How to spice up an outfit with a scarf? (...and revisiting Medugorje) Kako začiniti odjevnu kombinaciju s rubcem? (...i ponovni posjet Međugorju)

Medjugorje in Herzegovina, a little village, but visited by millions every year. We're there fairly often, sometimes as much as a few times a month. In immediate vicinity of the church in Medjugorje you can find this little ethno village that still isn't open for business but you can visit it anyway, just to admire it---as we did last week! It is close to our friend's place. The first time my husband was here was quite a long time ago, when our friends (the one I just mentioned) decided to have their wedding photos taken here. My husband was also there for that photoshot, being the best man and all. Since then this place has often been our stop. It is still under contructions (more than four years and counting) but its grows more beautiful with every visit of ours.  Read about my previous visits:  here (2016), here (2015),  here (2014), here (2013). It is in this location that I shoot my post about different ways to wear a scarf (here) and today I will show you another trick. In post I will wear a scarf both around my neck and around my waist. You may have noticed that I like wearing scarves as belts. Scarves and foulards are the perfect accessories, aren't they? I always felt like they can spice up any old outfit. How do you like my styling? I've had this green dress forever, but I never seem to get tired of wearing it. This outfit has one DIY element, can you guess what it is?

Međugorje u Hercegovini, maleno selo, ali posjećuju ga milijuni svake godine. Mi smo tamo dosta često, ponekad nekoliko puta mjesečno. U blizini crkve u Međugorju možete pronaći ovo malo etno selo koje još nije otvoreno za noćenje, ali ga svejedno možete posjetiti da biste mu se divili- kao što smo mi učinili prošloga tjedna. Blizu  je kuće naših prijatelja. Prvi put kada je moj muž bio ovdje je bilo prije dosta dugo, kada su se naši prijatelji, ti koje sam spomenula, tu slikali za vjenčanje, a moj muž je bio s njima jer im je bio kum. Otada je ovo mjesto naše stajalište. Još je pod izgradnjom (već više od četiri godine). U engleskome dijelu teksta možete pronaći moje poveznice za prijašnje objave, a na ovoj lokaciji sam snimila i objavu o različitim načina na koje se može nositi rubac. Prikladno, jer danas ću nositi rubac i oko vrata i oko struka. Možda ste primijetili kako volim nositi rupce kao remene. Marame ili rupci, to dvoje je savršeni modni dodatak, zar ne? Uvijek sam imala osjećaj da svaku kombinaciju mogu osvježiti. Kako vam se sviđa ova kombinacija? Imam ovu zelenu haljinu već sto godina i nikako da mi dosadi. Ima malo i moga rada u ovoj odjevnoj kombinaciji, što mislite o čemu se radi?





 POST UPDATE


I've blogged about Međugorje many times.




MEĐUGORJE- A GREEN OASIS OF PEACE AND QUIET- Being sustainable with travel is another great idea if you are looking to make a difference. You can do it by being a local tourist and exploring the areas you would otherwise visit for various.

 The location where these photographs were taken is Međugorje (Medjugorje), a small touristic village in Herzegovina. Most of tourists that come to this village do so for religious reasons as Medjugorje is one of the most visited  Christian pilgrimage sites, but you can also come to enjoy the nature. If you're interested to see and learn more about Međugorje, you can also visit my old post shot at this location and find more information there. It really is a lovely and peaceful place. Perfect for lovers of rural tourism and fine dining. There are some amazing restaurants in this area!

  18. Prekrasno mesto, idealno za fotografisanje! Mnogo mi se dopada haljinica, obozavam ovu tamnu nijansu zelene boje, a lepo si je i uklopila sa maramom. Uvek das kombinaciji neki svoj licni pecat i to mi se upravo i dopada :-*

  21. Kakvo savršeno mesto! :) ne mogu da mu se nadivim. baš me ne čudi što su se vaši prijatelji slikali tamo, verujem da su im fotografije savršene u takvom abijentu. Tvoje gledam već nekoliko puta i nemam reči koliko je svaki detalj divan. Plus ti tako prelepa u toj damskoj kombinaciji :) Marama je baš osvežila tamniji kolorit i uopšte me čudi što ih toliko voliš. Stvarno su kao stvorene za eksperimentisanje, a mogućnosti je bezbroj :)

  22. you look really, really fab my dear! i LOVE scarfs too. they are such a cool accessory for every kind of clothing stuff. i like the scarf that you wear - this colourmix is a nice one.

    and your white nail polish is such an eyecatcher: bright and good looking. and yes, i see your very special unique tights again. this idea to wear an opaque tights to this outfit is: 2 thumbs up...;-)

    great post Ivana!

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.
