VISIT GORANCI (BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA) WITH ME!

 Hello dear readers! Today I'm taking you to village Goranci. I visited this lovely village back last July. Located in vicinity of Mostar city, Goranci is a great summer destination, especially if you're looking for an escape from the urban jungle.   I've spend my August solely in Mostar so far. I think you all know the reason for that (more info here). I hardly left the house in days, I haven't been feeling well at all. I've managed to do some painting and reading despite my health issues, but I haven't been up to much else. The regular travelling posts on this blog will have to wait. However, I still have some 'travelling content' in the archives, so there will be a 'local travel' post from time to time, even if I don't manage to do any actual travelling.  Anyhow, today  I will show you photographs from our July visit to Goranci. Moreover, I'll share photographs of my previous visits over the years. I do really visit this place a lot.  I plan to head to Goranci as soon as I feel well enough to walk again. Scroll down to see more.


THE STORY OF AN OUTFIT- SHOPPING MY CLOSET AGAIN

One again, I shopped my closet for this look. This material of this midi skirt is a bit thick so I usually save it for colder months, but I figured I might give it a try. It turns out that I wasn't hot at all. I felt very comfortable in this styling. It probably helped that I wore the most comfortable sandals known to mankind for this walk. I layered my white tunics under this skirt (I'm close to thirty wears with this tunics!) under the skirt. I choose a burgundy bag I've had for years but still looks brand new. For accessories, I went for a long pink and purple necklace I made myself many years ago and a white straw hat (that was a practical choice because the sun is quite strong in Herzegovina)

HOW I WORE IT BEFORE? 

THE WHITE TUNICS-  8 ways to style this tunics here, 3 ways to style it here. I'm so happy I'm close to thirty wears with this one. 

THE BLUE MIDI VINTAGE SKIRT- last shown here. I've got this skirt from my sister-in-law. It's a size to be big, so I haven't gotten that much wear of it but on the other hand it's ideal for layering and oversize is often a more comfortable option in the summer. 

TROPICAL PRINT SANDALS - worn here. I think I'm close to thirty wears with this pair. 

BURGUNDY BAG- worn here. I've actually talked about this bag with my husband recently. We were both amazed by the fact that it doesn't look brand new- and I've had it for years. 

HANDMADE  NECKLACE (I MADE IT ABOUT 17 YEARS OLD)- worn here. I need to take close ups of this beaded necklace, it's really pretty. I think I was about nineteen when I made it.  

THE WHITE STRAW HAT- worn here, here and here.

  5. Hola Ivana, I hope you're having a lovely summer!

    I am happy to hear that you're taking advantage of these summer days to go around places and then show them on the blog, I am so happy to see that I can know a little bit of your surroundings through the blog :)

    Goranci looks like the perfect place for a summer escapade and disconnect from the world for a little bit, the places is really peaceful and it is nice to enjoy some nature on the countryside from time to time. Also connecting with the animals like those nice horses helps us a lot in many different ways :)

    Now talking about the looks, the option of the midi skirt in electric blue seems perfect, the materials look thic but good to know that the day wasn't too hot to wear it :)

    Wishing my best and hope you can get better to enjoy the rest of the summer!

  10. Sending more healing thoughts your way Ivana. I'm glad you tried this skirt even though it's thicker. Sometimes I think just the fact that a skirt isn't hugging us can be cooler than pants.
