yesterday's outfit: lenon sunnies/ jučerašnja odjevna kombinacija: lenonice

It seems that welcoming a sunny day with summer photos was a good idea, because yesterday was one of those perfect sunny winter days here in Mostar. Somehow wearing Lenon sunnies makes me feel Asian (perhaps that has something do with Yoko Ono, perhaps I have her image in my subconciousness) and besides they're just fun! Usually I opt for big classical sunnies, so this felt like a welcome change.

Izgleda da je bila dobra ideja jučer izjutra objaviti one ljetne fotografije jer je zaista jučerašnji dan bio sunčan, ako ne ljetni onda kao proljetni. Ja se neću buniti ako proljeće urani. Baš sam uživala u šetnji Mostarom jučer. Izvukla sam odnekuda ove stare lenonice  ( kojima se uvijek osjećam azijatski možda mi je slika Yoko Ono negdje u podsvijesti)  i baš mi je dobro došla promjera jer inače uvijek nosim velike crne sunčane. Nasmijala me neka bakica u prolazu koja je tražila veći osmijeh. Legenda! 
 Some old lady made me laugh with her comments. As my husband was taking photos, she asked me where my smile was, wanting to see a bigger one, so here it is.
 Once more, I'm wearing above the knee socks, this time Penti. I like them so much because they keep me warm. The rest of the outfit is no name. For some reason I avoid mals and highstreet brands.
 Mostar is a city that has many rivers. Obvioulsy, Neretva is the best know one, but there are many minor ones as you can see. If you're interested I can dig out photos of most of them.

 I'm almost one of those bird watchers. I don't do it as a hobby, but when I get a chance I can watch at birds for hours.
 Isn't this just the sweetest love couple? I love ducks, they're full of energy and craziness. You never know what they will do.
 A friend of mine once had a duck as a pet. Isn't that an idea? But probably they prefer living in  the wild.
 These are city ducks one could say. Isn't it great when a city has nice parks?
 I love it when you can feel relaxed in a city just by visiting a nice park.

 Yesterday it felt like spring. Perhaps the spring decided to come early?

Is there anything better than a lovely sunny day?

Catch me if you can....Have you seen that film btw, I really like it.
When I took this photo,  I was thinking something along "Sun deity please don't leave us!"
Thank you for reading this. xoxo

Hvala na čitanju! pozdrav:)

    Hello Ivana,

    looks like a sunny day. This forest looks like a peaceful and relaxing place. I also love it to take a walk in such environment, specally alone - in this time i can relax my mind and feel free!

    Bye.

All your comments mean a lot to me, even the criticism. Naravno da mi puno znači što ste uzeli vrijeme da nešto napišete, pa makar to bila i kritika. Per me le vostre parole sono sempre preziose anche quando si tratta di critiche.

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

SUPPORTING LOCAL DESIGNERS IN MOSTAR: TRANSITIONAL AUTUMN STYLING WITH OZZ BRAND

Image
Hello readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll share two transitional outfits featuring a lilac skirt from fashion designer Stanka Zovko. If you're a regular reader of this blog, you've probably seen this skirt before. Afterall, I'm really good at shopping my closet. I've been wearing this lilac skirt a lot in the past few months. It's also a great piece for transitional weather because it can be easily layered, or dressed up and down.  Supporting local designers and artisans is certainly something that pays off in the long run. If you want to own unique pieces and at the same time, support your local community, you should really explore shopping local, or commissioning local artisans and designers.  Sustainability in fashion is a big topic nowadays! However, sometimes I feel like people make it more complicated than it really is. We should go back to our origins. Explore vintage, second hand and local shopping. Learn how to stay away from the big shoppin

FORGIVENESS DAY BY URSULA K. LE GUIN (BOOK REVIEW AND AN AUTUMN STYLING)

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! How are you today? I'm back with another Ursula K. Le Guin book review. In this post, I'll review " Forgiveness Day" , a science fiction novella that is a part of the Hainish Circle. Published in 1995, "Forgiveness Day " won multiple awards. This novella is often published together with her other novellas from the Hainish Circle, and it can be find in various editions of Four Ways to Forgiveness and Five Ways to Forgiveness.   Thematically, this novella is a part of five stories featuring two Hainish planets, but it can definitely be read on its own. I think it functions well as a stand alone novella. I listened to it in audio form, and I didn't have any problems following the story.  The world building is simple and effective. The author fills us in about the history of the two planets as the story enfolds. For such a short work of prose, this novella is really impressive in that it manages to explore the theme o

MALTA HIKING TALES (PART FIVE) GHAJN TUFFIEFA AND QUARABBA BAY

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! I'm back with another Malta themed post. Recently I posted a painting inspired by Malta. As some of you might remember, I visited Malta a few years ago, but I only blogged about it last April, when I published a series of post on Malta. My series about Malta isn't finished, though. In fact, today we're going to continue it. Considering my stay on Malta was two weeks long, it deserves more than a couple of posts. There is a lot to see and do on Malta. It's a small island, but one that's filled with so much life and beauty. Although Malta faces some problems caused by fast tourism, it remains an unique and magical island.  In this post, I'll take you to the bays I visited while hiking on Malta. One of them (Ghajn Tuffieha Bay) is the one I painted. You can visit that post by clicking on the link below: TRAVEL WITH MY ART #43, GHAJN TUFFIEHA BAY, MALTA LET'S START WITH THE GOLDEN BAY We actually didn't go all the way

THE ANT AND THE GRASSHOPPER, A SHORT STORY BY W. SOMERSET MAUGHAM

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! Welcome November! We'll welcome this new month with a blog review. In this post, I'll share my review for Maugham's short story titled T he Ant and the Grasshopper . This post will also be  a reading recommendation because I enjoyed this story a great deal. I've been reading Maugham's The Complete Short Stories for some time now. I've been taking my time with this collection, but I enjoyed it a lot. When I finish this book in its entirely, I'll share a review for all of his stories. Until then, I'll keep posting individual reviews of stories I liked the most. If you want to read Maugham yourself, you can find his collected works online (among other places  on project Gutenberg ) and read them for free.  W. Somerset Maugham is a writer whose subtle use of humour is delightful, but sometimes it's easy to miss it just because it's so subtle. He's wonderful at mixing the harsh realities of life with clever

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
