Hey hey, what's up what's new? :) As you probably know by now, I usually post on Mondays but since yesterday was quite a weird day for me and I wasn't feeling that well I decided to postpone it for today. Changes are also welcome from time to time, right? :)

I can't believe that Christmas is almost here and I actually can't wait to decorate the tree and start feeling the holiday spirit, because this year, unlike the past years I'm not exactly feeling it. However I'm sure that this will change once I get home :) And if there are two colors to think about when I say "Christmas" these would definitely be RED and dark GREEN (emerald green, forest green, etc). I just feel that these colors work best during this time of the year, especially the type of green that I chose to wear in today's post. I've been having this cardigan for some years now but somehow I always find myself wearing it only during this time of the year. I totally love this type of green and since I didn't have this color on the blog since forever I decided it would be a great combo to the lovely black dress that I'm wearing.

The little black dress is a classic, always was and always will be, but if you're looking for a dress which can be worn in both casual and elegant outfits than this is definitely the one. It is made of a soft cotton material, which makes it very comfortable, it has an a-line shape and what is truly special about this dress are the ruffled sleeves, which I love. They just make it so adorable :)
Also, it is very easy to style and this time I chose to wear it in a casual combo, with my beloved ankle boots, a pair of fishnet tights and for some extra color, I also added a green velvet backpack which I find to be super cute. :) The dress can be found HERE, at an amazing price and the best part is that you can find it in many other colors, just check it out :)

Let me know what you think of this look & have a great week!
Love, A.

Emerald Green & Dots - Sammydress beauties

Yes, finally a proper #fall outfit! I've been waiting quite a while to post this but somehow it just didn't match the 30 degree temperatures we had until mid-last week. :)) I would have never imagined that it will be so warm here until the middle of September, but it was and we all enjoyed the last warm rays of sun. However, each season has its beauty and I am actually looking forward to get back to ankle boots, over the knees, cozy clothing and blanket scarfs. And not just that, but to snuggle in a fluffy blanket and drink a cup of tea or hot chocolate. Ok, it's not yet the case but we're slowly getting there and I have a very important task for this week, which is to change the summer clothes and shoes with the autumn / winter ones. That will take a while but I'm actually looking forward to it.

Anyway, today's outfit is definitely an autumn favourite for me. As I told you before, PLEATED SKIRTS are definitely a must this fall and when I saw this beauty, in a gorgeous emerald green color I couldn't say no. Moreover, the fabric has a metallic effect which makes it the perfect piece for a night outfit as well. The quality is really good and the price..well, unbeatable. Just check it out HERE. In order to wear it during the daytime, I dressed it down a bit by adding a super cute grey SWEATER with white polka dots. I mean, how adorable is this?! And I must tell you that it is also unbelievably soft and quite thick, which makes it just perfect for winter too. I know it will be among my favourites this season, yay. This sweater has also a very good price (only 17$) and you can find it HERE. Both of the items came in the same package and the shipping time was much shorter than expected. I actually thought it will take about 2-3 weeks to arrive, but they came in about one week which is more than great.

But to tell you more about this website, Sammydress offers several clothing items for women and men, as well as accessories, bags, shoes, hair accessories, beauty products and even home & garden supplies. They also have a good customer service to which you can write immediately in case you have any kind of questions. You can also find them HERE & HERE and you can see outfits posted by their bloggers HERE. I actually received 4 products from this website and I loved them all, therefore I definitely recommend you to check them out. You will see the other two in a future post. :)

What do you think about this look?

Have a productive week!
Hugs, A.

Happy New 2016!

Hello my dears,

My vacation came to an end, so here I am back with a new post. This is the first one for 2016, so what better way to start the year other than showing you the outfit I wore for the New Year's Eve Party we attended? The photos were taken after the NYE, but I wanted to show you my dress because I fell in love with it a while ago and I finally got it as a present for Christmas from my dear parents. :) Since that night was extremely cold, I paired it with my OTK boots but you can also wear stilettos or even sandals with it. I added a pair of very long earrings, which I figured that would match the fringes perfectly. A glass of champagne was necessary to complete the outfit and the occassion, so cheers to this new year! I just wish I had more light in order to get a better quality of the photos, sorry for that.

On another matter, I was home for three weeks and it was great! We had a lovely time with our family and friends and it was so good to disconnect from the daily routine. The only problem is to get back on track now :)) I've been meaning to post from there as well but my laptop was kinda dead for two weeks, after which I caught a wonderful cold and I had to stay in bed for 3 days and then I thought..heey, vacations are vacations so we should enjoy it. I didn't take many photos, but I still have another look to show you, don't worry!

I wish you all a wonderful new year with health, joy, kindness, happy moments, traveling and sparkles! Let's have a great new week and a lovely day, even if here it's raining heavily.

dressy, yet casual

Hello dears,

It's been a while since I posted a dressy outfit because, let's face it, I'm too lazy to wear stilettos during the day. I used to do that in the 10th Grade when I was struggling everyday to get to school wearing booties with 10-11 cm heels, but I'm pretty much over that. This city is quite big, so the long distances make me wear biker boots, sneakers, ballerinas during the day. On the other hand, when we go out, I always wear heels, it's like a rule for me :))

Having said that, I guess you remember this skirt, which I wore HERE and which was on my wishlist for a long time. You know how much I love midi skirts and this one is truly special because of its pretty color and perfect shape, so I thought it deserves to be presented one more time. Lately, I really love the trend of combining elegant & casual items in one outfit, so I tried to style this skirt a bit differently, by choosing a casual sweatshirt with silver details and some grey studded heels. What do you think?
