Art-hens!

Saturday morning and i can't say no to a walk in the center of Athens. I used to hate the 'tourists-parade' in the centre, with every kind of asian photographer shooting every little rock of the monuments and Monastiraki's unique detailed personality items and buildings, but yesterday i felt one of them! i couldn't resist to the beautiful sun and funny pulse of this day...
So i was found in Gazi, where i usually go at night and i never really pay attention to the unbelieavably beautiful work of arts in every corner.. Guys i went craaaazy with the graffitis...take a look...

 
  
  
  
  
  



Even the hand-made Parking sign is hot...

 
  
  
  
  
  

the contradictory Pireos Avenue...


  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

With all these absolutely different images, you get more curious to search every corner of the city.. And imagine that some people make huge effort in order to erase many of these masterpieces... How would it feel to create such an artwork and stay anonymous?
Back to my sunny morning, Athens looked really industrial and modern at that point.. But i prefer to give my attention to the little old balkan-likish poor home roofs..



  
  
  
  
  
And what about the people? I couldn't stand in one place for one moment cause of the crowd...should we all open cafeterias in the centre of Athens and still there will be demand...


  
...and you can see everything....
tattoo-ing live...


 even a laundry-live like in middle of Monastiraki.. but in reality it's the 'vitrine' of a store!!!!


on how i adooooore these traditional grand-pas and their all-kind of hats on the streets....



you can even buy a chandelier from the street...
 
 where else you can take a ride with a little red train but with wheels in really small alleys?



My contradictory walk


  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
and a slight Acropolis view...
  

Homeless people never miss..
 
 and our favorite Technopolis...


  
Working at night? Don't complain..


Millions of things make you notice them in a different - so different- way..  and that's the whole beauty.



Purple pulse...

Sometimes, i am seriously thinking that my heart and my blood could easily be purple! (aouts!)

My favourite one!


My favourite dress! yes believe it or not , it was purchased from Sfera store at the Mall Marousi.. The truth is that you don't expect to find there anything but old ladies style clothes...but if you give ten more minutes to yourself in this store, you finally get out of the door with 3 bags full of beautiful findings, having spent 100 euros max..
Matched with the supersize bag Black Lilly (Nine Below Store at Kolonaki), Ted Baker leather gorgeous jacket (at Golden Hall), Rock style studded bootes Zara New Collection, Eyeglasses Marc Jacobs (Summer 2009 collection).
