1 BLACK COAT, 2 LOCATIONS, 3 WINTER OUTFITS (BIH)

Hello! In this post, I shall share three all black winter outfits. I haven't decided for how long I'll wear black for mourning. With my personal style gravitating towards colours and patterns, it feels unusual to wear only black and I do miss wearing colour.  Moreover, the number of black clothing items in my closet is somewhat limited. I own most of those classical pieces  that are sometimes called wardrobe essentials: a black coat, two black suits, a few LBDs, a black maxi/midi dress, two pairs of black jeans (all of my dark jeans are flared, though) and a leather jacket. Plus, I own a few black clothing items that are not exactly classics. So, I'm working with those clothing items at the moment. You'll probably have a chance to see every black item from my closet in the next week or so. Wearing black right now feels right. That's good enough reason for me.

Zdravo! U ovom postu podijelit ću tri potpuno crne zimske odjevne kombinacije. Nisam odlučila koliko ću dugo nositi crninu. S obzirom na moj osobni stil koji gravitira prema bojama i uzorcima, neobično mi je nositi samo crninu i nedostaje mi nošenje boja. Štoviše, broj crnih odjevnih predmeta u mom ormaru je donekle ograničen. Posjedujem većinu onih klasičnih komada koji se ponekad nazivaju nužnim za svaku garderobu: crni kaput, dva crna odijela, nekoliko crnih haljina (dugih, kratkih i ispod koljena), dva para crnih traperica (ipak, sve moje tamne traperice su zvonskog kroja) i kožnu jaknu. Osim toga, posjedujem nekoliko crnih odjevnih predmeta koji nisu baš klasični. Dakle, trenutno stvaram odjevne kombinacije s tim predmetima. Vjerovatno ćete vidjeti svaki crni odjevni predmet koji imam tijekom idućeg tjedna i kasnije. Nositi crno zasada mi se čini ispravno. To je za mene dovoljno dobar razlog.


LOCATION #1 MOSTAR CITY
We spotted this 'new to us' Einstein mural during our walk,  so we had to take a photograph. Mostar has amazing street art.  In fact, I'm planning to make a post devoted to Mostar street art one of these days.  Mostar city hosts an International Street Art festival annually. Therefore, many of buildings are painted by international artists. It's cool being in a city with so much street art. 
OUTFIT NUMBER #1

    The other day I wore some black and my husband kept commenting how he wasn't used to it on me. That's how I feel with you Ivana. I miss all of your wonderful color combinations.

    You look good in black so you should keep wearing it as long as it feels right for you! It's a nice black coat and it works well with your black outfit.

    Hope that you are having a great weekend :)

    Although it is indeed unusual to see you wearing so much black, it definitely suits you, and if wearing black feels right to you, than that's what you should do.
    I'm loving the Einstein mural! xxx

    Anche io metto molto raramente look interamente neri, però bisogna ammettere che sono una scelta comoda per quando si ha poco tempo (o poca voglia) per decidere cosa indossare!
    I tuoi look mi piacciono tutti e 3, effettivamente sono meno appariscenti dei tuoi soliti outfit colorati ma non per questo meno belli, sei molto elegante in tutte e 3 le versioni!
    Mi piacciono soprattutto i pantaloni flared, sono molto cool e ti stanno davvero bene! :)
    Baci!

    These outfits look so chic.You would blend right in New York where head to toe black outfits are de rigueur. I always feel like I stick out since I also gravitate towards color. I'm so sorry for your reasons for currently wearing black.

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 ...

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...
