I know a good high-waisted bikini when I see one. Maritimum Swimwear is one of those brands that you can fall for at first sight -it’s the quality, the focus on detail, the lining, the cut, it’s everything. It has been a while since I last felt that confident in a swimsuit, especially after I gave birth and I meant every single word I just said.
That’s the Rose embroidered bikini in blue that you see here by Maritimum, paired with Meuf pleated culottes, Blanc leather visor and Pedro Garcia satin slides.

Α little drama never hurt anyone. Wearing a chiffon maxi beach dress by Glorious Beach Living.
Khaki bikini and velvet slippers by H&M.
It’s the first long weekend of summer and I’m getting ready for my first beach getaway.
Here are my top resort wear and beauty picks for June:
Bikini top and bottom in rust red by H&M and cotton wrap dress by Glorious Beach Living.
Suede metallic sandals Toms x & Other Stories.
Ippolito straw and leather bag.
Inside my admittedly super cute tote there’s the Red Grape Sunscreen and After Sun lotion by Korres and the shimmering version of the famous Nuxe multi-purpose Dry Oil, that nourishes and illuminates face,
body and hair in one go.
Lats minute holidays shopping oughts to be uplifting and cheerful as it gets.
Coral bikini and flower earrings H&M. Monoi oil by Hei Poa, an ever favourite exotic joy booster.
*shalala*
High waisted bikini Pink Sands, designed by Stefania Frangista whose work I’ve shown to you several times in the past. The best UV Protective products of Shiseido, a classic luxury choice that never fails to amaze me with its excellent quality. And the always favourite Hei Poa goodies, the body oil with Monoi extract and the exfoliating douche scrub. Digital print pouch from morning till evening by Thalatta Concept.
Wet Force Aging protection Face Cream, UV Protective Compact Foundation -a best seller-
and UV Protective Liquid Foundation.
Stefania Frangista, the young girl that used to make pink hued teen bikinis grew up and matured through her designs and experience, and is here to present for Summer 2015 her most feminine work by now:
an elegant collection inspired by the island of Hydra in a charming color palette.
Here are my personal picks.
The collections of Stefania Frangista, the talented pretty girl behind Pink Sands, are getting better and better every season.
As she consistently declares, her bathing suits and beachwear are produced in Greece, while her fabrics are brought from Spain and are of great quality. To her lovely swimsuits and summer dresses, Stefania has added easy-breezy long skirts, caftans, some lovely pareo-scarfs and golden platted jewels by Mara Kartali, of those you want to own.

Older and new, those were my allies for the previous weekend by the seaside: The Detailors limited edition bikini, my Beirut type caftan, a clutch from Asos, the genious Charouhi-sea urchin beach bag of Katie Poutous made by organic cotton and the Te.Pareo pareos for my clan.
