IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY SHOP ..IN OIA

http://www.itsabeautifulday.gr/page1.aspx


How i loved high heeled shoes in my heyday as a 20 year old i had a colour for every outfit and it was great to change mood with the colour i wore .

Funny how shoes can make a big finish to what you wear ,your hair can be terrible but if your shoes don't match then you have a big problem .Ladies how many of you have been during the summer days on holidays in your flip-flops, sports shoes or bear feet during the hot days but come to the evening ready to go out and enjoy a lovely evening wining and dining in beauty and been so relaxed you wish you could shout out look at my shoes well no need people will see them and either ask you where you bought them or admire with the same joy you have in wearing them . 


SO GO GIRLS AND SHOW YOUR 
FEET THIS SUMMER
 IN
STYLE 

ΣΠΗΛΙΑ (CAVE) SHOP IN OIA

Maria it is amazing how things look hanging on a clothes rail. But once you try them on the colour can make you feel different .So for that reason it is lovely when going into your shop your energy and eagerness to say " Lets play with clothes" and in the end people walk out feeling great at their experience and remember when wearing the item of clothing they  have bought in your shop .

ELEGY SHOP IN OIA

 How a painting in the background can lay there in showing the soul and heart of the artist that money can never buy, but sits there to remind the beauties of the female or male body  the distance thoughts and dreams that in time blossom when an artist picks up the paintbrush and feels that some art can be sold that money can buy . 

Glass is also an art formed in another way of showing 
the inner craft of mood and touch and as light falls at angles to reflect glows when displayed or hung in special places to bring out the beauties of a home . 
     
      Elegy shop has created a balance of art in representing
      a few greek artist that is worth going into the shop and
      remembering when you take away a piece of art with
      fond memories  of santorini and the greek people .
