Shopping is fun,right? Ok ok most of the times. At least it's fun if you're not bored,anxious or nervous. Because i assure you-from personal experience-that shopping in the above situations most of the times ends in "what the h@$ll did i buy" expressions! Now imagine that you're in a happy mood and you want to go shopping! And while downtown you find all shops open, with DJ sets playing up-beat music, bar tenders willing to give you free drinks, even sweet girls offering you ice-creams! And imagine, that you start exploring each and every shop with all your fellow fash-blogger friends and that Vogue photographers take pictures of you and people stop you to ask what all this is about. And on your way to Observatory where a live catwalk took place, you saw celebrities just outsite the shops (like Tamta outside .Lak) and that the shop windows instead of dummies had real life models!! AND IMAGINE that all this, ended up in a major party at CityLink where common people and fashion people, all danced and drunk their chocolate martini's together! OK, now you get the idea of what Fashion's Night Out was it all about! (all pictures taken by me except of the set of pictures with Tamta and Polina Sarri-Glamour's editor in chief that i borrowed from Fashion Paths, if you use please credit)

Greece takes part in the global VOGUE celebration of Fashion. Almost each and every store downtown will have special events and at the end of the night, all people will gather up at CityLink (Boukourestiou str) where DJ's, live bands and LIVE CATWALK will take place! I'm happy to announce that Greek Fashion Bloggers will highly participate at this event, so tomorrow night you'll see our familiar faces wondering around the streets and stores, taking pictures and talking to everyone willing to talk!!

Emmanuelle Alt is not only French Vogue's fashion director. She has personally helped firms like Isabel Marant and Balmain create their statement looks. As fashion week approaches i'm anticipating her new "sartorialist" looks.
Neurotica is a London based label specializing in hand printed pieces designed by Victoria McGrane. Originally from Lancashire, England, Victoria grew up in the sunny Northern Beaches of Sydney, Australia where she studied painting at Sydney College of The Arts and Textile Design for Print at East Sydney Tafe. After an extended backpacking trip through South East Asia and Europe ending up in London, Victoria assisted fashion designers Michelle Lowe-Holder and Siv Stoldal and worked freelance before setting up a textile printing studio. Victoria's love of print is evident in all of her designs, which feature intricate geometric repeats and inky hand drawn illustrations. The name of the label is indicative of the mood of the line and the fact that Victoria is a self-confessed neurotic& The collections explore the boundaries between the sweet and the sinister and are designed with the kind of girl in mind who is highly individual and likes her cute to come with a darker edge. One of the definitions of the word neurotic is "an obsession with everyday things". Neurotic is derived from the greek word Neuron- meaning "Over stimulation of the nerves and senses", this combined with the implication of desirability really sums up the labels philosophy. source: designerhunter.com
