walking the river side

Spring in England, finally.. The weather is so nice that we spent nearlyt the whole day by the river. It was also great to enjoy our take away lunch outside..
You know that I'm a huge fan of accessories. I love buying different rings and earrings. These vintage looking heart shaped earrings are the best favorite purchases of the day..
Another comfortable outfit because I'm on holiday..
See you,

Sonunda bahar geldi. Bu güzel günü bütün güz gezip alışveriş yaparak geçirmek yazık olurdu. Biz de nehir kıyısında piknik yapıp, güneşin tadını çıkarmayı seçtik.:)
Aksesuarları çok sevdiğimi biliyorsunuz. Yeni aldığım yüzük ve küpeleri en yakın zamanda sizinle paylaşacağım. Kulağımdaki vintage tarzı kalp küpeleri de bugün aldım. Beğendiniz mi?
Bavulumu hazırlarken rahat kıyafetler seçmeye özen gösterdim. Ne de olsa tatildeyim:))
Sevgiler,

another day in Bath..


This is a beautiful small city that keeps you busy with its nice view of  hills and downs, fantastic restaurants and bars, nice designer boutiques, canal and riverside walks..The last time when I was here I visited  all the museums, the Roman baths and of course the Stonehenge.
This time I almost spent all the time touring the city and shopping.Its been nearly a week and I still can not get enough of the city. The day starts with a big breakfast. After touring the stores its time to get a quick lunch. In the end of the day Yesim, Barıs, Ates and me enjoy the dinner together..It is really a holiday to me. What about you? What is holiday for you??

first day in Bath


First day in Bath..Last time when I was in England, it was extremely cold so I could not enjoy hanging around in Bath and London. This time we are luckier that the weather was like spring on saturday. We walked through the Southgate Center and Royal Crescent. There we played with Hektor and enjoyed the sun in the beautiful garden of Royal Crecsent.
After a quick lunch, I was longing for shopping. Topshop, River Island were some of the British brands that we do not have in Turkey but I like so much. Of course I did not miss to visit my favorites stores like H&M and Accessorize either. The stores are closed around 6pm so there was not much time to visit all of them. I'm planning a second shopping tour for this week and I will definitely show you my purchases soon.

Bath'da ilk günüm. İngiltere'ye bir önceki gelişimde hava inanılmaz soğuktu bu yüzden zamanımızın çoğunu kapalı yerlerde geçirmek zorunda kalmıştık. Bu sefer çok daha şanslıyız çünkü cumartesi tam bir ilkbahar günüydü.
Southgate Center'dan Royal Crecsent'a yürüdükten sonra, Hektor'la Royal Crecsent'ın muhteşem bahçesinde bol bol oynadık.
Öğleden sonra birşeyler atıştırıp mağazaları gezmeye başladım. Türkiye'de bir zamanlar olup sonrasında kapanan Topshop ve River Island'ı hep çok sevmişimdir. İlk durağım ikisi oldu. Oradan da Accessorize ve H&M gibi her zaman keyifle gezdiğim mağazalara gittim. Bu çabuk alışveriş turunda aldıklarımı en yakın zamanda göstereceğim.

arrival to UK :)


After a 4,5 hour flight from Ankara to London, Stansted, 1,5 hours bus travel from Stansted to Heathrow and again 3 hours bus travel from Heathrow to Bath.. Here we finally arrived ..
I will try to update you as much as possible during our 9 days stay UK.

Ankara'dan Londra'ya 4,5 saat uçtuktan sonra, Stansted havaalanından Heathrow'a 1,5 saatlik otobüs yolculuğu ve Heathrow'dan Bath'a yine 3 saatlik bir otobüs yolculuğu..Sonunda geldik.
Burada geçireceğimiz 9 gün boyunca sizleri elimden geldiğince haberdar edeceğim.
Sevgiler,

Swarovski event in the boutique

Last friday we had the spring/summer collection presentation in the boutique. Valued customers were invited for this exclusive event. After the presentation of the new collection jewellery with a runway show the guests were invited to enjoy delicious canepes, macarons with wine.
Here is the outfit I chosed for the event. Among my black dresses, this is one of my favorites. Hope you like it as well.
Of course I pick my jewellery from the new collection of Swarovski.

Geçen hafta mağazada, Swarovski'nin ilkbahar/yaz koleksiyon sunumu gerçekleşti. Bu özel etkinliğe katılan konuklarımız, koleksiyon sunumu ve ikramlarla güzel bir akşam geçirdiler.
Bu etkinlik için seçtiğim elbisemi ve Swarovski takılarımı umarım beğenirsiniz.

last winter post in Turkey, hopefully

I worked during the weekend, when I'm done with work on sunday afternoon, the weather was so ugly that I don't feel like going out and taking pictures.
For me the only thing about winter is to go skiing and snowing during the new years eve..
What about you? are you a winter or a summer person? Or you enjoy most the freshness of spring or the romance of autumn?
Hope you enjoy the last winter pictures..I will be in UK next week for holiday. Hopefully when I come back it will be spring in Ankara.
Loves,

Pazar öğleden sonra işten çıktığımda hava o kadar kötüyüdü ki, evden çıkmak içimizden gelmedi. (zeynep ve ben) dolayısıyla planladığımız fotoğraf çekimini de yapamadık.
Baharın gelmesini beklerken, bu sabah da karlı bir havaya uyanmak hiç hoşuma gitmedi. Kayak yapmak da olmasa kış hiç çekilmez..
Peki ya siz benim gibi yaz insanı mısınız yoksa tam tersi mi? Bir yerde çoğu insanın en sevdiği mevsimin son bahar olduğunu okumuştum. Bu genel bir depresyon hali mi yoksa gerçekten sonbaharın insana huzur veren sakinliği mi?
Umarım bu son kış fotografları olur(Türkiye'de). Bu haftasonu İngiltere'ye gidiyorum, döndüğümde lütfen Ankara'ya bahar gelmiş olsun..
 Sevgiler,

and the oscar goes to...

Anne Hathaway Vintage Valentino Haute Couture
Red is not a right choice for her very pale white skin. Somebody else could look perfect in this dress but not Anne Hathaway. I also wonder when she will quit wearing her red lipstick..

Camila Alves Kaufman Franco
She looks glamorous, I love the dress, her hair and make up.

Jennifer Lawrance Calvin Klein Collection
One of the worst looks. Definitely not an appropriate dress for the event. 

Marisa Tomei Charles James
One of the worst looks again. The color ,the model, the unshaped heart collar, stripes of the dress..Eveything looks horrible..

Michelle Williams Chanel Haute Couture
 She has a unique style but this style is not ok for the red carpet. I really like her hair style and make up but this is not enough :(

Reese Witherspoon Giorgio Armani Privé
She had the best look when she was nominated and got the award of the best actress.This year I think she did not pay enough attention and showed up with this boring dress.

Cate Blanchett  Givenchy Haute Couture
She is a real risk taker but she made it anyway..Great look!

Scarlett Johansson Dolce&Gabbana
She can easily look beautiful as she has a great curvy body but this look is again not a right pick for the red carpet. I did not like the color either..

Jennifer Hudson Atelier Versace
She looks stunning..great color, great model, great hair and make up..I love her slim and confident look.

Penelope Cruz L'Wren Scott
I hated her red carpet choose but to me newly mother Penelope is always beautiful.

Gwyneth Paltrow Calvin Klein Collection
She is absolutely elegant and chic..To me she is one of the best looks of the red carpet.
