Summertime Sadness

Hi petals! 

How was everyone's weekend? How about your Monday? 

I had an interview at a Forex company for a marketing internship this morning and I got it eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek! I start tomorrow and I am so excited. I've never really been interested in finance but it's going to be something new to learn and also I'll get to find out about all the things that go into marketing. I'll post a little photo of me in front of the building that I took after I got the fantastic news. 

I also received a wonderful gift from a friend in the mail today; this badass anti-stress coloring book that he created himself using math. I'm a bit of a nerd so getting stuff like this that shows how math and physics makes up all the beauty of the universe makes me so happy. On top of all of that my mom finally got her face cream she's been waiting months for, so it's just been a wonderful beginning of the week all around.

This weekend is also busy busy busy. Friday evening we have a work beach party nearby to my house and Saturday my family is headed for facials that we won at the supermarket, then in the afternoon a barbecue in Larnaca at a work colleague's house. 

Oh I have a song to recommend, Treasured Soul by Michael Calfan. It really has those summer vibes, like you should just be hanging out at a beach party and the video is just as cool. 

Alright alright, so for today's outfit I mixed some minimal pieces with some bohemian ones. I went for a neutral skirt and sandals but went for a funky top with the multicolored aztec print. I then chose a chunky crystal statement necklace to finish it all off. This day was particularly fun to shoot because it was windy so I played around in it and my Aunt's cats were prowling everywhere. The one you see in one of my photos is Habibi, she absolutely adoooooooooooores attention. 

Well I hope you are all having a good start of the week as well.

Light and love,

xx

Festival Vibes

Hi sunshines!

How are you all doing? I've not been feeling my best, there's issues going on in my family and my mom is super stressed and it's just awful to see her this way. My sister got back from Costa Rica today, which should make things a little easier.

Anyway, not to dwell on bad vibes too much. 

In today's outfit I am totally channeling that festival vibe, and this is definitely a go-to look for me when the festival season comes around. It's got a fun pop of color with the neon mesh crop top contraption and I love how the high-waisted jeans give a bit of an 80's feel. I went for my favorite pair of heels; I love them because they have a thick platform which is less painful on the feet and I think they dress up the outfit.

Light and love,

Fringin' About

Hi petals, 

How's your weekend?

Mine has been pretty slow, nothing interesting has happened so I'm afraid I don't have much to say today (don't hate meeeeeee.) 

Today I'm sharing with you an outfit that I am absolutely head over heels for. When I got dressed my mom told me I belonged in Hawaii but in a good way, and I would have to agree, it's very tropical. I really felt like embodying summer so I paired a tropical cropped blouse with some beaaaaautiful suede fringe shorts I picked up in Zara maybe 3 or 4 years ago. Since the tone of the look is very warm, I paired my favorite gladiator sandals and opted for gold jewelry. I finished the whole look off with a fun orange lip. 

Light and love,

Need Me

Hi lovelies,

It's getting extremely hot here in Cyprus, past the 30 degree mark so it means it's time for all the summer clothes to come out. Oh and a lot of time spent at the beach!

When my sister's boyfriend took my family out shopping I fell in love with these shorts in Bershka. They are this wonderful light material and come in the usual black and white but also khaki, which I really liked, but went for this muted coral color. I thought I would style them, so I paired it with this high neck striped crop top and some white minimal sandals I got from Zara last summer. 

Light and love,

xx
