Assos in crochet and pearls

While in Kefalonia we were discussing with my sister how different fashion rules apply when on vacation. I am not sure that this is the case everywhere but when on a greek island in the summer time, it is very normal to see people walking around on their bathing suits and nothing else anywhere at any time of the day. I am not brave enough to walk around just on my swimsuit but it did give me the confidence to go around Kefalonia wearing just a pair of shorts and a crochet top on top of my suit.

Crochet and wicker

You know how much I appreciate handmade beautiful creations. This black top I have had for some months but the weather wasn't warm enough until now to wear it. The niece of a colleague made it for me and she crocheted it in no time! It was impressive how she asked for my measurements and then in a few days it was already ready for me to use. As for the piggy bag, if you remember I had bought it in Oaxaca when I visited in October and although I do not wear it very often I must say I still love its playful nature. 

The greatest thing about these handmade pieces is that as you can see they can be easily combined with high street and high fashion brands and create a whole new, interesting look!
