The leopard in me

21 November, 2011

Hello everyone! How was your weekend? I hope you’re having a great start of the week.

I have another outfit post from Nafplio ready for you. This one and the one from the previous post are some of my favourites so far. I hope you like them too.

I had this skirt in my closet for more than 2 months, but hadn’t worn it until now. In fact, I totally forgot to include it in my post with the new things I bought in the beginning of autumn. I was thinking of a way to make a more special outfit with this skirt, apart from the obvious one (another black and white outfit), so when I bought the leopard top I thought I’d give it a try to see how it looks with the skirt. And I think I loved the result. But I’ll be waiting to hear your thoughts about it.

Note that this post is super picture-heavy. You’ve been warned!

Zara coat, top and skirt, D&G bag, Killah booties, Donna Karan sunglasses, local jewellery shop earrings (Voila), H&M necklace, vintage watch, and Accessory Crossing bracelet (gift from my dear blogger-friend Denise).

Once more, I forgot my skin-colored tights home, so I decided to go bare-legged.
Luckily the weather was good enough to allow me do such thing.

I must confess that is was the first time that I wore so much jewellery together, as I don’t usually wear that many. But it was edgy in comparison with my usual looks and I liked it.

Despite my initial thought to keep the outfit simpler, I decided to wear the bracelet too, and to even wear it on top of my leopard blouse for a more special touch. Really different from what I would usually wear, but I chose to take that “risk”.

Once again T. is responsible for my outfit pictures, and I think that (with my guidance :P), he’s getting better and better at this. 😉

Can you tell that I was really excited about this “photoshoot”? I bet you do. But I believe that the outcome of the photos is really impressive. Wish I could take similar pics in my city too, but it’s much more crowded, and I’m so shy when it comes to “posing” for pics, especially in front of other people, who usually stare at you.

One more outfit post left to show you from my trip, and then I have to show you some fresh ones. But believe me, I needed that break from the outfit pics, and it couldn’t  have come in a better period, as I have really short time to do what I want these days. I’ll soon explain in one of my posts.

I hope you enjoyed reading this post. If so, all you have to do to show me your support is press one little follow button on the left sidebar. Every follow/like gives me the greatest pleasure, and strength to keep going with this blog. Huge thanks to everyone. Have a great day!

  1. W-O-W!!!! I said this word out loud when I saw your pictures! Vogue Italia went to Nafplio to photograph you? I didn’t know it! Because this is the only way to describe your photos! You look amaaaaaaaazing! Veeery beautiful!
    So now I have as my favorite outfits the one that you wore to a wedding (the green/pink one shoulder dress) and THIS ONE! I love the skirt, together with the leopard top and the booties! All so elegant, so classy! If Vogue Italia didn’t photograph you, then the it-girl was pictured by paparazzi when arriving to her holidays in Cannes/Nice!!!!
    Matching the outfit with such a classic, like that beautiful coat, was a great inspiration!
    And I am so honored again, thanks for mentioning me again!!! I’m so glad you liked the bracelet!
    Filakia pollaaaaaa and waiting for the other “Nafplio outfit”!

    • My dear Denise, I am the one who is honored to receive such a comment. Wow to you! You made me smile, you made me blush, you made me, once again, really excited! Thank you!!!! 🙂
      I put a lot energy and love to this “photoshooting”. From putting this outfit together, to scheduling the right time for these photos with T , and trying to be more loose for these pictures. It was really exciting and a huge step for me (as I’m a really shy person in real life, as I told you). It’s definitely one of my favourite outfits too, and the photos in my opinion were fantastic too.
      I felt so elegant in this outfit, wearing 12cm booties, and pencil skirt, with leopard top, early in the morning in Nafplio. hehe… Wish I could do it all the time without having people staring at me and judging my clothes and shoes.
      I’m so glad you liked it. I was eagerly waiting for your comment. Thank you 🙂

      • However, I want to add, that the last outfit post from Nafplio, is much more casual than this one, and you’ve already seen that dress. But I had to take it with me…

  2. Όμορφο το ντύσιμο σου και μου άρεσε το λεοπάρ που δεν το συνδύασες κλασσικά με μαύρο αλλά με ασπρόμαυρο!! Έκανε την διαφορά!! Καλή συνέχεια!! Φιλιά!

  7. πολύ ωραίος ο συνδυασμός του λεοπάρ με το ασπρόμαυρο!
    Και επίσης πολύ ωραίες οι φωτογραφίες!! 🙂
    Η αλήθεια είναι ότι αυτή τη φούστα μπορείς να τη συνδυάσεις με ότι χρώμα μπλούζα θέλεις (να κάνεις ένα colorblocking δηλαδή)…εγώ θα σκεφτόμουν κάτι σε κόκκινο ή φούξια (είναι τα πρώτα χρώματα που μου έρχονται κατά νου :P)

    • S’euxaristw poli Anna! Nai, exeis dikio…to kokkino to skeftika kai egw…mallon tha einai i epomeni epilogi mou..molis kataferw epitelous na katevasw ta xeimwniatika mou pou akoma den to xw kanei…
