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

 This is what I wore yesterday, an appropriate outfit for a cold, rainy and windy day.  I like to contradict the grayness of the rainy days with some colour. Do you think it is a good idea? What about you?  Do rainy days make you feel melancholic? What kind of outfit can improve your mood? Ovo je što sam nosila jučer, prikladna odjeća za hladan, kišan i vjetrovit dan. Volim proturječiti sivilu kišnih dana sa bojama. Što vi kažete? Mislite li da je to dobra ideja? Čine li vas kišni dani melankoničnim? Što nosite za popravljanje raspoloženja?  HOW I WORE IT BEFORE?

My blog is celebrating its first year of existence today! 365 days, 387 published posts. I didn't have any goals when I've started it, so I cannot measure it up against anything but if nothing else I can say I've been pretty productive as far as the posting and the writing goes. Thank you all so much for your comments and support:) Moj blog danas ima svoj prvi rođendan! 365 dana, 387 objavljenih postova.  Nisam imala ništa u planu kada sam ga počela pa nemam ga sa čim usporediti, ali barem mogu reći da sam bila poprilično produktivna što se tiče objavljivanja i pisanja. Hvala svima na komentarima i potpori:)

I love midi skirts, I really do. This one is a big tricky to walk in as it not allows me to take big steps (or walk crazy fast) as I usually do, but I love it anyway. It's vintage so that is also a plus in my book. The jacket is from outlet store Azel. I have worn it in the last post (and it has made an appearance on this blog many many times) as have these Nosens shoes that are seriously the most comfortable shoes ever. If you're wondering about the magical place- Buna river near Mostar.  Date: last Saturday... Stvarno volim suknje dužine ispod koljena. U ovoj je komplicirano hodati jer ne mogu koračati dugim koracima ni onoliko brzo kao obično, ali svejedno mi jako draga. To što je vintage je za mene samo plus...Jakna je iz Azela, nosim je jako često i u prošlom odjevnom postu...cipele isto stalno nosim, preudobne su... A mjesto snimanja je rijeka Buna pored Mostara prošle subote. LINK UPDATE This post was published years ago. I decided to add a little l...

Now, about this nature park (Hutovo blato) I have written a few times already. However, this time I'm showing you something a bit different, photographs that were taken from one of the rent-able boats that are available for sight seeing purposes. I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed taking photos on that ride that seemed to pass so quickly, like all the good things in life seem to do. It is really serenely calming experience to be on a boat and see only the untouched nature around you. For a moment I have felt like I was in Amazon or rather what I imagine being in Amazon might feel like (for I have sadly never been there and much want to). It was a good day, some 3 years ago if you care to put a  dates on event...I remember just being blissfully happy and calm. Hope you enjoy the photographs. E sada, već sam pisala o Hutovom blatu nekoliko puta, ali ovaj put je ipak nešto drukčije jer su tu fotografije koje su uslikane sa jednog od onih brodo...

This morning there was so much sunshine that I could literally  feel the vitamin D sink into my skin.  Random music in my head...  Foxy lady , Smoke on the water , Три зимы я верила …Mind carried away without a direction like a cloud...leaves dancing in the wind underneath the trees this morning......The warm morning that turned into fresh afternoon... and now fresh afternoon is turning into cold Saturday night...perfect time to enjoy freshly baked muffins and hot tea, wouldn't you agree? Jutros je bilo toliko sunca da sam doslovno mogla osjetiti kako mi se vitamin D upija u kožu. Glazba u mojoj glavi... Foxy lady, Smoke on the water, Три зимы я верила…misli lutaju kao oblaci...lišće što je plesalo na vjetru ispod drveća dok je sunce uljepšavalo jutro...toplo jutro se pretvorilo u svježe popodne, a svježe popodne  polako prelazi u hladnu subotnju večer....savršeno za uživati u još toplim muffinima i čaju, zar ne? fashion illustration
