Last year's. One of my now traditional lets-pop-into-the-airport-Accessorize-shop-and-try-not-to-miss-our-flight buys.

Let the holidays begin.

These are the Kiehl's goodies that were sent to me as a thank-you for the Creating with Kiehl's for a Cause project.

Loved the packaging, and summer is a great time to give them a hard test on my sea-and-sun tortured self.

This is also a great chance to mention Kiehl's Gives, a new charity initiative that was launched by Kiehl's last month, giving out $160.000 to charities.

The concept is that you have the power to vote for a specific greater cause - and related charity - that means the most about you.

Check out the site for much more info plus the short videos where Julianne Moore, Pharrell Williams and the Scissor Sisters state which cause is closer to their hearts and why.

I am pleased to say that I have all the press material for Wrangler's Autumn/Winter collection in my hands to be published when the timing is more right. I'm sure all of you boys, and tomboys, and girls who just like a good pair of jeans, will love it.

Spots and stripes

Firetrap multi-stripe oversized cotton knit
€15.74 (original price €65.60)

French Connection spot cap-sleeve t-shirt
9.18 (original price €39.36)

Both were bought from ASOS late last summer, during the sales.

Oh, how I love to hit a sale when it's really low and then wear my cute new stuff next year with pride. Yes sir, I am a patient person who doesn't care for instant gratification when one sees a good bargain. Colour won't go off.

Shopping ahead of the season rules.

Grey peeping

Remember that shopping trip to Miss Sixty?

Well, here are my new grey platform peep-toes, courtesy of Miss Sixty for our Twingo Miss Sixty collaboration. Extremely comfy despite their height, plus I recently spotted them in tomato red too, on the 5th floor of Hondos Center Kolonaki. Keep that in mind girls, the sales are approaching...

That reminds me, have you entered the contest yet? There are some seriously cute Miss Sixty goodies to be won, not to mention a trip for two to a spa hotel. Hurry up though, cause you only have one week left!

H&M Winter collections

fashionarchitect.net_hm_winter_2011_08fashionarchitect.net_hm_winter_2011_013I decided to treat this cloudy July day (come on now, we're in Greece dammit) as an great opportunity to post about the H&M winter collection preview that took place several weeks ago.

Great stuff, really loving the 70's vibe.

If you too have fallen in love with a certain shoe or bag, worry not, you probably won't have to wait till the first autumn showers. Most of the stuff above will roll around H&M stores during the summer months.
