a little place to call my own (art and fashion blog)

I don't have a lot of May outfits to share...partly due to the weather, partly due to lacking a willing photographer and partly because I've been posting about other things.... xoxo Nemam puno odjevnih kombinacija za podijeliti ovog svibnja, djelomično zbog vremena, djelomično zbog nedostatka voljnog fotografa, a djelomično jer sam postala i o nekim drugim stvarima ovog svibnja....pozdrav

Today I took some photos while walking...with so much rain, everything is green... Remember those DIY with earrings(accessories)? I figured out that they can be worn as bracelets as well. What do you think? Danas sam šetala uz Neretvi i uslikala sam par fotografija, a kao što možete vidjeti sve je zeleno što nije čudno uz svu tu kišu...Sjećate se onih naušnica koje sam išarala? Skužila sam da se mogu nositi i kao narukvice. Što mislite?

I just love second hand shops. It is an easy way to be original because the chance is that you'll be the only one wearing that item of clothing. In addition, they're not limited to the "in stuff" but have a larger variety of choice. This blue blouse sure did come in handy lots of times...and you have seen it a few times on my blog...On other note, it's raining non stop here in Mostar so this is one of those "before the rain outfits".xoxo Dragi su mi dućani u kojima se kupuje roba iz druge ruke. Nekako je kao biti originalan kad to što tamo kupite vjerovatno nitko nema. Također, nisu ograničeni na ono što je trenutno u modi već je izbor veći što se tiče materijala i krojeva.... Ova plava bluza mi je često bila više nego dobrodošla, nekako lako ide u sve pa ste je već vidjeli nekoliko puta na blogu. Usput u Mostaru pada kiša pa je ovo naravno jedna starija kombinacija, prije kišnih dana...

Today I'm going to show you how you can make an old denim skirt a bit more fun. All you need is some material ( I chose a flowery pattern because I like it but anything goes really), a needle and a thread... You don't have to be neat, you don't have to use a sewing machine, you can sew it by hand in no time.  Just pick a material you like, cut out a shape you like and really you can attach it in a few minutes. I guess glowing it is also an option, but to me this just seems more simple... and really it is low cost DIY. (The chance is that you'll have everything you need at home). Anyway, this wasn't enough for me so I DIY-ed (is that even a verb?) something else...scroll down to see what... Danas ću vam pokazat jedan mali uradi sam projekt koji je stvarno jednostavan. Samo trebate izabrati komad tkanine koji vam se sviđa (ja sam odabrala cvjetni uzorak ali može bilo što), odrezati oblik i prišiti ga. Pretpostavljam da se ista stvar može napraviti i sa ljepilom, al...

The star of today's post is (again) my hometown Split. This time it is in the background...but still it is quite a city even in the background:) I'm thinking about doing a similar post but about Mostar, what do you think? Danas tko o čemu ja opet o Splitu...pada kiša, a ja pregledavam stare fotografije... pregršt fotografija, a na svima Split u pozadini...Razmišljam da napravim slični post ali o Mostaru, što mislite?

Baseball caps...don't know what it is about them but I love them. Do you like wearing hats? Anyway, the weather has been quite crazy like everywhere else it seems. Being rainy and cloudy, there really wasn't any reason to wear a summer hat, but hey why not do it for the fun of it? Rainy weather....Don't let it get you you and ...Have a wonderful weekend! Ne znam što je u tim šilericama ali ih obožavam, ...a vi? Volite li nositi ih?  Danas je bilo oblačno i kišno i zapravo nije postojao opravdani razlog za stavljanje slamnatog šešira na glavu, ali zašto da nas to spriječi?...Uglavnom, vrijeme je ovdje u Splitu kao i svudje čini se posve ludo....ali nedajte se smesti i uživajte u vikendu!

Today just a few photos...I've picked up some new novels from the library the other day and with all this rain we've been having, they will sure come in handy...I wonder how long will these rainy days last... Danas samo par fotografija snimljenih prije ovih kiša, na povratku iz knjižnice, a romani će mi dobro doći jer kiša ne prestaje...pitam se koliko će trajat ovi kišni dani...

Yesterday I went to visit a few people that live near Mostar and being a perfect spring day I had the chance to admire the mountains and take a few photographs. I wore a DIY shirt that I had hand painted a long time ago and I had also put some buttons on the collar this winter....and that makes me think... The DIY shirt was once actually just a plain white shirt and a part of Wind jet uniform. I worked for Wind jet years ago, well the airline that I worked for worked for them so...and that reminds me (today is my digression day) ...I support the strike of Croatia airlines flight attendants. They already work for practically nothing while the directors and managers (who knows how many of them there are) have high paychecks. It is important that the workers organizes strikes because when they're united the management has no option but to rethink their actions. Jučer sam posjetila par ljudi koji žive blizu Mostara i s obzirom na to da je bio savršeni proljetni d...
