My "flea market" compilation;)

I guess I'm a vintage/retro lover.

And not only in terms of fashion.I do really need to turn back to "old school" days time by time.
It makes me feel better and see life in warmer tones.

I'll try (don't promise though) to post here as often as possible my vintage/retro escapes and suggestions in different aspects.

Here we go:

1.Fashion : Lace it's one of the cutest things that have even been created i think.It reminds me of grandma all the time.Get yourself a cute dress,shirt from the flea market or if you're lucky enough to find s.t from your grandma's or mom's coffer,grab it immediately:)
Here's an example:

2.Food - Sugar Canes.Don't you miss them? I do:) Especially the apple sugar canes.Have one today and feel yourself like a kid again:)

3.Play- Do you remember the game "state-city-film etc" we used to play a lot when we were kids?I love this game , i find it one of the best games and one of the most informative ones as well.I still enjoy playing it.

4.Music - Billie Holiday (Dream a little dream of me)

5.Film - Wild Strawberries a.k.a Smultronstället (Ingmar Bergman ,1957) .Black& White
Nominee of Oscars 1959

Is a great film about human behaviour and attitude , regrets and loneliness, past and present,reality and dream; perfectly shown through lyrical scenes.The main actor Victor Sjöström ,steals the play with his stunning and unfortunately last screen performace.A must see!


This is this weeks compilation.Hope you'll enjoy.To be continued...

Tips for geting you out of boredom...

We've just passed the winter period.In fact we didn't have winter at all this year , but anyway for me it's winter all of the time the days are short.
So I felt really released and happier on 25th of March , the day the clock was changed.
In fact this has its own risks , you may disperse thinking all the time that you've got plenty of time since the days are longer!
Anyway , what I like more of this part of the year is that , is the time that makes me do some life refreshments and changes.
Now , don't think of any big issue, just some changes:)
I realised recently my life has been a bit dull and boring, I have been boring myself.Is it because of the season that we change and become like mushrooms?Yeah mushrooms , such dormant and inactive just like them..
But the new coming spring atmosphere has ignited my socialized and creative part and I'm irradiating it everywhere:)
I've got plenty of it so I'd like to share:)

1.Get some pure fresh air.Have some long walks. (p.s: I didn't do this for a long time eventhough I have a park 5' away from my house.Shame on me , I know , but for a long time , I wasn't feeling like doing anything).
2.Have a traditional picnic , if possible in the forrest(not brunch, brunch is better in cold weather).And if you want to enjoy it really , prepare everything at home (crepes, veggies,fruits, will make your picnic look more nostalgic and smell really like"family").Don't you all miss the picnics we had with our families?All what I think while remembering those sweet memories is Pink Floyd's song "high hopes" (the grass was greener....etc)..
3.Changhe or refresh your wardrobe.Get some fresh , casual , trendy clothes , for they will make you feel much better and will also force you to lose those extra pounds or extra belly layers:) I did it and I felt great..It was a long time I wanted to do a change , but each time I postponed it.I admit I'm very annoyable at shopping, not because I don't like it , but because I get bored to search a lot 'bout what I'd like to buy.I hate to be for a long time in a typical-girlish- garment- bickering- mess.So almost each time I buy the dress that I love at first sight.When I see it I must think "this must be mine"..I was lucky this time , I found some cutties (look at the green dress in the photo).
4.Start a new course.Now's the best time to do this , as you've got the top energy and the freshest brain.You could meet some cool people too.I find the courses really amusing.
5.Some mental and physichal detox would be great:)

Have a great spring time guys!
