It's all about that flare ( Style We)


Let's talk about cropped flares. Have you ever tried wearing them? If you remember, I mentioned cropped and capri pants in my post yesterday. Then I said they are a great choice if you want to make your boots stand out more in these colder months. The same goes for shoes naturally. What ever type of shoe you choose to wear with capri and cropped trousers, you can be sure it will be in the spotlight. Now, I've always loved capris and I'm happy to see that flared capri pants are becoming a trend. Cropped flares  are nothing new to me. You saw me wear flared cropped pants at least a couple of times here on the blog. I love them but I have a confession to make. All those cropped flares I have and that I wear regularly are basically regular flares that look cropped on me. Because of my body shape (short torso as compared to legs), I often end up with pants that look cropped even when they're not. There is an expression for this in my hometown Split, we say you're missing a few dollars of pants (the expression probably dates from when people bought the material and made their clothes themselves so when those clothes weren't the perfect length, it was implied they were saving money on material) Well, good for me.   Now I can be trendy without looking I was trying to save a buck.  Anyway, I've prepared a few collages for you today, showing you different ways in which you can style your flares. All the items are from style we, or how they like to call themselves Online store for everyone .

                                                                CAPRI FLARES 

My first collage shows you three pairs of capri flared pants. I would say that these three pairs can be suitable for both special occasion and everyday wear, depending on other items and accessories you paired them with.

1 /    2  /  3   
                                                                        ELEGANT FLARE STYLES 

The new collage shows more formal, classical and elegant choices. Two of these pairs are of normal length, only the middle pair (the white one) is slightly cropped. How do you like these? Would your wear them. The first pair looks like the most practical one to me, because it seems to be the easier to style, but the white and the lace pair are both lovely as well.

                                                             
1 / 2/ 3



                                               FASHION FORWARD FLARE STYLES


Now, let's make time for some drama. The three pairs you can find below are very fashion forward. You would surely get noticed if you wore them. However, they can also be styled down and worn on everyday basis. If you want to see more casual pants for women you know where to look.

That's all for today. Thank you for reading. Here is a link to style we YouTube channel if you want to give it a look.

    Hahahaha, missing a few dollars of pants. That's a great way to describe it. Sometimes when people wear body con dresses or cut outs, they're asked if they didn't have enough fabric.
    I am a huge fan of flares. Even better cropped. You're so right, wearing flares puts one's shoes in the spotlight. Just like peplum, I feel like they work for a woman's body, creating an illusion of an hour glass. The slits make them even edgier. The 'dramaful' ones are also cool. Number 2 may be my favorite.
    I love capris 1 2 and 3. Can't believe they're from style we. I can't wait to go feast my eyes .
    Hope you had a great week Ivana. Mine was so busy and I'm welcoming the weekend with open arms as always. Hopefully I get some time to sit back and just do absolutely nothing.

    Baš mi je simpatična pričica o uštedi novca na pantalonama :) Svakako ima smisla. Zanimljivo mi je i to što si ti "u trendu" sasvim sponatno :) Što se takvih pantalona tiče, oduvek su mi se dopadale. Imaju tu neku elegantnu nonšalantnost koju retko koji komad odeće može da stvori. Posebno mi se dopadaju bele iz drugog kolaža i crne sa resicama iz trećeg. Baš inspirativno :)

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

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. Learn how to stay away from the big shoppin

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!

Image
 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
