Days in the city

The past days have been rather quiet and predictable, but not dull at all! I enjoy this season the most; everything feels very refreshing and new. Despite the fact that the weather seems to be regressing (after 18 degrees, we went back to 5!!), I crave for some time by the sea reading a book, without being annoyed by rather talkative people!

 So, long story short, I finished reading Lolita (marvellous book!), I went to the University and after that I met with my best friend for a coffee and ate that delicious chocolate muffin, and later on we discovered a very well hidden underground bookshop!! I also finished cross-stitching the small rose and I'll send it this week to my grand-mother!

 













During those days I wore my brand new braided headband made by my mom! You can also see it at this post at the Petit Tricot blog!



What did you do lately?! :)

 Have fun!

Petit Tricot Giveaway! [Closed]

From the very moment I saw this mint headband by Petit Tricot, I fell in love with it! I was lucky enough to see it while being created! Decorated with a cream bow on top, it's adorable and warm enough for the cold days to come!

Petit Tricot is a small effort, my mom and I started, to make handmade knitted items (from gloves to socks, and ornaments to jumpers) widely known and maybe challenge people to start creating their own knitted things! The brain of this whole thing is my mom, who is the creator of all these beauties! As for me, I still got a long way ahead of me to perfect my skills, but I am enriching our collections with tiny crocheted or cross stitched items!!

To enter the giveaway:

You must be a follower of my blog or tumblr and like the Petit Tricot facebook page. After that, leave me a comment with your e-mail and you're in! If you want an extra chance to win, reblog on tumblr or share via Facebook or Twitter and then leave me a comment telling me you did so!

 The giveaway is closing on Thursday, the 6th December!

 Good luck, everyone!

Sunny Christmas mood!

As we all know, it's Christmas in two weeks!And, since yesterday, I cannot wait!It might be so, because I had a really nice day with friends and family, I did some major investments, aka christmas presents for the above mentioned, plus the lights are on, and I'm waiting for my best friend to be back and have a christmas movie marathon together and take some photos in the city, up in the carousels or trying to ice skate!Also, I'm planning a fondue and patisserie-tasting evening at my place with special guests!!



Above you can see on tiny little investment I did yesterday, with the fellow blogger Lorelai , while I'm wearing my brand new shoes I got from Golden Ponies!What do you think?

Meanwhile, there's a new knitting blog out!Remember that?It's on and poppin'!! :)

If you are from Greece, you most probably know that Christmas doesn't always mean snow!The ''most Christmas'' I could capture so far, was this..





Also, if you are from Thessaloniki, on Saturday the 17th of December there will be a vintage bazaar at iHeart cafe (Rotonda Square), where I most enjoy drinking my caramel macchiato with my best friend!!
