in my grandmother's wardrobe

look what i found: a black leather bag & a silk red and dark blue scarf from 60s!!

you can call them vintage or retro,i call them my precious!

i was disappointed though when she told me she had more bags and thrown them away..at least i "saved" one of them..

:)

love at 1st sight...

"kelly" bag : the story

Part of the story i already knew: the Kelly bag is so named after the actress Grace Kelly 

Part of the story i didn't know: in 1956, the then Princess of Monaco used one of her two favorite Hermès bags to shield her pregnant stomach from paparazzi. Photographs of her covering her stomach were splashed all over the world!

the "kelly" bag was born....

a wish

happy new years eve !! 

my wish list : health & happiness

:) 

hope you all had great time last night!

this is my favourite

Christian Louboutin : Peace of Shoe

I l-o-v-e every pair of shoes he creates !!!I cant afford them,but if you can..learn this:

"Christian Louboutin has created a limited edition shoe called Peace of Shoe to benefit the Grameen Foundation, which helps the world's poor escape poverty through access to microfinance and technology. The shoes can be found in Louboutin's New York, Miami and Los Angeles stores. Only 33 pairs will be made:10 in pink, 12 in champagne, and 11 in lavender." 

 

in his words, video here

i prefer the one in champagne..in case someone wants to buy me a gift  :p

Merry Christmas to you all !!

I am for about 2 days at my hometown and i keep eating at least 2 pieces of (well that's how we call them here in Greece) melomakarona!That's the bad thing when you are back home;eating too much of mum's food!Ok i 'll stop grumbling now..I ve seen my friends and we have great time here..doing nothing!just drinking coffee and shopping !

One of my friends has her name day today,my sweet strawberry(her nickname)and i m going to her house,but don't expect a festive outfit!As she said,its a "kid's party" :-D  ..so i just want to  wish u all

sth i read: Prada.The "made in" project

"Prada is collaborating with the best artisans from India, Scotland, Peru and Japan to produce a limited edition collection of items that will be available in 2011. In the early decades of the twentieth century, Miuccia Prada's grandfather, the visionary Mario Prada, traveled the world in tireless pursuit of ideas and inspiration.Again, Prada is embarking on a world manufacturing tour that involves making special garments in different exotic locales all over the world.By developing their latest “Made In…” project, Prada has stayed true to Mario’s global instincts."

bows !!

made in Greece..something you don't see often!

this is actually the 1st outfit post!the reason for not posting outfits before is A) i don't have someone to play the photographer for me!(ok i know about "self-timer thing"but it takes time and B) i m always late!so no time to play the model! C) my friends are going to make fun of me..(well it's my blog!i can post anything i want! :p )
as for the outfit...3 bows in one..is that too much??well...i liked it !
