Fashion illustration of the day (flared sleeves and heels) / Modna ilustracija dana (široki rukavi i visoke potpetice)


Today I'm back with another fashion illustration. This one was inspired by one of my old outfits. I drew it back it 2017, but I didn't manage to post it before. The medium is watercolour (and pencil) on paper. It features an outfit composed of a denim skirt, a flared sleeved top and heels. I love denim skirts, but this one especially. I have had it for a while now and I still wear it regularly.  How do you like denim skirt? Do you own one? 

Another thing I love is flare sleeves and heels. Nothing like them to add some drama in an outfit. As long as I'm remembering about this outfit, I might also mention this caramel bag. It proved to be a good purchase. It is surprising how caramel seems to go well with everything. I told you (in my last post) that I've been craving red lately. I'm trying to come up with a lovely red outfit so do wish me luck. Thank you for reading and  have a lovely day!

    It's nice to see the side by side of your outfit and the sketch together! :)

    I like your denim skirt too. I do have a chambray maxi skirt, but I've wanted another denim skirt for a while. Haven't found the perfect one yet though, I do keep looking :)

    Hope you're having a good week so far. I'm busy, but not as much as last week, so that's nice! :)

    Dearest Ivana,
    your drawing looks beautiful and the original, too. Beautiful blouse with great sleeves and I really like your denim skirt - on you! I myself I don't like to wear denim skirts: I have not found one yet, which is really comfortable, the fabric is usually stiff and the cuts are not good for my figure. But maybe one day I find the ideal denim skirt... ;-)
    Hugs my dear!

    I love how you've used one of your own outfits as inspiration for this fashion illustration! Using watercolour as your chosen medium must have been such an interesting process to learn, I always remember finding it very difficult to control on the paper haha. Have a wonderful weekend Ivana!! :)

    Hey Ivana, hope that you're enjoying your week.

    Love to see that you're able to find inspiration even in your previous looks, that is such a remarkable way to keep creating as we never know where we will find references and things that inspire us. We must have our eyes wide open right? :)

    I really adore the way you draw the pose, it looks very natural :)

    All the best and have a good week ahead!

SPRING IN MOSTAR CITY: A VINTAGE PURPLE BLAZER PAIRED WITH A FLORAL DRESS

Image
 Good morning, dear readers! Today I have a new spring outfit to present to you. I wore this spring styling for a coffee date with my husband. We walked around the town and enjoyed a lovely spring day. What town you might ask? The location for the post is lovely Mostar city and the designed photographer my husband. Mostar is always lovely but especially so in the Spring time. I always repeat that Spring is the best time to visit Mostar. Speaking of Mostar, the capital of Herzegovina, one shouldn't forget other visit worthy locations in this region. Herzegovina is simply dreamy in Spring time. I will link a few up for those who might be interested, so don't worry. W HAT TO SEE IN HERZEGOVINA?

WELCOMING SPRING WITH 15 IDEAS TO COMBAT SPRING FATIGUE!

Image
 Welcome Spring! We welcome thy beauty! We also fear thy evil twin- The Spring Fatigue. Like in a telenovela, one rarely comes without the other. Both are inevitable, so let's just welcome the first and try to manage the other until it perishes (in a slow motion) in a fatal car accident. That's what always happened in the Latin soap operas (i.e telenovelas) that were all the rave when I was a kid (and that are the reason why many Croatian people have a pretty good passive understanding of Spanish without even learning it in school, but I digress).  My point is that the beautiful Spring often comes accompanied with Spring Fatigue that can range from mild tiredness to extreme exhaustion. I mean Spring Fatigue is sometimes impossible to avoid. I googled it as many times as I could, and besides the general advice (sleep, eat and exercise well and so on), I didn't really find too much useful information. I guess we all have to find our ways to take the bad with the good!  To all

HOW TO STYLE A YELLOW BLAZER FOR SPRING? A FEMININE OUTFIT PROPOSAL

Image
Yellow is such a happy colour for me, one that I associate with sun and all things nice. Spring is a great time to opt for this colour that seems to invoke sunlight. If you're not sure how to wear more yellow, you might want to start with something simple- maybe a blazer. That brings us to the title of my post: How to style a yellow blazer for spring? A yellow blazer is a great way to refresh your spring wardrobe. The one I have is vintage, and a bit on the longer side. Lately I've taken to wearing vintage blazers with dresses, it's my favourite outfit formula right now. I love that it gives one freedom to play with colours, and it is so easy to dress it up and down. This kind of outfit can be appropriate for all kind of situations, from work to play options. One of those combinations that you can wear both for a date and for work. Blazers make any outfit more polished, and by choosing a blazer in a light colour, you'll also be invoking spring.

Let there be colour! (outfit post) / Neka bude boja (odjevna kombinacija)

Image
It was over 40 degrees Celsius (that's over 100 Fahrenheit) when these photographs were taken. Seriously! I'm obviously a desert type when I'm able to enjoy being out at midday in a city that is practically an oven. If you did not know Mostar city is surrounded by mountains and hills which pretty much turns it into an urban oven. Yes, this city is a champion of unbelievably high temperatures during the Summer. So, this hat was as much a necessity as a fashion statement. Wearing a hat when temperature is over 100 Fahrenheit is a sound idea, believe me. Speaking of Fahrenheits,  have you read  Fahrenheit 451  by Ray Bradbury? You should, you know, it really is a brilliant dystopian novel. I find it uncanny how much some writers were able to guess the future, down to minute details. Every time when I ponder about our modern society problems and questionable practices, I think of this novel and I realize I'm not crazy. Some things are just wrong and that's the way it

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 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&

SPRING IN SPLIT : 3 OUTFITS, ONE WORN FOR AN ART EXHIBITION

Image
Hello! Spring break is officially over for me. Today was my second day back at work and I'm exhausted. The first day was fun, we've all happy to see one another again and all that, but the second day tired me out. The end of the week is far away, too. It takes time to get used to working from 7 to 5 again.  I divided my Spring break between my favourite three places and two countries:  island Hvar & Split (in Croatia) and Mostar (in Bosnia and Herzegovina). I visited an art exhibition and that was fun, too. The art exhibition was by Croatian illustrator Filip Čulić. The exhibition included his illustrations and comic book art. It's open until the end of April, so if you're in Split, check it out (more information here ). I love Split's city library. They always organize fun stuff. There usually is always an exhibition of some kind at the central library. I'm a big fan of libraries. Library membership is the best money you'll ever spend.  SLJEDEĆI TEKST J

Painting of the day (A Lioness) / Slika dana (Lavica)

Image
When I woke up this morning, the first thing I did was walk to the kitchen. Naturally, I was there to make coffee (can’t start a day without it) but while I was at it, I decided to also make a nice cup of warm chocolate. I figured that one can’t have too many warm drinks when the weather is misbehaving. Plus, I wanted something to drink right away, and because preparing coffee my style takes a while (wouldn’t be caught dead drinking instant coffee;)) I opted for warm chocolate first and it was nice but I have to remember to make my own instant coffee again, I’m sure that stuff they sell in shops are full of all kinds of unhealthy stuff. Speaking of health, I have had a cold for a week now, my throat is still sore and my vocal cords are in pitiful state.  I'm not a big fan of my voice right now, but most people seem to like it. Well, at least I’m unique this way. I can always tell people that I was out partying the previous night. Anyhow, while I was preparing my coffee/hot choco

Island Hvar inspired this necklace (outfit post)/ Otok Hvar je nadahnuće za ovu ogrlicu (odjevna kombinacija)

If you spent each day on a different Croatian island, it would take you three years to visit them all, as there are more than a 1, 200 islands in Croatia. I visted only one Croatian island this Summer and I'm currently trying to work out in my head how many of them I have visited in my lifetime. Alas, only a handful of them. So many Croatian islands to visit, so little time!   Standing on my grandmother's terrace, I realize the root of my fascination with rocks. Not the precious or expenssive kind but rocks dig from earth so full of them that farming was almost impossible, rocks that build houses and fences, rocks that are testiment to a remarbakle strenght of people who populated and surrowed on islands lacking natural water resources or fertile land, defying thirst,  hunger, pirates and numerous enemy invasions.  I feel at home in both Split and Mostar but when I get off  the ferry and step onto island Hvar, I step into a magical world. It took me a while to define t

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? hat/ šešir: old+DIY, dress/haljina: no name, block heels/ cipele s debelom petom: Naughty Monkey hat/ šešir: old+DIY, dress/haljina: no name, block heels/ cipele s debelom petom:  Naughty Monkey
