This illustration has been inspired by Margot from I am every woman blog. The medium is pencil on paper. I really liked this monochrome styling with a touch of tartan print (on the collar and the cuffs of sleeves). How do you like this outfit? Ova ilustracija je nadahnuta Margot s bloga I am every woman. Medij je olovka na papiru. Jako mi se svidjela ova crno-bijela kombinacija s daškom kariranoga uzorka na ovratniku i krajevima rukava. Kako se vama sviđa?
Dear Ivana, hopefully you are fine and you had a wonderful weekend! I love the perfection of this illustration - what you made turned out wonderful! Thanks for sharing! xx from Bavaria/Germany, Rena www.dressedwithsoul.com
Un look semplice ma stiloso, mi piace molto come sie riuscita a rendere la lucentezza della borsa, bravissima! Baci! S https://s-fashion-avenue.blogspot.it
Thats a really good illustration, Ivana! I must say I prefer the ones that are with colours though but that's because they really make your illustrations come to live.
REally lovely, I liked the illustration very much, ballerinas are something understated, that people think don't look as good as high heels, but I love them! I wish you a lovely day, dear Ivana! DenisesPlanet.com
Your the newest illustration is terrific, I really like that you decided to use pencil here, again, you did great work on this drawing. What's more, your description of this outfit sounds so interesting so I visited Margot's blog - it turned out that she is from Poland too, ha ;) Moreover, glad to here that everything is fine with you, my dear, I hope that you're having lovely evening as well. ;)
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.
POST UPDATE 2024 FRIDAY FASHION ILLUSTRATION: FANTASY Let's TALK illustration. Sometimes I illustrate items that I actually wear. Sometimes I illustrate my own outfits. Sometimes I illustrate other bloggers. I HAVE ILLUSTRATED THIS LEATHER JACKET TWICE! HERE & HERE Browsing my archives I realized that I have illustrated this leather jacket at least twice before. Moreover, counting the post today I have illustrated this pair of high brown boots four times! Is it me or am I starting to wear the items I have illustrated more often? Do you think that's possible? Perhaps illustrating them creates a sort of visual fashion memento in my head. SHOULD YOU USE A REFERENCE WHEN PRACTICING FASHION ILLUSTRATION? Is reference important? Should I drew with a reference or from imagination? My answer would be that you should do both. When I wrote about ten ways to improve your fashion illustration skills, both drawing with and without reference made my list of tips. I said that
Hello! In this post, I'll take you back to Split city to share a book review and an outfit post. I'll review a book that made be both cry and laugh. You could say I believe in fate. Never has fate seemed more obvious to me than when it comes to books. So many times in my life has a book arrived at the right time! Every time that happened, I would wonder: 'What are the odds of that?' There's a whole story behind how I bought this book, and I will share a more detailed account soon. Until then, I'll give you a short version. I googled events in Split city and saw there was a promotion at Split city library. I have to say this was the best book promotion I have ever attended for a number of reasons. I'll get back to them as I don't have time to go in detail right now. I'm literally typing this on my cellphone, sitting in a café in Split city. What kind of novel is this? Written in Dalmatian dialect, an autobiographical novel by Croatian author Venera
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 Belluci 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 Belluci'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 film, I&
I honestly don't remember when I enjoyed a novel as much as Les Miserable s by Victor Hugo and that, taken the fact that literature is a huge part of my life, is saying a lot. I loved absolutely everything about it, not just the characters and the story but also those parts that were historical and philosophical. This is a true classic and I good reminder to myself why it is always a good idea to get back to the classics. Now, about the outfit. Cat ears that I'm wearing started out as a necklace, worked part time as a belt and a bracelet, but you know how it is with jewellery I make, I always find new uses for it. Sometimes I think about the different function in the process of designing my pieces, but sometimes I get ideas as time goes up. This necklace I'm wearing is also my creation. Iskreno se ne sjećam kada sam uživala u nekom romanu tako kao u Jadnicima Victora Huga i to nije mala stvar za reći, s obzirom na to koliko je prostora u mom životu posvećeno baš knjiže
My outfit proposal of the day is a casual one. I feel that not too long ago a blazer worn with jeans wouldn't have been exactly my first choice, especially paired with dad's sneakers, but times are changing. One of fun things about trends is that they can make you step outside of your comfort zone a little bit. Obviously, we shouldn't follow trends just for the sake of following them, but often they can give us inspiration. I certainly like to look at them that way, as a source of inspiration. Fashion moves in circles, so playing up with trends doesn't really have to cost anything, especially if you have already mastered shopping your own closet. The athletic sneaker trend is certainly a tempting one. It's hard to say not to the comfy sneakers trend, especially when you enjoy hiking and strolling around as much as I do. Most people do have an ugly sneaker in their closet. It is possibly the most comfortable option out there, so why not try styling it for every day?
I don't usually take a lot of photos with my smartphone, because the quality is not that great but looking back at photos taken these two last months, there are some that I'd like to share.... Baš i ne slikavam puno s mobitelom jer nije dobra kvaliteta fotografija, ali gledajući slike uslikane zadnja dva mjeseca, vidim da ima nekih koje bi ipak voljela podijeliti tako da.... March, Split March, Split ožujak, Split (Bačvice) April, Island Hvar travanj, otok Hvar Procession Procesija Radunica, Split Bačvice, Split, April view from the bus/ pogled iz autobusa my nephew's watercolour /nećakov akvarel moj akvarel /my watercolour Stvarnost ima više mašte od tebe (roman Sve žene moga oca, Agualusa) everything is easier with a cup of coffee/sve je lakše uz šalicu kave new Peko boots/ nove čizme iz Peka Mostar, April travanj, Mostar
Is background important? Yes, it is important in many ways. Today I won't talk about having the right kind of background for a certain job or position (widely debated topic today) but I will talk about background in paintings and drawings. Not in the historical sense of the world, one that has to do with history of classical art. I won't analyze great painters, not just yet. I will, however, mention the history of fashion illustration. Is there such thing? There certainly is. It is estimated that fashion illustration is approximately 500 years old. It dates back to the origins of fashion as we know it today, albeit it could be argued with good points that fashion is a lot older than that (points I happen to agree with that is why I'm using the phrase 'fashion as we know it today' because that implies a newer definition of fashion that is often taken for granted). After all, there are very precise paintings of garments to be found in Asian art that are a lot ol
This lake you see is artificial in origin but that doesn't make it less impressive. If you ever visit Mostar, I recommend you visit this lake. It is situated in the vicinity of the city. Peaceful and serene atmosphere, birds and other animals to observe, beautiful nature, magnificent mountain views.... ...what is there not to love? Ovo jezero koje vidite je umjetno, ali ga to ne čini manje impresivnim. Posjetite li ikad Mostar, savjetujem vam da posjetite i ovo jezero. Nalazi se u blizini grada. Mirna i umirujuća atmosfera, ptice i druge životinje za promatrati, prekrasna priroda, veličanstveni pogled na planine. ...Što bi se tu moglo ne voljeti? POST UPDATE 2024: ADDING NEW RELEVANT LINKS I ILLUSTRATED THIS LAKE BACK IN 2018. I MEAN IT'S JUST A QUICK watercolour sketch, but who knows. I might be inspired to paint this place. This illustration was more a fashion illustration with a background. I felt like adding a background to my fashion illustration. This ba
Can we wear knits in spring time? I've been wearing them in spring time for a long as I can remember, but somehow I still find myself asking this question from time to time. Are sweaters really meant for spring? I suppose that sweaters and knits aren't the first thing that comes to our mind when we think of spring outfits. However, spring isn't always about perfect sunny weather. Sometimes we need layers and there is where knits come into picture. As tempting as it might be to pack all your cardigans and sweaters away once spring makes its appearance, sometimes it is really better to hold on to them. In reality, cardigans and sweaters can be your best friends in spring time. They are simply perfect for layering and we all know that layering is a must when weather is unpredictable. How to style knits for spring? They are actually not that hard to style, especially those that come in lighter or pastel shades. In my experience, most knits look great worn with jeans, light d
