Uvjerena sam da smo mi kreatori svoga života.
Stvorimo vlastitu bajku!

    Such a beautiful poem, hun! You really have a knack for poetry. :) Would love to see more of your work! Also, the illustration has to be one of the best you have ever done! I know I always say this, but it's true - you keep getting better and better at your artwork, and it never fails to amaze me! I love the enchanting, magical feel of this one, and the detailing on the cape is so immaculate and beautiful! Thanks for sharing, lovely. <3 xoxo

    Beautiful illustration and an also beautiful poem, Ivana. Thx for letting me know. Sorry for not making myself clear, I am always in a hurry, I didn't meant where you bought the paper. I wanted to know what kind of watercolor paper you used, not the brand because I know it's neither Arches nor Fabriano or any such brand and it's probably student quality, tho. but like, gram weight, cp or hp, you know. Thx in advance, Ivana.

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 ...

10 STYLE LESSONS LEARNED FROM MALENA/ MONICA BELLUCCI

Image
With summer being in full spring, I caught myself thinking about iconic summer outfits. Do you know what came to my mind? Costumes/outfits worn by Monica Bellucci when she played Malena Scordia in an iconic Italian movie set on Sicily.   The costumes for that movie were designed by an acclaimed Italian costume designer Maurizio Millenotti and he outdone himself! Seeing that Malena is a historical movie, Maurizio choose quite timeless outfits and cuts that will ever go out of style. That fact makes Malena movie the perfect place to look for inspiration! Moreover, I feel that Monica Bellucci's personal style is quite similar to Malena's (i.e. to the style of the character she is playing).  There is definitely a Mediterranean lady feel about Malena/Monica Bellucci. What says summer better than Mediterranean and Sicily? Today we'll analyze Malena's style and see what we can learn from her. There is much to learn!  Having analyzed looks that Monica wore in iconic Malena ...

How to wear a scarf in more ways than one? (outfit post) / Kako nositi šal na više od jednog načina? (odjevna objava)

Image
Two ways to wear a scarf. Nothing revolutionary. If you want more inspiration, you will have to click this old  post  of mine (or this new one ). The first suggestion I'm throwing your way is just tying a scarf in a bow. Nice, simple and bound to give every outfit a feminine touch. Do you agree? The other way is to secure a scarf with a belt. You must have took notice of  'belted scarf' trend last year. I think we will be seeing it in the upcoming Autumn and Winter season as well. I'm trying to get out of my comfort zone and wear more black, but even when I choose an all black outfit, I feel a need for accessories that will be anything but.   Dva načina za nositi šal. Ništa revolucionarno. Želite li više nadahnuća, morati ćete otići na ovu moju staru objavu . Moj prvi prijedlog je da jednostavno zavežete šal u mašnu. Lijepo, jednostavno i sigurno će dati svakoj odjevnoj kombinaciji notu ženstvenosti. Slažete li se? Drugi način je učvrstiti šal na mjestu s remeno...

THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO 2024 MOVIE REVIEW

Image
In this post, I'll share with you a review of  The Count of Monte Cristo.  I don't go to theatre/movies often. In fact, years have been known to pass without me seeing a film on the big screen. However, when I saw the poster for the new 2024  The Count of Monte Cristo movie, I knew I simply had to go.  I really wanted to see this film, and I didn't even read the reviews or watch the trailer for it. I wasn't even intimidated by the fact it is a three hours long. Afterall, it's based on a rather long novel, so I didn't expect it to be short.  Now, I usually review books on my blog, not movies. However, perhaps this film review won't come as a surprise to you. I don't know if you have noticed, but I included a few Monte Cristo quotes in my last post .  So, you could say this Monte Cristo post was sort of teased or at least expected.  In the post preceding that one, I mentioned how much I like French movies and recommended one of them-  The Odyssey ...

Fringes, hearts and everything nice..../ Rese, srčeka i sve lijepo......

Image
This is not the first time I'm wearing this necklace, it was already featured here . I quite enjoyed designing and making it. Working with recycled materials is always fun because it calls for a lot of creativity. Besides, it feeds the incurable optimist in me that stubbornly believes  we can (at least sometimes) really make the most of things. Sometimes life is like bad coffee and we need to keep adding sugar to make it bearable....or in this case, fringes and hearts. Nije prvi put da nosim ovu ogrlicu, već ste je imali priliku vidjeti ovdje . Bilo ju je veliko zadovoljstvo osmišljavati i praviti. Raditi s recikliranim materijalima je uvijek zadovoljstvo zato jer zahtjeva dosta kreativnosti.  Osim toga, to hrani onog neizlječivog optimista u meni koji tvrdoglavo vjeruje da ponekad zaista možemo izvući maksimum iz stvari. Život zna biti kao loša kava, moramo dodati šećera da bude podnošljiva...ili u ovom slučaju srčeka i rese. necklace/ogrlica: DIY dress/haljina: ...
