My new creation and restaurant recommendation / moja nova kreacija i preporuka restorana

Lately I've been trying to make post titles as descriptive as possible. Just to let you know what you can expect. :):):) What do I mean when I say 'my new creation' you may ask? My new creation is this necklace. I use to make all kinds of jewellery pieces but for the last few years I've been more focused on making necklaces. I made a lot of necklaces like this one, if you want to see more you can check out these old posts ( here,  here, here, and here). All you need for this DIY is faux leather, satin cord and rhinestones. I wouldn't call this DIY a difficult one. However, it does take some time and it requires having at least basic sewing skill. How do you like my new necklace? Now, about the outfit. I wore it for lunch with my husband. Speaking of which, I would like to make a little restaurant recommendation. What restaurant do I recommend today? Well, this one. It is called Stefanijo setalište and it is located in one of my favourite streets in Mostar city. If you want to know how this place got its name or the story behind these trees feel free to check it out in my old post.

U zadnje vrijeme trudim se da bi naslovi objava budu što više opisni, tako da znate što vas očekuje. :):) :) Što mislim kada kažem "moja nova kreacija"? Moja nova kreacija je ova ogrlica. Prije sam pravila svakakav nakit, ali zadnjih godina najviše sam koncentrirana na ogrlice. Napravila sam puno ogrlica poput ove, želite li ih još vidjeti možete pogledati neke stare objave ( npr. ovdje, ovdje, ovdje i ovdje). Sve što vam treba za ovaj napravi sam projekt je eko koža, satenska traka i cikloni. Ne bi ovaj projekt nazvala teškim, ali treba imati barem osnovne vještine šivanja i oduzima dosta vremena. Kako vam se sviđa moja nova ogrlica?  Sada, što se tiče odjevne kombinacije. Nosila sam je za ručak s mužem. Kada sam već kod te teme, htjela bi vam preporučiti restoran Štefanijino šetalište koji je smješten u jednoj od mojih omiljenih ulica u Mostaru. Želite li znati kako je dobio to ime, povijest ove ulice i priču ovih prekrasnih stabala, pročitajte ovu objavu.

    Prvo, jako mi se sviđa outfit, a ova divna ogrlica ga je baš podigla, taman koliko treba. Sjedi pet od mene. ;)
    Drugo, upravo si odredila što ću imati danas za ručak...dobro, možda se ne mogu zaletjeti do Štefanijinog šetališta, koje baš izgleda kao ugodno mjesto za miran ručak, jedna pizza može biti smazana. =:D

    That huge tree looks amazing (the botanist speaking)! I really like your DIY necklaces, they always make such a statement. I personally feel that wearing something you have made yourself is always far more special than simply putting on something store-bought! I wish I would make more time for that kind of thing but with a full-time job time is always the issue.
    Hope you have a great day!

    Ogrlica je prelepa i baš se lepo ističe sa tamnijom kombinacijom poput te, a ne sumnjam da će odlično izgledati i uz svetlije boje i letnje kombinacije :) Sad sam podsetila i te starije objave i ako se ikada nađem u Mostaru, definitivno ću posetiti to mesto. Hrana izgleda toliko primamljivo i baš otvara apetit :)

      hvala draga:) da, svugdje u Mostaru su restorani odlični, općenito u BIH je hrana po restoranima dosta povoljna i ukusna...u Hrvatskoj isto ima sjajnih restorana, ali su cijene malo poveće, mada i ovdje se nađe nekih dobrih ponuda, a ima i puno riblje ponude:).

    I love the idea of your new hobby, Ivana! There is something very creative and special about making your own jewellery. :) I've never thought of doing that myself, but it could be a good thing to get into! I love the look of that restaurant by the way - it looks so peaceful and lovely, and as a pizza-addict I definitely approve of your menu choices, haha! :) <3 x x

Čak mije i friz onako malo azijski i super mi ide uz tebe! Pizza je uvijek njam, a ova tvoja mi izgleda prefino! :)

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

Image
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
