Fashion illustration of the day (Happy Saint Patrick's Day!)/ Modna ilustracija dana (Sretan sveti Patrik!)

Today I'm sharing another fashion illustrations with you. The medium is acrylic on paper. I already shared it on my Instagram page, but I was waiting for today to share it on my blog because well it is saint Patrick's Day so I wanted to post something appropriate. On this day it is customary to wear green. Hence, the girl I illustrated is wearing a green outfit. 17th of March (the day of saint Patrick's death) has been an official Christian holiday since the 17th century. This day is  (as far as I know) observed by the majority of christian churches. Saint Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland. As one might expect, this day is especially celebrated in Ireland. The Feast of Saint Patrick can be defined as a religious and cultural celebration that takes place on this day. This celebration can come in many shapes and forms. These days, the Feast of saint Patrick doesn't only take place in Ireland, but all over the world. Have you ever attended it? I haven't, but I'm wearing something green today. That's my way of joining in the celebration. Have a great weekend everyone!

Danas sa vama dijelim još jednu modnu ilustraciju. Medij su akrilne boje na papiru. Već sam ju podijelila na svom Instagramu, ali čekala sam danas da je podijelim na svome blogu jer je danas dan svetoga Patrika pa sam htjela objaviti nešto prikladno. Na ovaj dan običaj je nositi zelenu boju, pa djevojka koju sam ilustrirala tako nosi zelenu kombinaciju. Sedamnaesti ožujka, dan smrti svetoga Patrika je službeni kršćanski praznik od sedamnaestoga stoljeća. Ovaj dan se koliko znam slavi u većini kršćanskih crkava. Sveti Patrik je svetac zaštitnik Irske. Stoga se ovaj dan posebno slavi u Irskoj. Slavlje svetoga Patrika možemo definirati kao religiozno i kulturno slavlje koje se održava na današnji dan, a može se pojaviti u raznim oblicima. Ovih dana, sveti Patrik se slavi i izvan Irske, pa zapravo postoje slavlja diljem svijeta.  Jeste li vi ikada bili na nekom takvom slavlju ili fešti? Ja nisam, ali nosim nešto zeleno danas, na taj način se nekako priključujem slavlju. Želim vam svima ugodan vikend!


Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

    E' incantevole questa illustrazione Ivana, così delicata ed elegante!
    Qui in Italia il St. Patrick Day non è così diffuso, nelle grandi città qualcuno lo celebra, soprattutto i locali fanno serate a tema, ma non è una festa molto sentita.
    Io non credo che festeggerò (soprattutto perchè non mi piace la birra), ma probabilmente andrò a vedere il Colosseo illuminato di verde! ^^

    I've never celebrated with a feast but I do try wear a little bit of green on Saint Patrick's day! :) I did wear a green tank yesterday even though I was only going to the local mother's group, and not a lot of others wore green.

    Hope you are having a great weekend!

    What a fabulous way to celebrate the day - with a themed fashion illustration! Your choice of shade of green is perfect and oh my gosh, I would genuinely (and very happily!) wear this outfit; it's so pretty!! Have a wonderful weekend :)

    Seems like St. Patrick's day is huge here in Canada too but I know nothing about it as it's not celebrated in Malaysia. I should really read about it though, the origins of the celebration.

    Lovely illustration and beautiful movements, Ivana. Saint Patrick's DAy is not a federal holiday. Schools and businesses are open as usual. It's mostly celebrated in cities with a large Irish-American population, tho. They'll have a parade and such. Happy Sunday, luv.

    Nisam nikada prisustvovala toj proslavi ali mi je dosta poznato kako to sve izgleda jer je moj muž neko vreme živeo u Irskoj gde je to događaj godine :) Vidim baš da ti je "legla" zelena boja i inspiracija, a meni ne smeta. Ja je baš volim i sviđa mi se kako si pomešala dve različite nijanse u kombinaciji. Opet si uspela da stvoriš taj osećaj pokreta i razigranosti :)

    this outfit on your painting reminds me almost on a dancer: this looks like a body and a tutu, right? but these pumps may gave another look to this outfit. this is definitely a outfit to talk about.

    it´s a nice one.

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...

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...

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 ...

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...

THE LUNCHEON & THE THREE FAT WOMEN OF ANTIBEST , TWO SHORT STORIES BY W. SOMERSET MAUGHAM (REVIEWS)

Image
Hello! In this post, I'll review two short stories by British author William Somerset Maugham. Both of these shorts stories are on the humorous side. One of these stories feels more serious than the other, but both are quite short, so they are a wonderful choice if you're short on time. As the titles The Luncheon and The Three Fat Women of Antibest imply , both of these short stories are about food, or perhaps better to say- about our relationship with food. As our human relationship with food is often marked by our human obsession with looks, one can examine food from a psychological point of view. That's what Maugham did in these stories.  I reviewed one of Maugham's humorous stories earlier this month. On second of November, I shared  my review for Maugham's short story titled T he Ant and the Grasshopper .  I enjoyed that story a great deal, and thought it was wonderfully humours. Although, most of that story happens during a conversation at a luncheon, it's...
