My heart my head my mind my soul
My feelings over you
My tears my touch remember all that I am to you

Are you chic enough?*

Joyeux Anniversaires à moi. Χρόνια μου πολλά και ευτυχισμένα.

Yesterday i celebrated my 24th (oh my god, i 'm getting older) birthday. But it happened to be a double celebration for both my birthday and an offer i 've been made for my upcoming postgraduate studies!!!

-Congrats!

-Thank you thank you daaaarlings! :D

So we went with my dear friends for a lux drink to T-Palace, a rather posh bar-restaurant. It 's been quite a long time since i went to such a place and i must confess that although i was sitting on a lip-shaped red couch(!) for about 3 hours i had a good good time and fun. There you go, i 'm posting a photo of its entrance. Obvious maximalism creating an almost kitsch atmosphere. Nice no?

Le outfit of the night created the image below.. Of course instead of the Philip Lim blouse i wore a similar Zara one, holding a Longchamp black clutch and not this Chloé one- which is to die for btw.





..By the end of the night i was feeling more mature. (Strawberry Daiquiris may have helped me to be more decisive but the right timing and positive energy have led to some unexpected but desirable facts..) I had thought about my life during the last year, took some serious decisions, felt like i changed brains and heart and NOW i 'm feeling balanced again. It 's not a matter of true happiness that i 'm experiencing but more of a feeling of holding your head up and feeling strong. Isn't that our first need and what we pursuit everyday?


May you all have a smarvellous weekend :)

à bientôt

But what you don't know is that (...) it's actually cerulean.


is not just blue, it's not turquoise, it's not lapis... *

The best part of FWs are the 'shows' before and after the actual show, with loads of champagne and delis, goofiness, laughs, hugs, model style, funny poses, beautiful portrait pictures taken, applausing and above all a sweet anxiety for the upcoming and a huge relief when lights turn out.
Voilà some of the backstage/front row (waiting for the show to begin) and after-show party moments:
