Stripes are always a good idea..../ Pruge su uvijek dobra ideja....

I can never get tired of wearing stripes. For me, this print is a true classic. Something like Pavarotti of prints. I can never get tired of listenting to Pavarotti's performances. They always move me, no matter how many times I heard them before. Sometimes something just works for us and there is no harm in sticking to that. In my last post, I said that Split city is beautiful in Spring time. Today I'm going to say the same thing about Mostar. 

Mostar is a lovely place to visit during Spring. Speaking of Spring, as much as I love it, I have to admit it often leaves me feeling exhausted. There always seems to be a lot that need to be done during this period. Honestly, I don't have the energy to write much. No profound messages or long essays today.  If you want to know more about Mostar, you can always check my older posts. This post will be very short. Sorry. Have a lovely day everyone!

Nikad mi ne dosadi nošenje prugica. Za mene su one pravi klasik. Nešto kao Pavarotti uzoraka. Nikad mi ne dosadi slušati izvedbe Pavarottija. Uvijek me dirnu njegove izvedbe, bez obzira na to koliko sam ih puta prije poslušala. Ponekad nam nešto jednostavno odgovara i nema ništa loše u tome da se toga držimo. U zadnjoj objavi, rekla sam da je Split prekrasan u proljeće. Danas ću reći isto za Mostar. 

Divno ga je posjetiti u proljeće. No, koliko god voljela proljeće moram priznati i da sam često umorna u proljeće. Nekako u ovom razdoblju uvijek ima više toga za obaviti i... Nemam energije za puno pisati...Danas nema dubokih poruka ili dugih eseja. Želite li znati više o Mostaru, možete uvijek pogledati moje starije objave. Ova objava će biti jako kratka. Oprostite. Želim svima ugodan dan!

    I feel the same way Ivana, surely it's impossible to grow tired of wearing stripes, right?! :) You look lovely in this striped dress, especially with the pretty magenta cardigan over the top. Ah, the weather looks ever so beautiful over there right now - you're making me want to book some warm-weather travel, Ivana! haha :)

    Hi Ivana! Sorry to hear that you feel exhausted recently, I hope that you'll have a chance to relax ASAP, dear. What about stripes, I totally agree with you that they're timeless and appropriate for each season of the year. I really like how you styled your beautiful dress - that fuschia sweater looks amazing with black and white stripes, dear!
    Hope you're having lovely evening, Ivana :)

    Draga moja, evo i mene konačno. Oprosti što me nije bilo dugo, ali baš mi je bila potrebna duža pauza van ovog našeg virtuelnog sveta. U svakom slučaju, nadoknađivaću propušteno kad budem stizala. Tvoj blog je svakako jedan od onih kojima se rado vraćam.
    Jako mi se sviđa što si upredila prugice sa Pavarotijem. One baš jesu takva vrsta klasike. Meni uvek pogled zavšri na njima, a tokom proleća i leta su mi posebno drage. Divno izgledaš i jako ti lepo pristaje ta ljubočasto/roze nijansa. Imala sam sličan kardigan ranije. Baš je divan.
    Nisi jedina koju proleće raduje i umara, meni je naštočito zamorno kad je vreme svaki čas kao pred kišu, a ona ne padne. Meopata sam, a plus i moj nizak pritisak čini svoje...
    Veliki pozdrav! <3

      hvala, Pavarottija volim od malena:). Klasika je tu s razlogom, moglo bi se reći. Ovaj kardigan imam sto godina i uvijek ga rado nosim.

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

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.

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

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

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!

 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
