Etno selo u izgradnji / Ethno village under construction










 











tutleneck: terranova, necklace: DIY, skirt: Bellissima (local BIH brand), booties: Cindy Craford, blazer/bag: no name


My third visit (link to my first visit) to this -still under construction- Ethno village near Međugorje took place last weekend.  I believe this place shall be marvelous once it is finally completed. Must have been designed by a pretty good architect, because it is feels so authentic.  It's withing walking distance of  popular Ethno village Herceg....but really more is better when it comes to ecological/ ethno villages, don't you agree? 

I don't have much to say about the outfit. I've accessorized this outfit with a necklace that I made myself and that I obviously like because I wear it all the time. The semi-plaid skirt from Bellissima is quite interesting.  For some reason I always pair it with this red blazer- the two seem to match well. What do you think? 

....and I want to take a moment to thank you for your lovely comments on my last post. Yes, embroidery takes both time and patience but it is worth it.

Moj treći posjet  prošlog vikenda etno selu blizu Međugorja koje je još u izgradnji me je učvrstio u uvjerenju da će odlično izgledati kada bude dovršeno jer zasada je veoma autentično. Jako je blizu popularnog Etno sela Herceg...ali doista više je bolje kada je riječ o eko/etno selima, zar ne?

 Nemam puno toga za reći o ovoj odjevnoj kombinaciji. Modni dodatak mi je ogrlica koju sam sada izradila i koja mi se očito sviđa jer  je stalno nosim. Djelomično plisirana suknja je iz Bellissime i jako je zanimljiva. Iz nekog razloga uvijek je uskladim sa ovim crvenim sakoem, čini mi se da se slažu. Što mislite?

  ....Zahvaljujem vam svima na lijepim komentarima na mom prošlom postu. Da, vezenje oduzima vrijeme i potrebno je strpljenje, ali na kraju se isplati.

    Dear Ivana, I use also my mobile as a mirror :) And what a beautiful midi skirt! I understand that you match this skirt always with a red blazer as it fits indeed really good! I can imagine that this village will be beautiful and I would also love to visit it. Due to the reason I fear I won't come in the next time in your beautiful country I thank you for the wonderful pictures. Wish you a happy rest of the weekend!

    Carmen, Carmen:) This is the first impression which you've produced on me, since I saw those wonderful photographs of you, Ivana. You look absolutely fantastic in red, those items fit you perfectly well. Your hand made necklace is also wonderful, it's hard not to notice it!
    I love visiting such places as this Ethno village, hope it will be finished as soon as possible and you will share some other snapshots of it with us. The landscape is truly amazing!
    Have a wonderful day ahead!

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 ...

VISIT SINJ (CROATIA) WITH ME! EXPLORE THE DALMATIAN HIGHLANDS!

Image
Hello readers and fellow bloggers! Regular readers of my blog will know that I'm Dalmatian and ' parce mihi Domine,' (as St. Jerome's supposedly used to pray). Dalmatia is one of four historical Croatian regions. When we're talking about coastal regions in Croatia, there are only two: Istria and Dalmatia. Occupying the majority of Croatian seaside, Dalmatia is extremely popular with tourists. Dalmatian coast is quite long, including hundreds of islands, and running from Zadar in the north do Dubrovnik to the south.  However, there's more to Dalmatia than its seaside and islands.  I'm from the seaside myself, a proper sea child and all,  but I love the Dalmatian Highlands. Rich in history and culture, Dalmatia Highlands are unique in many ways. From culinary delicacies to fascinating traditions, from untouched nature to picturesque towns and villages, you'll find much to admire here. Have I blogged about it before? I certainly did. I blogged about the Gr...

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...

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 ...

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...

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...
