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

pencil sketch / skica olovkom One of the trends that really resonates with me is the long vest. Ever since it made its appearance, I found it to be absolutely fascinating. I think this trend will be very present this Spring. Here is my fashion illustration that depicts a  girl wearing a long vest. She paired it with a yellow shirt and rolled up skinny jeans. I always loved the contrast between purple and yellow, so I added purple heels to finish this outfit. Some of my illustrations were featured by a fellow blogger ( link ). Thank you +Leszek Wielgos   Jedan od trendova koji mi se jako sviđa je dugi prsluk. Fascinira me od kada se pojavio. Mislim da će ovaj trend biti jako prisutan ovoga proljeća. Evo moje modne ilustracije koja prikazuje djevojku koja nosi dugi prsluk. Uskladila ga je s žutom košuljom i uskim zavrnutim trapericama. Uvijek mi se sviđao kontrast između žute  i narančaste, pa sam ovu kombinaciju završila s ljubičastim cipelama na ...

Time for another Inspired by feature on my blog. This time I illustrated Natalia ( visit her blog here ).  I really like this outfit. It is bold, beautiful, dressed up and feminine.  You can find the photograph I used as a refrence in this wonderful  post .  Vrijeme je za još jednu Nadahnuta s rubriku na mom blogu. Ovog puta sam ilustrirala Nataliju (posjetite njen blog ovdje).  Jako mi se sviđa ova odjevna kombinacija. Hrabra  je, prelijepa, dotjerana i ženstvena.

This is what I wore for Valentine's Day. It was a suprisingly warm day. Windy, but not cold at all.  I didn't even need a jacket or a coat. Originally, we had planned a getaway, but in the morning a friend called my husband, asking him to help him with finding a wedding saloon for his son's wedding.  Getaway cancelled.  Ovo sam nosila za Valentinovo. Bilo je iznenađujuće toplo. Vjetrovito, ali nimalo hladno. Nije mi bila potrebna ni jakna ni kaput. Zapravo smo planirali negdje otići, ali ujutro je prijatelj zvao moga muža da mu pomogne pronaći salu za sinovo vjenčanje. Planovi otkazani.  I was hoping for a relaxing day, but we ended up with just a few hours for ourselves. I'm not complaining, at least we got to spend some time together and some people don't even managed to do that. Instead of going somewhere, we just hanged out in town and took these photographs. How was your Valentine's day? Nadala sam se provesti opuštajući dan, a na...

We should always celebrate love. We must rememeber there are many types of love and they are all equally important. So, let us celebrate love today.  Not just love between a man and a women,  but love in all shapes and forms. Let celebrate the love we feel for our friends and family...and just as important is the love we should have for ourselves. Let this angel with purple wings watch over you....and remember : love makes us stronger! At times love hurts, but in order to grow wings, we must endure the pain. Happy Saint Valentine's day! Trebamo uvijek slaviti ljubav. Moramo se sjetiti da postoji puno vrsta ljubavi i da su sve jednako važne. Stoga, slavimo ljubav danas. Ne samo ljubav između muškarca i žene, nego ljubav u svim oblicima i formama. Slavimo ljubav koji osjećamo za prijatelje i obitelj...i jednaku važnu ljubav koju bi trebali imati prema sebi. Neka vas ovaj anđeo s ljubičastim krilima pazi...i zapamtite: ljubav nas čini jačima! Ponekad ljubav boli, ali moramo ...

It was raining when these photographs were taken and the weather was rather gloomy, but I didn't mind. Can you guess why? Recently I've talked about my love for patterns and prints. Well, I'm feeling quite happy right now because I received two dresses from dresslink. Both of them are exactly my cup of tea. It feels so nice to slip into a cute dress. It always make me feel more feminine and lady like. That would be all for today. Have a great weekend!  Kišilo je kada su ove fotografije uslikane i vrijeme je bilo poprilično sumorno, ali nije me bilo briga. Možete li pogoditi zašto? Nedavno sam pričala o svojoj ljubavi prema uzorcima. Danas sam poprilično sretna jer sam dobila dvije haljine od dresslinka. Obje su baš po mome guštu. Lijep je osjećaj nositi neku slatku haljinu. Odmah se osjećam ženstveno i više kao dama. Ugodan vikend!  post update: Another way to wear this pattern dress. This polka dot pattern with roses is so chic! striped dress/haljina na prugice...
