - My - Jeans - Are - Levi's! I can't wait for the s/s collection to launch, I'm definetely buying these jeans. They're skinny, they're colourful, they're the must - have look of the season!

Don't be afraid of the word "skinny". It is a Curve ID pair of jeans we're talking about. This means that it totally respects your curves, and "hugs" them in a unique way. The talented experts of Levi's have studied closely more than 60.000 (!) female body types and they finally managed to develop a new fit system named Curve ID.

Just been interviewed

2012-01-24T09:14:00.000-08:00

Photo taken by Yannis Papoutsakis

Ok "just" isn't the right word, the interview took place one day before I go to Rome, but that's ok! A brand new free press named BreakFree took an interview from me and other 4 fashion bloggers a couple of weeks ago and I think it's worth reading, so check it out!

Thanks BreakFree.com!

Shopping sunglasses in Rome.

2012-01-22T09:11:00.000-08:00

During my trip to Rome, I discovered the most amazing store ever. It's called Astrologo Ottica and is full of unique, amazing glasses. If you're done with wearing the same thing with others, if you love vintage - like stuff or you simply want an extraordinary pair of glasses, this is where you should go!

Wearing my brand new sunglasses, bought from Astologo Ottica

I know it's a bit far for most of you, but if you're Italian, have friends there, or just plan a trip to Rome.. don't forget to pay a visit! They're super kind and won't get tired of telling you the history behind of any pair of sunglasses!

Because, yeah, that's what I loved. It's not just a place with cool stuff. Many of the glasses are handmade, especially made for this store! Also, many artists have worked together to design many pairs, making every glass a work of art!

So, any visitors in this store, just say hello from me!

The Missoni nails

2012-01-18T12:46:00.000-08:00

Hello dear followers! I just ran into a beautiful site (perhaps you know it): The Beauty Department.com . There, I saw an amazing tip to accomplish the Missoni nails! It is impossible for me to do it, but if any of you is talented, I think you should try it! I'd love to see your attempts posted in the SLF facebook page !

Also, have you entered the Kate Moss giveaway?!

Mario Testino exhibition | Rome 2012

2012-01-14T07:03:00.000-08:00

Hello to all! I just returned to Greece from an amazing 6 - day - trip to Rome. I saw and did many things, and I returned brand new, ready for new things to come. While I was in Rome, I visited a great exhibition by Mario Testino, named Todo o Nada. "Todo" is clothing, "Nada" is nude.

The relationship between fashion photography and eroticism lies exactly here: at the heart of this exhibition and, as Mario Testino explains, Todo o Nada is a review of his work. For Testino, dressed and undressed represent covering and uncovered, artificial and nature, fiction and fact, mask and face. Moreover, Testino adds that could all be turned around, with Nada meaning fully dressed and Todo naked. Genius, huh?!

Stay tuned, because in a few days you will have the chance to win the Kate Moss picture, I bought it from the exhibition just for one lucky winner!

Simple and classy

2012-01-06T07:13:00.000-08:00

Dressing in a simple way doesn't mean you don't have style. Choose a classic total black outfit with golden details and boom! There's your fashion statement outfit! This is Jelena, whose style I adore. By the way, the skirt is from H&M and when I saw it I said " Oh my God! Are you wearing Prada??!" Check out Prada's winter collection and tell me: wouldn't you be confused, too?!

Yelena gets 10/10 from SmellsLikeFashion! What's your rate?!

Stathis Samantas s/s 2012

2012-01-04T14:52:00.000-08:00

I had another post in mind for today, but since I saw Stathis Samantas' new collection I couldn't resist. These are my 3 favourite pairs of his new collection and I am definetely gonna buy one of them. I love the attitude, the fabrics, the feminine style. Oh and the colour - blocking brogues are amazing. Excellent work, he is one of my favorite Greek shoe designers! Well done, Stathis! Always a fan.

New Year's Eve outfit

2012-01-02T00:00:00.000-08:00

Finally, after 1 full month, I got the chance to wear my Versace for H&M hearted dress. NYE was the perfect opportunity for me to rock this 60's - like - dress, since almost every girl at the party wore LDBs (Little Black Dresses) in every possible version. Oh and the ring is one of my favourites from Myfashionfruit.com, a gift from my beloved boyfriend!

2012!!

2012-01-01T04:48:00.000-08:00

Happy new year everybody!!! This is just a quick post from me and Cookie to wish you a new year full of happiness, love, joy, luck and days that smell like fashion!

The nail polish is a kind gift from Sparitual, which I received a couple of weeks ago! More in my next post!

Yesterday, as I was leaving from work, my lovely bosses from Buldoza.gr gave me a huge bag with a cool present! This amazing Glamorous dress, they knew I loved from the first time. Aww that was super kind! And so I left with a huge smile on my face.

New season

2011-12-27T03:51:00.000-08:00

Colour blocking by Lanvin (475 euros) , brogues by Esquivel (670 euros)

Hello there, I really hope you had a great X-mas day! As I was searching for some inspiration, I saw these beautiful shoes from Net-A-Porter ! When it comes to the left (the colour-blocking one), I know it's way too expensive for a casual pair of shoes, but I think it's an investment! As for the right pair, the pink brogues, it's a love at first sight, even though I don't like this kind of shoes!

What do you think?!

adidas Springmass: The outfit

2011-12-21T12:14:00.000-08:00

I've missed those adidas! It's been a while since I wore them for the last time. So, the adidas event was the perfect opportunity to wear them again!

The Shana Event

2011-12-18T04:27:00.000-08:00

That's Meni, a SLF reader - and a lucky one, apparently!

That's Elvira, one other SLF reader and a friend! The smile on her face after the event: priceless!

After the treatment by Freddy's team

of course, I had to try!

Elvira wearing Shana shirt, scarf and hat

Me wearing a Shana blazer

Me super happy with my press gift bag! Thank you all!
Dress : Zara, Headband : Accesorize, Ballet shoes : Sonia Rykiel, Tights : Calzedonia

As I'd told you, a few days ago the Shana event took place at Athens Metro Mall and SmellsLikeFashion gave to 5 winners the opportunity to attend. Not only they left the building looking even more fabulous, thanks to Freddy Kalobratsos team, but they also got a super gift bag!Oh I had to admit it: it was super fun, I got to meet so many interesting people! Many thanks to Concept Communication Stategies for this great opportunity! You rock, plus you organize the most fun events!

Adidas s/s 2012 : The event

2011-12-16T11:26:00.000-08:00

This was the first time I attended an Adidas event, but I knew from other bloggers that every event of the Adidas team is amazing! One thing is for sure: this time it was awesome! It took place at Hip Cafe, a beautiful place with a pop attitude, so perfect for this event. Except for the Adidas collection, there were other stuff, too! For example, you could make your own Adidas jewllery, with the help of two nice ladies. Of course, I took a shot!

Then, you could make your own cupcake and, believe me, it was so yummy! I was the first in line to try, I smiled when I saw all these candies.

Or, if you had done all or you just didn't want to make anything, you could eat all these super-wow cakes, cookies etc. Perfection.

Congratulations to the Adidas and Civitas team for this sweet event!

Adidas s/s 2012 : The collection

2011-12-14T16:56:00.000-08:00

Ok, first of all let me be clear about this. I am not a fan of athletic look! I am in love with ballerinas, ankle booties and All Stars and that's all. Well, from today I am fan of this style, especially if I'm dressed from head to toe in Adidas! No, these are not kind words for the brand, is the truth. Pop, retro and funky attitude. Splash of colours. Chic lines. Adidas' new collection is love at first sight, see for yourselves!

Fashion statement shoes by Jeremy! Wow.

Super pair of shoes, makes you effortless cool

A touch of yellow is more that welcome with this pair

Both dad and kido look cool (and mom, too! Why not?!)

Would you dare to wear a gorilla?!

Pink, guitar and music. What's more perfect than this?

Chic and cool for our lovely boys

The Michael Jackson jacket, as I call it.

David is also a designer in Adidas s/s 2012 collection.

Simple n' chic comes from David's line.

Loved those sandals, they're so unique and pretty.

It's the first time a pair of athletic shoes scream "buy me, buy me!". Well, I will.

These babies are made to upgrade your outfit in a bit! Wishlist check.

The Stella McCartney bag. Juicy like a peach!

The Stella McCartney corner was full of simple, minimal lines and nude colours.

Hot shorts for the summer

Too athletic? With this colour, it can be worn anytime!

So? Love it or not?

My first X-mas gift by GoldenBrands

SLF is your Santa

2011-12-05T13:37:00.000-08:00

Hello lovelies. I hope you're fine! Well I have a small surprise for you: a Giveaway , my way of wishing Merry Christmas! This cute necklace will give you good luck for the new year and will make a pretty fashion statement.

Stavroula Michalopoulou is the creator of this charm, and also the owner of Synthesi. Synthesi is a brand where you can find beautiful x-mas cards, great charms that bring luck and cool decoratives ! I discovered her during my visit to Riverwest, a shopping mall next to IKEA at Egaleo, Greece. She holds a x-mas kiosk inside the mall that caught my eye and sells very pretty things from charms to accessories, all hand-made. You should also check and support her facebook page, but I strongly believe you have to visit her kiosk! Part of the revenues are donated to Floga, an organization dedicated to children with cancer.

So here's the thing. You have a chance to support Floga and Synthesi's work, to wear a cool necklace or perhaps give it to your best friend! The steps are really simple and I'm sure many of you have done most of them:

Write a comment with your e-mail and a x-mas wish (so that it can start smelling like..Christmas!)
Like my facebook page by clicking here!
And of course, follow my blog!

Good luck to everyone, the giveaway winner will be anounced on 15th December 2011!

Marni for H&M s/s 2012

2011-11-29T00:55:00.000-08:00

I have to stop posting about H&M, but I just can't do, I always have exciting news to share with you! This time an e-mail arrived saying "Marni For H&M". I blinked. Marni is one of my favorite fashion brands and you can imagine who will be the first to buy some Marni polka dots next March.

Marni s/s 2012

This new collection will include, of course both men and women sections, and will be launched on 8th March 2012 in more than 260 H&M stores and online (yay). One thing is sure about this colletion: there will be lots of prints! You know Consuelo Castiglioni, she's a print master. I will leave you smile like crazy for this collaboration, here's a video about the Marni For H&M collection, you got to check it out!

Don't forget to like my facebook page, you can find a whole photo album full of Marni For H&M pictures and ispiration!

Summer + H&M = Heaven

2011-11-26T02:26:00.000-08:00

A few days ago I entered H&M's showroom and suddenly all I could see was colour! Pink, blue, yellow! Most of the clothes were classic with a modern twist, due to the funky colours, but they were also some all time classics, perfect for those who prefer a minimal look. When it comes to fabrics, I was surprised to see a big variety from silk, leather and more!

I also liked the shoes, they are perfection and seem really easy to walk. Yay, one extra point from SLF to H&M!

When it comes to accesories, you can find your dream piece, there's something here for everyone! Golden details, pop colours, girlie necklaces.

So in general, did I like the collection? Yeap, I want almost every single piece in my closet, but especially the white leather jacket and the neon-coloured dress.

The event was also great and very well organized. These H&M girls- Mariza and Anna- are amazing, so cute and funny, and they do a really great job every single time! Plus, I loved the finger food and the champagne!!

Thalia's amazing necklace

Can't wait to hear your thoughts about the collection and don't forget to like my facebook page, so that you can check the rest of the photos!

Happy B-day!

2011-11-24T01:06:00.000-08:00

Today is my B-day and this is my surprise birthday cake that my boyfriend gave to me! Aww. I know this has nothing to do with fashion, although you can see the Chanel shopping bag and the Versace goodie bag behind so it's kind of related, haha!

H&M is a word I use often lately..

2011-11-22T13:28:00.000-08:00

..More than my own name, actually. First things first, I promised you my Versace for H&M outfit and here it is. Click here for more details, since I was featured in Queen.gr Street Fashion section for the second time! In a few words, I just picked my most favourite jacket of all times: the Moschino one! It's perfect, so classy and so my style! I'm telling you, it can become from rock to chic in like 3 seconds!

And speaking of Versace for H&M, did you know that this collaboration isn't over?! That's right, my beloved readers! Versace just announced the s/s 2012 collaboration with H&M, a collection that will be launched this February! Girlie cherries, hot style and shining details will be ready to make a huge fashion statement! I couldn't be more excited, I love Versace.

And speaking of s/s H&M collections, I have great news for you. I just was invited to the press preview of the s/s 2012 H&M collection, which will take place on Thursday (on my birthday - thanks H&M for making my bday even better). So prepare yourselves for super cool photos. Well, that's all. Ciao for now and let me know what do you think of my outfit and the s/s versace for H&M pics.

The pink scarf

2011-11-19T07:53:00.000-08:00

For a cool visit at Akropolis, I chose a warm deep purple coat, my favourite skinny jeans and a pink scarf to add some colour in my outfit. Lately, I have a thing with scarves and I wear them all day long! They keep you warm, plus they're a pretty fashion statement.

Here's a cool video I found, it shows 25 ways to wear a scarf! You should check it out, it really helps! Well, if you remember the "how to" part.

Have a great weekend and don't forget to like my facebook page! Kisses!

Versace for H&M | Press Day

2011-11-15T14:23:00.000-08:00

Today was the exclusive press day for the Versace feat H&M new collection, and I was lucky enough to be invited! Normally, I don't support this kind of collections, since I don't like being pushed while shopping, or being dressed like all the other women. Obviously, today was an exception so here is my report of the event and, of course, the clothes.

To begin with, all clothes and accessories are lovely. I liked the fabrics and I have to say that whichever piece you choose, it will look great on you. As for the dresses and skirts, there are some all time classics and many fashion statement pieces, which is always great. Also, in this collection you'll find shining bracelets, cool belts, printed scarves and super high heels, pieces you can find pretty easily despite the madness that exists!

Because, yeah, if you decide to visit H&M that day (18th of November that is) madness is a fact. Pushing, running, and screaming about who-got-what-first is necessary if you want to buy what you are craving for. Madness was a fact today, too, even though I thought that it'd be more civilized. Obviously I was wrong, but I have to point out that this wasn't fault of the event planner. Everyone who worked today about this event was super kind and helpful!

Moschino jacket, LEVI's jeans, Nine West wedges, Juicy Couture bag and Alexander McQueen tee

My sweet friend Suzanna

Sotiris (aka the DREAMER) and me posing

Anyway, I was fast enough to buy my dream dress of this collection and I'm very happy about it. Yay!

My goodie bag including a really cool notebook, press realeses and H&M lookbooks

So I guess that's all, stay tuned for my outfit post by my dear friend Sotiris Trechas (the DREAMER) and good luck to all of you who are visiting H&M to buy your dream piece of the Versace For H&M collection. A million thanks to Anna Kotsareli and her team who invited me!

Versace for H&M | Wishlist

2011-11-04T10:47:00.000-07:00

Hello dears! Well, Versace for H&M official realease date is almost here and I couldn't help but posting my favourite pieces. You know me, "classy with a modern twist" is my style and these pieces are exactly that. Simple, classy and wearable clothes, shoes and accesories with a little bit of Versace details. What I'm craving for ,though, are the pink sandals, the leather jacket and the LTB with the modern cuts. I'm so anxious to learn your favourite pieces, too!

Never serious.

2011-11-01T14:45:00.000-07:00

Matina, Chara and Stephanie, who maybe will kill me after they see this post. Well, maybe they won't. But they're going to laugh so much!

Fashion blogging is not only about writing your thoughts when it comes to fashion, attending events or posing. It's about meeting people, making friends and being crazy. In my life nothing is important when you don't laugh. Nothing matters if you're not yourself. Well, here we are. Some crazy bloggers on duty during 10th AXDW. Enjoy our happy faces. These moments will last forever.

Fashion Week means inspiration

2011-10-31T14:31:00.000-07:00

Some details that caught my attention during 10th AXDW. Girls (and boys) like these always inspire me and that's why I love street fashion. Enjoy!

10th AXDW | Outfit number 2

2011-10-30T05:42:00.000-07:00

Jeans: Abercrombie & Fitch, cardigan : Blanco, inside tee: McQ from Metropolitan Museum

Double ring: MyFashionFruit. DUKAS pink bracelet, bracelet Accesorize, friendship brcalet from NY, flats: Sonia Rykiel

For the second day of the AXDW I said "no" to high heels and I prefered a pair of ballet flats. Since I was planning to dress up really simply, I decided to wear Tasos' cardigan and I have to admit that it looked really cool.

10th AXDW | The Buldoza.gr corner

2011-10-28T03:51:00.000-07:00

Buldoza.gr was an AXDW sponsor and supported New Designers Day, as we've said. During AXDW anyone could find me at the Buldoza.gr corner, either giving interview to my beloved Victoria, drinking cosmopolitan with the buldoza.gr guys or taking photos with my favourite blogger friends. I am a member of the Buldoza.gr team since July and I feel so proud, I love it there.

With Stephanie and Konstantina

So thanks, buldoza.gr!

10th AXDW | Day one | Details

2011-10-27T04:59:00.000-07:00

Oh wow, I haven't had an outfit post since.. really long. Shame on me. This is my outfit for the first day of AXDW. In every fashion week I choose casual chic outfits, as comfortable as they get. I love dresses etc, but they're not the perfect clothes when you have to take 2 buses and 2 trains to get to the AXDW building.

Leather jacket and jeans bought from Florence in 2009, shirt Tally Weijl, booties Nine West Boutique 9 collection

Friendship bracelet and ring bought from NY in June, golden bracelet from Accesorize, sun glasses from Chanel

Another outfit and detail post coming really soon. When it comes to Day 1, all I have to say is that we hadso much fun. Love you all!

10th AXDW | New Designers Day | Zina Glou

2011-10-27T01:31:00.000-07:00

Ok I think we're about to finish with AXDW posts, this is one of the last ones! So here we have Zina Glou, a talented girl who won the Buldoza.gr award and very soon you'll be able to find her creations online! I'll make sure you'll find out more. This is great for a young designer, a huge oppportunity and I wish her all the best!

Her show was really good, it had modern and classic details at the same time. I enjoyed her florals, her cute dresses and the girlie attitude!

Well done!

10th AXDW | New Designers Day | Tammy's Archive

2011-10-26T01:07:00.000-07:00

Pin up girls were all over the catwalk, posing for us. Wow, this was amazing! Although I'd look ridiculous dressed like that, I always dreamed to become one pin up girl someday! Tammy's Archive presented a s/s collection full of florals, 50's skirts and sexy attitude.

Loved it. What do you think?

10th AXDW | Erotokritos

2011-10-25T14:50:00.000-07:00

Erotokritos' show was really great! I liked the pretty skirts and shirts, the pop colours, the attitude! In his latest s/s 2012 collection you can find the perfect pieces that make a huge fashion statement without being too much. Great floral blazers, printed high-waist skirts, cool stripes and puffy shoulders are must haves for every summer.

10th AXDW | Day three | Ourania_Kay

2011-10-25T07:28:00.000-07:00

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to attend the 3rd day of Athens Xclusive Designers Week, due to some difficulties I had. But, thank goodness, my dear friend Tasos from PoshFashionNews allowed me to use his pictures so that I can show them to you!

Here we have Ourania's new s/s 2012 collection and I was really surprised when I first saw it, through Tasos' website! I expected black, leather and rock attitude like her previous collections but Ourania proved me wrong! In her new collection grey and yellow were the main colours! Girlie and chic clothes, totally wearable, certainly my style.

Read Tasos' post for more, all I can say is congratulations to our girl and sorry I wasn't there!

10th AXDW | New Designers Day | Maraveya

2011-10-24T10:03:00.000-07:00

Another great show was the one by Maraveya. Nude colours, minimal styling, all time classic choices. Well done!

10th AXDW | New Designers Day | Lila Nova

2011-10-24T07:34:00.000-07:00

The second day of every AXDW is dedicated to young talented designers, who present their first (usually) collection. This year, this day was powered by Buldoza.gr and I feel so proud of that, since I'm a member of the Buldoza Team.

So this is one of my favourite catwalks from that day! Lila Nova is a beautiful girl and won the Best Trendsetter Award of this season! Wow, that's great! In her collection we saw pure geometry, pastel colours and cute dresses.

What impressed me the most were the pretty details that transformed every piece into a fashion statement outfit.

Congratulations Nina!

10th AXDW | Day two | Corbo

2011-10-23T16:00:00.000-07:00

The last year's Best Trendsetter Award winner, Corbo, showed today a brand new s/s 2012 collection. Minou, the designer of the brand, a really sweet girl, did her best and the result is actually awesome!

Corbo's minimalism, colours, lines are stunning and all together create unique, special and cool clothes.

Always a fan of wearable clothes, I got excited for obvious reasons! Oh, my wardrobe would love every single piece of this collection, especially that orange maxi skirt!

Congrats to Minou and to all those who worked really hard for this show. Thank you for this great time we had!

10th AXDW | Day One | Stelios Koudounaris

2011-10-23T02:32:00.000-07:00

The greek Marc Jacobs? No. The greek Christopher Bailey? No. Well, Stelios Koudounaris is a new kind of designers, he can't be compared to anyone. I think this is the best thing it can happen to anyone: being so unique and have nothing similar to you, rocks! His work is amazing, he always presents sexy clothes that are so chic and classy and have a cool feminine touch. Just take a look at his new s/s 2012 collection named Entropia and you'll know what I mean.

Totally wearable clothes that scream "Buy me! Wear me! Make me your second skin!". Nude colours, always in fashion. Full buttoned collars, which is the biggest trend for next season. Stelios manages to associate the worldwide fashion trends with the way Greek women dress.

Women? Stelios satisfied men, too. He presented cool, loose, college - like clothes, that I'm sure many guys out there will like! Men are always a tough audience, but Stelios Koudounaris did his best and the result is amazing in an obvious way.

What impressed me, apart from all these, were the details and, especially, the back of every shirt. Wow.

Enjoy!!

10th AXDW | Day One | JEANS

2011-10-23T01:13:00.000-07:00

So yesterday the Athens Xclusive Designers Week started and I'm so excited! Please stay tuned for all AXDW post, there are going to be.. many! I'll try to post as soon as possile for every designer.

Anyway, here we go: the very first 10th AXDW post, which is about Jeans. I remind you that last year Jeans had won the Best Catwalk award at New Designers Awards day. Well, Antonis Spathas, the designer of this brand, proved that he deserved the prize and this year showed an even more amazing collection.

He stayed faithful to his concept (clothes that can be transformed into a total different style) and almost all his clothes were wearable. Last year he was good, this year he is great, next year.. What? Amazing?! I really wish him all the best and I believe in him.

See how simple is to transform your clothes? That way you buy one and you actually have two (or even three) pieces! Genius.

You know, it must feel really good to make everyone inside the room smile happily, especially when you're presenting your second collection! I know I couldn't stop smiling and thinking " Oh my God, this is great! oh no wait, this is great" !

So, well done Antonis Spathas! I'm fully satisfied by this show!

What about you, guys? What's your favourite piece of his collection?

Levi's Exclusive Press Day

2011-10-20T15:47:00.000-07:00

Well today was the Levi's Exclusive Press Day and CONCEPT Communication Strategies guys were kind enough to invite me. Prepare yourselves for a long post and lots of photos! Oh and I suggest you should check out every link, in order to understand more about Levi's Campaign.

To begin with I have to say that I really enjoyed this event, because it had it all: fashion, marketing, social media campaigns, awareness about the environment. This Levi's "meeting" started with Charles Bukowski's poem " The Laughing Heart" in order to pass the hope and outline the worldwide campaign "Now Is Our Time" with the motto "Go Forth". This motto made me smile, considering all this chaos that's going on in Greece lately and I thought that actually now is our (my generation's) time.

Anyway, then I was surprised to find out that Levi's is a company that really cares about environmental issues, a company that decides to do something instead of staring at the problems. So what did they do? They presented Water.org and actually managed to provide clean water to more than 8000 people for the rest of their lives! Wow. But we have more. Levi's is constantly informing people about global issues such as water and its' excessive use and, to support this commitment, recently presented the WaterLess jeans. Here we have the video about the WaterLess collection, don't forget to check it out!

What I loved about this part of the Levi's Press Day is that Levi's is a company that really understands the power of social media and bases almost every campaign on facebook or twitter. If you don't think that this is successful, let me inform you that the Go Forth campaign gathered more that 7.3 million facebook friends all over the world! Levi's is also a company that cares about many more global issues, such as poverty, HIV/AIDS, education. I totally reccommend you to check out Thanda.org, you'll be amazed about Levi's work on these issues.

Enough about all these, let's move on to the fashion part of the event. Today, we had the chance to take a first look at Levi's s/s 2012 collection. I liked almost everything, but I have to admit I fell in love with the denim dresses and I'm definetely gonna buy one of those next spring.

I can assure you that Levi's is an excellent denim wear brand and you can find amazing stuff in their collections. Apart from this, I'm impressed about this brand because of this motto "It's not about the size, it's about the shape". Girls, love yourselves. Who cares if you're fat, or skinny, or tall or short? The thing is to have confidence and love your body the way it is!

Tally Weijl jacket, D&G tee, MyFashionFruit bag

Friendship bracelet from NY, Accesorize bracelet, vintage ring from NY, Levi's jeans

Brand new wedges from Nine West ,Boutique 9 collection

Last but not least, the outfit posts with my lovely Posh Fashion boy, whom I love!

This pretty boy spoils me, he just gave me his lurex cardigan as a gift, inside of a Mary Katrantzou bag! Aww.

Long post, right?! Told you so. Stay tuned for Greek Fashion Week, it's starting in 2 days. Yuhuu.

Brand new

2011-10-19T02:38:00.000-07:00

This is my brand new bracelet from Accesorize, a sweet vacation - inspired golden baby! I love it so much because it's so damn cute, but also because it's the first thing I bought with my own money. Aww!

Delight s/s 2012

2011-10-18T04:51:00.000-07:00

You cannot imagine how sad I was when I learned that Delight won't show their new collection at Athens Fashion Week after all. I don't know the reasons but I hope everything is ok with this amazing duo. Anyway, here you can see their s/s 2012 collection as they presented it to us via facebook!

I loved the colours, the lines and the fabrics! As I always say, Delight is one of my favourite greek brands, I believe in them, they make us feel proud of our country. Delight's collections seem like they'd fit more in a Milan fashion week than in a greek catwalk.

Totally wearable clothes, perfect for every age!

A perfect way to start your winter

2011-10-14T10:25:00.000-07:00

Aah, I should have shot "before and after pictures" for this post, you should see the smile in my face when I recieved this beautiful McQueen type clutch from MyFashionFruit! You know MyFashionFruit, right? It's an amazing online shop where you can find breathtaking accesories, great bags and cool clothes. Anyway, yesterday I ordered this gorgeous bag and today I recieved it! Wow that was quick.

The cool part, except from the bag, is that I got an amazing double ring as a gift! Wow that was kind.

So what are you waiting for? Order a treat for yousrelves, too! I promise, you're gonna love this site. I know I did!

10th AThens Xclusive Designers Week

2011-10-13T03:13:00.000-07:00

I sipmly can't wait until next Saturday! I'd love to see what Ourania_Kay, Celebrity Skin, JEANS and Stelios Koudounaris will present for next spring/summer! Stay tuned for exclusive photos from the runway!

Simoni's gift

2011-10-10T01:15:00.000-07:00

Imagine my happiness when I opened the mailbox some days ago and I discovered this cool gift by Simoni! With many things going on in my life lately, I had completely forgotten about this, so it was a pleasant surprise!

Thank you Simoni, I can't wait to try them on!

Loveable collection | Louis Vuitton s/s 2012

2011-10-08T08:16:00.000-07:00

Although I'm not Louis Vuitton's biggest fan, I must admit that Marc did his miracle. Again. From total sexy, S&M looks (fall/winter 2011 - 2012) he went to girlie, princess-like outfits. Of course, Kate Moss was a star once again for his spring collection.

LV f/w 2011 - 2012

What I liked in his latest collection? Well, everything. The pastels, the tiaras, the flower printed jackets.

LV s/s 2012

So what Louis Vuitton girl are you? Are you a f/w or a s/s girl? I'm definetely the last one!

Mary Katrantzou for Longchamp

2011-10-04T13:46:00.000-07:00

Wow, this is exciting! One of my favourite designers, Mary Katrantzou, is collaborating with Longchamp and the result is amazing. This capsule collection is, by far, my favourite and I can't wait to buy one of them.

The prints are awesome. Katrantzou's work is unbelievable, she has so fresh ideas, she is unique and that's why we feel proud about her!

Which is your favourite?

Coolest jewellery (for the unruly) ever

2011-10-03T08:02:00.000-07:00

The last couple of weeks I find myself obsessed with accesories, jewellery and stuff. I keep dreaming about buying many fashion statement rings and necklaces, but I don't know the reason! If I could, I'd buy the whole Me & Zena stock! Are you familiar with this brand? It's an accesories brand based in London, full of cute stuff like TVs, robots, bunnies and abstract prints.

The cool part is that they're pretty cheap and totally affordable. The cooler part is that, if you live in Greece, you can find the new collection at Buldoza.gr! Oh and I love the brand's motto: "Jewellery for the unruly". So, if you want to be a part of the unruly fashion idols, you should invest on those cuties.

Which is your favourite? Mine is the I See You Hexagon ring and the spaceship!

Favourite Fashion Statement Pieces | Dolce & Gabbana

2011-09-29T03:31:00.000-07:00

Dolce & Gabbana is one of my favourite collections this winter. The fashion duo designed many fashion statement pieces, that can lift off your outfit, no matter how simple that is. Try a pair of shoes or a bag full of music prints and match it with a simple, total black outfit. You'll be surpirised by how cool you'll look!

What I also loved about the Dolce & Gabbana f/w collection is this: classic pieces, like brogues and androgyne jackets, with a modern twist. I believe you should buy one of these babies. If you can't affrord a Dolce&Gabbana brogue/jacket, I'm sure Zara, H&M and other stores will be full of them.

So, to sum up, this winter try fashion statement pieces. You don't have to spend all your money, just choose some stars, animal prints and shining dresses to add to your outfit!

What do you think?

Who doesn't love mermaids?

Versace s/s 2012

Fall/Winter 2011 - 2012 | The longer the better

2011-09-25T07:13:00.000-07:00

So this is the final hottest - trends - of - this - season post, and let me present you the long coats and XXL jackets! It's a trend I really liked and I'm gonna follow this winter.

Jean Paul Gaultier

When it comes to coats, fashion brands like Chanel, Dior, DsQuared2 and Marc by Marc Jacobs suggest we pick long coats, that seem like long, beautiful dresses. They're excellent for evening outfits, plus they keep you super warm.

Chanel

Dior

DsQ2

Marc by Marc Jacobs

If you need something for everyday outfits, a great solution is a minimal coat, more like what we saw at Celine's catwalk.

Then, we have XXL jackets, my favourite style these days. You can choose between jackets in a bigger size from what you use to wear, or long ones, at least longer than usual.

D&G

Dolce & Gabbana

Louis Vuitton

Jackets like these make a huge fashion statement with no effort at all. I suggest you pick an XXL jacket in a bright colour and total black outfit. So cool!

Dolce & Gabbana

I'm super excited for this winter, are you?

Fall/Winter 2011 - 2012 | Snake Skin

2011-09-21T03:35:00.000-07:00

So snake skin is the new animal print. It was everywhere at fall/winter catwalks, in so many different options. It's the type of print that you can wear pretty easily and will give you the opportunity to make a huge fashion statement. And, for the history, you can find amazing snake skin pieces at ZARA's new collection!

Check how our favorite brands give us solutions on how to wear snake skin. First of all, you can wear a beautiful snake skin dress, a simple and chic way to stay in fashion.

Chloe f/w 2011-2012

Just Cavalli f/w 2011-2012

Then, we have snake skin coats, which is a little more difficult and a bit risky if you are afraid that it might not be in fashion next year.

Chloe f/w 2011-2012

Prada f/w 2011-2012

Last but not least, you can always buy a snake skin pair of shoes, or maybe a bag. That way you can achieve quickly and easily the hottest trend for this fall, plus a buy like this is always welcome.

Prada f/w 2011-2012

Valentino f/w 2011-2012

Oh and I think you should invest on snake skin, since it's going to be a big trend for next summer! How cool is that?!

So what do you think? How will you wear this trend?

So yesterday Vogue's FNO took place in Athens and I wouldn't miss it! Me and 2 of my favourite bloggers and friends, Stephanie and Matina, were there and we had such a great time. Here we have some pictures from yesterday, so you can see what was like, but don't worry! More pictures coming soon!

Fall/Winter 2011-2012 | New Sleeves

2011-09-13T02:40:00.000-07:00

Burberry

So this year we have a new trend, which has to do with our sleeves. Well, the new sleeves are usually shorter than usual and balloon - shaped. I think this trend refers to 60's, but I can't be sure. You know me, I'm miss I-cofuse-60's-with-40's!

Chloe

Louis Vuitton

Prada

Anyway, I'm in love with this trend, although I wouldn't wear it, since I have a thing with short sleeves on me. If you see all my coats or shirts, they all cover my fingers!

Marc Jacobs

Viktor&Rolf

How do you feel about this trend? Will you try it and see what happens??

Fall Winter 2011 - 2012 | Fur

2011-09-09T13:11:00.000-07:00

Loewe

There is no doubt for this season's biggest trend. And that is fur. You can find it in so many styles, attitudes, colours. Fur is hotter that ever!

Celine

So we have many fur - options, as I said. There is fur that reaches your ankles, like Just Cavalli and DsQuared2 suggested.

Just Cavalli

DsQ2

There is also fur for all those who prefer girlie looks, as Moschino or Dior showed in their catwalks. You can achieve this look by either picking a coat with fur in cute colours like light gray, pink and white, or by choosing girlie - like coats. It'll be super cute, plus you can wear it all winter no matter how old you are.

Moschino

Dior

But this is what I loved and what I'll do to keep up with this trend, since I don't like fur: accesories with fur! Shoes, bags, scarves, you name it!

Marc by Marc Jacobs

Louis Vuitton

Fendi

So how do you feel about this huge trend? Do you like fur?

Fall Winter 2012 trends | Orange

2011-09-05T01:05:00.000-07:00

D&G

You all know that this summer ,one of the most popular colour trends was orange. Luckily for all of us, who loved it and wore it, orange is still hot for this winter, too.

Burberry

Lanvin

This time is a deep orange, more like a bright brown, an excellent colour to create many different styles. Orange may be the key for a great 40's look, like Miu Miu suggests.

Miu Miu

Or maybe a super pop look, like the Prada and Sonia Rykiel ones. They are so great!

Prada

Sonia Rykiel

But the best way to wear this colour is, I think, the Celine (or Bottega Veneta) way: a beautiful long orange jacket to keep you warm and stylish during this cold season! I'm definetely buying one of these babies!

Celine

Bottega Veneta

Fendi orange tights, a cool solution for those who think orange may be too much for winter outfit

Do you think orange is too much for a winter outfit?!
