{Summer Week} The Nails...

Leave a Comment

It's no secret I love nail polish, and even if you spent three seconds on my Instagram, you would know that I have a serious sweet tooth as well... Luckily for me the two go together like nobody's business, and I certainly can't complain about having edible props for a change!

Above are my favourite shades/wraps for summer in the digit-department � And believe me when I tell you it was nearly impossible to narrow it down to just six. From sizzling shades of hot pink and neon green, to softer pallets brimming with mints and lilacs, I'm always down for a fun summer mani... Oh the possibilities.

So tell me friends, what are your favourite shades for summer? Spill! xx

When it comes to summer attire, it doesn't get much better than pops of colour and playful motifs in the form of accessories. This bag pretty much epitomizes summer styling in my mind, what with its vibrant hue and cheeky embellishment... Just throw in some bright baubles and a great printed jean, and you've got yourself all the makings for a sweet, late summer outfit.

{Summer Week} The Sun Dress...

Who's ready for another theme week? Since I'm always talking about how I can't wait for fall, I figured I should stop and enjoy summer while I still can, so voila! A new theme week was born. First up, the sun dress. All you need are some stripes, pastels and cute cutout detailing, and you've got yourselves the all the makings of a summertime staple... Too bad this is the first time I've worn this dress since buying it a month ago, but I digress � As is the case with theme weeks, better late than never, right?

I've got a lot of fun, summer-fueled posts lined up for you guys this week, so be sure to check back every day to see what's in store... Happy Monday! xx

{Feature} The Tell-Tale Heart...

Leave a Comment
There's nothing better than a good old photo adventure, even if it includes mud and more mosquito bites (in highly undesirable places) than I care to count. Luckily I have nice friends who are willing to put up with such things for the sake of getting the shot, including trudging through waist-high grass and coaxing me onto old, abandoned tractors (just for kicks) even when I'm being a total priss about it... What can I say, some people just belong in cities.

Happy weekending, friendlies, and thanks for reading! xx

{Shopping Guide} Beachwear...

 photo summerstyleguide3_zps915a7a77.jpg

Nothing says summer quite like a trip to the beach, or better yet, some warm, tropical vacation where a cute bathing suit (and sunscreen!) is all you need. Nautical stripes, bold colours and strappy sandals make for the perfect summer uniform, so if you're in the market for some new duds this season, here's a roundup of a few items in particular that I'm coveting... Let the shopping begin!


What pieces are you guys craving for summer? I wanna know! xx

Wardrobe Wednesday...

Leave a Comment

I love accessories more than words, so when the days get longer and temperatures spike, there's nothing greater than piling on the bracelets and slipping into a pair of fun sandals. These accessories (shoes are kind of an accessory, right?) have been my go-tos this week, elevating them to Wardrobe Wednesday status. Of particular note is the pink spike bracelet and studded collar � both from The Bay � and the jelly sandals I bought last year at Winners (they're like walking on air!). The take away? It doesn't take much to make me happy; just a simple skull or spike will do.

Happy Wardrobe Wednesday, my pretties! xx

{Travel Diary} On the Rocks...

These photos were taken on my last night in Messolonghi, our hometown in Greece... My cousin and I decided to go to a nearby beach to catch the sunset and snap some quick pics, which turned out to be one of the windiest nights ever... And if you don't believe me, just look at my hair! 'Nuff said.

Saying goodbye to family is always so hard (we're a bunch of cry babies!), because we never really know when we'll see each other again... After all, it was seven years since my last visit! And since I'm not sure if I'll get to see my grandma again, it was especially hard to say goodbye to her, but hey, that's life.

All in all, it was an amazing trip, and I feel so fortunate to have made it back, even if for only such a short time... I want to thank my amazing cousins for taking my outfit pics (believe me, it wasn't easy with the extreme heat!), as well as those who followed along my trip via Twitter and Instagram � Your sweet comments meant so much! And as always, thanks to all of those who read my silly little blog daily, your support means more than you could ever know. xx

{Travel Diary} Short Shorts...

Leave a Comment

I wore these shorts ad nauseum during my trip, because not only were they super cute and comfy, but the polka dots made them virtually irresistible to me... Be it day or night, these shorts were on and in a big way. They even made it to the top of a mountain, where they enjoyed a cool glass of beer under the stars... Talk about some traveling pants.

Happy Thursday! xx
