My Week Through Instagram

From left to right, starting from the top row:

1. Brand new printed Bershka pants! So light and comfortable! It was love at first sight... / 2. Also brand new, these Polo Wayferer-style black sunglasses. The only Wayferer styled sunglasses that work on me... / 3. I don't eat fruit (yes, I know - I should...) but I'll make an exception or two for my favorite summer fruits: cherries and watermelon! / 4. A sunset photo of the Lighthouse, at the Old Port at Chania. / 5. One more coffee photo! Coffee makes my world go round! / 6. Torn jeans from Zara. I don't wear them at work, but they've become a must item for my weekends. / 7. This is my Kenneth Jay Lane horn necklace. I got it in four different colours all at once and I have my mum to thank for, because she discovered a super discount on these necklaces at Fenwick, during one of our trips to London. Adore it. Find something similar here or here. 8. This week I printed a few of my instagram photos and realized I need square photo paper... it will be a bit difficult to find...grrr... 9. Pretending to study - sort of reading the Oxford Handbook of the History of Eugenics...

My Week Through Instagram

From left to right, starting from the top:

This week I travelled to Athens for a friend's wedding. We had a wonderful time and I took a couple of days off from work to relax, see my friends and ...go shopping! Here are a few pics from the trip:

1. Sometimes I take an orange juice break instead of a coffee break. But only when I'm at Starbucks! I love their fresh orange juice!

2. The H&M flagship store in Athens, is gorgeous!

3. My recent purchases from H&M: a cuff bracelet, a pair of coral-pink ballet flats, two sets of stud earrings, a bronzer and a gold hair clip.

4. An outfit that caught my attention at Uterque.

5. Fantastic homeware at Zara Home.

6. And this is the Zara Home tablecloth that stole my heart... 

7. Having a pedicure and going for a cherry red colour by Essie!

8 & 9. Trying to skip calories by watching my friend Ilias eat yogurt ice cream and not having one myself. This is his weird mix.

At H&M Athens

Not brand new, but definitely relatively new, the H & M flagship store in Athens, Greece is impressive not only because of the hip and trendy clothes, but also because of its gorgeous interior design which is evident in all of its 2600 square meters space! Don't you agree?

My Week Through Instagram

From the top, left to right:

1. Bang Your Head Here - From Bloomberg Businessweek's cover. How relevant (see no2).

2. Had the worst day at work on Thursday...At least Depon Maximum does what it promises: instant relief from pain(s).

3. Packed my latest Coco Chanel quote print "Be Irreplaceable" for a customer in Norway. Big smile!

4. Saturday's casual outfit: floral pants from Zara, jean shirt from Bershka and white t-shirt from H&M.

5. I'll do it as the future queen does (note to reader: Kate, not Camilla): I've bought these tres-chic beige L.K.Bennett pumps which look fantastic but they keep killing each time I wear them...

6. This week the only cd that made it into my cd-player was Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black", with the song  "Some Unholy War" on repeat.

7. No idea how this flower is called, but there are plenty of them at our garden.

8. After a big dinner on Monday, a few of these sweets appeared on our table. This one somehow made it on my plate!

9. For my Saturday afternoon coffee I need at least three new magazines! This week's choices were the Greek editions of Hello!, Ok! and Harper's Bazaar.

My Week Through Instagram

From top left:

1. From my Saturday visit to Zara.: One pair of beige pants for work. When it comes to workwear, beige is the black of summer.

2. More Saturday shopping, a white lace top from Pull and Bear. 

3. Zara flats (yes beige as well, worn mostly at the office)

4. A few of my favorite bracelets - the cuff is from C.C Skye

5. Preparing to pack my "Cup of Tea Big Enough, a Book Long Enough" print for Australia

6. Taking a small break for a cup of coffee with my sister

7. My survival kit: Body Shop liquid eyeliners and Estee Lauder concealer

8. MAC eyeshadows - mainly in brown hues

9. My morning coffee - the famous Greek Frappe! Want to know how to make a frappe? Check this link!

My Week Through Instagram

Clockwise from top left: 

1. The stack of magazines next to my bed is getting "taller"...US Vogue is -of course - on the top. 

2. A clear nail polish is a must for the days (or weeks) between manicures. I got this one from H&M cause I loved the bottle design. Great packaging always has a "purchase-now" effect on me...

3. I found this quote on Bloomberg Businessweek magazine. Thought it was funny.

4. The latest addition to my etsy shop, a 4 x 6 inches art print featuring a Robert Frost quote on eccentricity.
