Split city (outfit post)/ Split (odjevna kombinacija)



















Again I'm posting old photos, in this case beach photos from the last summer (this year my health was so-so which resulted in almost no beach days). Nevertheless, I do really like these photographs so I've decided this is as good time as any to share them. Obviously this is a beach outfit (as you can guess from neon orange bikini straps) but this vintage LBD has served me well many times. In fact it has been washed so many times it is kind of changing its colour from black to dark grey.


Great thing about Split is that you don't have to leave the city in order to find a nice beach. All the ones in the city are really lovely and the sea is always so clean.  Still, if you want absolute piece and quiet, choosing one of Croatian islands would be the right thing to do.However, if you like cities (and some people cannot do without them), remember that there are cities that have managed to find the balance between the natural and modern....and can provide you both with the advantages of urban and natural life. Vacationing in the city is actually not a bad idea. I wouldn't complain at all if I had spend my summer in Split. This summer it was impossible because I had too many things to do, but maybe next one?

 Ponovno objavljujem stare fotografije, ovoga puta prošlogodišnje fotografije sa plaže  (ove godine mi zdravlje nije bilo baš najbolje pa i nisam provela puno dana na plaži). Ipak, ove fotografije mi se sviđaju pa zašto ih ne bih podijelila? Očito je ovo kombinacija sa plažu (naračaste trake bikinija vire), ali ova nasljeđena crna haljinica često mi je dobro poslužila. U stvari oprana je toliko puta da je sada više tamno siva nego crna.

 Odlična stvar kod Splita je da ne morate otići iz grada da biste našli dobru plažu. Sve plaže u gradu su stvarno pristojne i more je uvijek čisto. No, ako želite apsolutni mir najbolje otići do nekog otoka. Međutim ako želite biti u gradu (a neki ljudi ne mogu bez gradova) zapamtite da ima gradova koji su uspjeli zadržati ravnotežu između prirodnog i modernog...i mogu vam pružiti i prednosti urbanog i prirodnog života. Mislim da ljetovanje u gradu nije uopće tako loše stvar, ne bih se nimalo bunila da sam ovo ljeto mogla ljetovati u Splitu, ali imam svakakvih nekakvih obaveza pa ništa od toga za sada. Možda iduće ljeto?

    Mnogo mi se ide na hrvatsko primorje ali nekako nikako da stigne na red. Sigurna sam da je Split prelep i još sa takvom plažom gde ćeš bolje ;)
    Mnogo si slatka, kao i ta haljinica i morska frizura ;)

      hvala...ove godine i ja sam ostala malo željna primorja... nekad mi se čini da bi išla na sto mjesta odjednom, a ništa da dođe na red. Zašto još nisu izmislili transportaciju pa da se možemo svi naći na kavi u par sekunda?:)

    Draga moja Ivana. Divne su ti slike! Ti si meni preslatka! Haljina je divna, ja obozavam haljine sa otvorenim ledjima i valjda mi je zato i extra ta slika gde se to i vidi. Sve je super! Nekada davno bila sam u Splitu...lep grad. I hvala ti sto uvek detaljno i lepo prokomentarises na mom blogu, a Barbikinu haljinicu ipak nisam ja sila ali bi je rado nosila!

      i meni su drage haljine za otvorenim leđima...možda bi se trebala ohrabriti i sašiti jednu. U zadnje vrijeme samo šijem ogrlice od eko kože, nešto sam se sad toga uhvatila.
      Hvala na kometaru:)

    I don't know what exactly is going on with you now, but I really hope that your health will be improved and everything will be alright. So next year you will have a lot of chances to visit beach and have some pleasant time on the sea shore. Those pictures are really sweet and beautiful, I love to see you smiling:) You are glowing with kindness and natural beauty, seriously.

    Super kombinacija- uvek je bolje baciti na sebe neku haljinu (preko kupaći kostim), a ne hlače i majica kao kod mene :P Plaža izgleda odlićno, a uopšte nema puno ljudi (bar kad ste to slikali). Da ne govorim o moru, kao da me zove- tako prazno izgleda ;) xx Maja

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 ...

KRAVICE WATERFALLS (TOP DESTINATIONS IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA) / Slapovi Kravice

KRAVICA WATERFALL I will never forget visiting Kravice waterfalls for the first time. It was an absolutely magical experience.  The Kravica waterfall is sometimes described as a pearl of Herzegovina. It's also called oasis in stone. One can think of many names for it, but the best thing is to go there and see for itself. It's definitely one of the great beautifies of the Herzegovinian landscape. Where can you find this stunning natural waterfall? It's located on the Trebizat River, 7 km away from Ljubuski.  This place of beauty was created by the Trebizat River!

Maxi dress (outfit post) / Duga haljina (odjevna objava)

Image
What says summer more than a maxi dress? You might have another clothing item in mind, but there is no disputing the fact that a nice summer maxi dress is one of the most practical choices when the days get warmer. Besides offering protection from the sun, a good summer maxi dress is easy to layer (and hence to dress up and down) and serves like an infusion of style and effortless chic. In other words.....What is there not to love?  Što više kaže ljeto od duge haljine? Možda imate neki drugi odjevni predmet na pameti, ali ne može se osporiti da je lijepa ljetna duga haljina jedan od najpraktičnijih izbora kada dana postanu topliji. Osim što nam nudi zaštitu od sunca, dobra ljetna haljina se lako nadograđuje (i nosi u dotjeranim i ležernim kombinacijama), a služi kao prava infuzija stila i onog dojma da se niste trudili. Drugim riječima....Što tu ne voljeti? shoes, dress: no name, bag: borsa, shirt:vintage Have you found your ideal summer dress yet? I got t...

WHAT I WORE IN MOSTAR FOR WONDERFULLY WARM AND SUNNY AUTUMN DAYS

Image
 Hello readers and fellow bloggers! Happy Sunday! In this post, I'll share three warm Autumn outfits I wore for strolling around Mostar city. Today is quite cold and cloudy for our Mediterranean standards, so the plan is to stay in and catch up with blogging. I've had a pretty eventful weekend so far. Weekend sometimes seem to just fly by, don't they? We often try to make up for the things we didn't do during the week, especially us ladies. We try to fit in all in- to clean the house, do chores and that sort of things. Sometimes weekends can even be tiring. There are conferences and meetings to attend. Learning how to shut down and rest properly can be a challenge. Life gets busy, and sometimes the older we get, the more busy it becomes. That's why I'm so grateful for these little outings I do, being a tourist in my own city and country- that sort of thing. I sometimes feel like I mastered sustainable and local travel . The challenge is just finding the time to ...

BURGUNDY AND YELLOW OUTFIT IN SPLIT CITY

Image
 Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll show you an autumn outfit I wore for a seaside stroll with my family in Split city, Croatia. This outfit is another example of me shopping my closet, so you can expect the sustainable fashion files to kick in any minute. This was a very comfortable outfit to wear that also felt very energizing. Probably it was due to colour therapy and all that. Wearing colours often makes me feel better. Mustard yellow and burgundy are the main colours in this look, and I do love these colours together. I dressed in layers, for it was quite windy and fresh despite the warm sun.  As regular readers of my blog know, Split is my home city, and you can find me there very often. In fact, you could say that I live between Split and Mostar. I love Mostar, but I do miss the sea. Is there anything better than seaside in Autumn and Winter? I always love being near the sea, but during the Autumn and Winter when there are hardly any people aroun...

30 PLUS WAYS TO WEAR AN OLIVE BLAZER (SUSTAINABLE FASHION FILES)

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, we'll talk some more about  sustainable fashion. As I believe the best way to learn is through example, so I'll show you multiple ways how to style an olive green blazer. On this little digital place to call my own, I love to show you how you can be more sustainable by shopping your closet. The more you love items in your closet and the better care you take of your clothes, you easier you'll find it to shop your closet. So, that's something to keep in mind! Besides linking up outfits with this blazer, I'll link up multiple ways to wear other items in my closet. As always, there will be fun collages to help you see the vision- how chic and fun restyling items can be! Olive green can be somewhat of an underrated colour, even if it is trending at the moment. For Autumn/Winter 2024/2025, tonal dressing in olive greens and khakis is right on trend. I'm convinced that when styled right, olive green can look good wi...
