I LOVE SPLIT CITY (TWO EARLY AUTUMN OUTFITS)

 Hello readers! Today I will share with you two early autumn outfits. They look more like summer outfits, though. The weather has been warm this Autumn so far. We're expecting some rain today but up to now the weather has been quite summery and so have my outfits. As you know, I'm currently in my home city Split (Croatia). I do love strolling this city. Autumn strolls can be especially rewarding. There's something melancholic and sweet about that time when Summer gives way to Autumn. 


OUTFIT NUMBER #1- A ONE SHOULDER BLUE DRESS WITH STUDS WORN UNDER A PINK FLORAL SKIRT AND PAIRED WITH A MINI CROSS OVER BAG AND BEIGE LOAFERS

Once again I tried the 'wear a dress as a top' tricky. You can see how I wore this blue dress with an olive blazer here.  When it comes to the pastel pink skirt I wore it with, I think it's vintage (I'm pretty sure it belonged to my mother). I wasn't able to track this skirt in my blog archives despite being certain that I wore it before.  This skirt is my nod to 'pink October', that is the movement of wearing more pink items in October to promote breast cancer awareness. This was a fun outfit to wear!



OUTFIT NUMBER #2- WHITE AND BLUE TUNICS PAIRED WITH A PAIR OF LEOPARD LEGGINGS, WHITE SANDALS, CROSSOVER BAG AND ACCESSORIZED WITH A STATEMENT NECKLACE
I often pair this white and white tunics with leggings, jeggings and/or pants. I've had this pair of leopard leggings for as long as I had this blog- and that's a long time. This was the first time I paired this leggings with this tunics, though. This tunics a bit short to be worn on its own, expect if it is to the beach. Well, this time I wore it to the beach but it was for a coffee date and not for swimming. I've closed my swimming season. Not that I managed to do much swimming this summer because my health was bad. However, I can still enjoy the sea breeze and being at the beach. The beach in question here is Žnanj, a great place to hand out any time of the wear.

    Hello Ivana, I hope you're having a nice beginning of the season!

    Same as you I feel a strange melancholia once the weather starts to change, but I have to say i kinda like that feeling and I adore the coziness of autumn, where the weather at least is perfect since a sweater or a light jacket is enough to survive. But I think it was a nice idea to bring a bit of the summer to the first days of autumn with outfits that remind me a little bit of summer days. The blue in both options is incredible but I really love the first one!

    I didn't imagine that the upper part was in fact a dress, but there you have more options to wear this garment and expand its possibilities!

    All the best and sending you good vibes!

    That is such a fun tunic in the second outfit but the first is my favourite, that's a really cute skirt! :)

    Hope your week is going well :)

    Oh, that off the shoulder is so popular here..well, not here here..in the heartland of the states. We are pretty much in track suit season, but I see looks like this trending...at least online. But practically sweater weather here. Wonderful outfits! Yes, leggings and tunics are my go to and lot more long sleeves here.

    Anche a me piace molto passeggiare in autunno: non fa più così tanto caldo come in estate ma è ancora caldo abbastanza da star bene con i vestiti leggeri. E così mi sembra anche di riuscire a sfruttare al meglio il sole ed il bel tempo prima che inizi a far freddo!
    E, dato che sono una grande amante dell'estate, per me più tempo posso mettere i vestiti estivi, meglio è, quindi trovo davvero intelligenti le tue soluzioni!
    Mi piacciono molto entrambi i look, ma forse il primo un pochino di più per via dello scollo asimmetrico del top/vestito che rende tutto più particolare!
    Sei sempre molto originale e stilosa, Ivana!
    Baci!

    I guess since you're in Split you got the contract, that's good for you!
    It's also very hot here to wear these clothes of yours, I confess that this trick of wearing a dress as a top I've never done, but I've been seriously tempted to do it. I liked the first look better. I also really like your animal print leggings, and it feels good on the beach, right?

    Your nod to pink october look is so fun and feminine. I really like it and the one with your leopard leggings made me smile as I have something similar too but the waist band had became loose. It's pretty hot here today so leggings are a no. I'm sorry to hear that you could not swim because of your health. I hope you're taking good care of yourself. Love looking at these pictures and I can see your hair has gotten long! Beautiful :) Take care and have a lovely week ahead <3 xoxo

    I love the time when Summer slowly but surely makes way for Autumn, although preferably not when it's rainy and windy as it has been here in Belgium for the last couple of days.
    I love your trick of wearing a skirt over a dress and your tunic worn with the leopard leggings makes for a very funky outfit! xxx

    I love that the days are still warm, but the nights are cool - this is my favourite time of year. I've done the dress under skirt trick myself - that's a really cool dress, and such a pretty skirt. I hate it when I can't find something on my blog!

    Your tunic looks lovely with the leopard leggings - I really like the turquoise necklace. Enjoy your weekend, my dear!

    Both of these outfits are lovely! I agree that autumn is a melancholy season and it's actually my least favorite (but still gorgeous).

    Predivno je vidjeti kako dočekuješ jesen u ljetnoj gardarobi i kako je još uvijek sunačano i toplo u Splitu. Nekoliko puta sam ga posjetila. Sjećam se tih stepenica s jedne od slika i koliko smo se kolegica smijale kada smo išle njima. Uživaj u divnom vremenu, izgledaš predivno.

    Both outfits are really cute and yes they do look more like summer outfits. It's always nice when it still feels like summer in early autumn when we're not quite ready to bid farewell to the warmer weather yet.

    I definitely remember you saying that gorgeous pink skirt belonged to your mum. It's so lovely and floaty and it reminds me of a dress worn by Maria Von Trapp in the Sound of Music. It looks amazing with the one shoulder top- you look really glamorous, yet comfortable!

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...

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...
