Helloooooo buns!! Welcome!

I know I haven't posted for a long time now BUT I'm here today with a new dress! The Neon Pumps Project is still on and I have 3 more outfits to come during the next few weeks (I'm still waiting for them to be delivered).

So let me remind you that the event, for which I started the Project at the first place, is taking place at the end of the June! So I pretty much have four weeks to choose THE dress to match my Irregular Choice Neon Glitter Pumps AND accessorize the outfit AND take pictures for you to see!

With all that said, I present you the next dress that caught my eye and I love its design. The Kimono Dress!

So this dress comes from WEEKDAY 

I actually found it in their store in Mariahilferstrasse. I visit the shop often so when I saw this dress - which was on sales!- I fell in love with its colors and the way it fits. I got size L and its good. I couuuuuuld size up but L is their bigger size. The purple glitter shocks that I wear in the first picture are also by WEEKDAY and they have them in many colors. I like the purple cause it is kinda binding the dress to the shoes. Let's point out that Stergios didn't like the lenght of the shocks, or the color contrast...something was off there for him anyway hahaha.

I was obsessed though with the idea of wearing this dress and shoes with shocks and I bought few different patterns to try. So apart the WEEKDAY purple shocks I also got these pairs by Monki. The animal print and the lime shocks where in promotion you get 3 pairs and you pay 2 so I also got some other designs for future use into other outfits. What do you think of the combination? (Btw, Stergios prefered the lime ones by far).

Ok I got the dress, I had the socks, and I needed the accessories! So let me tell you a little backstage story.

At first, I was looking for a specifiq hairpiece by Zara, the Rhinestone hair clip, but I couldn't find it in their shop and I didn't have the time to get it online and wait for it to arrive, so I had to go with a plan B, earrings.

I also found these Diamond Toucan earrings at Zara which I liked at the moment but they were kinda BIG and I thought that if I don't find something else I would probably get them, get my hair in a bun or something so you can see them etc.

So after wandering to the shops I got into Bijou Brigitte at Mariahilferstrasse, and I couldn't find a hairpiece similar to Zara's one buuut I found the earrings for the outfit.I have to say, I loooove these earrings. They have lots of variations and similar designs in their website,  Bijou Brigitte if you want to check it.

What I love about my earrings is how the sunlight goes through the colored material and reflects the colors on my skin.You can see that in the pictures, a great combination to the sunny day and the outfit!

Bottom line I love this dress. I am definatelly gonna wear it a lot. I bought this Play Net Dress by WEEKDAY, so I wear it underneath this kimono dress because whenever I sit in a chair my thighs sneak out to socialize with my friends . They have it in white as well, I got the black one. Unfortunatelly I couldn't find my dress in their online shop but I also like these ones, check them out if you are interested. The Layna Dress and the Pedal Dress .

Sooooo, feel free to tell me what you think! I have 3 more outfits for you and I would love to know your thoughts so far! You can always comment here below the post or on my Instagram page!

Helloooooo buns! Welcome!

These last few months, among all the dresses, the shoes, the blog, happiness and joy there has been this small, little detail. I have to get a surgery operation (noooooooooo). The days have passed and soon I'll be posting pictures from the clinic's room .

For the history, I had this very same operation back in 2011 and I'm familiar with the procedure, the post-surgery rehabilitation and actually this whole thing appears like a bad Deja-vu in my mind. Mainly because back in 2011 I had to stay in bed for a couple of weeks and it took me like a month or so to be able to sit down or walk properly. So since February, when I got the "happy" news of  going through the same shitty period again (in case nothing gets different this time), I've been pretty much preparing myself for a long period of whining, moaning and bitching in general (good luck Stergios & mom) During these months I've been trying not to think about it, I've been 'playing' the whole procedure in my mind so I get myself prepared, I've been thinking that I need to be mature about it and evaluate the health benefits after that etc etc. But this last week before the surgery I feel that I just need to express my fears and my worries about the whole surgery and take those thoughts out of my mind, share them with my family and set them free so they don't get bigger in my mind with no actual reason.

Aaaaand being in that state of mind I decided to pack my clinic bag with some pretty things that sparkle joy (you say it Marie!)

So, first thing first I needed a bathrobe and I've always had my eye on these linen ones by H&M! I got mine in a nice blue striped pattern that I love cause it's fresh and summery and I'm gonna use it a lot during summer! I love it! I got it in size L/Xl and it fits perfectly.

Then I needed a nightgown and not pajamas. I sleep in t-shirts so I had to buy a nightgown I saw a lot of them in the classic cotton versions but they weren't fresh or airy enough and anyway didn't make me happy. And then while I was at H&M looking for the bathrobe I saw this summer dress calling me from its rack The material is cotton but light and soft, it's airy enough and not very short! I don't care that it's not an actual nightgown, it's more like an 'I like it I wear it' situation. It makes me feel pretty and it's coming with me into the bed of pain .

I found few amazing bralettes as well, so I feel comfortable while moving around in a nightgown. This is an amazing romantic one and this mesh one I got it in both black and beige and they fit greeeeat! All by Monki, they have a 'Get 3 pay 2' thing running over their underwear collection these days so you might want to think about it! And considering my Bra size is EU 90F (US 40DDD, GB 40E) these bralettes fit quite well!

Also I have this summer rubber slippers by FILA . They are coming with us too.

And theeeeen I decided to take some of my favorite beauty products with me just in case I am able to move ahhahaah. No it's not the highlighter and my mascara.

I packed my all-time favorite facial  Cleansing Balm ever. I found it in ASOS and I use it everyday. I love love love it! The brand is called Yes To and they have a lot of skincare products. I've only tried this one and I am very  surprised of how a balm works that good on my skin and there is no feel of oilness after that. Basically you dampen the sponge that comes with it and then you dip it into the jar and scoop out a small amount of balm, you rub the balm all around your dry skin (face and neck), you massage your face gently and then you add water to the sponge so you rinse and wipe the skin clean! Smooth and moist glowing skin! So hopefully with a little help from my mom I will be able to do that while being in bed

Then I'm packing my day and night face creams. I use these ones by Avene. I'm very happy with their products. I know Avene since I had acne issues and the dermatologist suggested it to me.

I also packed a foam body lotion by Bilou .Bilou's philosophy is "All of our bilou products are full of “love & passion”. Unconventional fragrances to sweeten your day and make life more beautiful. All bilou products are made with lots of love and we take particular care to use good ingredients." I've never tried its products before so I will let you know how it goes! But it smells nice and it feels kinda fresh (just don't use a big amount of it). It's in foam form and when you apply it on your body its texture feels like body cream but lighter. I got the Snow Rose and the Cherry Kisses !

The clinic beauty kit also contains (just in case you go through the same thing at some point) baby wipes, towels, socks and underwear, my roll-on deodorant so I don't spray onto other patient's faces, toothpast-toothbrush, headband for bad hair days, rechargers and the tablet Did I forget something? Let me know below!

Also when your friends love you and are amazing people and when they are fans of your blog then they send the essentials for you to keep blogging and getting organized, even if you are in a hospital bed. That's the case for my baby Dimitra, my friend from far far away - California- who packed a box full of joy and love and sent it to me <3 <3 <3 You'll get to know Dimitra and her magic hands better later in a post of mine because she is SO SO talented (shhhhhhs that's all for now), but now I need to say that this girl has so much love in her heart which reaches you even that far away!

So Dimitra sent me a sunny notebook so I keep my thoughts while I'm offline, a sailormoon charm to keep me happy :D, "unicorn and flamingo and everything nice" paper clips so I don't get lost in my thoughts, a happy kitty pen to meow meow the best of my thoughts, an amazing set of 18 colors Journal Planner Fineliner Pens (and I didn't even have to tell her that I love fineliners) so I draw hearts and abstract symbols on my notebook (as I always do), a selection of the cooler stickers ever, Deadpool of course and my beloved professor Severus Snape (plus bows and cupcakes cause they are never enough). And of course a 'strawberries in dark chocolate' chocolove cause that's the best way to love a strawberry and me

Weeeeell, bottom line, I don't know how my mood will be after the operation. I will probably moan and complain because people don't change hahahaha! But now at some level I feel a little bit more optimistic. Let's see if clothing and objects that we like are just enough to brighten your mood in a hospital bed and make your staying a bit more bearable! Now, that's an experiment my buns

Helloooooo buns!! Welcome!

Today it's the day after the Easter Day here in Austria, which means Egg Hunting, lots of colored eggs, bunnies and Spring!

Now tell me, would there be any other moment more iiiiiideeeal than this for me to present the next dress??? I say NO! Sooooo the Dress Hunting *wink* brought me a Multicolored Pattern Dress *wink wink* ! From me to you all, myyyyy hunbunnies! *wink wink wink*

So this is another H&M Dress ( I know, I love H&M and sorry I'm not sorry ).

It's from their Studio Collection which in general has amazing pieces. Now you might ask what their Studio Collection is. Well according to their campaign "H&M Studio is a collection of seasonal key pieces created by our dedicated design team. This spring, we invite you to a dusty desert adventure where utility styles meet decadent luxe. It’s a thrilling combination of sunset-ready statement pieces and effortless, yet endlessly chic, wardrobe staples."

Now, as you might notice on the site, the price for this dress (149euro) is a bit higher than the ones we are used to see by H&M. But once you get the dress in your hands you can tell that the fabric's quality isn't cheap, the stitching is very well-made and the pattern is mesmerizing. It's made of crêped chiffon and its design is very unique!

And let me tell you, I really hunt this animal print dress down haha!

I first noticed this dress back in March, when H&M presented their S/S19 collection to Vienna's central shops. Let me tell you, it was love on the first sight for me. The pattern is AMAZING, the animal print's colors are sooooo unique and the dress's cut is what I love for my sillouette, airy and light!

Soooo I got online to check the available sizes but the Dress appeared SOLD OUT  in every different site I was logging in! I couldn't find it anywhere! I tried the german,the UK, the greek online store but noooo luck at all   Then I went to all the 6 H&M stores I know around here and I managed to find only one piece in a smaller size, I think 40. Yes, of course I tried it, and because it's airy it did fit but looked bad on me so I didn't buy it and I was saaaad,but almost setting my mind off of it.

And theeeeen, after a week or so, while scrolling down H&M's page I saw the dress! Available! On size EU46 (US14  UK18)! Yeah it's not my size (EU48, US16 UK20) but I HAD TO try it, the design looked so airy and there was a good chance it fitted well!

You can see on the pictures how it fits, its length is perfect for me and the assymetrical hem's cut makes it look so cool and breezy when you move, which is everything I wish for a summer day!

I really love the neckline, it's deep but there is a small button on the middle of it so you can either use it or leave it open and loose. There are two pairs of fabric strings around the neckline so you can either bow-tie them and the dress has a ruffled turtle-neck, or leave everything loose and feel sexy, breezy and all There are more of those fabric strings around the dress on such spots that you can actually adjust or alter dress's shape and design! Very cool if you ask me! Well done H&M's Design Team! <3 <3 <3

Now, you still need an underdress with this dress so I used this one I bought by H&M (in size XL), and I'm very happy with it.

Another fact is that this dress is such a statement piece by itself that you really don't need to wear earrings, necklaces or bracelets! I tried a thin leather braided belt on it but it didnt work for my body, or at least that's what I think But I really don't mind wearing just the dress and no accessories at all. Maybe a cocktail golden ring? And if you ask me I absolutely adore this dress's pattern and colors  matched to my Neon Pumps!

Actually, I need help with this one.

Me? I love the pattern and the design, and the feeling wearing this dress is veeery pleasant BUT NOW

a) my mom and b) Stergios aren't that excited about the way it fits.

a) My mom was excited when she saw this dress online (yeah the model looks amazing wearing it, I know) and she even wanted to pay for it, and she was looking  for it online non-stop just in case it pops on an H&M site. Now that she saw me wearing it she feels less enthousiastic hahaha. There is something that doesn't fit that good on me but she can't tell what.

b) Stergios at first was like "oh well"  and when he saw the price was more like "uhm are you 100% sure and excited that this is the one you like?" hahaha

And here it's me now having second (and third and fourth and 149th) thoughts about it

What do you think??? I'm actually sending SOS messages here Please let me know what you think (good or bad)  by leaving a comment bellow! Do you like it or do you think I should keep looking?

Helloooooo Buns! Welcome!

This week I have a Ruffled Dress by ASOS!

If you are not familiar with ASOS I will tell you what I know and what I've noticed so far about ASOS. It's not a sponsored post so it's just what I know and what I've experienced by trying out their clothes.

Basically ASOS has a variety of Designers to choose from but they also have their own designs labeled 'ASOS'. They also do great sales up to -70% occasionally which last long, and they have a CURVE Line as well as a TALL Line and a PETITE one. So they try hard to help any kind of bodytype to find the perfect garment. And they have a very realistic and respectful Return Policy, you buy- it doesn't fit- you send it back with no charges at all- you take a refund.I REALLY love and appreciate that because when you shop online you are never sure about sizing, especially when there is a variety of designers to choose from. So they have a very nice size guiding system where you can write down your measurements but you can also write down what size you are in different famous designers and they even ask more detailed questions for you to answer related to how your body looks like, bigger thighs, average bust, etc etc. You should definitely try it if you decide to shop with them.

So,I should order this dress in a size 48 (EU) but it wasn't available and I really wanted it so much so I thought to give it a try and buy the size 50 because I was feeling lucky...Well, I wasn't The dress is too loose and it is ruffled in that way that is not possible to alter it . It's SUPER see-through and there is no undergarment coming with it so you need to buy your own. I like though how etherial the fabric is, it is sexy And of course because its back is open (I was really fond of it) you can forget your bra. I know that I said 'no backless dresses' but when I saw the model wearing it on the pictures, the back cut wasn't that deep as it actually was on me, reaching my waist. Soooooo unfortunatelly I can't use it for my Project. Also the dress was on sales and the price was great compared to the starting price.

So what I like on its pattern is that there are different yellowish hues of yellow and it was another version of the yellow total match concept. I also loooove the collar neck and its sleeves, so aetherial. I wasn't sure about how the ruffles would look on me (not Ruffles the chips, we all know how those look on my bum haha <3 ) but I thought 'heeey lets trust the designer behind this dress and give it a chance' and you know, because the fabric is so soft and light the ruffles actually helps your movement and the whole outfit looks cool and breezy. I reallly like this dress and I'm sad it didn't work for me snif snif.

I accessorized this one with pearls (unfortunatelly not real ones haha) and I kept the red lipstick + eyeliner on my make-up. Maybe with this dress a long pair of earrings would also be a match and I saw a couple of pairs in ZARA. Earrings no1 and Long Earrings no2  (I'm sorry I call them no1 & no2 but the models have no name) . And I found some amazing earrings in MANGO as well, you should check them out.

• Earrings with floral motive
• Earrings with pearl decorated flower
• Assymetrical Crystal Earrings
• Assymetrical Crystal Earrings hearts 

Soooo bottom line I'm kinda sad about this dress, I really wanted this to happen   Aaaaaand I feel that after all this yellow I wore for the past 2 weeks it's time for me to experiment with some other colors as well...I NEED it hahaha...And another funny thing, I feel that if I keep on with my Project I will eventually be fed up of all the dresses and I will just want to wear sweatpants hmmmm sweatpants with my pumps? hmmmmm...

PS: I'm sorry mom, grandma, OCD friends of mine, steamers and ASOS that I didnt steam the dress, it was too delicate I got scared to

Helloooooo Buns! Welcome!

I have a new dress! Yaaaaaay!

The Neon Pumps meets The Perfect Dress Project keeps going on and this time I wanted to try a 'ton sur ton' outfit. So, yellow it is!

This is another H&M dress! I bought it online in size 48 (I couldn't find it in a psysical shop). For some reason H&M, at least here in Vienna, seems to keep their bigger sizes just online. ANNOYING. Because I have to order the dress, wait like few days for it to arrive (their orders arrive very very fast though) and then in case it doesn't fit me I have to return it. Pretty much a week for me just to try a dress... Me don't like...Also this time I was a bit confused cause I never got a confirmation email which usually comes couple of minutes after you place the order (I ordered this one on a Friday evening) so I had to email them, try to reach them over their chat-window in their site -which you can use only if you speak German- and finally call them (the girl didn't speak english but was super nice) in order to get my answers. Phew...

Aaaaanyway...To the happy stuff now This Yellow Dress has buttons - yay,  pockets, and 3/4 length sleeves which are my most favorite sleeves ever . Also, its flared skirt's length is veeeery flattering.

BUT you definitely need a chemise, (I bought this one from H&M in the size XL, beige, and it fits great) because the dress is kinda see-through especially under the sun

The fabric is veeeery pleasant to touch, very airy and follows the body's movement. I really like its quality. The color is amazing, fresh, summerish and sunny! I love how it fits me, I like the elastic-band waist, I believe it looks nice on my waist. I would ADORE it even more if there weren't any pockets on the upper part for this specific event. It's ideal though for a casual outfit, I love it.

I accessorized this outfit with some pearls (they aren't real pearls,don't get excited ) and a red lipstick! I was looking for a statement necklace or huge pair of earrings in a yellow hue but unfortunately I couldn't find anything while I was walking around today.

Backstage:

This week I tried couple of faaaaaancy dresses in C&A and I would say that I kinda like the green one, what do you think?? I sized down  and it looked way better on the upper part I'm still bit concerned though of the tattoo+priest situation if I go bare- arms .

*Thank you Lady Butterfly for taking the picture for me!

This was my Yellow Dress! Next week another one is coming and let's see how it goes

Helloooooo buns! Welcome!

At some point during April, when the weather was sunny and summerish, I had some coffee and chocolate cake in 'The First Floor' / 'Proto Patoma' Cafe (in Thessaloniki Greece) with my cute, smart, funny, beauuuutiful friend Katerina! Yaaaay!!

I know Katerina since she was a schoolgirl, walking around carrying a huge backpack. I love this girl because she is SO unique. She is very artistic, very imaginative, creative, she smiles a lot, she is so soooo SO funny, plus she is restless, I mean she has so many ideas and she won't stay back and wait for them to happen. She makes them happen (no surprise there, I mean, I know who her mom is hahaha). Katerina plays a musical instrument, sings, draws, loves cinematography and she also READS BOOKS! :O She has created 'Books and Moons' on Instagram and the way she describes herself is the following:

• A spaceman who loves reading among the stars
•  Musician
• Traveler
• Dreamer
• ...and also a Slytherin"

So our girl was there, we've ordered some caffeine (we are both addicted to it) and we were complimenting each others' hair, outfit etc etc. Let the positivity flow!

FHB: Sooooo Katerinaki, I hear you've created a page on Instagram called 'Books and Moons'. Tell us more about it.

Katerina: Yes. Well I love reading. So I read books and I share them with my followers. It doesn't have to be a masterpiece for me to share, I read a book and I just share my opinion about it. My goal is to put new writters or titles on to my followers and maybe they are interested on some of them. I also post photos of the books, a small summary, my opinion about it and I copy a small phrase from the book that I like or means something to me.

FHB: But why Books and Moons?

Katerina: Well I love books and planets and space...So, that's that hahaha

FHB: Was there anyone who asked you to read a specific book and share your opinion about it?

Katerina: No not yet haha.

FHB: Have you met people via your page? Do people respond to the page?

Katerina: Yes, I've met lot of people online. We communicate our ideas, we are talking about our readings and we often disagree hehehe. The truth is most of my followers are also bookworms like me hahaha. But you know, I'm very happy that some of my followers don't even have an account on Bookstagram!

FHB: Have you met more women or men..? Give us a feedback hahaha

Katerina: Oh it's definately more women..I've met few men reading and the ones I've met they kinda like theater, they are artists etc..Also, there are lots of events about reading, they gather over coffee and share their opinions..I haven't joined any yet though.

FHB: Oh nice...so I guess your followers do communicate with you or...?

Katerina: Yes yes, we interact...They mainly comment on the pictures though. For example if the picture is vintage and brings memories to them or when they feel nostalgic (which happens mainly when I post children's books) they post comments.

FHB: So Instagram IS all about pictures hahaha

Katerina: Yeah yeah The picture is what tempts them to give a chance to a book...

FHB:Have you ever thought of an actual 'Books and Moons' book club? I mean physically meeting with people..

Katerina: That would be cool...and they might respond! hahaha

FHB: Or you could go on tour to different cities meeting followers and be like a book club on wheels Because you love traveling

Katerina: That would be interesting!!

FHB: Actually, how do you disagree with your followers about books? Do they message you when they disagree to your opinion?

Katerina: We don't disagree...We exchange opinions politely hahaha... Yes they tell me so hahaha.

FHB: Well, your books are in Greek...Are your followers only Greeks?

Katerina: No actually I have people following me from other countries as well!

FHB: Wow I wasn't expecting that! How does this work?

Katerina: Yes! Well, I always write the book's title in english so everybody can check on it.

FHB: So I guess your followers post comments, or  you chat in personal messages? What do you talk about?

Katerina: Oh yeah all the above...

FHB: Oh ok, so you talk about the books...Just books?? No flirting??? hahaha

Katerina: Oh yeah,sometimes there is some flirting hahaha. Well you have common interests with someone, you know Reading & Instagram help you fall in love hahaha

FHB:Yeah yeah I know hahaha.So, Instagram, Bookstagram or Facebook..oh there are a lot and I wonder how is it you talking about books and reading in a social media platform that is so fast-moving and mainly visual?

Katerina: Ohh actually I'm not that much of a social media person hahaha... I mean I always want to say more, to express my thoughts more thoroughly than I eventually do. Mainly because you know, people won't read a HUGE summary. But the good thing is that my followers respond directly and there are so many different personalities and all these accounts eventually interact pretty nice to each other. Now the fact that Instagram works mainly with pictures and images actually helps me a lot because a nice image can be imprinted to people's mind. And that's why I try my best for every book's picture that I upload. I want them to be thoughtful and nice I also enjoy taking pictures! But I also believe that the followers realize you are serious about your page or your content when you take care of your pictures, when they are polished, under the appropriate light and color or background combination.

FHB: I love the pictures you take! And I know there is a funny story containing the words "morning-forest-police" hahaha. Would you like to share? Don't worry nobody reads us!

Katerina: Hahahaha. OK! It was an early autumn morning and I think it was around 8:00 o'clock so I had this idea to grab few books and go to Florina's river (that's where Katerina studies) in order to take some pictures for the covers. Book covers' aesthetic matched the fall background.

FHB: So did you have lots of books with you?

Katerina: Uhm..like 5 hahaha

FHB: Oohh ok ok..I feel I want to ask what time  the sun was rising at that point in Florina hahaha

Katerina: Yeah...you know, there is a high mountain on the east part of Florina so the sun beside the river rises after 8:00 am.

FHB: Hahaha oh well....

Katerina: Hahaha. Yes. So, there was sooome light but not bright and shinny I was walking by the river, there were some people running, exercising etc so I thought "let's walk into this small path which leads a little bit further into the forest" . I walked half the way down the path and I started gathering rocks so I could put my books next to them and take some pictures. I was kneeling trying to do that and fix the background, the light etc.

FHB: Like digging a hole to burry something...? Oooor like you had just burried it and now you were placing rocks on the spot to mark it...? hahahahah

Katerina: Hahahaha yes, it MIGHT  have looked pretty much like that from some distance!

FHB: Or maybe like you were planting that 5-leaf tree you brought with you? Just so the books look nicer next to it...???

Katerina: NOOOOO! Hahahaha. Listen, at some point while me doing that I heard a car engine's noise kinda approaching me, but I didn't pay more attention to that as I was pretty occupied. I remember  I turned around once and I saw that there was a police jeep coming down the path and stopped  at some distance behind me. And I thought "Oh well" and I kept taking pictures of my books while kneeling. After while the car's doors opened and two policemen were coming towards me.

One of them came right next to me and he was like "Goodmorning. What are you doing here that early?" and I was like "I'm taking pictures of the books." And then he asked me if he could take a look in my backpack while he was trying to hide his laugh hahaha. I replied "yeah sure", he asked for my ID (thank Holy Caffeine that I had my wallet with me just in case I wanted to get some coffee later). And while one policeman was checking on my ID the other guy opened my bag (in which I had more books, two pine cones, and some twigs that I wanted to plant back home) and he started laughing . So after that they thanked me and got back in the car but they wouldn't leave hahaha. Me? I took pictures of the rest of mybooks, after that I got up and started walking slowly around while taking more pictures of the trees, some branches, the flowers etc.  and they were still THERE!

FHB: Hahaha so those five books were photoshooted by the presence of the police! :O You must tell us which these books were!

Katerina: Let me think. One was E. Durschmied's 'Whisper of the blade', F. Nietzsche's 'Twilight of the idols',  Ch. Baudelaire's  'Le spleen des Paris'... I don't remember the rest of them sorry!

FHB: Well...I loved this story when I first heard it. To be honest I was surprised of how early you woke up just so you take pictures of the books!

Katerina: Haha yes...I needed the morning light! hahaha

FHB: But how come you decided to start the "Books and Moons"? That significant moment you said "I'm doing it" ? 

Katerina: You know, I wanted to do it for sooo long but I wouldn't make up my mind. I was skeptical thinking "why would anyone respond to that or how would that work?" And also the "who am I and what is it I have to share to the public?". Then I realised I was thinking B@llsh!t! And that's how I grabbed 'The little prince' by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry and I started taking pictures of it...It was a November's night around 11:00 pm 

FHB: Hahaha very cinematic So I know that you read, we all know that now, but I want to ask you WHY you read? What is reading's benefits for you?

Katerina: I read since I remember myself and I kinda "blame" my mother for that. I have memories of her reading and while doing that she looked so calm and peaceful. But she never forced me into reading although she was gifting me books. I think it just seemed natural after watching her doing it and because she did I love reading as well.Basically by reading I improve my speech quality, I 'live' new experiences which probably I won't be able to live, ever. But the biggest gift is expanding my imagination's limits...

FHB: So what kind of books do you read?

Katerina: Oh what I choose to read depends on my mood at the current moment...For example if I feel bored or dull I would read fantasy novels, or if it's a period when I am dragged into deep thoughts my best choice would be philosophy.

FHB:Do you like all the kinds of literature?

Katerina: Uhm, it appears I can't read crime fiction. For some reason I am not appealed by it at all. Oh I can't read Harlequin books neither hahaha

FHB: Hahaha good to know! I know that you like fantasy books though? You mean dragons, elves etc or...?

Katerina: Yes. Dragons, lost civilizations, elves, dwarves, magic. In my mind the reality, like the fact that cars have 4 wheels and are red, green etc is boring. I would love if fantasy worlds were real.

FHB: Which one is your favorite book?

Katerina: Oh my favorite book lately is Guenassia's 'The club of incorrigible optimists'. This book was the reason I skipped classes once hahaha.

FHB: Just once?

Katerina: Yes yes. Hiiii mom! hahaha. The book has 700 pages and I finished it in 3 days.

FHB: !!! How long do you need to read let's say 100 pages?

Katerina: Mmm it depends. I can't tell for sure cause it depends if the book is easy, if I like it etc...Actually after reading for so many years,I have reached a point where reading a 'difficult/heavy' books is now easier for me. But in general I avoid fast reading so I am able to picture what I read better. Because that's the beauty of reading.

FHB: Ok yeah...So what is your favorite book about?

Katerina: When I saw this book I thought it would be a happy optimistic book, sending happy messages and it turned out that it was not even close to that hahaha. It's about a 15 years old boy in Paris during 1960s who loved reading books and he also participated in a chess club in which many famous historical figures were participating as well. So the book is about kid's life, his relationship with his parents and the everyday life during 1960s. The kid is way more mature of his age and the messages you get are about how to accept life and its problems or how to resolve them. It has many information about music, about historical figures' lives etc.

FHB: So this is your most favorite book. Just this one?

Katerina: This and H. A. Faciolince's 'Oblivion: A memoir'. It's about his father,taking place in Colombia during 1960s until 1987 .His father fights for human rights, women's rights, for liberty and goes against his government for that. This book was so affecting... I read it while traveling and I was crying on the bus. The father believed that when we die we become an oblivion and we should do good while being alive so people remember us after our death.

FHB: Is there a book that you don't like at all? Maybe it schocked you, or made you miserable hahaha

Katerina: Yeeees...I know what I'm about to say it looks like blaspheme to some people, but I can't read Stephen King hahaha. I tried to read 'The Shining' but I just couldn't finish it. That happened while I was on high school, and the only spare time for me to read back then was in bed right before I sleep. Bad timing hahaha. For a long period I had nightmares, I was sweating in my sleep, I wasn't sleeping well at all hahaha. I tried really hard to finish it but I just couldn't...

FHB: Ok yeah I can see why haha! But do you try to finish the books you read even if it's difficult to 'digest' ? I mean were there 'difficult' books that you made extra effort to read and you pushed yourself through it?

Katerina: Yeah, there was this book about Art's necessity in our life. Basically the book says that us humans wouldn't differ to the rest creatures alive if  we wouldn't create art. The humans express through the arts ( painting, maths, theater etc) their spirit, their soul. I really reaaally liked the book but there were too much information in the text, it was an old book written in polytonic system, written with complicated words...and its sentences were SO long! You wouldn't meet a foolstop for many lines ahead! So I had to read the same paragraphs over and over just so I understand their meaning. That's why I got tired by it.

FHB: Really, what's the difference between old and new books? I mean in the way they are written.

Katerina: Basically, in the older books the information or the knowledge they wanted to pass to the readers weren't filtered or given clear for you to digest. You had to read whole pages of maaany other informations just so you end up at page #100 to the conclusion. Nowadays the books are written in a simpler, clearer way so it's easier for the readers to see the point. Smaller sentences, simpler words... In the older books the meaning were actually hidden behind the words so you had to look for it. Now everything is given clear so it's faster for you to read and find what you need. It feels like this is the reason, you being able to reach the knowledge/ meaning faster so you don't 'waste' time looking for it.

FHB: So what is your position when you don't like a book? How do you say that publicly on Instagram?

Katerina: I just say my opinion politely. If you like a book or not is so subjective. Some books are just not for me, I'm not ashamed to admit it and I definately don't think that if I don't like a book the book is not good! For example I tried to read Kafka's 'The Metamorphosis'. It's a famous book, famous writter and for so many people the book is a masterpiece. Well I couldn't read it. I felt very uncomfortable and the pictures of what I was reading were so not appealing in my mind.

FHB: Never finished it?

Katerina: No... I don't like me leaving unfinished books, I always try to finish them, maybe later at some point when I feel more ready. An example of that is T. Robbins' s  'Still life with woodpecker'. I started this book back when I was 14 and I stopped reading it at some point. I grabbed it again later when I was 17 and I couldn't finish it neither. And then during me studying at the university I gave it a try and I loved it! Sometimes we are just not ready to read a specifiq book. That's ok. Nothing weird there.

FHB: Are all the kind of books beneficial? What do you think?

Katerina: Everytime I read a different kind of book, the way I approach its content differs. For example, I've noticed that whenever I read psychological books I get to analyse what I read in a more critical way. Let's say based on logic. At some point I tried to read only psychology/philosophy related books for two months ( I love both kinds). For some reason that helped me at that level to resolve a personal problematic situation I was in back then. I actually acted on it because of what I read in the book. I personally get different benefits from all the different kinds of literature. When I get tired and I need fun, I read Fantasy books.

FHB: Reasons for someone to start reading...? What would you tell people to convience them to grab a book?

Katerina: Hmm...you know when you read a book it's you and this story. It's kinda a relationship you create with the hero and the person who wrote the book. It's your thoughts and emotions and somebody else's thoughts- the author's. You might see yourself in a character, think about yourself under the certain circumstances. Maybe you find solutions to your own problems, thoughts, needs. In a book you might find fears you avoid to face in real life. In a book you could read whatever you are afraid to admit to the person next to you or whatever you afraid to go after.

FHB: Ok, so I want to begin reading. Where do I start? How do I choose my first book?

Katerina: Weeeeell....mmm many movies are based on books so...

FHB: NOOOOOO!!! It's SO annoying to read a book after a movie or the other way around! It's never good enough!

Katerina: No wait! Listen! If you don't know what you are interested in, a safe way to start reading is by reading something you know you liked in the past. Let's say you like Harry Potter movies, there you have the beginning to the world of reading. You start with those books. A book is always way better than a movie and there are always details and stories that are not included in the movies. That way is easier for someone to start, it's something he already knows and he is gonna enjoy. Otherwise you can always look at the back cover for the summary or look for book recommendations online and see if you like something.

FHB: What kind of books would you recommend for beginners?

Katerina: You know, teen novels and books would be a nice start. There are so many teen books which could easily be read by adults as well. I remember I read Alki Zei's 'African diary'. I read it once when I was 12- 13 years old and then I read it again when I was 17 and then I discovered its value. Both times I cried on the final chapter!

FHB: I know that you loooooove music and cinema as well. Could you be able to choose between those 3?

Katerina: Oh no...I love music as much as I love books and a great movie. I can't imagine myself in the absence of any of those. I get different emotions by each one of them.

FHB: Oh, do you listen to the music while reading?

Katerina: That depends...if the book demands me being 100% focuse don it then I need absolutely quietness (the drama is so real yeah) hahaha.

FHB: So when you do listen to the music while reading what would that be?

Katerina: You know I prefer songs that I don't know so I don't start singing along hahaha. That wouldn't work for reading at all, I would just end up singing hahaha. Another option would be orchestral music. NO LYRICS! But mainly I prefer silence so I am able to concentrate to what I read. When I am among people and noise then I would use my earphones listening to the music.

FHB: So you go outdoors to read? Where do you actually go to stay focused and enjoy reading?

Katerina: Well I need no distraction...I can read for hours when I'm home at Florina,where I live alone. I can't stay focused at my parents' house, too much things going on all the time. I also like the Cinema Museum library at the Port Area in Thessaloniki (Apothiki Α'), an amazing place for bookworms and students. And it has an amazing view of the Thermaikos Sea. In general I enjoy quiet cafes, Tom's in Tsimiski str. Thessaloniki...Oh on the train as well! I would also go outdoors to sit and read but only during early morning hours when there isn't lot of people and traffic and noise...

FHB: OOOH wait! you said the magic word! LIBRARY.....I know you love libraries, it is a thing for you I want you to tell me more about libraries and you hahaha.

Katerina: Hahaha! YES! I loooove libraries! You know what gets me excited is the fact that there are thousands of books, titles gathered in one place.What is in the libraries is the proof of how amazing the human mind is!

FHB: Do you want to live and work in a library??? Maybe someone reads and offers you a job hahaha You can hug and kiss books non stop that way !

Katerina: YES I DO! hahaha.

FHB: Ok so do you go and read in a library? Looking for books? Unfortunately less and less people would go to a library because everything is in google now...Obviously if you study you need to go to a library, but when we were kids you could actually go and read books, get them for free etc...

Katerina: Well I don't go just so I read...But I used to do that when I was a kid! My mom was working until late and I had to wait for her to finish so we go home together. There was a small library in Neapoli back then and I was spending a lot of time reading there. Unfortunately it kinda collapsed at some point.

FHB: Were there other children while you were there?

Katerina: Not really hahaha

FHB: Maybe that's why hahaha

Katerina: Yeah but there were mainly teachers searching for books, information etc.

FHB: You know what I haven't asked you yet and I'm curious to ask? Do you read everyday? How often do you read? Because you are young, you have friends, you go out...

Katerina: Nah, I'm not reading everyday...I'm not in reading mood all the time which I believe is normal. And even the hours I spend on a book depend on how much I like it. I finished those 700 pages of  'The club of incorrigible optimists' in 3 days but another book of 300 pages took me more than a week to finish...

FHB: Have you dodged your friends or meeting with people because of a book? You told us you skipped one day's classes for the Optimists' Club...

Katerina: Hahaha you know the answer that's why you ask! Yeeeeees sometimes I did prefer a book over a coffee with friends   It is like you watching your favorite TV Show, you need to see the last episode asap! If there are like 100 pages left I prefer to finish the book and go out to find my friends bit later.

FHB: What excuses do you use for that???

Katerina: Oh no excuses hahaha I just tell them I need to finish my book hahaha

FHB: They are familiar with the concept.

Katerina: Yes, totally.

FHB: So tell me about your friends? Do they like reading in general?

Katerina: I think in my friends' mind I am 'old school' or 'weirdo', or 'sopfisticated' just because I love books...But I don't think myself of that. Unfortunately not all of them responded or got interested in books. BUT I am excited that I 'dragged' three out of seven people that we hung out with, into the dark world of reading hahaha!

FHB: Oh do they say that to your face??

Katerina: Well yeah my close friends are pretty honest with me. Also they love teasing me and I don't mind! But I've heard weird stuff as well, like a friend was saying that I will end up an old single lady with books hahaha.

FHB: Hang on there, the 'old lady with plants' is the new 'old lady with cats'. Wait and at some point you'll be in fashion 'old lady with books' !

Katerina: Hahaha...But you know, the weird thing is when I read outdoors where there are always people looking at you with curiosity, kinda awkwardly. Once, I bought a book and few minutes later I entered the bud, and I was so anticipated to read the book that I sat down and started reading. And they were looking at me like I was doing drugs right in the middle of the bus hahahaha. Another weird reaction is when you disagree with someone and you express your opinion based on a book, and you actually say "I read it on the X  book" and they think you are showing off !

FHB: Hahaha so books help you backing up your opinion??? You don't say!

Katerina: Hahaha yes! Amazing?? But yes seriously, books help you expressing your thoughts and opinion better. You learn the right words, the right way to build your speech...And it's so great because you basically don't need to do any extra effort! While we are reading, we are repeating the text in our head, the actual words which are saved unconciously into your brain. The more you read the less effort you need to take to learn new words. Also it helps you with the spelling, again effortesly. Your brain through your eyes gets familiar to how the word is spelled so from now on you just know it! You get the right image of how an essay should appear, how to construct it...all that just by reading a lot making no extra effort to learn! It's crazy not to do so!

FHB: How do your friends react to 'Books and Moons' ?

Katerina: Oh, you know they were very supportive on the Instagram page. I messaged them asking to join the page, they did but they ALSO passed the link to their friends! So they helped so much, it was kinda easy for me to approach followers because of their support as well. Whenever they like a picture of mine they even repost it having my page tagged!

FHB: WOW!! You are so lucky! That IS very helpful! It's descent advertisement!

Katerina: Yes I know! I am lucky, I know. And  I have this friend of mine, who was arguing with me over a book, who helped me taking pictures of my books! I was using him as a hand-model holding me books hahaha. He helped a lot!

FHB: So have they read any of those books you upload on Instagram?

Katerina: Ah yes, this friend I just told you about! He never reads ( he is like reading one page and he is already tired) and he is also very intransigent, stubborn hahaha...He always thinks he is right! So I uploaded A. Schopenhauer's book 'The art of being right' and he said " I'm gonna read this one!". The book's main message is that someone can always be right even if he has the wrong opinion. And you know, the book suggests not to get angry or raise your voice while disagreeing or expressing your opinion. So guess what, now everytime we fight my friend looks at me and he is like "Why are you shouting? Maybe cause you are WRONG???" Hahahaha! The whole thing just back fired to me!

FHB: You know I'm gonna write this on the blog,right?

Katerina: Hahaha yes go on! I don't mind, I also tell him that straight to his face! Hahaha

FHB: But ok, you must be very happy that this friend of yours started reading because of your 'touch'.

Katerina: Oh I am! I wasn't expecting him to do so! And I also want to mention another story, when at some point I suggested these Fantasy books, on which a faaamous video game is based - Assassin's Creed. So one of my friends who actually played the game saw the books and started reading them as well.

FHB: WOW! So the whole thing is actually working! I mean your effort to create the Instagram page and present/suggest books to the followers has actually fulfilled its goal. If you go to somebody and just tell him "read this book" he probably won't even remember the title. But doing it the way you do, is actually very tempting!

Katerina: Yes it works...Sometimes I enjoy grabbing a book and going to Tom's so I have some coffee and read alone. So, I have this friend who actually tried the same thing and she discovered that she enjoys that a lot! Now she gets new books and goes there to read!

FHB: Do you discuss books with your friends?

Katerina: Well yeah it happens sometimes. It's like when you go to the movies and you talk about the film afterwards. But you know...not like deep conversations analysing everything hahaha. We are not a book club. No

FHB: Yes ok, it's not that easy to share all the essence and emotions or thoughts you got from a book. It needs time or gathering  just to do so, prepared with notes, thoughts etc. I get the sense that people don't like reading anymore. Do you agree on that?

Katerina: I refuse to accept that people don't read anymore! But yeah it seems that the numbers have dropped. But you know, I don't believe that reading is for everyone. And by saying that I don't imply it is just for  'smart' people. What I mean is that reading needs time, clarity of mind, and you have to love it...And yeah in the past people were more into books but there weren't so many ways of entertainment back then. Now we have PCs, TVs, cinema...If all those were invented earlier I believe a big number of people would prefer those to reading. Just like nowadays.

FHB: Yeah I think you are right...Do you think the parents are a significant factor whether their kids like books or not? I mean your mom induced you in a way.

Katerina: Look, I don't think it's easy to tempt kids to hold a book rather a tablet nowadays. It needs more effort to do so. The tablet shows you so many pictures, motion, noises, plus all that happen so fast. Of course it's easier for children to watch stories on a tablet and not reading stories themselves. But if the parents read I believe the kids are used to that image, to that habit and they won't be unfamiliar to books and to actually spending time reading. Maybe it won't appear like an extra effort to them...they will know how it happens...they will know that IT happens! hahaha...but I do have friends whose parents read but they don't like it. Also the opposite happens of course!

FHB: Tablet and Kindle and all those electronics that replace the old classic book. Thoughts? Because it's easier to just find an e-book and buy it at that instance rather walking to the bookstore or wait until it arrives to you.

Katerina: I love the procedure of going to the bookstore, touching and searching the books. I like changing the pages...

FHB: Is it easier to understand what you read when you read a book instead of using a tablet or phone etc?

Katerina: Definately. The screen itself gets your eyes and mind tired, way faster than reading a book's page. When you hold a book there are no incoming messages, no weird side highlighted texts, no screen- brightness...

FHB: Katerinaki, it was really great meeting you, talking to you about something that you love...Please give us your favorite line from a book and tell us which is your favorite song these days

Katerina: My favorite song for this period is the 'In my dreams' by 4 Non Blondes!

FHB: Thank you so much baby...See you in  'Books and Moons' waiting for the next book you have for us!

Katerina: Thank you! It was fun!

My dear hunbuns, I hope you enjoyed this post! For me it was so fun to talk to Katerina because I really like talking to people about what they love, their passion or hobby. You always get great positive vibes by that!

You can always follow Katerina's page on Instagram, and maybe meet her in person on the Book Club on wheels hahaha.

Leave a comment to this post and let us know what you think about books. Or moons! Astronauts and astronomers are always welcome

I cyber pat pat your head and leave. See you next time with a new friend of mine who is kind enough to talk to me!

Byyyyyyyyye!

Helloooooo Buns! Welcome!

This is NOT a post about The Collector, Marvel's fiction character.

This is a post about our friend and Best Man of our wedding, aka:'the Model', like some people said, (he looked THAT good!).

He is Stergios's oldest friend, and lately he paid a visit to us in Vienna...Austria...did you know that Austria is the Swarovski Brand's birthplace? More accurately the actual headquarters are in the city called 'Wattens'. If you are not familiar to Swarovski Crystals I will share few general information I found in wikipedia.

"...Daniel Swarovski was born in northern Bohemia (now the Czech Republic), 20 km from the current border with Poland. His father was a glass cutter and owned a small glass factory. In 1892 he patented an electric cutting machine that facilitated the production of crystal glass.In 1895, Swarovski, financier Armand Kosman, and Franz Weis founded the Swarovski company.The company established a crystal-cutting factory in Wattens, Tyrol (Austria), to take advantage of local hydroelectricity for the energy-intensive grinding processes Daniel Swarovski had patented. Swarovski's vision was to make "a diamond for everyone" by making crystals affordable..."

But why am I writing about Swarovski?

Swarovski has an AMAZING collection of jewelleries, watches, accessories and DECORATIONS. You can take a look here  what I'm talking about. They have themed detailed amazing decorative sculptures, famous figures, movie figures, Disney heroes, classic fairytale figures etc etc (the list is huge) all made of crystals!

And still I haven't answered your question. What's all about it? Well...their Beauty forces you to waaaant one...two...all of them! And that's how you become a COLLECTOR!

And now I will connect the two stories, The Swarovski and our Best Man, 'The Model'.

Our conversation started over a cup of coffee at Cafe Hawelka. We needed access to some caffeine after spending some serious time in the Swarovski shop in Vienna's centre.

At that point Stergios arrived  wondering why we record ourselves on camera instead of using the recorder on my phone (low battery), and why the camera is focused to the table next to us instead of our faces (we didn't feel like taking a video of us), then he ordered a cafe macchiato and a cheesecake -the amazing Cafe Hawelka's Buchteln weren't baked yet. After while the whole place was smelling sugar and buchteln and it was time for us to leave before we size up

My thoughts over collecting something you like are mixed.

Clearly you never know what will 'click' your mind and when you'll decide to start a Collection of items...Although me personally should firstly deal with my impatience and then maaaaybe I will be able to start a Collection of SOMETHING ...I don't know if everybody is capable or has the right mindset to stay focused on collecting...(hoarders is a whole different topic ). But, you know, I sure admire my friends who do that. I admire how commited they are and how they discovered a way to create joy for themselves. Oh and I envy their patience. Or any patience existing in this world I own non

And don't forget, happiness most of the times (if not always) is a state of mind and something you create for yourself!

And by saying that last important thing I cyber pat pat your head and leave. See you next time with a new friend of mine who is kind enough to talk to me!

P.S.: I'm not paying them, they are very COOL people!

Helloooooo buns! Welcome!

This was an intense week, but here I am with a new dress! (and more...)

Today we have the all-time classic, simple, boxy, Button-up Dress! This one is by Monki which I looooove!

This dress is available in so many different colors but for my Neon Yellow Pumps I wanted this pale lavender hue (in their campaign they even match it to neon nail enamel). I got this dress in size XL and let me tell you few things about it. I bought the exact same dress months ago in black and I wore it SO much! I am so happy about this dress cause mainly I could do so much layering with it.Cosy chunky knitwear, sleek pants, oversized sweatshirts.  And of course when I saw online this new color I thought "Oh that's my favorite dress, it should be the perfect match!"

So I bought it and here I am trying it. The thing is that is very common the same fabric to look different in different colors,and what I mean by that is this dress being kinda see-through, you definately need an undergarment to wear it in a sunny day. Also I feel that for my body type, XL is ok only when I layer it with another piece above. The fitting just wearing it solo was not ideal for me, I could happily size-up. But overall I love the length, the color, the material.

While trying to accessorize the outfit I went into UrbanOutfitters to find a specific yellow belt that I saw there few weeks ago (I should have bought it back then cause it was sold out by now but they still have it online) BUT I came across to this amazing pair of Heart-shaped Sunglasses and to be honest lately I was flirting a lot online with similar sunglasses. Soooo I thought "Heeeey let's try a different approach". I grabbed my new hearts and now I had to find one more piece to complete the outfit.

I was thinking of earrings or a huge piece of statement necklace and I went into BIKBOK. There I found my Glooooooorious Headband <3 <3 <3 Unfortunatelly I couldn't find it online for you but they had more of them at the store at MariahilferStrasse. This headband is maximal and has gems and the color was perfect for the outfit and I believe it styled the whole outfit together.

The coat I'm wearing I bought it a couple of years ago by H&M.

Backstage:

This week I also went to ZARA cause I saw online few new entries and I wanted to try them on.

I found this white dress in size XL but either I need XXL oooor I could stop eating for the next few months till the baptism

And I also found this skirt that I liked its color and I grabbed a lingerie top and a light fabric green hued shirt to pair it with. But nothing fitted so I'm showing you the pictures just for fun You can find them online here skirt, shirt .

Sooooo, this is pretty much what happened this week. I have already ordered my next dresses and hopefully they'll be here next week

I would appreciate your opinion and let me know what you think of the dresses so far!

Also if you've accidentally found a dress for me please let me know

You can follow me on Instagram at fun_hun_bun, join my page on Facebook FunHunBun, and you can always subscribe to my blog ang get small notification msgs everytime a new post is up!

Thank you for reading me and see you next week with a new dreeeeess!

Good vibes to you all!

Byyyyyyye!

Aaaaaand my bff in California gifted me THIS ! The amaaaazing unicorn "bucket" which I now drink water in and that's how I manage to drink 2.5 lts water per day , I recommend you to get a "bucket" ASAP!

Then I have these 3 cute unicorn dolls.The two similar ones, I got them from TK MAX during Christmas, they were supposed to be xmas tree decorations and the one on the front, the one with the attitude, came straight from US this Christmas as a gift to join our pack.
