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

Do my wings look too big? Jesu li mi krila prevelika? This little sketch came to be when an idea came to my mind....It was when I thought how ridiculous it would seem if you had an angel second guessing her/his/its (pick the pronoun you prefer) most prominent feature- the wings. However, isn't that what most people do on daily basis? Question and second guess the way they look? Complain about the way their body looks like?  What fascinates me in today's world is that somehow everyone is made to feel bad about the way they look. No matter your body type or size, there is constant presumption that you have to change something in order to look good and be attractive. However, this ideal body seems elusive at best. How can we define it? If one is skinny one is constantly suspected of suffering from some kind of eating disorder. You are always reminded what a bad example you are for others and made to feel guilty....and if you're not skinny than you must be doing ...

April had been a pretty productive month for me. I decided not to include all the outfits in this recap because that would just take up too much space (besides I didn't have time to publish them all), instead of that I picked up a few photos that represent this month for me as well and some of my illustrations and DIY. Travanj je bio poprilično produktivan mjesec za mene. Nisam u ovaj sažetak uključila sve odjevne kombinacije jer bi to zauzelo previše mjesta (a nisam ih sve ni objavila), umjesto toga odabrala sam par fotografija koje mi predstavljaju ovaj mjesec kao i neke svoje ilustracije i uradi sam projekte. necklaces that I have made this month illustrations  a ring and a bracelet that I have won in a giveaway hosted by Kizzy sketches and illustrations I love my hoodie moment fashion illustrations home made Easter decorations and Easter day outfit my sketches and illustrations DIY shoes illustration inspired by Te...

Dream big and don't be afraid to boldly go where no one has gone before...  fashion illustration/  modna ilustracija Today's fashion illustration comes with a credo 'Dream big'. I've noticed that I'm starting to become a person who is always preparing herself for the worst...and while there is nothing wrong in being realistic and facing the facts (which sometimes in life translated as  facing the ugly truth) we should never let that stop us from keeping a part of our spirit insanely optimistic. In other words: dream big. Dare to believe that you can become your best possible self. We life in a tough world and sometimes in order to survive we really need to be insane optimists, at least part-time. The outfits I have portrayed  in the illustration are fun, playful and feminine. Perhaps that is what I've been looking for in clothes recently...a way to have some fun really:) The full skirts that were popular in the 50ties are back in and there is...

Hi lovelies! How is your day? Mine was off to a rather bad start (I woke up with a fever and things were rather downhill from there, I forgot to copy the today's lesson on my USB and I didn't figure it out until I came to the copy shop so I had to run back home to get and I mean literally sprint while people stared at me in bewilderment probably wondering why is this woman running like crazy? Good news is that now I know I can run 3km under 10 minutes. Naturally while I was coming home from school it was raining and I had to drag heavy grocery bags because I have promised to bake a cake for a wedding... ) but I do hope things will improve and that my day won't end in a disaster or something. Onto brighter topics... Today I have prepared a rather simple DIY for you.  What happens when you like a pair of shoes? You wear them a lot obviously! What happens when you wear a pair of shoes often? They get worn out, especially if you walk for miles daily like myself.  I...

I will always love you/ Uvijek ću te voljeti Vjetar se svezati ne može----You cannot tie down the wind Picnic in the mountains/ piknik u planinama Spring in the city/ Proljeće u gradu spring/ summer 2014 spring/summer orange and pink blue lady/ plava dama I've been doing a lot of sketching and drawing recently but I haven't completed a single painting. Oil paints and canvases will just have to wait until I can have several hours of leisure at my disposal.  Puno skiciram i crtuckam u zadnje vrijeme, ali nisam dovršila nijednu sliku. Uljane boje i platna će jednostavno morati pričekati dok ne budem mogla spojiti nekoliko sati u komadu da se toga uhvatim.
