New bridge Mostar (outfit post)/ Novi most Mostar (odjevna kombinacija)

It was just a walk. I wore the first thing that came to my mind. I didn't wear any make up. The weather was gloomy, cloudy and rainy. We didn't plan to take any photographs. However, now I'm happy we did. Perhaps these are one of my favourite photographs ever. When the sun started setting, I was reminded of how magical Mostar can be in Autumn....with its gold trees and many rivers, with its unbelievably warm days and cold evening, with its ducks playing in Neretva....while I was watching them from this new bridge (still under construction) and as the sun made its appearance only a few moments before it set under the hills, I realized why I love Autumn so much. It is a season of change, but that change is as beautiful as it can possibly be. Now, I only need to remember what I like about Winter....and build myself a bridge towards that new season. What do you like about Winter? Are you ready for it?

Bila je to samo šetnja. Obukla sam prvo što mi je došlo pod ruku i nisam se šminkala. Vrijeme je bilo sivo, oblačno i kišno. Nismo planirali ništa slikati. No, sada mi je drago da jesmo. Možda su mi ovo i jedne od najdražih fotografija dosada. Kada je sunce počelo zalaziti, podsjetila sam se kako čaroban Mostar može biti u jesen...sa svojim zlatnim drvećem i brojnim rijekama, sa svojim nevjerojatno toplim danima i ledenim predvečerjima, sa svojim patkama koje se igraju u Neretvi....dok sam ih gledala s novog mosta koji je još u izgradnji, a sunce se pojavilo malo prije nego što je zašlo iza brežuljaka, shvatila sam zašto tako volim jesen...to je vrijeme promjene, ali promjene koja ne može biti ljepša...sada se samo moram sjetiti zašto volim zimu...i izgraditi si most prema tom godišnjem dobu....Što vi volite kad je u pitanju zima i jeste li za nju spremni?

I've blogged about Mostar many times on my post. If you want to see more of this city, feel free to visit my old posts, for example this one where I explain the magic of Neretva river to you.






What can I say about Mostar that I haven't said already? 

This historical city is the second largest city in Bosnia and Herzegovina, second only to Sarajevo. Being the the largest city in the Herzegovina region, Mostar is the natural business, administrative, cultural, educational and tourist centre of the Herzegovina region. 

Many people visit this beautiful city for a variety of river. Besides being absolutely stunning, Mostar is also know for a number of historical sites and beautiful buildings!




Thank you for visiting!

  8. Mislim da mi je ovo jedan od tvojih najdražih jesenskih look-ova i baš mi je drago što si ga odlučila zabilježiti :)
    Ja se isto moram podsjetiti zašto volim zimu jer mi ova hladnoća zapravo uopće ne paše i ništa mi se ne da, najrađe bi samo sjedila zamotana u dekicu i čekala da dođe proljeće.

  29. Razumem zašto su ti ove slike toliko drage jer su stvarno predivno ispale. Cela atmosfera, mesto, ti tako divna i nasmejana, pa te čarapice. Divno je sve i nekako mi je podiglo raspoloženje :) Ja sam taman zavolela jesen a sa zimom ne znam šta ću. Ne podnosim hladnoću, kratke dane, ledeni vetar, slojeve odeće i to što čim izađem, boli me glava, peku oči... Jedino što volim kod zime je ušukana atmosfera kod kuće ili negde unutra. I more volim zimi jer mi je tad nekako posebno lepo. Ovo ostalo bih najrađe zaobišla da mogu :)

  36. The Fall in your country is stunning, Ivana, I really like each photo, because you're really photogenic, my dear :) What about your post, I like warm Autumn, when you can go out for a long walk, but honestly, I don't like Winter, because I rather warm than cold in general :) But ok, I have to admit that the world under a little bit of snow has something special :) Futhermore, your outfit is great, especially I love your coat, it looks perfect for the Fall, dear!

  39. Nekad se upravo najbolje stvari dese neplanirano i kad se najmanje nadamo, pa tako i ovaj tvoj post i naprosto predivne slike na kojima si tako simpatična i opuštena :) Jako mi je drago da su ti se ajmo reć planovi izjalovili ;) Kombinacija mi je jedna od tvojih najdražih, najlonke su me oduševile!
    Meni ovo vrijeme definitivno više paše od onih vrućina i evo upravo sam stigla s posla pomalo zaleđena, ali sretna sam, omotana u mekanu dekicu i pijem vruću kavu, gledam već pomalo okićene izloge grada, čekam da počnu svjetlucati bijele pahuljice i da krene sva ona blagdanska euforija i božićne pjesmice.. i meni više ništa ne treba :) (osim da su dani bar malo duži, to bi bilo lijepo, ali što ćeš.. ;)
