Layering in Spring time....Slojevito odijevanje u proljeće....

Today I have prepared a transitional outfit for you. Considering how temperemental weather is these days, it seems appropriate to post a transitional outfit like this one. I know that Summer is approaching but when weather has a mind of its own, we must act accordingly. Anyway, I decided to wear a purple dress under a purple sweater. I always try to find ways to wear summer dresses during Spring. On top of that I wore a man's blazer that I originally ordered for my significant other. The only jewellery I wore is this lovely necklace I ordered ages ago from this site. I wear it quite often and I think this type of statement necklace really comes in handy. How was your weekend? Mine was fine, despite the stomach bug. Fingers crossed that it goes away soon. P.S. In case you're wondering about the location, it is once again Bunica recreational zone (which is located near Mostar, BIH).

Danas sam za vas pripremila prijelaznu odjevnu kombinaciju. S obzirom na to kako je promjenjivo vrijeme zadnjih dana, čini se prikladnim objaviti neku takvu kombinaciju. Znam da se ljeto bliži, ali kada vrijeme ima neki svoj plan, moramo mu se i mi prilagoditi. Uglavnom, obukla sam ljubičastu haljinu ispod ljubičastog džempera (uvijek se trudim naći način za nositi ljetne haljine u proljeće), a preko toga sam obukla muški sako koji sam zapravo naručila za svoju drugu polovicu. Jedini nakit koji sam nosila je ova divna ogrlica koju sam naručila davnih dana s ove stranice , stvarno je često nosim i čini mi se da takva ogrlica jako dobro dođe. Kakav je bio vaš vikend? Moj je bio dobar, unatoč probavnoj virozi za koju se nadam da će uskoro proći.  P.S. U slučaju da se pitate gdje sam, ovo je opet rekreacijska zona Bunica (koja smještena blizu Mostara, u Bosni i Hercegovini).

    Sviđa mi se kombinacija haljine i džempera, baš se savršeno nijanse slažu! :) Evo ovdje je taman naoblačilo, mislim da ću i ja ukoro morati navući nešto preko ovih kratkih rukava.

    Nadam se da si bolje. I mene je uhvatilo isto čim sam se vratila sa puta. Baš ume da bude mučno :/ Drago mi je da ti ipak nije pokvarilo vikend :)
    Ljubičasta je jedna od boja koja je često nepravedno zapostavljena pa sam se baš obradovala kada sam videla da je ona u glavnoj ulozi :) Ta pastelna nijansa džempera mi je jedna od omiljenih, a sam džamper kao da je došao u komlpetu sa haljinicom. Postigla si odličan kontrast sa čizmama i muškim sakoom, a oglica je ipak potvrdila tu neku ženstvenu notu. Sve u svemu, čista 10-ka ako se ja pitam :) I da, dvogled je šlag na torti! ;)

      hvala ti puno i meni se sviđa ova pastelna nijansa ljubičaste....viroza mi nije pokvarila vikend, ali mi je zato tjedan loše počeo, nikako da prođe:(

      Nadam se da si ti bolje....a dvogled uvijek nosimo sa nama.

    I like how you've mixed your wardrobe with a man's blazer, the contrast is so unusual and very unique to your personal style! I agree about the weather being temperamental by the way haha, it's all over the place in the UK this month as well. Roll on summer, right?! :)

    The weather in your place seems lovely and bright dear. Unlike here, it's been very hot lately so layering here must be difficult lol. Anyway, I really love layering. I think it is a wonderful way to make an outfit look instantly stylish. You look wonderful and I am happy that you have a wonderful week! :)

    I agree that layering is such an integral element to putting together outfits in the spring since the weather can greatly vary from cold to warm. The way you styled this look is nice since it mixes a warm sweater with a more summery looking floral skirt. Sorry to hear about your stomach bug. good that it's didn't ruin your weekend and hope you're feeling better now.

    Hey Ivana, we're also living that Spring feeling in Barcelona (even tho some we still have some rainy-cloudy-windy days) but they're also beautiful! But well, sometimes the weather is a liar haha and we adapt our wardrobe choices to it! I really like how you mixed up that sweater (I got one very very similar) with the necklace! It includes the warmy but with a touch of glam and elegance!

    Everything in that place looks really green, like an advertising! Hope you're feeling better with your stomach! :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

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!

 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
