  Habits and changes. 

   This place has become sort of established here in Red Rose Cheeks. Two years ago, summer 2012, we photographed for the first time here, then summer 2013 followed and now, here we are, summer of 2014. This makes me think that this blog is already 4 years old. This year, though, hasn't been as productive as I'd want it to be, blog-wise. One thing I know for sure is that I always try to post quality articles, regarding the outfit, the photography, the place that we do our photoshoots, the text. Quality over quantity -always. I am still in the process of thinking about what it is I want for this blog, and I believe that what I need is a change. To make some changes here. Well, time will show.

   For now, it's the 2nd of August, the month of vacation and I am packing my suitcase 'cause I am leaving today, yay! So, I believe I can pospone these thoughts a liiiiittle longer and be back refreshed, with new material!

  I hope you are having a great summer, full of laughter, ice creams, late nights, salt on your hair and of course, love. Ahh, love.

How to wear a crop top, three.

   Here is the last out of three ways of how to wear the fabulous crop top by Fab-e by Efstathia and the most 'theatrical' one. I personaly loved this style, as well as the photos. Can't wait to hear your comments on it!
   To see the other two photoshoots, go here and here.

Ariel.

   ...aka the Little Mermaid. Now, you are probably wondering what does Ariel have to do with a not-so-much-of a-sea-setting. Well, the answer would be "nothing", except for the fact that one of my 7 year old students back at our school days well-observed that "with this red hair and these colourful clothes you look like Ariel- the little mermaid"! Wow! It is amazing what a child's imagination can create out of nowhere!

   Once again, my hair is braided! Well, you will not see me wearing this hairstyle again any time soon, as I am leaving today for Chios to visit a special friend and, under normal circumstances, I won't be posting for several days. Have a great weekend and see you soon!

   ...Well, thinking about happy moments like the one described above, is vital during these hard times.

Pin-Up.

  I think this journal was made for me. Pin-up girl and Coca-Cola on the cover? Totally addicted to the second, totally allured by the 50's pin-up thing. This is why I instantly fell in love with this corset. The white and red plaid with the broderie detail seem so innocent together.
