today's outfit post "heavy is the head that wears the crown" - današnje ruho "teška je glava pod krunom"

Heavy is the head that wears the crown. Unless that crown is made of braids. Someone remarked that my hear- do today looks like a crown so that is as a good reason to quote Shakespeare as any. ( In original text it is actually " Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown" but for some reason it is always misquoted)  .

Lipi moji, kako ste? Teška je grana pod krunom, ali ne ako je to kruna od pletenica. Netko mi je danas rekao da mi ove pletenice izgledaju kao kruna pa  moram malo citirati Shakespeara, ali neću ulaziti u filozofske rasprave, bez brige. 

“I know you all, and will awhile uphold
The unyoked humour of your idleness.
Yet herein will I imitate the sun,
Who doth permit the base contagious clouds
To smother up his beauty from the world,
That when he please again to be himself,
Being wanted, he may be more wondered at
By breaking through the foul and ugly mists
Of vapours that did seem to strangle him.
If all the year were playing holidays,
To sport would be as tedious as to work;
But when they seldom come, they wished-for come,
And nothing pleaseth but rare accidents.
So, when this loose behaviour I throw off
And pay the debt I never promisèd,
By how much better than my word I am,
By so much shall I falsify men’s hopes;
And like bright metal on a sullen ground,
My reformation, glitt’ring o’er my fault,
Shall show more goodly and attract more eyes
Than that which hath no foil to set it off.
I’ll so offend to make offence a skill,
Redeeming time when men think least I will.”

William Shakespeare, King Henry IV

“What is in that word "honor"? What is that "honor"? Air. A trim reckoning. Who hath it? He that died o' Wednesday. Doth he feel it? No. Doth he hear it? No. 'Tis insensible, then? Yea, to the dead. But will it not live with the living? No. Why? Detraction will not suffer it. Therefore, I'll none of it. Honor is a mere scutcheon. And so ends my catechism.”

William Shakespeare, King Henry IV

“Presume not that I am the thing I was;
For God doth know, so shall the world perceive,
That I have turn'd away my former self;
So will I those that kept me company.”

.....

“Rumour is a pipe
Blown by surmises, jealousies, conjectures
And of so easy and so plain a stop
That the blunt monster with uncounted heads,
The still-discordant wavering multitude,
Can play upon it.”

William Shakespeare, King Henry IV

Who ever said your hair is you best accessory knew what he was talking about. Today my hair do made me feel unique and that is a good feeling. It didn't require much time and I haven't used any hair products, but I should say that I'm as used to braiding as to brushing my hair. It did require a lot of bobby pins, to that I'll confess. What else? This jacket is a second hand find and I've been waiting for a sunny and warm day to wear it (pepita pattern- how I love thee!). That day has finally arrived. Just to be on the safe side, there was some layering involved. This belt is a gift, hence special, but I'm not sure does it go with the cut of this jacket. Nevertheless since I've love belts so much I couldn't resist. It was a perfect day to sit on a bench with your sweet heart as many were doing (here in Mostar on the Spanish square if anyone is interested in the location). Some  photographs of me sitting on the bench were taken, but since my legs are too long for it, I ended up looking like a praying mantis. So, I won't post them unless you promise not to laugh.

Tko god je rekao da je kosa najbolji modni dodatak, znao je o čemu govori. Naposljetku kosa odražava toliko toga, ali i o tome nekom drugom prilikom, ne želim vas udaviti dužinom teksta. Danas sam se zbog ove frizure osjećala posebno, a nije mi trebalo puno vremena za ovu frizuru, samo puno ukosnica. Nisam koristila nikakve preparate i obično ih ne koristim, samo u posebnim prigodama kad mi netko drugi uređuje kosu...nego što da još kažem? Dan je kao što vidite na fotografijama bio predivan i sunčan ovdje u Mostaru, na španjolskom trgu (ukoliko koga zanima lokacija) i brojni su parovi sjedili na klupama i uživali u suncu. Mi smo također, ali fotografije mene kako sjetim na klupi neću djelit jer su ove klupe preniske pa nisam imala gdje sa nogama i ispala sam kao bogomoljka. Podijelit ću ih sa vama samo ako obećate da se nećete smijati. Što se tiče mog današnjeg ruha gotovo sve je poklon (rebe tj. traperice, borša tj. torba, čizmice koje ste vidjeli već sto puta i za koje sam rekla da su kupljene u Leonarda ) Zeleni džemper sam kupila ove zime u Graciji, a pepita jaknu (joj što volim taj uzorak) sam našla u second hand shopu. To bi bilo to, hvala na čitanju.
