A little spring haul

Although the weather today was not very spring-y, I felt the urge to do a little spring shopping. So, I arrived at Ermou street without a plan, I decided to get anything that caught my attention (within my budget of course).

It seems though that the cloudy sky had also clouded my excitement because I didn't find anything that interesting, until I reached the H&M store.

H&M stores for me are sometimes a hit and sometimes a miss but this time it was totally a hit since I found these little treasures:

A pair of tan everyday summer shoes, the kind I knew I would need but was afraid to search for because of the insane price tags. At H&M the price is €34,95 and my wallet was never happier! I also love the fact that they are really lightweight.


Speaking of insane price tags, a few streets ahead, at the Nine West store, I found a white plastic patent cork platform of the simplest kind (and rather low quality)) for €99 (doing doing doing). I wouldn't mind paying the price if it was a well crafted, real shoe, but for cork and plastic I can look at other shops, with a very lower price (€20? €30?).

At H&M I also found:

- a simple watermelon tee, at €9,95 I just couldn't resist! The flared neck line also is a great feature, it gives a little extra oomph!
- a too cute ivory long scarf, part fabric part lace, €7,95
- last but not least a pink bracelet, €3,95


When I returned home, I remembered that I had a lipstick, purchased a long time ago, burried in some drawer, that would be perfect for spring/summer. And guess what? I found it and it is gorgeous!


The color is coral with a little pink and fine gold shimmer but it is quite sheer, I think it will be perfect! The weird thing is that I cannot understand why I ignored it for sooo long, but nevertheless I'm glad that I remembered it!

For reference, it is #92, Monte Carlo.

What spring color excites you the most?

    1. I think it is a very easy to wear shoe, it will match with a lot of different styles and the price is unbeatable!

    2. Are they comfortable as well?

    3. To me, yes, but comfort as a lot of other things is totally subjective! :-)

  2. Ahhhh Chanel!!! I had a quick look at the Rouge Coco Shine lipsticks the other day- you know what, everyone from foreign beauty blogs raved about Boy, but I saw Evasion had 2 (!) testers all used up- evidence that Evasion is more popular in Greece, maybe?

  6. I like the shoes. Last Summer I wore only flat shoes because I was pregnant so now I can't wait to wear this type of shoes.
