SPLIT CITY SUMMER 2021(PART 1): SIMPLE PRINTED OUTFITS

 Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! I'm currently in Mostar. However, I still have some outfits and dinning recommendations I haven't shared from my visit to Split city back in July. So, here we go. Today I'll show you two simple summer styling ideas, both featuring the same pair of printed sandals. Moreover, one outfit features a graphic tee and floral skirt combo and the other a geometrical pattern dress. I love wearing patterns all year around  and I certainly don't stop wearing them in summer. I also love to wear bold colours. In other words, both of these outfits are exactly my cup of tea.  Scroll down to see more. 

THE STORY OF AN OUTFIT- HOW I WORE IT BEFORE? 
A  GRAPHIC TEE WORN WITH A WRAP VINTAGE FLORAL SKIRT
This is an outfit I wore on repeat. A graphical print t-shirt I got from my aunt a couple of years ago, a vintage floral skirt and tropical print sandals. Sometimes simplicity is the way to go. You can see how I wore this floral skirt here (as a part of a set), this grey peek-a-shoulder t-shirt here and sandals here.



RESTAURANT ASIA: ALWAYS A GREAT IDEA!
We couldn't resist stopping at restaurant Asia, one of our favourite places in Split city. We always have a great time there. We ordered a lot of food, more then we normally eat because we have missed this place so much. As always, their dumplings were so delicious. I could sure use a portion now!



BEACH ŽNJAN: WE FOUND A FUN BEACH RESTAURANT THERE!
We only went to the beach twice while we were in Split last July, but both times we selected beach Žnjan. I wore the same outfit as for the restaurant Asia, but I cannot recall the name of this beach bar and restaurant. There are a lot of great cafes on Žnjan beaches, but this was the first time I actually dined there. I was surprised  to find out you can order food there. I had a tuna salad, it was great (and surprisingly affordable for a place in immediate vicinity of the sea) so yes- it's definitely recommended. 

THE STORY OF AN OUTFIT- A PURPLE GEOMETRICAL PRINT DRESS
I've had this purple dress for years. You can see how I wore it previously here. Worn with the world comfiest sandals, it makes for a great beach styling. This is what I wore for my second visit to beach Žnjan. We were only in Split for a few days in July so we didn't have time for much sight-seeing. Still, we managed to visit some of our favourite places. I already showed you some of the places we visited but today you're getting the full picture. Now, maybe I will visit Split later this August, but I cannot promise anything.

    That looks so relaxing - I love dim sum (the steamed dumplings). The food looks fantastic!

    Wonderfully colourful and cheery outfits for traveling, Ivana. The purple dress is a classic jammy dress!

    Hi Ivana, I hope you had a good week !

    Good to know that you're enjoying these summer days, I love the fact that you're always shopping your own closet and bringing your clothes to the new life with new combinations and combos. There are many interesting things to look at in this post: from the fantastic red skirt that screams SUMMER to the wonderful purple dress that it is an edgy proposal (maybe adding a light jacket and you can still using it during fall). Your options seems so relaxed in this blog post that you obviously had to take some photographs for the blog.

    PS: Save some dumplings for me, the options in the restaurants look incredible!

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 ...

VISIT SINJ (CROATIA) WITH ME! EXPLORE THE DALMATIAN HIGHLANDS!

Image
Hello readers and fellow bloggers! Regular readers of my blog will know that I'm Dalmatian and ' parce mihi Domine,' (as St. Jerome's supposedly used to pray). Dalmatia is one of four historical Croatian regions. When we're talking about coastal regions in Croatia, there are only two: Istria and Dalmatia. Occupying the majority of Croatian seaside, Dalmatia is extremely popular with tourists. Dalmatian coast is quite long, including hundreds of islands, and running from Zadar in the north do Dubrovnik to the south.  However, there's more to Dalmatia than its seaside and islands.  I'm from the seaside myself, a proper sea child and all,  but I love the Dalmatian Highlands. Rich in history and culture, Dalmatia Highlands are unique in many ways. From culinary delicacies to fascinating traditions, from untouched nature to picturesque towns and villages, you'll find much to admire here. Have I blogged about it before? I certainly did. I blogged about the Gr...

WHAT I WORE IN MOSTAR FOR WONDERFULLY WARM AND SUNNY AUTUMN DAYS

Image
 Hello readers and fellow bloggers! Happy Sunday! In this post, I'll share three warm Autumn outfits I wore for strolling around Mostar city. Today is quite cold and cloudy for our Mediterranean standards, so the plan is to stay in and catch up with blogging. I've had a pretty eventful weekend so far. Weekend sometimes seem to just fly by, don't they? We often try to make up for the things we didn't do during the week, especially us ladies. We try to fit in all in- to clean the house, do chores and that sort of things. Sometimes weekends can even be tiring. There are conferences and meetings to attend. Learning how to shut down and rest properly can be a challenge. Life gets busy, and sometimes the older we get, the more busy it becomes. That's why I'm so grateful for these little outings I do, being a tourist in my own city and country- that sort of thing. I sometimes feel like I mastered sustainable and local travel . The challenge is just finding the time to ...

BURGUNDY AND YELLOW OUTFIT IN SPLIT CITY

Image
 Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll show you an autumn outfit I wore for a seaside stroll with my family in Split city, Croatia. This outfit is another example of me shopping my closet, so you can expect the sustainable fashion files to kick in any minute. This was a very comfortable outfit to wear that also felt very energizing. Probably it was due to colour therapy and all that. Wearing colours often makes me feel better. Mustard yellow and burgundy are the main colours in this look, and I do love these colours together. I dressed in layers, for it was quite windy and fresh despite the warm sun.  As regular readers of my blog know, Split is my home city, and you can find me there very often. In fact, you could say that I live between Split and Mostar. I love Mostar, but I do miss the sea. Is there anything better than seaside in Autumn and Winter? I always love being near the sea, but during the Autumn and Winter when there are hardly any people aroun...

30 PLUS WAYS TO WEAR AN OLIVE BLAZER (SUSTAINABLE FASHION FILES)

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, we'll talk some more about  sustainable fashion. As I believe the best way to learn is through example, so I'll show you multiple ways how to style an olive green blazer. On this little digital place to call my own, I love to show you how you can be more sustainable by shopping your closet. The more you love items in your closet and the better care you take of your clothes, you easier you'll find it to shop your closet. So, that's something to keep in mind! Besides linking up outfits with this blazer, I'll link up multiple ways to wear other items in my closet. As always, there will be fun collages to help you see the vision- how chic and fun restyling items can be! Olive green can be somewhat of an underrated colour, even if it is trending at the moment. For Autumn/Winter 2024/2025, tonal dressing in olive greens and khakis is right on trend. I'm convinced that when styled right, olive green can look good wi...

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...
