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

We're slowly but surely getting adjusted to the arrival of Spring. The promise of Summer is already in the air and it makes us restless. Spring infuses us with a new energy that seems to be very elusive. This energy disappears when we need it, but it haunts us when all we need is a bit of rest. Spring can be a chaotic time, but there is no doubt that there is much beauty in its chaos. Today is Sunday so I shall not take too much of your time. Enjoy your day, enjoy Sunday, enjoy Spring! Polako ali sigurno navikavamo se na dolazak proljeća. Obećanje ljeta je već u zraku i čini nas nemirnima. Proljeće nam daje novu energiju koja je izgleda dosta teška za uhvatiti. Nestaje kada nam treba, a progoni nas kada je sve što nam treba malo odmora. Proljeće zna biti dosta kaotično vrijeme, ali nema sumnje da je u tom kaosu ima puno ljepota. Danas je nedjelja pa vam neću oduzimat previše vremena. Uživajte u danu, uživajte u nedjelji, uživajte u proljeću! dress/haljina: cn direc...

 Introduction Hi there! In this post I will talk about painting with textile paints, something that I do quite often on this blog (that is also the reason why there are so many links in this post, I wanted to link up this post to other relevant posts about this topic). If you're not interested in this topic but rather you just want to look at the outfit, feel free to skip the text this time. Uvod Zdravo! U ovoj objaviti ću pisat o slikanju s tekstilnim bojama, a to je nešto što dosta često radim na ovom blogu ( to je također i razlog zašto ima tako puno poveznica u ovoj objavi, željela sam je povezati s drugim relevantnim objavama o ovoj temi, sve se nalaze u engleskome dijelu teksta jer mislim da nema potrebe za prijevodom riječi "here"). Ako vas tema ne zanima i želite vidjeti samo odjevnu kombinaciju, slobodno ovaj put preskočite sami tekst. How to paint with textile (fabric) paints? Well, as I have explained many times, the process is fairly simple. The...

Today I'm posting more photographs of the outfit you have had the chance of seeing  yesterday (in my style share post with Jennifer). These photographs were taken one very sunny day in Split (and that day was last Tuesday if my memory serves me right). I went to return Yucatan by Andrea de Carlo (wiki link here ) to the library. I didn't really get this novel. Have you read it? What do you think about it? Is there something I missed? It kind of reminded me of On the Road and just like with that novel I felt  it lacks a deeper message. The funny thing is that the author said in the preface how this novel is the one that even his greatest fans don't get. Well, I'm not exactly the greatest fan as this is the first novel of his that I had (at least partially) read, but I didn't understand what it was about...and shockingly, I didn't make it all the way to the last page. I've read most of it, but I gave up towards the end. That rarely happens, usually I'm so...
