Chapter 2 - Week 3, Day 5


Here I am, posing with my shadow. I am wearing an H&M cropped top (a gift from you), my vintage 80s trousers, a Comme des Garcons PVC patchwork jacket and my Jordan basketball trainers (a gift from you).

Chapter 2 - Week 3, Day 4


Today I am wearing this vintage cycler's jersey you gave me (and that I absolutely adore) with a Comme Des Garcons polka-dot skirt (that I also adore) and a pair of high-heeled low-cut sneakers / booties by Michel Perry. Actually, I think that this outfit perfectly reflects my definition of "sporty chic".

Chapter 2 - Week 3, Day 3


The weather is a bit chilly today, so I put on my vintage grey sweater mini dress, my Fullah Sugah black brocade blazer, my Balenciaga strappy sandals and (last, but not least) my brand new blonde. xx

Chapter 2 - Week 3, Day 2


Total denim look, with a little bit of chain, chain, chaiiiin (remember the Chain Song?): Levi's shirt, D&G vintage skinny jeans, a pair of obscure denim peep-toe booties and my Marc Jacobs Stam bag (I will never stop loving this bag).

Chapter 2 - Week 3, Day 1


Today you woke up while I was getting dressed, thus ruining my planned outfit. When you went back to bed, I changed to my Old Navy denim dungarees, my Helmut Lang grey t-shirt with the asymmetric sleeves, my Salvatore Ferragamo grey galuchat/ black suede / perspex heeled sandals, and a blazer I absolutely adore by Maison Martin Margiela - I would call it "normcore with a twist". What do you think?

Chapter 2 - Week 2, Day 5


Time to battle boredom today, love. So I wore my military camo-print bermudas with a Fullah Sugah sweatshirt and my Christian Louboutin lilac sequined ballerinas. I will miss you so much today.

Chapter 2 - Week 2, Day 4


After failing to impress you yesterday (I blame the shoes), today I just gave up and picked something really simple - an Asos denim-lace dress, my Fullah Sugah black brocade jacket (which has turned out to be perfect for the weather these days) and the Nike Jordan trainers.

Chapter 2 - Week 2, Day 3


Today I got in a sporty-chic mood (it's so strange that, every time, when you write about trends and things like that you are the first one to fall for the story) and I combined my beloved Lila Nova for Underground white bralet with an ancient black pleated skirt, a Fullah Sugah black brocade blazer and those weird silver Marc Jacobs "ugly sneakers-kickers". What do you think?

Chapter 2 - Week 2, Day 2


Good morning, love. Today we managed to get the post ready relatively early, so that you see it when you wake up (Maria Athanasiadou, <3). I am wearing my beloved Comme des Garcons vest that combines a sequined floral motif with a Prince-de-Galles pattern on its voluminous collar, over an ancient second-hand lavender tube top I got too long ago from a flea market that does not exist anymore, and of course my trusty grey Underground culottes and my adidas Originals by Missy Elliott tennis sneakers / oxfords. I hope you have a lovely day.

Chapter 2 - Week 2, Day 1


At some point during the day, we were on the same street, at the same time, going on different directions. This is what I was wearing (ironically enough, photographed against the mirror on your closet door): Pink shantung silk Chloe top, white / neon H&M bermuda shorts, Adidas trainers (a gift from you). Have a great day at work -<3-

Chapter 2 Week 1, Day 5


A delayed post: The t-shirt you made for me, the shoes you gave me. Great to have you back.

Penelope II: Katerina Gkouma


Katerina is in Mykonos, Manos is in Athens, but today the tide has turned. So this is Katerina, posting as Penelope II: "Good morning darlings !!! Today I am soooo happy my man is back in the island and so I am wearing my favorite Underground black open-back dress that I designed in 2012 and I am still in love with !!! Kisses"

Chapter 2 - Week 1, Day 4


You were sleeping like a baby when I left this morning, so here is the update: My favorite Suite 9 blue kaftan that we picked up together, ready for fall with my beloved magenta Christian Louboutin Simple pumps, my sweet mum's sweet-water pearls and her pearl studs (my latest obsession). Still luv you, still miss you

Week 13, Day 5


I was very pissed off since yesterday because all those articles and posts about "what you should and should not wear after 40" keep popping up. So I wanted to wear something really young, my 40-year old way. My outfit combines a Best Mountain denim vest, a Lila Nova for Underground skirt, a pair of Adidas Originals by Missy Elliott oxfords / sneakers (with skinny black laces borrowed from another pair of oxfords), my mommy's pearl studs and a Chanel earring. Do you like your 40-year-old-girl?

Week 13, Day 4


Last time I'm wearing the Adidas sliders this year, I promise! And just to add a little pizazz to their comfort, I remembered this almost ancient strapless striped stretch dress I got at the Underground boutique in Kolonaki many, many summers ago - plus my mommy's pearl ear studs.

Week 13, Day 2


Today I'm wearing an Asos pseudo-flapper dress combining linen and satin, an Accessorize star-studded necklace, my mommy's pearl stud earrings and of course my beloved Balenciaga strappy sandals. And I was so pissed at you that we had to reshoot (Maria Athanasiadou, thanxxx and sorryyy). Of course, as you can imagine, by the time I finished editing the photos and preparing the text, I was not pissed at you anymore -<3-

Week 13, Day 1


You know, my love, that I had a very stressful weekend, both emotionally and physically. So this morning while getting ready I reached for something easy, relaxed and beautiful - in other words, the fluid softness of my bronze Suite 9 jumpsuit, the gold Ipanema jelly gladiators (I know you love these shoes, and they are soooo comfortable) and, just for the fun of it, a necklace I love to wear mostly in the summer, by sculptor / designer Paula Lakah. And now that the weather is a bit cooler, I returned to a favorite springtime make-up habit, white eyeliner, combined with the juicy beauty of my loved MAC Lady Danger red / orange lipstick (Maria Athanasiadou <3)
