What I wore today in Mostar (two oufits) / Što sam danas nosila u Mostaru (dvije kombinacije)

Hello everyone! How are you? Yesterday, I received a new package from CNdirect. Today I'm showing you two outfits featuring some of the items I got.  Both of these outfits I wore earlier today. I ordered two dresses in size XL( here and here) and I'm quite happy with them. Lately, I've been into oversized everything. In addition, I think this long cardi (here) was a good choice with both of the dresses. A women can't have enough of long cardigans! I find them to be quite practical and versatile. Plus, cardigans look great paired with dresses and jeans. What do you think about my outfits?

Zdravo svima! Kako ste? Jučer sam dobila novi paket od CNdirect stranice i danas ću vam pokazati dvije odjevne kombinacije s nekim od odjevnih komada koje sam dobila. Obje kombinacije sam nosila danas. Ove dvije haljine sam naručila u XL veličini i dosta sam zadovoljna s njima. U zadnje vrijeme sviđaju mi se stvari za broj veće. Mislim da je ovaj dugi kardigan bio dobar izbor uz obje haljine. Ženi nikad dosta dugih kardigana. Meni se oni čine jako praktični i svestrani, a uz to dobro izgledaju nošeni i s haljinama i s trapericama. Što vam se čini od ovih odjevnih kombinacija?

DIY NECKLACE WORN AS A CROWN - I designed and made this green necklace to match my designer prom dress many years ago. See this throwback  post to see my prom dress and the original form of this necklace.


The necklace was made from wire, Fimo and glass beads. The necklace was very loosely based on Tolkien's writing. I didn't base it specifically on any of the jewellery Tolkien's described in his book, but I was inspired by elven love for jewellery. 

“It is said by the Eldar that in water there lives yet the echo of the Music of the Ainur more than in any substance that is in this Earth; and many of the Children of Ilúvatar hearken still unsated to the voices of the Sea, and yet know not for what they listen.” 
 J.R.R. Tolkien, The Silmarillion

    Oh my word they are stunning. Especially the black one and yes babe, a woman can never ever have too many long cardigans. I am a firm believer in that. Perfect layering piece always. Your brown bag is so lovely. I saw a similar one but in a smaller size and not nearly as cute as yours. You are wearing these outfits, beautiful!

    Potpisujem konstataciju o kardiganima, nikada dosta a možeš ih nositi na sve i svašta. Obje su kombinacije odlične a prva haljina mi se posebno sviđa. Super mi je taj efekt kada su druge boje uz rub haljine. Nije da tebi takvo što treba ali izgleda zanimljivo i meni je baš fora. Jako lijepo!

    i love both styles on you. but my real eyecatcher are your tights. these simple dark colour is a PERFECT (!!!!!) match to your both clothings styles. i think another tight with a other colour would maybe not the right thing.

    good job my dear.

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

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

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
