I always enjoy Meet Markets but this time I loved it even more as I had the chance to meet new designers that I haven't seen in Meet Markets of the past, see what they have all created for the Fall season, meet friends, do some handmade/vintage shopping and also have a nice Saturday afternoon coffee (at the Six Dogs marvelous garden)!

I also met for the first time the Wear Vintage duo despite the fact that we have talked in the past and as I loved Anthi's outfit, I found it appropriate enough to not photograph anyone else but her!

P.S. As for what I shopped..it will be revealed in another post!

Fashion's Night Out 2010

If you follow my blog from my very first steps, you must remember by now, last year's Fashion's Night Out experience! It was one of a kind as it was the first time that something HUGE was organized and fashion bloggers were really involved! We had a meeting at the Vogue headquarters and we were among the brand contributors of the event!... Of course the best thing was that a bunch of stylish girls entered and left as more shops as they could in order to get the overall feeling! And to top that, people stopped us in the streets to ask what all that was about! Our answers? "It's Fashion's Night Out" and we loved it!

Now a year later, I'm hoping that more and more shops will realize that in times like these, they really have to take advantage of "happenings" like these if they want to drag people inside their stores! The difference between last year and this year -regarding me- is that this time, I'm not going to stroll around the streets in search of interesting findings! And no I wasn't contacted by Vogue either!

Instead you will be able to find me along with fellow blogger Thalia at Benetton and Sisley stores at Skoufa str from around 19,30 and until 21.00 o'clock! Come and meet us and don't be shy to talk to us...we will be shyer for sure! We will be able to view together the Fall/Winter collections and then chat, dance and eat the sweet Brigante treats!

It's Fashion's party and you are all invited!

p.s. plus you have a 10% discount in all Benetton/Sisley items -not bad if you ask me!-

UPDATE-Athena is going to be among us,too! Yeahhh!

Oh waiter give me that apron!

Last week, DElight duo had a special party at Six D.O.G.S. as they have designed especially and exclusively the staff's.. aprons!

"Oh yes, it's that unfair! The waitress has a designer piece on her, while I'm wearing H&M?"

Fair or unfair, I've had a great time along with my beloved fellow bloggers! Among them, Thalia actually caught Dafni wearing the apron and Miss Athenes caught me (!!), wearing my H&M!

...And as for the aprons, as I didn't exactly see them closely last Tuesday, DElight were polite enough to send me the first pics of them just for your pleasure!

Who said that a waiter can't be DElighted?

Two days ago I visited the showroom of a certain brand and had the opportunity to view the entire Fall/Winter 2010-11 collection before some pieces even hit the stores! I fell completely in love with this dress in particular as it has the peeerfect fit! Can you spot the dress? Can you guess what's coming?

Well, be patient, in a couple of days I'll reveal it all!

Sometimes you need Erin...

...photographed for a look book, in order to search a little bit more about that brand with the never-heard-before- name! Scanlan & Theodore is -oh! what a surprise- an Australian label and their Spring/Summer 2011 collection is exactly what I would love to wear (take a look here)!

Yes I know, I should be focusing on the new season that is about to begin, but it's actually amazing that I found YET another Australian fashion label to love in just 10 days!

(Scroll down and discover Karla Spetic, the other Australian designer that I discovered a few days ago)

Back to School!

It's no secret, some months ago I was one of the first to inform you of the Greek Ebay market's opening! I still find that trip to Zurich one of the best things that I had the opportunity to do thanks to this blog and today that I found some free time I decided to take a look at Ebay again in search of "New Season" items!

It's actually the first year that I'm not returning back to school/uni, but it seems to me that this time I'm in more need of finding new inspirations, new clothes and styles to wear and new items to buy! So above, you can see some of my "want/need" items of the moment!

1. Mary Katrantzou/Topshop shirt (that I now regret of not having bought back then),
2. Essie Fall 2010 Collection of Nail Polishes,
3. my brand new bike (that I need to get out in the streets),
4. an Iphone Case Cover (despite the fact that I don't own it yet, an Iphone is soon to be mine so it needs to be protected),
5. a memory card for my camera (as I'm one of those that can't erase photos from their camera, but prefer to buy one more..memory card instead!),
6. 3-D glasses (for being able to watch movies but also read editorials like...this) ,
7. a brand new camera and...my new obsession:
8. a satchel bag like the one that Alexa Chung holds all the time!

September at the Park

It is quite amazing but parks in the center of Athens DO exist!.. And I was amazed to discover this particular park today despite the fact that I pass right in front of it every morning and afternoon on my way to and back from my work!

Situated at "Megaro Mousikis", today I found my secret garden and I took good advantage of it as I was along with a friend and able to take some proper outfit pics! From head to toe:

tee from SWAP (Swap Not Shop)
skirt from TUBE
jelly shoes
and "b." bag...

...that has become my new best friend as from the moment that I bought it, it goes everywhere with me! b. is a well-known Greek graffiti artist and you can find his canvas bags at Metropolis Concept Store in an astonishing price!
