Outfit of the day (tartan blazer with gold earrings and a silver blouse)/ Današnje ruho (karirani blajzer sa zlatnim naušnicama i srebrnom bluzom)

Green with a touch of gold and silver...Perhaps I'm trying to mimic Autumn. Perhaps that is what we all do...Trying to keep up with the beauty of nature and the mysterious way it changes every seasons. Perhaps we even envy the nature for its eternal youth....forgetting that we're its part.

This outfit is quite similar to my  first November look (same dress and blouse). Wearing a summer dress in Autumn? Nothing I haven't done before. All it takes is a bit of layering....

Zelena sa dodatkom zlatne i srebrne...možda pokušavam oponašati jesen. Možda to svi radimo...pokušavamo držati korak sa ljepotom prirode i misterioznim načinom na koji se mijenja svake sezone. Možda čak i zavidimo prirodi na njenoj vječnoj mladosti..zaboravljajući da smo njen dio.

Odjevna kombinacija je dosta slična mojoj prvoj kombinaciji ovog studenog (ista haljina i bluza). Nošenje ljetne haljine u jesen? Ništa novo za mene. Sve što je potrebno je malo slojevitog odjevanja...

Coat/ Kaput: Uzor, Dress/ Haljina: Moda in, Torba/Bag: vintage, Shoes/ cipele: Peko+ DIY
 


























BLOG UPDATE 2024

A VISIT  FROM THE FUTURE

Having a  blog allows you to travel in time. That is what I will do here. This post was originally published in 2014, approximately 10 years from now. So, why is future Ivana returning to this post? It's to talk about fashion suitability.

It just occurred to me that someone might visit this post and miss one aspect of fashion blogging that is important to me, linking up different ways to wear a clothing item in order to promote fashion sustainability. 

The future Ivana is here to tell you that she still owns and wears all the items you see in this post. If you don't believe me, you're welcome to visit my newer posts.

  42. Jennifer Behrs23 November 2015 at 04:12

    gosh, what a changeable outfit. with your closed blazer, i thought you wearing a skirt. This kind and how you wear your scarf is just stunning!!! this is for me a really perfect kind of an business outfit - the right way to shine on an office job!!!

    then i saw a few pics bellow, that is not a skirt, this is a dress - and what a beauty...! Perfect on this are your shoes. i like specially this little heel (not to high) - i know we both love it to wear heels, but sometimes there are other kinds of shoes look better on a outfit. and here you wear the RIGHT ONE!!!

    Furthermore, i think there is just one way to find (and wear) the perfect tights: a black opaque pantyhose. i think no other colour looks better on this outfit.

    the only thing i´m wondering is your lipstick/gloss: red looks great and breaks out of this green effect your clothings. but i think it´s even a good way, to lay off a darker lipstick colour - to keep your darker colourtone from your clothings.

    What you think?

    This is a really wonderful outfit Ivana!!!

    Bye.

      interesting suggestion! Yes, I think that a darker lipstick would look great with this outfit. Furthermore, dark lipsticks are perfect for Autumn.

      If you remember, I wore this green dress a lot of times on my blog, but this is one of my favourite combinations. I really like how this green dress looks when I wear this silk shirt under it.

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

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

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

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

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

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
