newyorknewyork

Jay-Z's Empire State of Mind with Alicia Keys vocals became one of my favorites these days. Not only because they are talented musicians but also because the song could not express my feelings for big apple any better...
...
In New York

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can’t do

Now you’re in New York

T
hese streets will make you feel brand new
B
ig lights will inspire you
let's here it for New York
...


Here is the song with an NYC street fashion parade by The Sartorialist.
Women in NY; stylish, cool and definitely confident...

Alexander Wang Coco Duffel Bag...
It is simple and yet punk. It took my heart the first time I saw MK wearing it. Lately the Hills star Kristen Cavallari is wearing it almost to everywhere.










It has also been spotted on the streets during the Spring 2010 Fashion Weeks.



And yes I want this bag...

rock'n'fashion

I am in a rock mood these days... Maybe it is because I grew up listening them, had their posters all across my walls; I have to feed the inner rock child periodically, feed her with Kurt, Axl, Eddie, Richie, Chris and many others.

We have been seeing the rock chic all around last few years, having its best times nowadays. Studs, chains, leathers, vintage rock t-shirts... I like this rock chic attitude. The though girls of the fashion industry have been sporting it very well accompanying the outfits with the rockest attitude just as the senior style editor of ELLE US (Kate Lanphear) does.

bozcaada/tenedos

We have been to Bozcaada/Tenedos during the bayram holiday with my husband and father in law.

Bozcaada is famous for it's wineyards, crystal clear and chilly water and the lovely city center where you can find nice cafes and boutique hotels. It is about 6 kms far from the mainland and you can reach there by ferry which makes a round trip every two hours between the island and the mainland. For more information about the timetable visit GESTAŞ.





















Bozcaadas's history is dating back to 8th century, as it is known to be an established sanctuary of Apollo. According to Greek mythology, the name "Tenedos" is derived from the eponymous hero Tenes, who ruled the island at the time of the Trojan War and was killed by Achilles (ref:wiki). And after 15th Century the island was ruled by the Ottoman Empire being an important supply base for the Navy.

We are planning to go there again in July or August for a couple of days with our friends to enjoy the sea, the food and the wine.
