New In

While trying not to cry over my UK trip being postponed, I thought 'to hell with saving' and did a little shopping. I know I said I would wait until November but I seriously had nothing to wear every day at uni. I mean, I looove all black outfits and I do have so many black items that I could mix and match, but I felt I was inside a loop. So I got (literally) out of my house and into the stores -yeah, I live that close to the market, I am THAT strong not to shop everyday *coughs*.

First Intimissimi. For those who live under some rock, it's an Italian lingerie brand with reasonable prices and very sexy pieces (in a classy way, not like MED oh god). I got a super push up bra, my first actually! I decided to go black, for a safer option. It's amazing! I also have the standard model in this cut and I have been wearing it non stop for almost two years.
Unlike bras, I like to update my underwear regularly. I mean I have some 'favourites', but I always try to replace some old/worn/unfitted ones. So I got three brazilian cut knickers using the 3 for less code. For the very nose-y ones, I got the colours 'blue express', 'amaranto' and 'nero'.

Then I went to the drug store, where my favourite Greek cosmetic products can be found. KORRES. I got the ultimate nourishing lipstick in 'natural pink' for healthy-looking lips (cause mine aren't) and a nail polish, which I have already put on and it's amazing. I am so thankful for Korres products, really. (pictures from the web)



Moving on, it's clothing time. While I didn't buy much, I did try on many things. The weather is still so freaking hot, so that prevented me from getting that amazing coat or new boots or (another) knitted cardigan. I got two shirts from Stradivarius, which I am not that thrilled about, but they will save me from running late in the morning with nothing to wear. One is striped with leather-looking sleeves, for a slouchy look and the other one is floral kinda-cropped top. Sadly, the gorgeous black/grey stripped cardigan I got from Zara is nowhere to be found on their website, so sorry about that. And last but not least, the dress. As seen on countless blogs, that just had to be mine. I mean a black, minimal, with lace detail and baggy kind of look dress? It was destiny. (picture from Zara.com)


What do you think of my purchases and what was your favourite? Also, what have you been shopping lately?? I wanna know!

  1. I love Korres! I'm jealous that you can just pick it up at the pharmacy!

    You also picked smart pieces... I'm waiting to do some fall shopping when my new job starts.

    How's school/your research going?

  2. Awe you're so lucky you got to do shopping. It's getting quite chilly here, so I desperately want to go fall shopping. You did a wonderful job.

  4. Picturing that dress with the white panties underneath. A pretty secret about to be revealed.
