#SmearForSmear Campaign

#SmearForSmear

 The Smear for Smear campaign has been organised by Jo's Cervical Cancer Trust to mark the Cervical Cancer prevention. Jo's Cervical Cancer center is ensuring women will be reminded to get their annual Pap smear (The test was invented by and named after the prominent Greek doctor Georgios Papanikolaou).

What can we do to reduce our risk of the cervical cancer?

 A well-proven way to prevent cervix cancer is to have testing (screening) to find pre-cancers before they can turn into invasive cancer. The Pap test (or Pap smear) and the human papillomavirus (HPV) test are used for this. If a pre-cancer is found it can be treated, stopping cervical cancer before it really starts. Most invasive cervical cancers are found in women who have not had regular Pap tests. (Source: www.cancer.org)

 Το #SmearForSmear είναι μία καμπάνια που δημιουργήθηκε με σκοπό να σηματοδοτήσει την πρόληψη του καρκίνου του τραχήλου της μήτρας και να διασφαλίσει την ύπαρξη μιας υπενθύμισης προς όλες τις γυναίκες για το ετήσιο τεστ Παπ (Η εξέταση ανακαλύφθηκε και πήρε το όνομα της από τον Έλληνα γιατρό Γεώργιο Παπανικολάου).

 Τι μπορούμε να κάνουμε για να μειώσουμε τον κίνδυνο εμφάνισης του καρκίνου του τραχήλου της μήτρας;

 Ένας πολύ καλά αποδεδειγμένος τρόπος πρόληψης του συγκεκριμένου καρκίνου είναι ο έλεγχος για προκαρκινικά κύτταρα πριν αυτά εξελιχθούν σε καρκίνο του τραχήλου. Αυτό επιτυγχάνεται με την εξέταση Παπανικολάου (τεστ Παπ). Αν εντοπιστούν προκαρκινικά κύτταρα εγκαίρως μπορούν να αφαιρεθούν και να σταματήσουν τον καρκίνο πριν καν εμφανιστεί πραγματικά. Ο κίνδυνος εμφάνισης του καρκίνου του τραχήλου της μήτρας (σύμφωνα με το: www.glaxosmithkline.gr) είναι 5 φορές μεγαλύτερος σε γυναίκες που δεν ελέγχονται τακτικά. 

Μην αμελείτε το Τεστ Παπ, μπορεί να σας σώσει τη ζωή!

 I admit that I'm not the usual follower of this type of social media campaigns, because I believe that in most cases they don't really contribute to the main cause. But in this case I think that this campaign can be a good reminder for prevention.

Golden Globes 2015 "Red Carpet Gossipolgy"

 Happy February people!

 The 72nd Golden Globe Awards ceremony took place in California on January 11, 2015. Here is the annual Red Carpet Gossipology (better late than never) post. Check out what happened on the red carpet, the top five of the best red carpet appearances and some more interesting looks.

 My Top 5...

1. Emma Stone - Lanvin embellished jumpsuit with an oversized bow on the back. Christian Louboutin pointy pumps. My favourite appearance of the night. She was elegant and cool at the same time! Emma becomes a red carpet guru.

2. Jenna Dewan - Spring/Summer 2015 Carolina Herrera gown. Jimmy Choo box clutch and Lorraine Schwartz jewelry. She was absolutely gorgeous in this dress and her make up was just perfect.

4. Lupita Nyong'o - Fall/Winter 2014-15 Giambattista Valli couture dress. Chopard jewelry. Once again in the top 5, Lupita was gorgeous in this light purple gown. (Lupita wore Ralph Lauren at Golden Globes 2014 and took the 4th place again. Check it out here)

5. Felicity Jones - Christian Dior custom gown. Van Cleef and Arpel vintage jewelry was the perfect touch. This appearance is the definition of the "red carpet look". Felicity stood out in this classic, teal blue gown. Excellent hairstyle and smokey eye make up.

(Source: www.ifespacomultiplo.com.br)

Gina Rodriguez - Fall/Winter 2014-15 Badgley Mischka dress. Classic black dress and sophisticated make up. (Gossipology: Gina is the winner of the Best Actress in a TV Series, Musical or Comedy category)

Kate Hudson - Atelier Versace dress. Jimmy Choo clutch and Forevermark diamond jewelry. Fab and sexy! The dress fits perfect on her and I love the back. But I think that this look is too naked for my taste.

Dakota Johnson - Fall/Winter 2014-15 Chanel Couture dress and jewelry. Jimmy Choo sandals and Rauwolf bag. Sexy and pretty.

Lorde - Narciso Rodriguez custom outfit. Neil Lane jewelry. A modern look for Lorde.

P.s.2

 Also, in 2014 with my beloved friend and photographer Foteini Z. we made our first outfit posts.This post is dedicated (once again) with lots of love to Foteini because without her support, many crazy and inspiring ideas maybe F.G. wasn't able to celebrate second year! Thank you dear!!!

L's Outfit: Dear Santa

 Hey all,

 L is back!!! 

 It's been a loooong time since my last post but I'm finally back to my beloved F.G. with a brand new Christmas holiday outfit post. I have to confess that I wasn't so dedicated to Fashion Gossipology because the last few months I was struggling with many issues and changes in my life. Because of that  I didn't have enough time for blogging and I wasn't feel so inspired.  Now, I feel much better; with the new year comes new beginnings.

 Few weeks ago, Anastasia blogger of The howse project , my favourite photographer Foteini Z., the MakeUp Artist Athina Kouzmidou and I decided to do this Christmas photo shoot. We had a lot of fun posing and  playing around that day. This photo shoot took place in "Christmas Factory" in Technopolis, Gazi.

(Picture by Foteini Z.)

 This is a post about the New Year! So, here is my goals for 2015 or...Dear Santa this year I want to:

1. Be happy
2. Be more ambitious
3. Discover who I am and what I really want from my life
4. Travel more
5. Be more dedicated to Fashion Gossipology

Dear Santa outfit post...

 In this Christmas holiday outfit post my style is casual - rock, I wear a leather like high waisted skirt (Fashion Trend - The Leather Effect), ankle boots, knee socks, a white hoodie shirt and of course Santa's hat.

 Anastasia's style is country - casual, she wear a floral high waisted skirt, a knitted crop top, knee socks, leather booties and Santa's hat.

    Μετά από πολύ καιρό είμαι και πάλι εδώ στο αγαπημένο μου F.G. με μία ολοκαίνουρια γιορτινή ανάρτηση. Πρέπει να ομολογήσω πως δεν ήμουν τόσο αφοσιωμένη στο Fashion Gossipology γιατί τους τελευταίους μήνες έπρεπε να αντιμετωπίσω πολλά θέματα και αλλαγές στη ζωή μου με αποτέλεσμα να μην έχω πολύ χρόνο για να γράφω αλλά ούτε ιδιαίτερη έμπνευση. Τώρα είμαι πολύ καλύτερα και ένας νέος χρόνος με νέα ξεκινήματα έρχεται. 

 Πριν από μερικές εβδομάδες λοιπόν, η Αναστασία από το The howse project, η αγαπημένη μου φωτογράφος Foteini Z., η MakeUp Artist Athina Kouzmidou   και εγώ αποφασίσαμε να κάνουμε αυτήν τη Χριστουγεννιάτικη φωτογράφιση.  Διασκεδάσαμε αρκετά κατά τη διάρκεια της φωτογράφισης η οποία έγινε στο "Christmas Factory" στην Τεχνόπολη στο Γκάζι. 

 Αυτή η ανάρτηση είναι για τη νέα χρονιά! Αυτοί λοιπόν είναι οι στόχοι μου για το 2015 ή αλλιώς...Αγαπητέ Άγιε Βασίλη αυτή τη χρονιά θέλω:

1. Να είμαι χαρούμενη
2. Να είμαι πιο φιλόδοξη
3. Να ανακαλύψω ποια είμαι και τι θέλω από τη ζωή μου
4. Να κάνω περισσότερα ταξίδια
5. Να είμαι περισσότερο αφοσιωμένη στο Fashion Gossipology                                  

  Σε αυτήν τη Χριστουγεννιάτικη - γιορτινή ανάρτηση επέλεξα το στυλ μου να είναι λίγο ροκ και να φορέσω μία ψηλόμεση, τύπου δερμάτινη φούστα (Fashion Trend - The Leather Effect), ένα λευκό μπλουζάκι με κουκούλα, μποτίνια, κάλτσες έως το γόνατο και φυσικά το σκουφί του Άγιου Βασίλη. 

 Η Αναστασία με πιο καθημερινό στυλ, φοράει μία ψηλόμεση λουλουδάτη φούστα, ένα πλεκτό κοντό μπλουζάκι, κάλτσες έως το γόνατο, δερμάτινα μποτάκια και το σκούφο του Άγιου Βασίλη.                                               

                                                                

             

Happy Holidays!!!!

 I want to thank Anastasia, Foteini for this post and special thanks to Athina Kouzmidou  for the amazing makeup!!

P.s.2

 I am not the type of person who is setting goals every New Year. I have to admit that this is my very first time.

 Αυτή είναι η πρώτη ανάρτηση του καλοκαιριού και αποτελεί τάση της μόδας!

 Το τζιν σορτσάκι είναι το απόλυτο κομμάτι για την καλοκαιρινή σου γκαρνταρόμπα. Είναι άνετο, ευκολοφόρετο από το πρωί έως το βράδυ, στην παραλία, σε μία βραδινή έξοδο ή στη βόλτα σου. Επίσης μπορείς να το βρεις σε κάθε τιμή.

 Επίλεξε το κατάλληλο τζιν σορτς για το σωματότυπό σου και το στυλ σου, μέσα από μία μεγάλη ποικιλία επιλογών (μακρύ, ψηλόμεσο, σκισμένο, αντρικό, χαλαρό, στενό, κ.α.).

 Σε αυτήν την ανάρτηση θα βρεις ιδέες πως να φορέσεις το τζιν σορτσάκι σου και το Under €50 project που σε βοηθά να βρεις την καυτή τάση του καλοκαιριού σε χαμηλή τιμή.
