Fashion Trends - Casual Pastel Pink!!!!

Another week is almost finished and it is time to decide for our weekend. Almost few days left for my vacations and even thought it is really hot here, I am still feeling really casual. 

Yesterday I had the chance to admire a sunset by the beach and the pastel colors of the horizon were simply amazing! I couldn't manage to take a photo of it, but I found a wonderful picture of my friend Steph just to get an idea....

Was it a dream????  photo by stephmel

Do you love hats?????

Hello my friends!!!!

One of my favorite accessories for Summer is definitely a hat! I used to wear them a lot just for fun and just to add a spark in my outfit, but the past years it became a necessary tip for Sun protection. And not only for the beach but for every time of the day. And for the night? it will be something unique in your appearance.

So, while I was searching for hats in Cityblis, I discovered (or should I say re-discovered?) the collection of Evgenia's Kim. Amazing hats, beautiful, a work of art, designed to be simple yet extravagant.

Hats and hair accessories for every occasion and style...white linen for the beach, camel toyo fedora with leopard-print raffia for your boho outfit, cotton cap with black and white stripes for your casual appearance, camel linen for your safari look and many more!

Many famous ladies of Hollywood just adore her creations...

why not us? Let's make a gift to ourselves and feel like a queen!

Jeans are also great to wear them on a night out. Passion red sandals and a beautiful bag will make it more eccentric.

DIY - Sea Stone Bracelet

Happy New Week!!!

Monday is here and a wonderful weekend just passed! I hope your weekend was amazing also!

A new tutorial is here, an idea about handmade bracelet with sea stone! I have already showed you how to create a ring with a Sea stone and now we are going to create a beautiful bracelet.

What will you need….

A sea stone ( I found one blue already from a tile)

One Wood Bead

Color for Ceramics

Paint brush

Scissor

Leather cord

Clear Tape

Dremel tool

How to create it…

First of all we have to create two holes in the stone. I used my dremel tool to do it!

Choose your color and put small pieces of Clear Tape in you rock in a way to create a beautiful geometric pattern. I wanted to create an asymmetrical line.

Paint your rock with your color of your taste between the tape.

Remove the tape and your pattern is ready! If you wish you can leave it for a while and then repeat the above steps with another color. In that way you will create a beautiful and colorful geometric pattern.

 I used only mustard yellow color and I painted the stone just in order to create a line and nothing more…very minimal!

Use the leather cord in your wholes and just make a knot on both sides.

Another knot at the end of the cord, while at the other side add the wooden bead and your bracelet is ready!

Use your imagination to create a beautiful jewel with more beads or colors or ribbons and cords. I just wanted to create for myself a minimal, bohemian bracelet, perfect for Summer and of course perfect for stacking it with other minimal bracelets!

Enjoy crafting!!!!

Just stay in touch with Ef Zin Creations blog for more tutorials… another one is coming for jewelry crafting! Happy new week!

Fashion Trends - Beach Fashion

Good Morning my friends!!!

 Friday is already here and soon it will be weekend…yeah! It is really hot here in Greece and tomorrow will be 1^stof June so officially Summer is here! The usual problem we have to face with is how ready we are for summer period! And here comes the panic! We have just realised that we have gained a few pounds, gotten out of shape, maybe lost our summer tan. And so what? Keep calm and enjoy the best season of the year with less stress and better mood!

In the warmer, longer, lazier days of summer, the living may not be easy, but your life probably feels less chaotic. Even adults tend to adopt a "school's out!" attitude in summer. And this is what I am suggesting today! Plan your first weekend break by the sea and relax!  Do not think about do’s and don’ts yet!

 I do not know if this also happened to you, but sometimes on my vacation I was enjoying the sea so much that I didn’t go to the house to change clothes and then go to the beach party with my friends. Most of the times I was lucky enough to wear clothes that were perfect matched for such an occasion and of course I could even wear them going out for a drink… without the salt from the sea of course (hahaha).

 A wonderful minimal shirt with a beautiful short pants in summer colors. Combine them with a small handbag in the same colors and simple, adorable accessories in the same shades and you will “rock”. Floral ballerina shoes are always in fashion, trendy and of course comfortable!

1.Shirt/pants 2.Earrings 3.Shoes 4.Handbag

Open your wardrobe and grab your favorite pieces from last years. The trends, the latest fashions may only add a few jazzy colors, few logos and few statements. The trends change, but the base always remain, so do not worry if you haven’t the time yet for upgrading your wardrobe.

Use your creativity to mix up things to get what you want. Use natural tones for a secure result

1.Sandals 2.Beach Bag 3.Beach Towel

or just search for nautical pieces, which are always on trend.

1.Swimmsuit 2.Beach Bag 3.Hat 4.SunGlasses 4.Ring

Just do not forget to always have with you SunGlasses, big towels and of course sun screen lotion!  Stay tuned with Efzin for more summer trend reports and great tips for this summer!

Enjoy your weekend!

Fashion Trends - Color Blocking

Hello my friends!

How was your week? Friday today and I hope you will have a wonderful Friday Night exodus and a great Saturday one. 

For this week's post I have a great help (actually the whole text is written by her) from my friend Vasso from PinezaJewelry. Well...actually this Color blocking is something that Vasso knows very well... I don't! hahaha

So lets start....

One of the most popular fashion trends in last years is color blocking. Color blocking trend is everywhere now, from red carpet events and fashion editorials to the street style and our favorite stores.

Choose the right color combinations and get the maximum effect. Be self-confident and never feel afraid to show off your style imagination and mood. However, do not overdo it, as I use to recommend almost in every trend report.

1.JoozieCotton 2.AliquidTextileJewels 3.FloraBeauty 4.goodrun

Moreover, although it seems to be easy combining different colors in our outfits, we have to keep in mind some tips:

1. Most of my reads about color blocking suggest us to follow the rule of the “color wheel”.

2. Use solid colours. You’re already bold with color blocking. Hoewever, if you like to add a pattern while colorblocking, try to keep this to the minimum.

1.Duck Earrings 2.Bracelet 3.Scarf

3. Try to play within the range of three colors in one outfit . The fourth one will look  too much.!

4. Be aware of tone! neons go well with neons, while pastels with pastel hues.

1.Dangle Earrings 2.Bracelet 3.Post Earrings 4.Bag 4.Garland

5. Accessorize... You do not want to wear clothing which is too bright? Wear just one or two accessories in colors that are striking.

6. Incorporate neutrals. Wear the classic white t-shirt with bold pants or a skirt  and a contrasting blazer!

Create amazing combinations and have a memorable weekend! Just do not forget our Giveaway! Finally  for more Friday night Outfit suggestions, just visit Estella's blog!
