Spring is knocking on my door..

Hello everybody! Sorry I didn't post anything new these last days, but I didn't have much time. However, from now on, I'll try to post more new things. Spring has come to Greece and the weather is really warm. It's almost like summer. It's good that spring has come to Athens, however I'd much rather enjoy be at sea, reading "The island" by Victoria Hislop while listening to the gentle breaking waves onto the sandy beach. This outfit has lot of elements inspired by spring! The floral crown that I wear is the finishing touch to make the outfit just perfect for a walk on a spring day!

Hope you like it..

Shopping : Spring additions

The last couple weeks I added a few new things to my wardrobe. Mostly spring items, in blue (my favourite color) and white, and two pair of shoes (one new, one revamped )

The pants are from H&M, I found them on the sales section for 10 euros. They are 60s style, with a lovely pattern and a high waist. They also have similar pants in many different patterns and also solid colors, check here. The polka dot dress is from Pull and Bear's new collection (here) and the hologram heels are from Forever 21 (here).

 How awesome are these shoes!!! I'll probably never wear them outside but I'll just had to have them. I actually have that "problem" with shoes, I buy shoes because they are cute, even though I know I won't wear them. I have a small collection of heels that I never wear and just two pairs of shoes that I wear everyday.

And lastly, these boat shoes which were originally navy blue (you can see them in this post), but although I love that color I found it very difficult to combine them with my clothes. So I painted them brown, with acrylic paint and now I finally get to wear them!

A modern take on rain boots

Rain boots, a convenient and necessary pair of shoes! I was late but I finally realised this year how practical can be a pair of rain boots. The last three years I see them everywhere, in a variety of colors and styles. But I only recently noticed that there are some alternative options, if your not a big fan of the classic rain boots but you really need them during rainy days.

sources: 1. Bershka / 2. Revolve Clothing / 3. Ebay / 4. Loeffler Randall

 The first too, biker style, I would wear them even when it doesn't rain, something I already do with rain boots anyway, but these don't look like rain boots, so you'll avoid the strange looks.
The third pair, I can't even express how much I like it! I think this idea is genius, I'm fond of transparent things and lace up shoes, and these combine the two of them, plus they are super practical!
The last pair is a more classic style of ankle boots but they are actually rain boots made of rubber!

A kiss by the sea

I loved that skirt the first time I saw it in this post. I was obsessed with it for a few weeks, debating over byuing it or not. The price is a little bit more expensive that I would normally pay for a skirt, especially when bought online, but I decided at the end that it's not much of a normal skirt so it worths the money! It arrived a couple of weeks ago and I didn't regret my pursache at all. Even though I know I'll wear it only on special occassions it's a statement piece that my wardrobe needed..
This time I paired it with a plain white top and a gold plated belt (another great find), but I can't wait to wear it in summer with no tights and a bright colored top!
