It's Monday (yet again), so there is a new outfit around here :D This time however we leave the flowers and all the cute stuff behind and we go a little bit more underground. Babe found this super awesome and artsy location last week and I still had one more outfit prepared so we went to see it. A whole street full of graffitis and art galleries, but also with cafes, small restaurants or bars here and there - super super cool! I totally loved it and I definitely wanna go back there sometime.

Regarding the outfit, well I recently saw this baby blue BLAZER on the website and I instantly thought that it would be perfect for spring. I already had a coat in a similar color, but I thought that a new blazer is always a good idea and I particularly loved the color of this one. Moreover I love it's simplicity and the fact that it's very easy to style, either in an elegant way with heels, or in a more cool, casual way with sneakers (see my last photo). Another big plus is its length and the fact that is longer than the "normal" blazers, which I definitely like. And I shouldn't forget to tell you that the fabric is very soft and it is not so thick, therefore it's definitely a good investment for summer as well. :) You can check it out HERE.

As you can see, I composed this look starting with some basics - a pair of black pants and a striped blouse, to which I added the blazer. I couldn't leave it too simple even though that would have been fine too, but I decided to embrace the trend of wearing corsets over clothes and therefore I tied everything with a black corset. I think this definitely makes the look more interesting and it adds that little extra something to it, right? :D

Happy Monday everyone!
Hugs, A.

grafitti & green

I was thinking the other day what made me create this blog and, besides my passions for photography and fashion, there was also my friend and colleague from the Master program who talked me into this. I'm really glad she did and I want to thank her again!

Why? Because I realized that writing here relaxes me, it is something that I enjoy doing. Everyday, after a loooooong, busy day I can't wait to open this page and post something new or read your comments/other blogs. And yes, I'm not the type who writes a novel everytime I start typing, in fact I never was the type and never will be. I'm an engineer, my life usually spins around formulas, so it's pretty hard to become a totally different self when I write something here. But, for me, even a few lines are enough to make me feel good. Doesn't matter if those lines are about clothes or sunshine or rain or a place which I visited, it matters that I am glad afterwards for sharing my thoughts with you.
I probably told you before that I had another blog some years ago (not a fashion blog), and I got bored pretty fast. I would have never imagined that this one would get to a point where I can even call it addictive. But it's a good addiction, it's something that disconnects me from the daily routine for a few moments and that's why I keep coming back. :)

About the outfit, I always liked this type of green and together with black and white it makes a lovely combination. As you already know, I'm really glad for finding that coat and it definitely is the most perfect thing for spring. What completes my outfit are those gorgeous green earrings which I won (yay!) on one of my favorite blogs, Fashion Painted Dreams. You check them out on Pretty Purple Boutique, where you can also find beautiful necklaces, shoe clips and jewelry sets, besides these pretty earrings.
