One of my favourite - i want to live there so badly -
mansions in my city. Unfortunately,
at the time i was in the era, the building was under maintenance
and made it difficult to snap some clear photos.
But you can see it's lovely architecture.
Those two babies came home all way from my trip to Scotland.
A very comfortable simple long black dress and a gorgeous mini purse.
And some beauty related products.
Can you spot the spider?
But, let me write you some more about the mansion.
Many know the building as "The Mansion on the road Μetamorphoseos"
(literally meaning Renaissance, Greek; Μεταμορφώσεως).
Built in 1896 is one of the remaining examples of architecture of Thessaloniki
before the fire of 1917.
It was originally used as a Bulgarian Consulate and after the liberation of Thessaloniki in 1912,
was purchased by the Petridis family ('60s).
About 20 somethings years ago it was no longer used as a residence
and it became property of the municipality of Thessaloniki.
It housed a transportation office and also served as a warehouse.
The restoration work began on 2006.
P.S
The legend says it's haunted...
I know I same the same thing on every post, but I mean it; lovely photographs! You have a very elegant style and presence. Aww, I see the little spider.~ I actually love spiders. My brother showed me a huge spider on a plant at his college campus! They are such magnificent creatures (though, obviously, if they are poisonous, I wouldn't like them near me). That is an intriguing mansion! I hope you may visit it one day. Have a lovely week.~

ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήΠάρε και τον δικό μου (εφηβικό και παντοτινό) έρωτα: http://www.panoramio.com/photo/40454324
Ας είχα τα λεφτά.. Λοιπόν κάνε μια ανάρτηση για την ομορφιά που μου έστειλες, πρέπει να είναι ακόμα πιο εντυπωσιακό απο κοντά!!! :O
ΔιαγραφήThat building is sooo pretty :D I like such buildings so much!! :)
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήAlso, I love the pattern on the little purse - paisley is imho one of the prettiest patterns, especially in the blue-orange or blue-yellow combination :D
Oh i had no idea the name of the pattern (thank you my dear for the info!). Indeed they are really beautiful! <3
ΔιαγραφήI enjoy your Summer posts, it looks like you can deal really well with hot weather (I am green with envy :P). Actually, it´s a pity that Summer is always over, although we will enjoy some long Fall after that. Are you making any special preparations for the Halloween sesaon? :)
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήThank you :D But no my tolerance for heat and sun - in general for the summer - is extremely low. It causes me physically many problems (i hate everyone during summer haha) but yeah, i survived yet an other one!!! :) Halloween season, oh well, bad that we do not celebrate it but good that i celebrate it all the year! Maybe i will find an other hidden Halloween treasure around. Hope the same for you :D<3
ΔιαγραφήThe house is amazing! The details with the rings on the corners are unique, something I've never seen before. Your dress is lovely.
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήIt has such a beautiful architecture and it's even beautiful from the moment they restore it to it's previous - guess- beauty. Glad you liked it ^-^
