Summer Blue

Is it in Miami? (nope) Malibu? (nope) Those palm trees you see are located in the National Garden in Athens.

I’m spending my last week in Athens, before heading to Crete for my vacations and since I couldn’t hit the beach for technical reasons, I spent last Saturday afternoon in the city, eating sushi in Furin Kazan, stopping by the National Garden for some photos and then hitting the stores for luggage shopping.

For this outing I chose an all (light) blue outfit consisting of my favorite denim shorts by Replay that I own for more than 5 years and a peplum top by Free People (which also isn’t new). I liked the top so much when I saw it that I bought it, despite being a US size 8 whereas I’d normally wear 4 or 6! The blue bag that completes the outfit is by Guess and it’s a recent purchase. Its blue color stroke a cord and I just had to get it!

I finished off my look with those beaded earrings, which added a tiny dose of red color and matched them with a coral-ish lipstick (the color is actually a combination)!

What do you think? Isn’t it an ideal summer outfit for both the city and vacations?

P.S. Oh yeah, after the wedding I chopped off my hair, but I guess you noticed that.
