Some days ago i received an email from a very supportive SoHo Symposium reader, asking me in a very sweet way, how to wear over the knee socks! She also wanted to know what colors are the best and with which clothes they can be worn!
As you can guess, i couldn't drop the challenge, and i responded to her immediately that i would do my best to help her! So here i am writing this post...about SOCKS!
In the pictures above there are shown all the ways to wear knee socks successfully. That means that for a look that doesn't have the intention to be extravagant the black color is the most secure option! Also, for the ones who want to devote to this new trend, the length of the cloth above has to be selected carefully. As you cover a very long area of leg, it doesn't harm to wear mini skirts or shorts, but beware that in the market you'll find all sorts...of shorts!! So for me, the best skirt is the one that is called tulip, and as for shorts..the ones that are not tight-tight (my english fluency always amazes me) ! As for shoes, i think that you can wear anything you want, but i have to say that i prefer wearing them, with mid-high boots and also with shoe boots so as to create a more romantic style! Hmm.. let me think for more infos..oh yes! You also have to pay attention to the upper part of your body...Because over the knee socks -for the ones that are not skinny- mean that they can create a sexy-plexy look, pleazzz don't show any more skin above! Be as conservative as your parents would want you to be and let the socks do their miracles!...and for the ones that forget easily, this is the way that i styled my knee socks in an older post (

Just found it and i had to immediately share it with you! Crazy or NOT i like it! Now, we are going to discover if Lady Gaga reads this blog or not...because if she does, you know what she'll wear next!
Say hello to my new baby!!! As i have mentioned in some older post, i have started sewing lessons, and after learning how to use these babes, it was time to get one for myself!!!
Do you remember this post ??? From the first moment i bought that H&M t-shirt and still, it hangs in my closet like the most precious item around! As you can imagine i just gasped when i discovered this amazing D.I.Y! The sleeves are off and in their place a sheer fabric is placed!
As i promised..here is the second post about the Whitebox event, held on Sunday! In the first pic you see the amazing Georgia Kotsiopoulou, responsible for our make-up! I gave her complete freedom and it was actually the FIRST time i ever had my lips painted THAT red! As Georgia says..red is indeed a challenge!
Most probably you've already seen the Alecca Rox cover of the WhiteBox event, so i'm going to be brief! Me, Thalia from Life in Athens and Christiana from Fashion Paths were the "guests of honor" of the event as Alecca named us!
