The new year’s eve tux

My ideal outfit for a Christmas party consists of a fine tuxedo suit -with cropped pants, if possible- and a silk white shirt. Statement shoes are more than necessary. Τhis is my selection from a small place of wonders called Eponymo store at Mcarthurglen Athens. The well hidden romantic part of mine would go for the black delicate dress. As you well guessed a masculine tux and an ethereal silk frock are both parts of my split personality.

White silk shirt and black tuxedo suit jacket Alberta Ferretti. Black pants Paolo Petrone. Black chiffon dress Alberta Ferretti. Black peep toes Blumarine. Patent leather booties John Galliano. 

Extra info for mommies, aunts and godmothers: Mcarthurglen runs a Creative Workshop for children until the 31st of December -all in all a good chance to combine your Christmas shopping with children activity.

Wish list

A walk at McArthurGlen Athens is never disappointing. I came across Carlo Pazolini shop where I found dozens of ultra elegant brogues and masculine mid-heel shoes that looked great with a Pierre Balmain double breasted jacket I saw later at Alberta Ferretti. Note to reader: At Alberta Ferretti you can also find incredible stuff of other fashion houses such as Dsquared2, John Galliano, Red Valentino and more. I’m making my Christmas wish list and shoes has always been my starting point. Now I can delightfully add a Dsquared2 gown and that gorgeous Pierre Balmain jacket.

If you’re planning to pay a visit at McArthurGlen keep in mind the big celebration on Friday November 15th, when the Christmas tree will be lit!

Oh so vintage

After its huge success last year, A.N.G.E.L.O vintage returned at Mcarthurglen Athens, with new vintage jewels that need to find a new home. If you ask me, I’d suggest to invest either on a great bag, which you can find in really good prices, or a nice coat – I think that the coats of A.N.G.E.L.O’s collection are pretty amazing, just take a look at the green leather patchwork below and the blue velvet cape. The Vintage Festival starts today, until the 3rd of November. The sooner you visit, the more you’ll get to discover.

The art of Denim

I wanted to get a denim pencil skirt this season so bad, only for one reason: to wear it with a classic men’s shirt. Boxy, slouchy, in light blue, open in front, perfect. During the #ArtOfDenim event at McArthurGlen I went straight ahead at Oxford Company and requested for a medium sized men’s shirt -didn’t even had to try it on. I paired it with a Replay pencil skirt with a flared detail on the back and a gold horn necklace with orange jade from Li-La-Lo. And voila!

At the Vintage Festival

Last night at the private view of the famous A.N.G.E.L.O collection (which, as I mentioned before, opened its doors to public today), I fed my eyes and vintage hunger with the most beautiful looks of previous decades. Apart from the designer pieces, such as Celine, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Pucci, Chanel and Valentino just to mention a few, you can also find vintage treasures that don’t carry a precious signature, all in extremely good prices (trust me, I checked). A ride up to McArthurGlen Designer Outlet deserves to be ranked high into your next month’s t0-do list.
