Cherry dress and cat ears / haljna s uzorkom trešnje i mačje uši (Potoci, Bijelo polje, Mostar, BIH)


One of the things that I love about Mostar is that are so many amazing locations nearby. Take for example Potoci (literally translated it means Streams), a little village in vicinity of Mostar. It is such a lovely place to go for a stroll and breathe in some fresh and unpolutted air.  Last time I posted about Potoci, Bijelo polje near Mostar (here), some of you asked me about the church you could see in the background. So, today I'll be showing you a closer view of this church and its surroundings. All of these images were taken in front of the church of The Most Holy Heart of Jesus in Potoci, Bijelo polje (Bosnia and Herzegovina).  Now, about the outfit. The hair decoration in my hair is DIY. You had the change of seeing it on my blog here , here and here but in those post I wore it as a necklace.  I got this dress from dresslink ages ago and I'm still not bored of it. I must be a sucker for cherry print. Have a nice day everyone!

Jedna od stvari koje volim kod Mostara je to što ima toliko nevjerojatnih mjesta u blizini, nrp. Potoci, malo selo u blitini Mostara. To je tako lijepo mjesto za prošetati i udahnuti malo svježega i nezagađenoga zraka. Zadnji put (ovdje) kada sam objavljivala o Potocima (Bijelo polje pored Mostara),  neki od vas su me pitali o crkvi koja se vidjela u pozadini pa vam danas pokazujem ovo područje izbliza. Sve su ove fotografije uslikane ispred i u blizini crkve Presvetoga Srca Isusova, Potoci, Bijelo polje (BIH). Sada što se tiče odjevne kombinacije. Ukras u kosi je moja izrada. Imali ste ga prilike vidjeti na blogu i prije (ovdje, ovdje, ovdje) ali dosada sam ga nosila kao ogrlicu. Ovu haljinu sam davno dobila od dresslinka i još uvijek mi nije dosadila. Valjda zato jer volim uzorak trešnje. Ugodan dan vam svima želim!

    Ah, sto volim ovu tvoju haljinicu! Tako je lepa i damska, sto sam ti verovatno vec i pisala u nekom ranijem postu. Svidja mi i sto ne mora nuzno biti letnja, vec ovako uz carape moze biti i sjajan komad u jesenjim danima.

    Dear Ivana, you convinced me again that it has indeed its advantages to live in Mostar! Thanks for sharing all the beautiful pictures and yes, this church is really beautiful. And no wonder you are still not bored about this super lovely summer dress with the cherries as it is definitely such a cute piece and suits you very well. And at the moment it is even the time of cherries (at least in Bavaria) so it is additional the perfect dress for this season! You look beautiful and sweet in this dress. Hopefully you enjoyed the weekend so far <3

    You live in such a beautiful place. So full of nature, greenery and water! We lack these stuff here in our tiny city state. We do have reservoirs, conserved nature reserves and other man-made parks in our highly urbanised country. I would love to see streams and greenery everywhere I go and the weather where you are always looks so good!

    I really enjoy getting to know about all the charming village and towns in Mostar through your posts about them. Potoci is such a meaningful name. That dress has to be one of my favorites of yours as I love a good cherry motif.

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 ...

VISIT SINJ (CROATIA) WITH ME! EXPLORE THE DALMATIAN HIGHLANDS!

Image
Hello readers and fellow bloggers! Regular readers of my blog will know that I'm Dalmatian and ' parce mihi Domine,' (as St. Jerome's supposedly used to pray). Dalmatia is one of four historical Croatian regions. When we're talking about coastal regions in Croatia, there are only two: Istria and Dalmatia. Occupying the majority of Croatian seaside, Dalmatia is extremely popular with tourists. Dalmatian coast is quite long, including hundreds of islands, and running from Zadar in the north do Dubrovnik to the south.  However, there's more to Dalmatia than its seaside and islands.  I'm from the seaside myself, a proper sea child and all,  but I love the Dalmatian Highlands. Rich in history and culture, Dalmatia Highlands are unique in many ways. From culinary delicacies to fascinating traditions, from untouched nature to picturesque towns and villages, you'll find much to admire here. Have I blogged about it before? I certainly did. I blogged about the Gr...

WHAT I WORE IN MOSTAR FOR WONDERFULLY WARM AND SUNNY AUTUMN DAYS

Image
 Hello readers and fellow bloggers! Happy Sunday! In this post, I'll share three warm Autumn outfits I wore for strolling around Mostar city. Today is quite cold and cloudy for our Mediterranean standards, so the plan is to stay in and catch up with blogging. I've had a pretty eventful weekend so far. Weekend sometimes seem to just fly by, don't they? We often try to make up for the things we didn't do during the week, especially us ladies. We try to fit in all in- to clean the house, do chores and that sort of things. Sometimes weekends can even be tiring. There are conferences and meetings to attend. Learning how to shut down and rest properly can be a challenge. Life gets busy, and sometimes the older we get, the more busy it becomes. That's why I'm so grateful for these little outings I do, being a tourist in my own city and country- that sort of thing. I sometimes feel like I mastered sustainable and local travel . The challenge is just finding the time to ...

BURGUNDY AND YELLOW OUTFIT IN SPLIT CITY

Image
 Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll show you an autumn outfit I wore for a seaside stroll with my family in Split city, Croatia. This outfit is another example of me shopping my closet, so you can expect the sustainable fashion files to kick in any minute. This was a very comfortable outfit to wear that also felt very energizing. Probably it was due to colour therapy and all that. Wearing colours often makes me feel better. Mustard yellow and burgundy are the main colours in this look, and I do love these colours together. I dressed in layers, for it was quite windy and fresh despite the warm sun.  As regular readers of my blog know, Split is my home city, and you can find me there very often. In fact, you could say that I live between Split and Mostar. I love Mostar, but I do miss the sea. Is there anything better than seaside in Autumn and Winter? I always love being near the sea, but during the Autumn and Winter when there are hardly any people aroun...

30 PLUS WAYS TO WEAR AN OLIVE BLAZER (SUSTAINABLE FASHION FILES)

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, we'll talk some more about  sustainable fashion. As I believe the best way to learn is through example, so I'll show you multiple ways how to style an olive green blazer. On this little digital place to call my own, I love to show you how you can be more sustainable by shopping your closet. The more you love items in your closet and the better care you take of your clothes, you easier you'll find it to shop your closet. So, that's something to keep in mind! Besides linking up outfits with this blazer, I'll link up multiple ways to wear other items in my closet. As always, there will be fun collages to help you see the vision- how chic and fun restyling items can be! Olive green can be somewhat of an underrated colour, even if it is trending at the moment. For Autumn/Winter 2024/2025, tonal dressing in olive greens and khakis is right on trend. I'm convinced that when styled right, olive green can look good wi...

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...
