You can keep your hat on (fashion illustration/ modna ilustracija)

kemijska i akrilne boje/ pencil and acrylic paints
Another fashion illustration inspired by summer that is almost here (and not by the song title I've adopted for the post title but I've loved that song ever since the dance scene in 9 1/2 weeks). The outfit I have proposed is a typical summer one...lovely top with stripes and a yellow skirt (a colour that screams summer for me)....an oversize bag for the beach is a must item for summer...and so is the hat. In fact, I think a good summer hat is really an essential summer piece. I didn't use to be so sensitive to the sun, but now that unfortunately I am, I've found that a summer hat really helps me to feel cool and avoid dizziness. I've put a little collage together, just to show you what I mean when I say that I prefer not to leave the house without a straw hat on those extra sunny days....and speaking of summer...what kind of hats do you like? I don't think I've ever spend more than a few euros on a summer hat and they have all served me just fine. It is wonderful how nowadays we have so many options, literally anywhere one can find great selection of hats...So girls, keep your hat on!

Još jedna modna ilustracija nadahnuta ljetom koje je skoro pa stiglo ( i ne naslovom pjesme koji sam navela u naslovu posta, ali doista volim tu pjesmu još otkako sam vidjela plesnu scenu u devet i pol tjedana.) Odjevna kombinaciju koju predlažem je tipična ljetna...divan top na prugice i žuta suknja (prava ljetna boja, zar ne?)...velika torba za plažu je nužna ljeti...a također i šešir. U stvari, mislim da je dobar šešir posve nužan ljeti. Prije nisam bila tako osjetljiva na sunce, ali otkako nažalost jesam, otkrila sam da mi nošenje šešira pomaže da izbjegnem pregrijavanje i ošamućenost. Sastavila sam i jedan mali kolaž, tek toliko da pokažem svoju ljubav prema šeširima ljeti...a govoreći o njima...kakve vi volite? Mislim da nisam nikad potrošila više od dvadesetak kuna na ljetni šešir i dosada su me svi dobro služili. Divno je što imamo toliko izbora, na svakom kutku može se pronaći toliko lijepih modela, tako da stvarno nije teško pronaći prikladan...djevojke, pronađite pravi za sebe i nosite ga.

    Ta pesma je stvarno nešto posebno i sad mi se već uvrtela u glavu :)
    Ne znam šta mi je lepše, da li crtež ili kolaž koji si napravila! Mnogo mnogo mi se sviđaju! :) I naravno šeširi, ranije ih nisam nikako volela, a od prošlog leta ih rado nosim. Tragam za nekim većim koji mi pritom neće padati na lice. Jeste da deluje glamurozno ali se baš i ne osećam tako kad ne vidim skoro ništa :D

      nađi onda neki s čvrstim tj. krutim obodom, taj sigurno neće padati na lice:) Meni se sviđaju i jedni i drugi, ali da malo je nezgodno kad ne vidiš gdje ideš:)

    I love that song too. I also love hats, but I don't feel too comfortable wearing wide brimmed hats. They really draw attention! But I understand how much protection hats offer from the sun!
    Cool illustration as always.

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

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

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

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
