I love this city! (today's outfit post)/ Volim ovaj grad ( današnja odjevna kombinacija)


Am I feeling the Monday blues today? Hell no! It is a beautiful day here in Split today and all of the sudden a bunch of tourists appeared out of nowhere...how do they always know when it is the right time to show up?  Today I'm finally sure that the spring has arrived, in fact it feels  like summer. Besides that, I have another reason to be happy. Tonight I'm seeing Puccini  on stage for the first time! Isn't that fantastic?
 Anyway, today my outfit is all about making animal print classical....this is one of my low cost outfits and yet it makes me feel quite lady like which goes to prove that don't need much money to create a certain look. The hat is borrowed, the blouse is from Terra nova (5euros) and the heels from Peko (7 euros) and even the tights were something like 2 euros. The skirt is ( I think) my mum's. I love vintage so I'm happy she saved up her clothes from the 60ties/70ties/80ties...and a pencil skirt is something every women should have in her closet, don't you agree?

Lipi moji, kako ste? Nova šetemana i mogu van reć da mi je skroz lipo počela. Dan ne more bit lipši, sunčano je, a Split je put turista...kako samo znaju kad se triba pojavit? Imala sam dosta toga danas za obaviti (i još iman) ali uspila sam kupiti karte za Puccinija i jako san sritna! Prvi put ću gledat neku njegovu Operu uživo:) Ova kombinacija je moj pokušaj kombiniranja životinjskog uzorka i klasike i mogu van reć da se osićan skroz damski u ovome.... što dokazuje da van ne triba puno šoldi za postići neki određeni izgled jer kad promislim sve šta san danas nosila kupila san povoljno. Uska suknja malo iznad kolina je nešto šta svaka žena triba imat u ormaru (ova je mislin mamina) jer se može iskombinirat sa svin...pozdrav!

    Hello Ivana,

    gosh, yet another great post from you.

    I´m really not a friend of animals prints on clothings. But on you it looks awesome. You have such a Model-Figure, so you can wear of course these kind of short and tight clothing.

    Your big hat is just stunning.

    Bye.

    Jennifer

THE ISLAND OF THE MISSING TREES BY ELIF SHAFAK (BOOK REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION)

Image
Today I shall review The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak. I was actually gifted this book. What a wonderful present it proved to be! Published in 2021, this postmodern  novel  follows two  story lines and uses framed narration.  The Island of Missing Trees  tells the life story of a Greek Turkish couple and their adolescent daughter.  This novel examines and explores a number of topics such as identity, migration, immigrant life, war trauma, memory, love and family. It's an ambitious novel that examines serious topics with due respect and sensitivity . I read it months ago, but I remember it vividly. Honestly, I cried a lot while reading this novel. It really moved me greatly. In fact, that is probably why it took me this long to finish this book review. I needed to emotionally process the story.   The Island of Missing Trees is   set in London and Cyprus. The narration isn't chronological .  The story jumps back and forth, following two main timelines, one set in moder

10 STYLE LESSONS LEARNED FROM MALENA/ MONICA BELLUCCI

Image
With summer being in full spring, I caught myself thinking about iconic summer outfits. Do you know what came to my mind? Costumes/outfits worn by Monica Belluci when she played Malena Scordia in an iconic Italian movie set on Sicily.  The costumes for that movie were designed by an acclaimed Italian costume designer Maurizio Millenotti and he outdone himself! Seeing that Malena is a historical movie, Maurizio choose quite timeless outfits and cuts that will ever go out of style. That fact makes Malena movie the perfect place to look for inspiration! Moreover, I feel that Monica Belluci's personal style is quite similar to Malena's (i.e. to the style of the character she is playing). There is definitely a Mediterranean lady feel about Malena/Monica Bellucci. What says summer better than Mediterranean and Sicily? Today we'll analyze Malena's style and see what we can learn from her. There is much to learn! Having analyzed looks that Monica wore in iconic Malena film, I&

HACKING MONICA BELLUCCI'S STYLE SECRETS

Image
Hello dear readers! Today we'll be hacking Monica Bellucci's style secrets. Monica Bellucci is an Italian actress loved by many designers, including D&G duo and Dior. She is known for having a very feminine style of dressing.  One could definitely call her a style icon. So, why not analyze her style?  In this post, we will  start with identifying the key items in Monica's closet and then we are going to examine them. Finally, we'll hack her style secrets. I already wrote a bit about her style when I analyzed Malena's (character played by Monica Bellucci) wardrobe . The reasons why I have decided to write about her again is because of her timelessly elegant and chic style.  I happen to think Monica Bellucci has a very classical style of dressing that is quite ageless and universally flattering. In fact, you probably already have at least one of Monica's Bellucci key items in your closet.  When we see someone being stylish, we sometimes forget that style can

Jadrolinija ferry ride, travelling from Split to island Hvar (outfit post)

Image
Science proved that life on Earth originated in the sea but in our hearts we must have always felt it. Why otherwise would we feel so inspired by the sea? Who of us has not felt his or her heart opening up while mesmerized by the deep blueness of sea? Is it an echo of an oceanic birth of life? Is it our soul that wanders enchanted towards that greatest mystery? We feel the song of the sea, even when we don't understand it. Znanost je dokazala da je život na Zemlji započeo u moru, ali u našem srcu smo zacijelo to znali. Zašto bi nas more inače tako nadahnjivalo? Tko od nas nije osjetio kako mu se srce otvara dok biješe očaran dubokim plavetnilom mora? Je li to odjek morskog rođenja života?  Je li to naša duša koja luta očarana prema tom krajnjem misteriju? Osjećamo pjesmu mora, čak i kada je ne razumijemo. A SELECTION OF CROATIAN POETRY RIKARD KATALINIĆ JERETOV 1869-1954   Born in Volosko (Istria, Croatia), died in Split. During the Second World War he was arrested as a

FASHION ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY WATERCOLOUR: LONG DRESSES AND DE PROFUNDIS QUOTES!

Image
 Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! It's almost ten. I've had a long week and I'm quite tired and sleepy. However, I'll try to wrap this post up for you tonight. What kind of post? Well, a post about art. Fashion art to be more precise.  I've been on a roll lately with my art posts. After a period of not posting my art at all, due to a variety of reasons, I started posting my art in every post. I got back to my destination art series, and now it's time for another post in my fashion art series. Friday Fashion Illustration  is somewhat of a regular feature on my blog. Today I'll share two watercolour pencil fashion illustrations of mine. I sketched both of them this Summer in my A3 mixed media sketchbook. I sketched the long yellow dress first, and then the blue and read one. The medium for both of them is watercolour pencils on paper, the same brand I always use. I find watercolour pencils to be quite practical, especially for sketching. I often use the
