Back from holidays and the weather is so goth

0 comments
Hello all. I was away on summer holidays in Greece where I got a lot of sun (so un-goth I know) and I did a lot of snorkeling which I loved, saw my friends and family etc., and in general I had a great time.

I got almost sunburned the first week because I have a very fair skin and I used a 20 sunscreen only, which was not a good idea, so then I got a 50+ and my skin was saved. C'mon give me some goth points for that :)

Anyway, I want to share my short clothing tip of the summer with you, especially for you that thinking of traveling in a very warm country like Greece for your holidays. I'm from Athens and I know how impossibly hot it gets there so I wanted to find something elegant, goth and light, to help me look nice during my time there. I knew I wanted a dress of some sort and... yes I found it.

This is an amazing dress from the Sweden rock e-shop and you can find it here: http://www.swedenrock-online.se/innocent-khorion-klaenning/art_247589/
I'm not affiliated in any way with this store. I just wanted to say that it was exactly what I needed. I was wearing it almost every day (yes yes washing it often of course) paired with my Dr.Marten boots. It is comfy, light and goth!
Perfect for darklings who want to travel to hot summer destinations!

You don't need to get the exact dress of course, but my advice is to look for something in that direction. Looks great as is or you can also match it with a pair of black leggings (short or long ones).

Enjoy your summer style and stay goth!

My summer holidays and what does a goth wear during summer time, plus some gaming

It's been quite a while since my last update.
Guilty as charged.

I got a bit busy with my work and well as summer was approaching we started planning our summer holidays.

Since I'm from Greece it was no brainer. We booked our tickets and decided to stay for almost a month.

Since I have all my family there, it was convenient since we avoided paying too much on hotels. However we did do our road trips so we got to see amazing places.

It wasn't that much goth this trip. I mean yes, I did wear my Rammstein t-shirt, my black shorts and my doc
martens (luckily it was not that hot this summer) and well, mostly black clothes.
Here is a polyvore set I made that shows exactly my summer outfits.
Summer gothic style - simple



But our days were filled with sun (so anti-goth but needed for biological purposes as life in Sweden demands for that extra vitamine D), iced coffee and beer drinking, sea, enjoying the greek country side, and of course greek (mum's) food :).

It was refreshing but we both needed something more. And it came. We went to Germany to Gamescom!!
Hell yeah! It was good that we had a ticket for only one day, otherwise it would have been pretty expensive.

I went straight to the Valve merch-stand and went crazy shopping. Ok not that crazy because many items were already sold out.

But since I'm a Half Life/ Portal fan I did buy my coffee mugs, bracelet and even a cake mix (pictures coming).


Gamescom itself was amazing. Exhausting, but amazing.

I would love to go again next year.

As of now, well, I'm back on my routines, my school, my work etc.

And my love for the goth is still alive and kicking.

Updates and more pictures soon. Stay tuned
