me & myself through Filep’s lens ♡
Last night at Mara Desypri’s exhibition:
Bettina continues the celebrational collaborations for its 50 years anniversary, joining forces with greek designer duo -and one of my personal favourite- DeuxHommes, who created for this matter a capsule collection inspired by iconinc pieces of their career. Available from this Saturday at Bettina shop – and they’re all one-off so don’t think twice.
10% work and 90% pleasure: on location for a special photoshoot and a highly exciting project of my sweetheart Filep

I shared this two years ago on World Poetry day -today i’m all about the following:
H πόλις
Είπες· «Θα πάγω σ’ άλλη γή, θα πάγω σ’ άλλη θάλασσα,
Μια πόλις άλλη θα βρεθεί καλλίτερη από αυτή.
Κάθε προσπάθεια μου μια καταδίκη είναι γραφτή·
κ’ είν’ η καρδιά μου – σαν νεκρός –θαμένη.
Ο νους μου ως πότε μες στον μαρασμό αυτόν θα μένει.
Όπου το μάτι μου γυρίσω, όπου κι αν δω
ερείπια μαύρα της ζωής μου βλέπω εδώ,
που τόσα χρόνια πέρασα και ρήμαξα και χάλασα».
.
Καινούριους τόπους δεν θα βρεις, δεν θα’ βρεις άλλες θάλασσες.
Η πόλις θα σε ακολουθεί. Στους δρόμους θα γυρνάς
τους ίδιους. Και στες γειτονιές τες ίδιες θα γερνάς·
και μες στα ίδια σπίτια αυτά θ’ ασπρίζεις.
Πάντα στην πόλι αυτή θα φθάνεις. Για τα αλλού – μη ελπίζεις -
δεν έχει πλοίο για σε, δεν έχει οδό.
Ετσι που τη ζωή σου ρήμαξες εδώ
στην κώχη τούτη την μικρή, σ’ όλην την γή την χάλασες.
Κωνσταντίνος Π. Καβάφης (1910)

Photographer Mara Desypris presents “Random”, her first retrospective exhibition, in collaboration with Ozon Raw and curated by Filep Motwary, with photos chosen from her book “Self-portrait”. All photos are retouch-free and taken with analogue camera, which i can confirm, since the picture above was taken during a warm spring sunset, in the early years of my working at Vogue back in 200idontremember, with fashion editor Michael Pandos.

Christophe Lemaire’s foray on thecorner.com is crowned by the “Radical Simplicity” capsule collection for men and women, which consists of six essential, convertible and modular garments in black and white, conceived to be mixed-and-matched in countless combinations: two spring summer 2012 shapes in exclusive fabrics as well as four signature pieces in cotton crepe, as light as a breeze.
“A well-proportioned garment, in the right fabric, with the right cut and not too ‘fashion’ doesn’t need to be redesigned every season, but the puzzle around it should simply be reinvented to make it more exciting: it is a question of common sense and I have a feeling that we are finally getting back to it” says Christophe Lemaire.
how pretty is the new Miu Miu boutique at Crocus City Mall in Moscow?
From the current exhibition “Greek Mysteries” at Eleni Marneri Gallery- until the 30th of April- showcasing the most exquisit wedding garments and accessories, both for men and women.

More than a woman was the name of the latest project of Shop 112A and Ozon Raw and as i said here, i participated together with seven more bloggers, to the exhibition with a photo of my inspirational woman for 2012, who is no other but Ms. Eleni Psichouli, the multi-talented and creative chef next door, that i also admire for her warmth, optimism and big heart.
Eleni came over Shop the other day to see her portrait, together with some of my closest people
