OZON Fashion Live!

The OZON Raw team presents a new type of event, giving young people interested in pursuing careers in fashion and photography a great chance to showcase their talent, participating in all stages of production for three fashion editorials.

FASHION LIVE is an all-day workshop that will take place on Saturday, February 4th, at Hub Events. The participants will be working in teams according to their field of interest (production, hair & make-up, styling, art direction, photography) and will be able to select clothes from brands such as Wrangler, Lee, Vans and Adidas Originals.

Registering for the workshops is now closed, but all the editorials produced by the participants will be presented at the fashion live party that will take place at 21:00.

See you there!

Her Humble Workshop

Kudos to that little sneaky friend of mine Angela, who after joining me for a visit at last December's The Meet Market, returned the very next day to buy this for me and surprise me for Christmas.

The girl who created this necklace is Naya Ferentinou...

...and mhw stands for my humble workshop. No need to be so humble Naya, your work is amazing!

She does have an etsy shop, but it seems to be kinda inactive, so I'd suggest you hop downtown next time there's a handmade jewellery bazaar and see for yourselves.

Warm in fuchsia, dry in blue

Well, I've been craving a brightly coloured coat right from the start of the season, so this one from Blanco really hit a spot.



Oh, and yes, I cut my hair a bit too.

Help?

A dear friend of mine needs fashion help, so I'm asking you:

Do you have any clue whatsoever where one can find an eyeglass frame like the one above worn by Mr Caine?

Clinique Fresh Face of the Year

Last month, Clinique Greece launched Fresh Face of the Year, a facebook contest in search for the girl who will be the brand's face for 2012, having professional photoshoots, appearing in magazines and winning a year's supply of 3-Step.

While that first part of the contest is now over and everyone's waiting anxiously for the results, I just wanted to let you know that you can still play at the Fresh Face of the Year facebook app for a chance to be one of the 200 lucky girls who will win a Clinique 3-Step complete trial system.

Hurry up though, that one ends on January 10th.


Until then, I'll be test driving my new goodies - courtesy of Clinique Greece - and letting you know how that went in a future post!

Levi's Curve ID

Starting the new year with a new pair of jeans!

Those of you having trouble locating the perfect pair of skinny jeans to suit your specific body shape might be interested in the concept of Levi's Curve ID.

Their novelty is that each fit (skinny, straight or bootcut) and wash (dark, indigo, worn, e.t.c.) comes in three different types, according to your hip-to-waist ratio:

Bold Curve for those with booty and tiny waist
Demi Curve for those with moderate proportions
Slight Curve for the more boyish figures



And here are my own Demi Curve in dark wash and skinny fit, courtesy of Levi's Greece:

Amazing fit (I got fitted by a professional inside the store to determine my type and size with accuracy) great colour, really soft denim and skinny enough to tuck into boots without any unnecessary bulk.

I see my feud with tight jeans coming to an end.

Happy 2012

MAC Ruby Woo lipstick and silver sequin jacket by Blanco

What I would wear last night, if I hadn't stayed home, sneezing/coughing/shivering and stuff. Not that I am complaining though. Hey, absolutely zero hangover today.

Happy new year everyone!

Vladimir Karaleev "RE-FORMATION" SS2012

Berlin-based fashion designer Vladimir Karaleev showed his SS2012 collection RE-FORMATION at the 4FASHIONSHAKE IV by OZON that took place on Wednesday, Novenber 23rd at Pallas Theatre.


Athens String Quartet opened the show.


A while after, a semi-diaphanous fabric screen came down on the stage and divided it in half.
From being the main attraction, their performance bacame the perfect acoustic and visual background for Vladimir Karaleev's work.

As you will see yourselves, I had a hard time editing down the outfits, as I really liked them all and I considered them a solid body of work, so prepare for some serious scrolling.




















It was a great honour that OZON had Vadimir Karaleev come all the way from Berlin to organise his show and greet the audience.


Being the last show of the night, the closing moment involved everyone who participated - musicians, performers and models - sharing the stage for one last time.

Congrats everyone at OZON for yet another great event.
