One colourful dress is all I need (outfit post)/ jedna šarena haljina je sve što mi treba (odjevna objava)


Lots of outfits didn't make the cut in May because I have been so obsessed with DIY projects, but there are some that I want to share despite the fact the photographs themselves were taken with a smart phone(because the cam isn't always at hand), so I'll just go ahead with it if you don't mind;) I've also thrown in a bit of my photography, because this city is so amazingly photogenic and I can never get enough of it.

Puno odjevnih kombinacija nije uvršteno nigdje ovog svibnja, jednostavno jer sam bila posve zaokupljena pa skoro i opsjednuta napravi sam projektima, ali ipak neke želim podijeliti unatoč činjenici da su uslikani smartphonom (jer kamera nije uvijek pri ruci) pa će to tako i biti, ako nemate ništa protiv;) Ubacila sam i neke svoje fotografije jer je ovaj grad strašno fotogeničan i nikad mi ga nije dosta.

scarf (in my hair) avon, white blazer: vintage, dress: no name, shoes: Peko, bag: second hand



rubac u kosi: avon, haljina: nije markirana, bijeli sako: vintage, torba: second hand, cipele: peko 



what's in the box? a new pair of stilettos that will be shown soon;)
što je u kutiji? novi taki (u prijevodu štikle) koje ću uskoro nositi


Izložba manje poznatih dalmatinskih slikara- jako zanimljivo
An exhibition of lesser known Dalmatian painters- very interesting




First things first. This lovely colourful dress was a gift from my significant other. I wasn't crazy about it but it has grown on me. Previously featured on blog here where I have styled it with a hand painted shirt and that infamous yellow bag.

Krenimo po redu. Šarena haljinica je dar od dragog, u početku nisam bila luda za njom, ali prirasla mi je srcu. Ispod slike je poveznica ako želite vidjeti kako sam je nosila prošlo ljeto uz ručno oslikanu košulju i onu moju famoznu žutu torbicu.
see outfit post here 

Another item I liked in this outfit of mine is this vintage white blazer, a gift from  a family member. truth be told it's much too big for me, but lately I've been into oversize clothes so I don't mind.  I'm prepared to wear clothes that doesn't fit but only if it is vintage, which in my case usually means a gift from some family member. It was previously featured on the blog here.

Još jedna stvar koja mi se svidjela kod ove kombinacije je ova jako stara bijela jaknica koju sam dobila na poklon od člana obitelji. Zapravo mi je prevelika, ali u zadnje vrijeme volim odjeću za broj veću, pa mi ne smeta. Spremna sam nositi odjeću koja mi ne pristaje posve, ali samo ako je vintage, a u mom slučaju vintage znači dar od nekog člana obitelji. Na blogu je bila objavljena ovdje.

    The city is so photogenic, indeed. I do love scrolling down the photographs which you take, it's always interesting to see the world around you with your eyes:) I'm visiting exhibitions from time to time too, but in my city it's ban to take pictures in most of museums, and even use cell phones. I have no idea why, but believe me, it's so:)
    I also like the way you look, that bright, radiant dress suits you nicely, and what is the most important thing that you feel so comfortable in it. I don't know how about you, I always feel myself much more confident when I'm wearing something what appeals to my heart a lot.

      yes, I feel much more confident when I'm wearing something I genuinely like. The same goes for seeing beautiful things.. just seeing them usually makes me feel better. Whether it is churches, buildings or ancient ruins, beautiful structures always inspire me.

    Ja isto nemam problema sa prevelikom odjećom, pogotovo ako je vintage u pitanju, ponekad često i namjerno uzmem neku majicu dva broja veću pa mi je onda fino kao haljinica i osjećam se slobodno u njoj :) Sviđa mi se marama u kosi i generalno čitav look, šareno i veselo, taman po mom guštu :D

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.

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

THE ANT AND THE GRASSHOPPER, A SHORT STORY BY W. SOMERSET MAUGHAM

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
