a little place to call my own (art and fashion blog)

EN Today I'm taking you to one of the most beautiful European towns- Hvar. Located on a gorgeous island Hvar, this town has a lot to offer in terms of culture, gastronomy and history.

 Hello there! How's your weekend turning out so far? I've been working on new fashion illustrations all day. Today I'll show you two fashion sketches I made yesterday, the original medium for both of them is coloured pencils on paper but I also turned them into digital art and played around with that. Scroll down to see the original fashion drawings and the digital versions.  I LOVE THAT BLUE IS TRENDING NOW What both of these fashion sketches have in common is that they depict a combination of a blue sweater and a skirt. One of them depicts a blue sweater paired with an olive green pencil skirt and the other depicts it paired with a dark maxi skirt. The fashion sketch depicting the olive green skirt was inspired by one skirt that I actually own and love but more about that some other time. Bellow you can see me playing with some other colours and  reimagining these outfits as darker or lighter.  FEEL FREE TO CHECK OUT MY OTHER INSPIRED BY POSTS AND SEE WHAT OTHER BL...

How are you doing lovely people? Are you happy that the weekend is ante portas? Today I'll show you another Autumn styling featuring a vintage red floral set consisting of a matching skirt and blouse. Do you like wearing matching sets? It's a pretty colourful outfit I'm wearing here. Do you like wearing colours in Autumn and Winter? I do feel inspired to wear different colours in Autumn, maybe it is because of all the colour changes taking place in nature. Does that makes sense to you? One of the places where the change of season is wonderfully visible is area surrounding Buna river. In fact.  The location for these photographs is Bunica recreation area near Mostar. You guys know that I love Buna river, right? I have blogged about this lovely area a number of times on my blog.

EN Hello there lovely readers or fellow bloggers! Today I'm back with a book review and a reading recommendation. We'll talk about a novel  Fima written by Amoz Oz and published in 1991. Now, this author isn't new to me, in fact I've been a fan of his for years. I must have been public about it because I remember how when Amoz Oz died two years ago, I got texted about it. Yes, I was quite sad as you can imagine, as sad as when Umberto Eco died four years ago. There is something infinitely sad about a passing of one's favourite author. I'm sure fellow bookworms will understand.  When you read a certain number of books by the same author, it can seem like you've really looked into their soul. Well, let's get to reviewing this novel, shall we?  HR Pozdrav dragi čitatelji ili kolege blogeri! Danas se vraćam s recenzijom knjige i preporukom za čitanje. Razgovarat ćemo o romanu Fima koji je objavljen 1991., a kojeg  je napisao Amoz Oz. Ne radi se o novom auto...
