Chambray Flowers
















































Hi lovelies,
How's the start to your weekend? 

This weekend I don't think much will be happening, just relaxing mostly. This morning my sister and I spent time at the beach, getting our tan on. I'm definitely much more of a natural tan kinda gal over self tanning, but I do remember to protect my skin by wearing SPF and making sure to constantly reapply it. Tomorrow though I think my family and I might head to the mall because my sister needs to get a few summery items before her trip to Costa Rica next week.

My sister and her boyfriend tend to take one big trip a year to an exotic country, this year it's Costa Rica. I'm quite jealous, I've never been before and it sounds amazing. They have some incredible yoga retreats when I researched online and it would be wonderful if I'd get to go to one some day, hopefully sometime in the future haha. Have any of you been to Costa Rica? What did you think of it?

I've been missing home a lot this week, especially because it's the Grand Prix at the moment and so all of my friends have come home from university and are going to all the lovely parties. It's making me miss them and I just want to be there with them enjoying the fun. My boyfriend also graduates next week and I don't get to be there, which is probably the thing that makes me the most sad, but I am really enjoying my time in Cyprus and am making the best of the weather and time with my sister. 

Alright, so for today's outfit I styled this chambray/denim floral dress. I think my favorite thing about it is the adorable lace detail on the trim and as the straps. I also really love the heart shaped neckline, which is flattering on most people and also really helps with cleavage (hehehehe.) I paired the dress with a loose cardigan and some bright blue espadrilles for a more chilled out vibe and then finished everything off with gold jewelry and an orange lip. 

The way I've styled this outfit is very casual and for everyday but you can just as well swap the shoes for some cute gladiator heels and your favorite leather jacket and go to dinner or a club.    

Light and love,
xx

Talking Body















































On Sunday, my sister's boyfriend surprised us by arriving earlier than planned; he got in late that night so my mom and I only got to see him on Monday. We went to one of my favorite sushi restaurants here in Limassol and then my sister, her boyfriend and I went to go see Fast and Furious 7. I had never seen any of the Fast and Furious movies until this one but I really enjoyed it, I absolutely fell in love with Vin Diesel as an actor and it was also very sad because he made a tribute to Paul Walker at the end of the film. 

For our family outing I styled this super quirky and cute outfit. I went for all black, with a navy cardigan but went for black floral shorts to add a statement. I love how the turtleneck works with the high waisted element of the shorts.

What do you guys think? And have any of you seen the new Fast and Furious, what did you think of the movie?

Light and love,

When Will I Stop Dreaming















































This weekend is Easter weekend here in Cyprus because like Russians (my nationality,) Cypriots are Orthodox and we celebrate the holiday at a different time. My mom spent today preparing traditional Easter food for tomorrow and we also went to run some errands. Our first stop was at the botanical shop.. I didn't want to leave. There were so many trees, plants and flowers of so many glorious colors. I just went around smelling all of them and looking at them; some of the flower tenders started to look at me weirdly. I also made friends with a little black and white cat who demanded to be scratched and followed me all around the garden. We then went to do some food shopping and run some other errands for my sister. 

I went for a very feminine and romantic look with the soft wavy hair. I opted for all neutral colors. I paired a short bodycon skirt with an airy and delicate cream cowl-neck top. I went with my trusty black ankle booties, my cape for both warmth and to add a chic element. I also went for some statement earrings to add some shine to the outfit. 

Happy Easter to all my Orthodox followers!
Light and love,
xx

Pilot Jones

Yesterday my family and I went out to a photography gallery and then went to do some shopping for my sister. 

The gallery was amazing, they were displaying a garden competition; there we beautiful photos of insects on plants, extraordinary detail of flowers and gardens.

We then went to do some shopping for my sister, our first stop was Aldo where they were having an opening party and we got free champagne and my sister got to play a game where she got 25% off her shoes. After that we just walked around the shopping street and sat in a cafe. The day ended with us going food shopping and that was about it for my Saturday.

I sported this cute boho outfit with the pretty floral blouse tucked into my high waisted jeans, an oversized cardigan and lots of rings as well as layered jewelry.

Light and love,
xx
