Flare jeans and magetna coat (location Mostar, BIH)


I'm still really into this magenta coat. I love everything about this coat, the cut and the colours, the accent sleeves and the detail on the collar. This time I paired it with a pair of blue flare jeans, a striped backpack and a pair of black boots. I wore it on a cold and sunny winter day and I felt pretty good. Dressing up in Winter is sometimes a challenge, but sometimes it is quite easy. If you are the sort of person who enjoys colours, perhaps wearing a coloured coat is a good idea to chase of Monday blues. I personally don't get those Monday blues anymore. I try to make it a habit to visit libraries on Monday and since I love reading this is obviously something I look forward too. I'm not sure is that the sole reason why I don't dislike Mondays anymore but it certainly doesn't hurt.

Flare jeans and magetna coat (location #Mostar, BIH)


This location was already featured in this post. Mostar could be described as the city of bridges and rivers (there are many bridges and rivers in this city). In this post , for instance, you can even see the new bridge. So, there you go. Sometimes I actually take photographs (or better to say have my photos taken) in the city I live in most of the time, i.e. Mostar. Back to the subject of clothes. I've always been a fan of flare jeans. I love to wear them with pretty much everything, and coats are no exception. This year I've been wearing this pair of flare jeans very often. You can see how I styled them here.  How do you like this outfit? Do you like Winter?  How do stay warm and cozy during Winter? Do you like Mondays?

    Hello Ivana, hope you're starting the week with the best attitude :)

    Actually I'm not the kind of person who hates Mondays but sometimes it is a little bit difficult to get back on the track, even tho I usually work on Sundays too so I get used to it easily :)

    Love that you're facing a new week in the right outfit, for some people fashion is not more than vanity but I am sure that the right garments will help us to portrait our intentions and to survive life in more aesthetic way. Been obsessed with flare pants by the way ;) and they look perfect on you :)

    By the way I followed you on GoodReads this weekend ;)

    Zdravo Ivanice! Evo mene konačno na tvom blogu ponovo. Vreme nam ne dozvoljava nažalost da uvek ostavimo komentar, ali svakako ću pročitati zaostale postove.
    Ovaj kaputić je baš po mom ukusu. Boja i kroj skroz fantastični. Lepo mi izgledaš, veliki pozdrav

    Ah yes I remember the bridges when you've featured Mostar before. It's no surprise you love this coat. That's such a great color and the style presents for much versatility in terms of being dressed up or down.

    Sicuramente trovare un bel cappotto che ci stia bene è il rpimo passo per semplificarsi la vita in Inverno, sostanzialmente è lui che diventa il punto focale dell'outfit!
    Il tuo è davvero carino, e trovo che ti stia davvero bene sia come colore che come modello! L'ideale per passeggiare nella bella Mostar!
    detto questo, io non amo particolarmente l'inverno, dato che mi piace passare il tempo all'aperto e non amo il freddo nè mettere troppi vestiti, soprattutto pesanti addosso, capirai che non è proprio la mia stagione ideale, nonostante qui a Roma sia comunque molto mite! :)
    Baci!

    You are adorable, I believe we should invest into more colors during winter seasons, since they tend to be super gloomy and depressing.
    I love the magenta coat, and the fit is so for you! <3

    This coat is so beautiful, I love the color! You look radiant, very beautiful! I loved the photos, Mostar is really so cool! I confess I love winter and I find it easier for me to dress up in winter than in the summer. Magenta is a beautiful color for you, dear Ivana! Hope you have a beautiful week! Hugs!

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.

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

Image
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. Learn how to stay away from the big shoppin

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

Image
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

Image
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!

Image
 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
