Fashion illustration of the day / Modna ilustracija dana

pencil sketch / skica olovkom

One of the trends that really resonates with me is the long vest. Ever since it made its appearance, I found it to be absolutely fascinating. I think this trend will be very present this Spring. Here is my fashion illustration that depicts a  girl wearing a long vest. She paired it with a yellow shirt and rolled up skinny jeans. I always loved the contrast between purple and yellow, so I added purple heels to finish this outfit. Some of my illustrations were featured by a fellow blogger ( link). Thank you +Leszek Wielgos 

Jedan od trendova koji mi se jako sviđa je dugi prsluk. Fascinira me od kada se pojavio. Mislim da će ovaj trend biti jako prisutan ovoga proljeća. Evo moje modne ilustracije koja prikazuje djevojku koja nosi dugi prsluk. Uskladila ga je s žutom košuljom i uskim zavrnutim trapericama. Uvijek mi se sviđao kontrast između žute  i narančaste, pa sam ovu kombinaciju završila s ljubičastim cipelama na petu. Neke od mojih ilustracija se mogu naći na ovom (poveznica) blogu.

    Ovom ilustracijom si prevazišla i samu sebe, čini mi se. Pokret, kosa, kombinacija, boje, celokupan utisak je fantastičan. Nemam reči, zaista <3

    I like the illustrations very much, dear Ivana, I always say - you are really very talented! Indeed, it is always like that - the fashion world announces the new trend and it really takes off one year later. I remember having bought a long vest in 2014, but only wore it in 2015. Now it will be good, because I will be "fashionable" :) in 2016. In fact, as I am short, I found it made me visually shorter, but people said it looked good... maybe I am too critical about myself! Will love to see you wearing a long vest soon! Hope you have a lovely weekend!

    Beautiful illustration! I love how you show it in the pencil and then coloured in. Those purple heels are beautiful. I love how they contrast with the yellow. I wish I could find them in real life.

    The long vest is such a cool trend. They never run out of fashion :) I like her hair so much, so bold and cool, and yellow and purple are a great combo.

    I love the look of long vests on others, but it's not something I can pull off easily being petite! I did just get a maxi cardigan last year which I thought wouldn't work for me but I ended up loving so who knows, maybe I just haven't found the right long vest yet? :)

    Dearest Ivana,
    I love long vests or chasubles too!
    I have shown here, for example, some outfits with my black Chasuble: http://rostrose.blogspot.co.at/2015/11/advent-und-ein-paar-outfit-spielereien.html
    And here with my self-painted silk long-vest:

    Long vests always seems extravagant and confidently. And this is just the way your painted women moves! Very pretty!
    Hugs, Traude

All your comments mean a lot to me, even the criticism. Naravno da mi puno znači što ste uzeli vrijeme da nešto napišete, pa makar to bila i kritika. Per me le vostre parole sono sempre preziose anche quando si tratta di critiche.

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

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!

 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
