    Baš sam htela napisati: 'Ovo izgleda kao Toskana!' Pa onda vidim pravu sliku pejzaža- pa i slići na prelepu Toskanu ;) xx Maja

    you did a fabulous job with the painting. the colors are so beautiful.

    regarding your question about the products I use for my lips: 1. i use a lip scrub: LUSH (bubblegum) or FRESH 2. I swear by FRESH's Lip Balms (they are the best). I'll leave a couple of links for you below.

    Slika izgleda zaista krasno. Ljubomorna sam na svakog ko je sposoban nešto naslikati kistom, jer ja slikam, a i crtam, poput djeteta u vrtiću.

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 ...

Let there be colour! (outfit post) / Neka bude boja (odjevna kombinacija)

Image
It was over 40 degrees Celsius (that's over 100 Fahrenheit) when these photographs were taken. Seriously! I'm obviously a desert type when I'm able to enjoy being out at midday in a city that is practically an oven. If you did not know Mostar city is surrounded by mountains and hills which pretty much turns it into an urban oven. Yes, this city is a champion of unbelievably high temperatures during the Summer. So, this hat was as much a necessity as a fashion statement. Wearing a hat when temperature is over 100 Fahrenheit is a sound idea, believe me. Speaking of Fahrenheits,  have you read  Fahrenheit 451  by Ray Bradbury? You should, you know, it really is a brilliant dystopian novel. I find it uncanny how much some writers were able to guess the future, down to minute details. Every time when I ponder about our modern society problems and questionable practices, I think of this novel and I realize I'm not crazy. Some things are just wrong and that's the way it...

THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO 2024 MOVIE REVIEW

Image
In this post, I'll share with you a review of  The Count of Monte Cristo.  I don't go to theatre/movies often. In fact, years have been known to pass without me seeing a film on the big screen. However, when I saw the poster for the new 2024  The Count of Monte Cristo movie, I knew I simply had to go.  I really wanted to see this film, and I didn't even read the reviews or watch the trailer for it. I wasn't even intimidated by the fact it is a three hours long. Afterall, it's based on a rather long novel, so I didn't expect it to be short.  Now, I usually review books on my blog, not movies. However, perhaps this film review won't come as a surprise to you. I don't know if you have noticed, but I included a few Monte Cristo quotes in my last post .  So, you could say this Monte Cristo post was sort of teased or at least expected.  In the post preceding that one, I mentioned how much I like French movies and recommended one of them-  The Odyssey ...

REPAINTING AND REPAIRING AN OIL ON CANVAS, A PAINTING OF ASSISI ( ITALY)

Image
 Hello there! Today I'll share with you a repainted oil painting inspired by a souvenir I picked up in Assisi , Italy (also here ). I visited Assisi, a hometown of Saint Francis back in 2013. It took me only a day to paint the original painting in 2014 (see the post here)  but it took me four days to repaint it this August- including one afternoon spent crying because I was exhausted by the effort.  I'm still not sure I'm 100 % finished. Sometimes I  miss the days before I started taking art classes because I was much less critical of my work back then and seemed to enjoy the process more.  Not that I'm complaining. I'm very grateful that I have the means to pursue art more seriously and learn more about different mediums. That certainly wasn't always the case. While it is true that it feels like more work nowadays, I can also see the progress and that's obviously rewarding. I'm happy that it is possible for me to create paintings, especially these kind ...

The importance of shoes (WIWT) / Važnost cipela ( i što sam danas nosila)

Image
 If you change a pair of shoes, you have changed the whole outfit. Wear sneakers to dress an outfit down, but wear elegant shoes to dress it up. Sometimes it is as simple as that. This is what I wore today. It was a sunny and beautiful day , so I wanted to take advatage of it to show you more ways to style these pants . Thanks to my photographer, I managed to do it.  Promijenite li par cipela, promijenili ste cijelu odjevnu kombinaciju. Nosite tenisice da biste kombinaciju učinili ležernijom, a  elegantne cipele da je učinite dotjeranom. Ponekad je tako jednostavno. Ovo sam danas nosila. Bio je sunčan i divan dan, pa sam ga htjela iskoristiti da vam pokažem još načina za nositi ove hlače . Zahvaljujući svom fotografu, to sam i uspjela.  shirt/ košulja: no name, nije markirana pants/ hlače:  CNdirect   minibag/ torba:  Dresslink  shoes/ cipele: no name, nije markirano HOW TO WALK ON ROCKY TERRAIN IN PLATFORM STIL...
