FRIDAY FASHION ILLUSTRATION: NEW AUTUMN INSPIRED ART AND DESIGNS

Hello, darlings! It's Friday and that means it's time for another FRIDAY FASHION ILLUSTRATION post! Today I have four new fashion illustrations to share with you. The medium for all of them is coloured pencils on  A4 printing paper. The colours used are predominately blue and red. Once again, I have made these illustration without a specific reference. The outfits are a mostly a product of my inspiration, but I was also inspired by one of my outfits. Two of these fashion illustrations (those depicting pencil skirts) were inspired by one of my own recent posts (Do you remember that post where I showed you 7 ways to wear a pencil skirt? That was the one!) These fashion illustrations are available in my Redbubble shop (on 59 products, including framed prints, art prints, tote bags and stickers- to name just a few). 

Ciao, cari lettori! Arriva un altro Venerdi dedicato alle illustrazione di moda (Fashion Illustration Friday)! Oggi vi mostro le mie nuove illustrazioni di moda. I colori che ho usato più spesso sono il blu e il rosso. Il medium artistico per tutte le illustrazioni sono le matite colorate su carta A4. Ho disegnato  queste 4 illustrazioni senza un riferimento specifico. I look illustrati sono un prodotto della mia immaginazione diciamo, ma per quelle illustrazione con la gonna pencil, ho usato uno di miei outfit come ispirazione (Ricordate forse questo post in cui parlo di 7 modi di indossare una gonna pencil? Si, parlo di primo look!).  Se vi piacciano, potete dare un'occhiata al mio negozio Redbubble dove queste illustrazioni sono disponibile (59 prodotti!)

Zdravo dragi moji! Vrijeme je za još jedan PETAK MODNE ILUSTRACIJE! Danas ću sa vama podijeliti četiri najnovije modne ilustracije. Medij za sve ove  ilustracije su obojene olovke na papiru za A4, a najviše sam koristila plavu i crvenu boju. Kao i prošli put nisam crtala s referencom nego sam se više oslonila na svoju maštu, tako da su ove odjevne kombinacije proizvod moje mašte. No, moram priznati da me nadahnula  i jedna od mojih nedavnih objava, tako da su dvije ilustracije na kojima se vide suknje olovka kroja nadahnute objavom o sedam načina za nositi suknju olovka kroja. Ove su modne ilustracije dostupne i u mom Redbubble dućanu (na 59 proizvoda) pa bacite pogled. 
1. A-LINE DRESS 2. FLORAL FANTASY A-LINE DRESS 3. GRAPHIC T-SHIRT DRESS 4. CHIFFON TOP

BRUNETTE WITH BLUE EYES: QUEEN OF FLOWERS
Let's start with the most arty illustration. This pencil drawing depicts a brunette with blue eyes. After I have made this illustration, I also decorated it with flowers (and added some of my watercolour roses from one of my recent paintings in Paint). I just love how this one turned out! Scroll down to see the drawing process. Let me know how you like this one. It reminds me a bit of this one.
A PENCIL SKIRT PAIRED WITH A STATEMENT TOP 
The fashion illustration you can see bellow depicts a burgundy pencil skirt paired with a blue statement top and a blue bag. Originally I drew it without the statement sleeves, but it looked too ordinary so I decided to add big bows to the sleeves. This outfit could be worn in different seasons, the colours make me think autumn but if I were to wear something like this, I would definitely add a blazer. Scroll down to see the 'making of' collage I put together so you can see the drawing process. 
INTO  BLUE: A PENCIL SKIRT PAIRED WITH A BLUE SWEATER
This fashion illustration depicts a girl wearing a blue sweater, a pair of blue heels and a pencil skirt in same colour. The red bag breaks the monotony of blue. I think this would be a great autumn styling. What do you think? Scroll down to see the drawing process.
A PAIR OF FLARE JEANS, A BLUE SWEATER AND RED VEST
 Bellow you can see a fashion illustration depicting a pair of jeans, a sweater and a vest. I think this would be a perfect transitional look for autumn. Flare jeans are always fabulous. What do you think?
DIY NECKLACE & FLORAL DESIGNS
One of the reasons why I'm looking forward forward to autumn/fall is the opportunity to pair my statement necklaces with sweaters. Do you remembered  this necklace that I made from recycled faux leather and hand sewn in rhinestones? I avoid using glue in my DIY projects, and that goes for making statement necklaces as well. Sewing things seems much more ecological- not to mention more reliable. Do you have any creative hobbies? Do you make your own accessories?  Do you like these illustrations? Do you like the mixture of styles with the addition of floral print?

    I think your fashion illustrations are so beautiful! I especially love the one of the girl with flowers in her hair. It's so fun that you added real flowers to it.

      Thank you. I like adding dry flowers to my art and I typically have some lying around (because I also like to dry flowers).

    Predivne ilustracije. Jako mi se sviđa što tako lagano iz svoje mašte možeš ilustracije pretočiti na papir. Po meni to je stvarno nevjerovatan talent.

    These fashion illustrations are gorgeous, Ivana, and I love the colours you used, and the addition of the dried flowers. The first one is my absolute favourite! Have a lovely evening and Sunday! xxx

    I like the floral jumper your first model is wearing- that is so pretty!
    I must say that the statement ribbon-like sleeves are so fetching! They really do look like haute couture!

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

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

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
