THINGS TO LOVE Vol3

A random lovely post seems right to start the week. Let's talk about all these things that may put a smile on the faces when things are complicated.

New amazing design brand THE BLUE WHITE, created by Alexandra Stais.
An ode to Greek tradition in its best modern approach, keeping the blue and white spirit alive in a clever and inspiring way. Alexandra creates designs and items that make your home feels more authentic and happy. Find out more here.

Another fav little thing that created huge smile: JUICY COUTURE bag exclusively made for Joanaddicted. What can i say, this brand combines two totally different personalities: rock & romantic, and that's the uniqueness about it!

Have to mention the Alexander McQueen Savage Beauty expo during my London trip. The most impressive, emotional, bold exhibition i have ever seen. Take a look for yourself.

Smile creator number 4. The Harrods windows' Flowers. Loved them.

Speaking of London, Accessorize Press Trip was a pure inspiration for the season to come. Epic prints and jeweleries are the reason to "can't wait for the winter". The following two photos is just a sneak peak of the beauty that is about to be revealed in a few months.

Next. Friends that make Home Made Dinners - priceless.

Marie Claire blog Awards moment with Gala Gonzales.
Wearing two pieces silk printed outfit, designed by me.

And last but not least, new obsession. Toshiba's Canvio Connect II, a portable HDD offering up to 2 TB of storage, 10 GB of free cloud storage and remote access across multiple device. What not to love about toshiba? It's a pure jewel afterall.

ROSES ARE RED loungewear

Well, it's easier talking about others' work, right?
But it's time to write about my new loungewear brand ROSES ARE RED. It was launched one month ago, although i couldn't find a single moment to sit down, take a breath and put the words together. This is the most hard-working and creative time of my life and it feels so right sharing it with you.
I always wanted to create my own label, since i had the Fashion Design Diploma in my hands, but when the right time comes, you just feel it. And when you get to combine the biggest passions of your life, it's even dreamier. Referring to design + poetry. The collection is accompanied by a series of poems that compliment the brand's poetic concept, inspired by the love couplet "Roses are red, Violets are blue". Just as this couplet is the beginning of an incomplete poem, challenging you to continue the rhyme, ROSES ARE RED garments are made for you to continue their story, wearing them and living in their silk touch.
Well, i believe that most of you have already seen the collection online here. So, this is a post dedicated mostly to all these people who stood by me in order to create a beautiful, poetic campaign, corresponding to ROSES ARE RED's personality.
A huge THANKS to photographer Maria Maraki for an excellent cooperation and result, Elena Hatzinikolidou for her amazing hands creating the romantic make up, Alexandra Stais for the Graphic Design and the whole input in the creative direction, Akis Akila for the hair styling. My two amazing models Fleur Van Sande and Ilias Konstantinou for making everything look beautiful and my two best friends for their precious help Vassia Baka and Pavlina Papailiopoulou. 
Posting the campaign here, although you can take a look on eshop as well.

WHAT SEEMS BLACK, IT'S RED

Suggesting the perfect going out outfit for early spring nights, by clotho theory.
When red seems bold, then black is a dark tone of light.
The Little red dress becomes the new Little black dress.
I've been wearing this coat lately and i can definitely say that's the ultimate solution for current weather.  Find the red dress here and the coat here. And as for the shoes, upscaling styling with snickers might be a safe option, unless you are a top model with endless legs - then heels work just fine :)

SEA ESSENTIALS

Hardly breathing till holidays so i mindtravel through sunglasses and sea bags.
Equip your highness with the new limited 'Ippolito by the sea' bag collection (i got the Seagal Beach Backpack in Baby Pink & Tabac) and eyecandies such me new spitfire babies.

CINDERELLA

Summer nights need elegance, romance and comfort. Feet Styling is a magic process, giving major pieces of information about someone's personality and mood. And when summer opens its gates and the mood is getting high and loud or flirtatious and smooth, shoes remind you that you can become a Cinderella and walk on the moon. This is the feeling when someone treats you like you live in a fairytale. And when this someone's name is MIGATO, the Greek shoe company, you just want it all.
