For the love of flowers...Za ljubav prema cvijeću....(Buna, BIH)
In my last post I showed you how flowers can play well with fashion illustrations. Today I'm going to show you how to wear a floral print in a casual way. I'm a big fan of a floral print for a number of reasons. One of them is certainly their eye-catching appeal. However, sometimes I feel like rocking the floral print in a more subtle way. Not every outfit needs to be a fashion statement, right? Sometimes we feel like taking it easy. How to dress florals down? What I like to do is to wear one floral item with colours that are either more neutral or (and) those that are a nice match with the colour that is present on the floral item in question. When I want to wear florals without drawing too much attention to the look, I stay away from the flashy accessories and keep it simple. Anyhow, that's my way to make the floral print more appropriate for every day wear. If you're looking for more inspiration, you can see how I styled this floral dress (yes, it's actually a dress/tunics) here and here. The location for this photographs was Buna in Bosnia and Herzegovina...and don't think for a second I'm not aware of how beautiful this place is and how lucky I'm to live in such a beautiful area.
U zadnjoj objavi sam vam pokazala kako se cvijeće može dobro slagati s modnim ilustracijama. Danas ću vam pokazati kako nositi cvjetni uzorak na ležerni način. Veliki sam obožavatelj cvjetnoga uzorka iz više razloga, a jedan od njih je sigurno njegova zamjetljivost. No, ponekad mi dođe da ga nosim na neki malo suptiliji način. Ne mora svaka odjevna kombinacija biti modna izjava, zar ne? Ponekad nam dođe da budemo malo opušteniji. Kako nositi cvjetni uzorak na ležerni način? Ono što se meni sviđa je kombinirati jedan odjevni predmet sa cvjetnim uzorkom s drugima koji su ili neutralne boje i/illi jedne od boja koje se slažu sa samim cvjetnim uzorkom. Kada mi se nosi cvjetni uzorak, a ne želim privući previše pažnje na kombinaciju, onda odustajem od previše primjetnih modnih dodataka i držim se jednostavnosti. Uglavnom, to je moj način za napraviti cvjetni uzorak više nosivijim svakodnevno. Ako želite još nadahnuća, možete vidjeti kako sam uskladila ovu cvjetnu haljinu (da, zapravo se radi o haljini/tunici) ovdje i ovdje. Lokacija za ove slike je Buna u Bosni i Herzegovini....i nemojte misliti da nisam posve svjesna kako sam sretna što živim u tako prekrasnom području.

DeleteI think to pair this elegant yet casual outfit with those hiking(?) boots is a fashion statement and a very smart one, Ivana. You pull of this edgy look extremely well.

Thank you...they're not exactly regular hiking boots because they're faux leather but they're very light and comfy.

PS: You asked me in my Capetown-post if you saw a duck on my photos – but I think, this bird is a so called Egyptian Goose.
Thank you, I hope I'm not too late to join in....and thanks for the info, I will look up Egyptian Goose online to learn more about this breed.
DeleteThat's a really pretty floral print. I like your idea to wear florals in a more subtle way and you pulled it off really well with this outfit. It's true that not every outfit needs to be a statement.
ReplyDeletethanks sweetie.
DeleteGreat mix of colors!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice week!

DeleteSince florals are already busy well kinda, I agree with pairing them with solid items. While a great mixed print look is great, I also love this classic way of rocking florals. Your skirt is very cute, the color is perfection! You look very fresh and chic Ivana! Hope your weekend is going great.

Ti sama deluješ kao neki divni cvet koji je izronio iz predivne prirode :) Mislim da je cveće večna inspiracija u svakom smilsu, pa me ni čudi što se cvetni uzorak uvek vraća. Na kraju krajeva, proleću cveće najlepše pristaje :)
ReplyDeleteKombinacija je divna i mnogo ti lepo stoje te rozikaste nijanse. Frizura ti je savršena! :)
Lovely pictures and outfit.

Plain and colourful - that's always a good idea. Your blouse is lovely - I really like the colours and you matched the skirt perfectly . Beautiful scenery :))))))
ReplyDeletei love these shots my dear! this looks for me like a pro photoshooting in the wild, instead of an simple outdoor walk. you posing like a model - this is so cute....! i LOVE the 3rd pic - your gesture is so cool.
ReplyDeleteand your floral shirt is really hot - i like it very well!!!

Preslatko ti stoje ovakve girly kombinacije! Cvetni print i ja volim i cesto nosim u ovim toplijim mesecima. Slazem se da kada se odlucimo za neki cvetni komad, ostatak kombinacije treba da je svedeniji i bez previse detalja.

I love how you kept the floral blouse the focus of your feminine outfit. And, I'm always a fan of Mother Nature backdrops! How beautiful is this place. From your photos, they look so serene, brimming with Life and everything in between. :) x
