STYLE FILE: SUMMER BLACK♡

It's been so long my darlings! I'm so sorry I wasn't active but I had finals and tons of studying to do. From now on though, I'm all free and ready to bounce back and rise higher! I'm so excited for summer, yet I'm not quite ready. Meaning I am still clinging to my jeans and my black clothing. But, if you've followed any fashion blogger ever, you probably know that black is pretty acceptable for summer. 

I have the blessing to be born in a very warm country and we always tend to refrain from black during summer. It's all about the bright colors and the florals, owning up to the oh-so-cliche  bohemian mandatory vibes. It's no secret that monochromes are able to make an equally big statement while keeping you chic and stylish. 

If you are not a fan of neons, there are so many options, but for most people black is a no-no. Personally, I believe that black is perfect for summer nights (and summer days if you are brave enough to face the heat). It's sexy and flattering and obviously chic and I think that it looks incredible with a tan. 

So, does that mean that the plain old boring black(just kidding black is the best to me) is the key to making a statement this summer? Would you try it?

VIDEO: MAKEUP HAUL♡

Hello loves! How was your weekend? I still have 3 more weeks until the end of my finals and I'm slowly dying XD This is why I haven't been so active lately. Plus, I really wanted to film and edit this video, which is a lot of work. But it was totally worth it! 

You guys know that I am absolutely obsessed with watching Youtube videos and, since I am so bubbly myself, I also love making my own.

This video is a collective makeup haul. Basically a bunch of makeup items that I bought lately. Some were birthday presents (♥) and also a big portion of this stuff was sent to me.

 So, I want to say a HUGE thank you to the girls from Aromca for sending me the most adorable stuff! I couldn't be more thankful since I am actually using all of them on a daily basis! You can find out everything about Erre Due makeup on their website erredue.gr  They really have amazing products!

What do you guys think about the products I hauled? Have you tried any? Let me know in the comments below!

MUTE BY ATHINA KORDA♡

Hello my darlings! How are you all? My mood decides to play mix n' match but I'm just focused on enjoying the warm weather and relaxing before my finals. I really can't believe that summer is right around the corner. I'm just not ready yet!

This is why I thought that this new Spring/Summer collection was a perfect fit for my mood. No girly, colorful prints, no lace, no bohemian vibes. Instead, the designer Athina Korda, opts for clean lines, and experiments with an interesting colorblock combo for summer. I really like how effortlessly cool her designs look and yet also put together. It's like the perfect garment to just throw on and leave the house when you want to look polished but you just can't be bothered. 

I've seen her previous collections on the runway and I always liked her minimalistic approach. This collection is supposed to mimic the swell of the sea, the movement of the waves as they come and go. If you are greek, like me and her, you know ;) 

As for my favorites...well I will have to go for the black and blue v-neck open back dress and the one that resembles a wrap dress. They both seem like something I would totally wear-and not just during the summer!

What about you guys? What are your favorite pieces from the collection? Let me know in the comments below♥

LOAFERS?!♡

How are you my loves? Tired of everything and everyone like me? In need for some major fashion inspo to get through the week? I got you covered! Life sucks but that doesn't mean our outfits have to suck too XD 

I'm sure you've all noticed that loafers are becoming a thing, well actually they are already a pretty big deal in fashion. Flats in general I would say. So many stylish girls are opting for sneakers instead of heels nowadays. I absolutely love this trend a)because I live in sneakers and biker boots and b)because I love the idea of being stylish and comfortable throughout the day. But, I'm not a big fan of loafers. I used to wear ballerina flats when I was younger, but now I feel that they don't compliment my style or my body shape. 

Loafers are the kind of shoes that I would categorize as man-repellers and, even though they're trendy, I just can't seem to get on board. But, I would be a terrible fashion advisor if I only posted about the stuff I wear.Thus, I decided to curate a couple of loafers that I would kinda sorta might-a wear. Usually the fashion crowd-the Olsens ahem-are pairing them with pants, but I've been seeing them with dresses lately and I do like a good mix n' match.

Here are my loafers of choice and, of course, some style inspo!

Would you guys wear them? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below♥
