Mykonos THEA apartments complex has been one of the most stunning places I have ever visited! It overlooks the beautiful bay of Agios Sostis and it is located only 5 minutes walk from the beach. It is built according to the Cycladic architecture, characterised by the traditional white-washed cube houses with smooth-edged corners and blue azure wooden doors and windows. The rooms have the typical interior design with minimal aesthetic consisted of white walls, wooden roof, white cushions and unique hand carved wooden furniture. The complex is sitting in harmony with the nature and it offers the absolute relaxation. It has an outdoors swimming pool and jacuzzi, a picturesque church and many verandas that provide view to the turquoise Aegean sea. I spent most of my time by the pool, looking over the sea and I found it the best way to release my stress and relax. Thank you Mykonos THEA for the unforgettable holidays!

Love,
Anastasia

Sometimes even when in holidays, you have to gift yourself with luxury treats, so while we were in Mykonos, we bought a bottle of Ice Imperial Moet&Chandon champagne and had a spontaneous pool party. The day was very hot and the sparkling fruity champagne was a pleasure to drink. I was wearing a vintage hat, my sister's RayBan sunglasses and a Triumph bikini. We finished the party with delicious seafood risotto and great smiles on our faces.

Love,
Anastasia

Shopping stories


Yesterday I did some shopping with my sister. She wanted to buy a black evening dress in an average price. Easy peasy you might think, but it took us the whole evening and two frozen yoghurts to find it. At the end she decided not to buy it as it was too short for her...
Tired and dissapointed we headed back to our flat. While she was preparing some pizza to eat (aka she was defrosting a pizza and she was ready to place it in the oven), I decided to have a quick online search and see if I could something for her.
At first I thought that it would be impossible to find that dress online since we weren't able to find it during the evening. I was wrong! I found the best evening dresses and moreover I realised that there is actually a chance to sell your own clothes online.
Shopping online has always been my favourite as it is very quick, you can have the maximum search within minutes and you can do it while sitting on your sofa. Plus you can do price comparisons and have a look at the customer reviews. I tend to do online shopping a lot, especially after my blog turned into the fashionsphere. However, it was the first time that I did online shopping for someone else, there's always a first time for everything. She got this one and will also consider buying the same belt as in picture to pair them together. Also we agreed that if we keep shopping at the same rate then we will need another flat, same size as the one we live, to store our clothes. Hence, we decided to sell some of our old/never worn clothes online. Two birds with one stone, that's success for me! We ate the pizza and dreamed of our next shopping adventure!

Love,
Anastasia

Distressed denim shorts and polka dots

Romwe bag
outfit details:

bag-c/o Romwe
mint earrings-c/o The Purple Balloon

boutonniere-Primark

mint heart shape earrings
distressed  denim shorts
polka dots and nautical
denim  boutonniere
If there is one thing I simply cannot get enough of, that's denim and polka dots, so what's best than a combination of both! I have these shorts since last year but as I am living in a cold country I never actually got the chance to wear them until today that my summer holidays officially began (yaaaaaaah)! The top is borrowed by my sister's closet and as I havent carried many clothes with me back home, I feel blessed that me and my sister wear same size clothes. The bag was gifted to me by Romwe (by the way they have leggings crazy sales at the moment) and I am very satisfied with its quality and design. However, what makes my today's outfit unique are the accessories I added for an extra something. There's nothing nicer than finding the perfect pair of earrings to finish of an outfit and you can imagine my happiness when The Purple Balloon contacted me to send me some of their unique handmade jewelry like the pair of mint heart shape earrings that I am wearing today. Among others I also loved the earrings with gold foil, and the minimalistic fuschia necklace. The best part is that you can get a 5% sales by liking their facebook page, and if you want more you can also find them here.
What's your favourite?

Love,
Anastasia

I'd like to be, under the sea, in an Octopuses garden with you

Sundays are for fun and relaxation, and they should be spent with friends in the most beautiful places. With that in mind, and the simple fact that we have cars, we visited a gorgeous beach called Agios Ioannis today. It takes around an hour of driving from the city of Volos and it is a must spot to visit if you are in the area!
I love any place that is surrounded by the sea, but trust me this place is not like any usual beach. The bad ass crystal clear blue waters can give you a thousand reasons to give me your thumbs up! The sea was so damn good and the trees made the whole picture priceless. We normally take beach umbrellas with us, since we do not sunbathe but this time we didn't need them; there was a natural shade from the huge nearby rocky hill, whoop whoops! Adorning sea shells collecting, I picked up a bunch of sea shells of different shapes and sizes and many white little stones that I plan to paint and carry with me in my house in England. After enjoying swimming in the sea and deep diving, we sat by the beach and made new friends with Dena, a cute little puppry that was sniffing our stuff while we were in the sea, or maybe she was looking after them and we misinterpreted her? Who knows! The important thing is that she was very sweet and she was willing to sniff us all :) At the end of the day we piled our car with wet towels and headed back to the city, while listening to this song. Another great memory has been etched in my mind forever!

Love,
Anastasia

P.S: I was wearing club neuf bikini and Firmoo sunnies.

When I was 14 years old I bought a pair of yellow plumber-like overalls that I absolutely loved. I wore it constantly for a good couple of months until my parents decided to paint my room and I offered to help them. That day I decided to wear (what else) my overalls as they were my most comfortable clothing. By the end of the day my overalls turned from yellow into a new yellow version with white-pink polka dots. It sounds way better than it looked like, trust me! Next thing I remember, my mum gave them away and since then I have left with the memory...until one day that I was too lazy to work and did some online research. When I saw these overalls, I decided that it must a grand signal to buy them and finally have another pair of overalls in my closet. They arrived on my doorstep after a week or so and since then I've been wearing them constantly.
Today I wore them with my Tom's shoes that was a gift from my American sister from another mister, Sara four years ago. Funny thing is that they weren't famous in Greece that time, to be quite honest I am not even sure if they were available at shops in Athens, so I thought that they were slippers! I was too ashamed to wear them in the public and the first time I wore them and went for a coffee everyone was staring at me, thinking that I was wearing my slippers. It took me a year to realise how famous they were worldwide and to know about the one for one ethics behind the bussiness. Thankfully there has been a fashion update in my city as well so everytime I go back home people wear Tom's, and I finally feel more comfortable to wear them around. All's well that ends well :)

Love,
Anastasia

P.S: Give some credits to my friend. He made this photoshooting a bliss!
