braids (outfit post)/ pletenice (odjevna objava)




boots/čizme: Peko, puffer/ jakna: no name, bag/torba: vintage

Seeing these photos makes me almost regret I cut my hair. Almost. A bit of change is always good. Besides, I think it was this very photograph that got me thinking I need a haircut in the first place. My hair is still long enough for braiding, so I might wear this hairstyle again. Lately, I've been posting daily because I have a lot of previously prepared outfit posts and it makes sense to publish them before they become updated. Usually I like to mix things up a little when it comes to my blog, but according to statistics, outfits post are the most viewed posts on my blog, so I guess you (my readers) don't exactly mind. In addition, I honestly don't have the energy to prepare something else so I'll just continue posting old looks. Now, something about the outfit. For some reason, I find pointy shoes to be quite empowering. Why? Do I think they come in handy when it comes to self-defense? I hope it never comes to that, but they do make me feel action hero like. How do you like to wear your pointy shoes (or boots)? I think they look just fantastic with jeans, especially  with flare and bell bottom jeans. 

Sada kada vidim ove fotografije skoro mi je žao što sam se ošišala. Skoro jer je malo promjene uvijek dobro. Mislim da me je baš ova fotografija navela da pomislim da je vrijeme za šišanje. Kosa mi je još dovoljno duga za pletenice, pa možda opet budem probala ovu fizuru. U zadnje vrijeme objavljivala sam svaki dan zato jer imam puno pripremljenih odjevnih objava, a nekako mi ima smisla da ih objavim prije nego što više ne budu aktualne. Obično volim raznovrsnost na svom blogu, ali barem po statistikama, odjevne objave su uvijek najposjećenije, što valjda znači da vam baš i ne smetaju. Iskreno baš i nemam energije pripremati nešto novo pa nastavljam s starim kombinacijama. Sada, nešto o odjevnoj kombinaciji. Iz nekog razloga, špicoke na mene nekako djeluju osnažujuće. Zašto? Mislim li doista da bi mogle biti korisne kada je u pitanju samoobrana? Nadam se da to toga neće doći, ali u njima se osjećam kao akcijska junakinja. Kako vi volite nositi vaše špicoke (pa bile one čizme ili cipele)? Mislim da izgledaju sjajno s trapericama, posebno s zvonama (kako mi u Splitu zovemo traperice na zvono).

    You have such great hair, so shiny! I've always loved braids, I'm not good at braiding myself that's why I probably keep cutting my hair short.

    Kosa ti je kao sa neke reklame, predivna, zdrava! Mnogo volim pletenice ali nekako ih se ne setim baš često. Čizme su savršene i osećam se isto kao i ti kad nosim špicastu obuću. Stvarno je neverovatno koliko samo jedan detalj koji nosimo možemo da učini toliko toga, a kad je već tako, treba ih i iskoristiti ;)

    What beautiful hair you have, long or shorter it really is a fabulous colour and so healthy and shiny. I never get tired of outfit photos. xxx

    Your hair looks so healthy and shiny with the sun illuminating its beauty. And I totally get what you mean about seeing your own long hair photos and wanting a cut. That happened to me too. People always do lots of things to their long hair but I don't, except maybe self-curling so hacking it off doesn't matter much to me though I would miss the long curls.

    Pointy shoes reminds me a modern witch and a classy chic lady on the streets of New York/ Paris/ London... somehow.

    Sigurno je da ove lepotice mogu pomoći i pri samo odbrani, a povrh toga su i mnogo stajlish! Divna je i ta tvoja pufnasta krem jakna. Pletenice ti divno stoje, baš su romantične i šarmantne. Fantastičan look, pun pogodak :*

    Your hair was really long and pretty but change can definitely be a good thing and it will grow back anyway. At least you can still braid it :)

    these boots are looking great - specially i like this little heel.

    i´m sure to find a perfect combo to this boots is not very easy. cause i think they are not really "casual" - these boots are eye-catching. i would love it to wear a long skinny/tight pants over these boots - why? cause on that way, nobody would realise that these are boots. everybody would wondering what kind of shoe you wear. are this pumps? heels? or maybe booooootttttsssss??? i like this way to surprise people...;-)

    on the other hand, it´s a ittle bit of wasting to hide this boot like i said above. i think the right way is to put these boots in the spotlight and show this great pair of shoes to the people - like you do on your pics.

    but the hard part on this is to find the right pantyhose. on a black one, your black boots are (maybe) not good to see - cause both are black. i would prefer a bordeaux colored tights. i love this colour on tights, specially to black clothings.

    your thoughts on this?

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.

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
