Time for more

Hello everyone,

So its the 17th November 2015 on a grey autumn day when 5 degree celsius dont seem like the scariest form of winter. They say this year we will have to wait for snow a bit longer and the weather forecasts announce the ski period to be starting later in Q1 2016. The ski resorts are becoming creative and try to attract tourists by renewing the top of the mountain aprés ski bars and by advertising gigs with famous dj`s.

At the same time the world is going crazy…facebook, linkedin, twitter and other social media are full of solidarity pictures for what has happened in France on Friday the 13th November 2015. A black friday that has changed the meaning for not only the people in the UK, but for everyone who is not ignorant to what is happening these days. Further south east in Greece there is daily circumstances that are faced by the local people who never thought will occur to them in the beginning of the year 2015 when all they were worried about was the “financial” crisis of their country. Now almost 11 months later the “refugee” crisis is more than present and is becoming a core problem for our societies, our countries, for Europe and for the World. Humanity is asked more than often. Humanity is online. Humanity is trend. There is a battle on who will post the most shocking picture or who will show the most empathy through the various communication channels. The competition on whose likes and comments are more significant and the search for who is to blame has started. Every second, every minute, every hour you can read or see something -hear someone talking about the tragedies in many places of the world. We have all become little researchers inside the world wide web.

And I am thinking out loud… why if we all have time to research and participate in this global online solidarity actions we do not use our time for more? You may ask me now what is more? What should one do? I am also sitting here writing my blog post…. but maybe this is exactly the question that we have to ask ourselves! What more can we do with time? How can we use it so that our world becomes a better place? What is it that will bring joy and love to humanity? And who can change the fear in the hearts of the broken children into power, courage and hope? How much time will pass until we can forget our bad memories, heal our scars and forgive the people who hurt us?

When will words like SOLIDARITY, HUMANITY and most of all LOVE start being values and stop being trends? Maybe its time to make our pure values the fashion we live in?!

I hope from the bottom of my heart that this year will be lesson learned for whatever we will have to face in the future and that every single one of us can reflect on what is relevant in time. I hope you can use your time for more dreams, more love, more creativity and more inspiration in order to keep your vision for a better tomorrow.

…..because lets not forget what Henry David Thoreau once said: “We were not born to be forced. We will breathe after our own fashion.”

In that sense, have a great tuesday…

Welcome to the world of AKA Concept

First of all, let me say that AKA Concept is an experiment….

Its the very first time I am actually sitting here writing in my 60m2 vintage apartment with view to the very top of the Prime Tower shining in the winter sun.

It is funny, how 2015 has started very dynamic and people are looking for new things to do this year. It seems like the changes of the last few years turn into action and this is when timing is called as right. It is a momentum that you should not miss. A step to take and by saying this one of my most favorite quotas comes to my busy mind “A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step”. I am more than happy to go this journey together with you and hope that we get to know each other step by step.

AKA Concept will be here sharing ideas, useful advice and knowhow on things that might be seen and taken for granted for many of you, but still will never be out of fashion!

AKA concept will be a plattform for you, your friends, your mums, sisters, brothers, soulmates and whoever wants to express their inside world in styling, looks or simple themes for their every day life. Because only when you live your inside world to the outside you can complete your picture and reflect your personality to anyone interested in getting to know you.

I am happy to receive messages, suggestions, questions, wishes or anything of interest to you and will try to give you feedback on all your requests. This is to assist you in feeling comfortable with yourself and to guide you through the jungle of fashion until you find your own little fashion path that will underline whatever you love about yourself.

AKA concept will help you find new visions, remember old characteristics, experiment with yourself and believe in who you are.

Because lets not forget “If you ever let your head down, it should be just to admire yourself”.

Yours,

AKA Concept
