Passion for Best Memories of 2012

If I had to summarize 2012 in one word, that word would be PASSION! I have travelled less in 2012 than in 2011, but travel still is and will be one of my number one passions and of course New York has my heart (and someone else). I went back to Dubai and Abu Dhabi at the beginning of the year that marked a number of beginnings and had experienced my date with destiny. In January 2012 I have also created and launched my Passion for brand by xoxo ES which started with t-shirts and now has moved on to mugs and I-phone cases. I have designed the Passion for Make-A-Wish Greece Volunteer Family which has been worn by many Volunteers throughout the year and by Hollywood Actresses, Elaine Hendrix and Erica Ash (thanks to my friend Desi).

Passion for my Beanie

A festive mood, the year is coming to an end, and all of us are waiting for new events, projects, and pleasant surprises! I love the beanie trend this season, especially those with pompons, because they remind me of my childhood, happy and carefree years. Bright and beautiful. Until next time. xoxo ES

Passion for LOVE

As the year is nearly coming to an end, I would like to thank you all my readers for your continuous support in 2012. I love you and want to give each and everyone of you the love that I feel here and now. Thank you! Until next time. xoxo ES 

Passion for Матрёшка

Merry Christmas (to those who celebrated these days) my dear readers! I would like to present to you, my new t-shirt design created by Passion for xoxo ES, where the main character, is our beloved matryoshka. Our matryoshka is well known around the world, and every year designers add her “highness” to their collections. Until next time. xoxo ES

Passion for Christmas Gifts

Santa Claus is coming to town…Merry Christmas everyone! Wishing all my readers a fabulous time, enjoy the holidays with your friends and families! Thank you for reading liveyourpassion and for your continuous support. Love you all! I know that Christmas Day hasn't arrived yet, but I have decided to cheat and open my presents earlier. The Chanel makeup was a present from my co-workers and the rest are from my girls Agra and Rarachka! Until next time. Let’s Celebrate! xoxo ES

Passion for Fur please...

Have we reached the end of the world yet?! Apparently not! But today I am closing a big chapter of my life, and that is after four years of working for Alpine Center, I am now officially a permanent vacationer ..lol. I have decided that the time has come for me to take a break, do some soul searching and focus on the passions in my life, one of which has become blogging. Over the years I was always on a wild goose chase for having “the career”, where you forget to ask yourself whether you are truly happy and dedicate the time to yourself. Whether you are where you want to be, and when you focus on the present. I have had a wonderful decade of experience in the hospitality industry, I have been places, met people and worked my “ass” off (excuse me for the bad language).

Passion for Black vs Leopard print

Weekend time! Rise and shine fashionistas. I love the combination of wearing a total black look and to team it up with one eccentric item. In this case the Versace for H&M skirt which I bought in Milan last year. I really loved this cooperation and all the items from the Collection rocked! Wishing you all a fabulous weekend. Until next time. xoxo ES

Passion for Manila Grace scarf

Happy weekend fashionistas! The star of today’s post is the Manila Grace scarf which I received for my birthday; it was a special delivery from Milan. I decided to style the whole outfit based on this scarf. Do you usually work on your outfit, starting off with one piece? Here I am wearing an oversized gold sweater, a pair of Seven jeans, lots of gold style rings and a vintage bag which I found in my mum’s wardrobe. To make it more glam I added a Victoria’s Secret tag to it, for a modern effect. Like it? Until next time. xoxo ES

Passion for Make-A-Wish by Vicky Kaya for Links of London bracelet

Good morning sweethearts! On Thursday I attended the presentation of the Make-A-Wish Greece limited edition bracelet which was designed by Vicky Kaya in cooperation with the Links of London. The event took place at the Links of London store located in the Golden Hall Mall. The bracelet is available in blue and red at a price of €40. A share of the profits will go to Make-A-Wish Greece in order to help and support the organization in making more of the “wishes” come true. This is a great idea for Christmas presents. Come and follow Make-A-Wish Greece on facebook. Until next time. xoxo ES
