Nominated For The Liebster Award

Monday 16 February 2015

I am so thrilled and excited and at the same time surprised by what I came across when I woke up this morning. Going through my mail and facebook and twitter just to check new posts, I found out I got nominated for The Liebster Awards by www.aspoonfulofdahlias.weebly.com. I can't find the words to say how happy and grateful I am as this is a big opportunity for people to get to know my small blog better. So basically I am going to answer to the questions I was given and then nominate 11 blogs and give them my 11 questions to answer.




                                                           Answering my questions
  1)If you have a runway, which music will play?
Since it has been a dream of me to have my very own fashion runway, I have thought what my music and the tracks playing would be like. I think at this moment I would have Blank Space by Taylor Swift playing, but only the background music without the lyrics. I think it would made the perfect music for my runway.
2)What will you wear to Fashion Week? Picture please!
Unfortunately I don't think I would be able to go to fashion week since I don't live there, but at the moment I am living in Greece, but I promise next time that I will be possibly in London's Fashion Week I will make sure to upload my outfit.
3) Fashion for business or Fashion for art?
I personally don't think it's one way or another. You don't really get to choose one and if you do it will be really hard. I prefer to have a more balanced way of thinking about fashion. Definitely, you are not going to prosper efficiently if you only see fashion in the business way. Fashion is so complex and hard to define, and I believe that you should always care about how you are going to make fashion into a business, but at the same time never forget that fashion is a way of art and expression and it's really important to always treat fashion like an art if you want to achieve.
4)Tell us what do you think about avant garde
I think that is the perfect question after Fashion for art was stated above. Avant garde is such a beautiful and at the same time exaggerating way of expressing fashion. I love the fact that fashion can be divided into so many categories. Personally, I would love to have an avant garde photo shoot and have these excessive dresses the huge hats and all the wonderful baroque background at my photo. I don't know why I perceive the term avant garde like that but I have always thought that what defines it is exaggeration not in a cliche', out of the fashion way, but triggering to the imagination, revolutionary and innovative and that's what is important in fashion to me.
5)Choose one of these and tell me the reason; Edgy, Classy, Sporty, Hipster, Feminine
I definitely choose classy. That is what it would best work for me especially if I had to choose only one for my whole life. Classy is eternal, never expires never bores, it's always in fashion in a conservative but yet interesting and exciting way. Classy is such a nice word to tell to a young woman or to an older woman for her style. Classy is Chanel, Dior, Louis Vuitton. It is fundamental, and no matter how many other styles are invented from time to time this one will be able to stay forever.
6) If your blog were a shoes, what it would be?
I would, with no shadow of doubt, opt for the So Kate Blue Suede stiletto heel. Nothing else to say about these fantastic shoes. They are classic but in a new and innovative way due to their suede texture and colour. That's the way I am aiming my blog to be.
7) Link us your post that you like the most
Since my blog is a really new one I think from the posts that I have made so far, I would choose the one including my London Experience. London for me is the world I would give everything to live in. I love it so much and want to spend my whole life there, Nobody cannot not fall in love with London. It's simply astonishing and beautiful.
8)Funny thing that ever happened during blogging
That is a great way to embarrass myself publicly in front of all the readers. Basically when I was writing my first post I was cooking at the same time, and I got so distracted writing that I totally forgot and ignored the bad smell on my kitchen which was coming from the food that I burned. It wasn't so funny when it happened but when it did and fortunately my house was safe I couldn't stop laughing at my silliness.
9)What is the best part of being in this awesome community (bloggers)?
Like the question says, the bloggers community is awesome. The power of the Internet and how news are spread is amazing. Part of the Internet power is the creation of an inconceivably huge blogging community which includes millions of people which is such a great number. The best part of belonging to such a wonderful community is that you get the feeling of actually belonging somewhere. It's so thrilling to know that people out there read your blog and like it. It's the best feeling that I could ever get in my entire life. People that acknowledge your effort and your hard-work and like your blog.
10)Is blogging is the part of your personal life or part of your professional life?
I think blogging is part of both my personal and my professional life. I started this blog thinking that I could share personal views and experience with the rest of the world. Now that I come to thinking more and more about it every day I think I would love to make it a profession along with my You Tube channel so that it could be a part of my professional life. At least that's the way I see it.

     2. New 
     3. Pretty

My Top 5 MAC lipsticks



After been away for a while, I decided to do a "Top 5 Mac Lipsticks" based on my personal tastes. All of these five shades are different and look amazing on the lips. However, the texture is matte which means that some may not really like it as it can sometimes dry your skin, but on lips with no dryness issue it will look fantastic. Sorry for the picture quality and I hope you enjoy my picks.

"Flat Out Fabulous"












"Relentlessly Red"













"Heroine"











"Nouvelle Vogue"











"Ruby Woo"

Let's talk about Soap&Glory

Wednesday 4 February 2015


I came up with the idea of a Soap&Glory product review after a nice and relaxing bath after a hard day. Soap&Glory is one of the reasons I wanna take a shower or run a long bath, scrub and moisturise my body. Soap&Glory is a company that mainly makes shower and bath products, everything we need to feel nice and clean in a daily basis.It also makes cosmetics whose quality is amazing especially when compared to the reasonable prices. After going through the difficulty of choosing my four favourite Soap&Glory products, I eventually and happily present it to you. 
Moving clockwise , there is the most amazing Bubble Bath which has offered me hours and hours of relaxation in the bath. It smells amazing and it's easy to use since you just put as much as you want in your bathtub's water and ta-dah!You've got your bubbles waiting for you!It's the Calm One Calm All Bubble Bath made from lemon balm, mallow and moisture-magnetising skin conditioners. Apart from the unbelievably sweet smell it does help you dive into a relaxation mood, more like nirvana, leaving your skin soft and nice-smelling. 
Next to it lies the Hand Food which is basically a hydrating hand cream and is literally food for your hands. I normally hate hand creams because they always leave you with an oily, greasy feeling and the only thing you want to do is wash your hands, so they are of no use. However this hand cream is a really fast-absorbing one and non-greasy that at the same time makes your hands soft and hydrated. It's a winter essential for me since I always need to moisturise my hands from getting dry from the bad weather,
The next two products are small ones, because I got them in travel size as they appeared to be more compact and handy to me. The one on the left is the Scrub 'em and Leave 'em body buff. It's a scrub and it's used to keep all the dead cells away from the body and make your skin breathe. You just put the amount of scrub you need to use on your hands and then with circle moves rub it on your body and finally rinse it off until it all goes away. After you've scrubbed your skin and in order to avoid any kind of dryness, body butter is highly recommended. And there's nothing best than the Daily Smooth Body Butter with Roseship Seed Oil and Cocoa Butter. Like all of the other products it does have a smell that gives you the feeling of being in a spa. It's an amazingly-effective dry skin Formula and gives all the hydration that your body needs.
These are not the only products of Soap&Glory but just a small sample of what this brand offers to you and your skin. There is an incredible wide range of sweet and fruity smelling products which I hope you are excited about. You can find those products on their website www.soapandglory.com but unfortunately there isn't shipping to every country.
