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

It is time for another Inspired by feature on my blog. This feature consists of my illustrations, paintings or drawings of fashion bloggers. I'm trying to make this feature a daily one, perhaps that is a tad bit too ambitious, but it would be pretty cool if I could orgazine something like that. What do you think about it? How do you like this feature? How often would you like to see it? Every day? Or is a few times a month enough? How about my other fashion illustrations? How often would you like to see them? Would you like to see more of them in one post or only one illustration per post? I know I'm asking a lot of questions today, but I'm looking for some feedback. I'm interested in what my readers think about this little place of my own. So, tell me what do you want to see on this blog in the future? More illustrations or more outfit posts? More travel posts or more DIY stuff? Let's get back to this drawing. As you can see the medium is coloured pencils on pape...

Fairy tales have always fascinated me.I supposed it could be told that both the 'fairy and the 'tale' in fairytale are equally interesting to me because these two aspects fascinate me  a great deal. The first aspect is the 'fairy' part and the second is the 'tale' part. Let's talk about the 'fairy' aspect. By that I mean the mythological or the fantasy aspect of fairy tales. Mythology is somewhat of a hobby of mine, I always loved researching it, for it teaches us not only to understand different cultures and people, but also how to make connections and see how all the nations and people have so much in common. If you spend enough time reading fairy tales, you'll find matching themes in all of them. There are myths that all cultures seem to share, for example the myth about the creation of world. Another aspect of fairy tales that I love has to do with storytelling. That would be the 'tale' in the 'fairy tale'. I always loved...

Hi! Today my illustrations are inspired by Tijana, from fashionabejita blog. Isn't she just a ray of sunshine in this yellow maxi dress? I love seeing yellow worn in Summer. It is like carrying sun with us. The medium is coloured pencil on paper. As you may have noticed, I've been drawing a lot lately. I miss painting, but one can say that I felt the need to come back to basics and that means doing more drawings and sketches. So, my fashion illustrations have become fashion drawings. I've also continuing my experimentation with using make up for painting and drawing. That means you can expect more make up paintings and illustrations in the future. I've been thinking of putting my outfit posts on hold and focusing only on publishing my art. What do you think? What would you prefer to see: outfits, illustrations or both? Zdravo! Danas su moje ilustracije nadahnute Tijanom, s bloga fashionabejita . Zar nije kao zraka sunca u ovoj žutoj maksi haljini? Volim vidjeti ...

                                                  Purple and red together? Why not? Why not indeed? Life is full of surprises and that's the best thing about it. From those surprises, true love is the sweetest one. It is always unexpected, unpredictable and inifitely precious precisely because of that. Let's forget the modern cynicism. Can not two beings love one another? Yes they can and they will. That is the most wonderful thing. Cannot a weak man love an ugly woman?( The Book of Laughting and Forgiveness, Milan Kundera ) Can not a spoiled woman love a cruel man? (Wuthering Heights. Emily Bronte) Cannot the two most selfish people in history of literature and film love one another?( Gone with the wind, Margaret Mitchwell) Cannot a broken man love a tomcat? ( The Door into Summer, R. A. Heinein) Cannot a militant nihlist love an i...

B is for beautiful. B is for beach, B is for bikini, B is for breath-taking views. B is for a busy bee that deserves a vaction, My fashion illustrations have decided to pack their bags and go on a vacation. They want to spend some time on the beach, soak in the sun and make most of the Summer. I hope you don't mind guys. Today's fashion illustrations are all about that eternal classic: the bikini. Do you like bikinis? Do you wear them? What kind of swimwear do you prefer? Nazdravimo! Za ljepotu. Za plažu. Za bikini. Za vidike koji oduzimaju dah! Za marljivu pčelicu koja je zaslužila svoj odmor. Moje modne ilustracije su odlučila spakirati svoje torbe i otići na odmor. Žele provesti malo vremena na plaži, uživati u suncu i iskoristi ljeto do maksimuma. Nadam se da vam to ne smeta. Današnje modne ilustracije su o jednom ljetnom klasiku: bikiniju. Volite li bikinije? Nosite li ih? Kakve kupaće kostime volite?

Hi! How are you? It is Summer, time for parties and vacations. It is the season of taking it easy, relaxing and having fun. Don't we all want to look fantastic while we're feeling great and having fun? We want our looks to match our mood. Summer is, for many of us, time to enjoy ourselves, visit our family, attend weddings and others special occasions, be more social and generally speaking go out a bit more often. Well, I haven't done any clubbing in ages, but you get what I mean. No matter what our age is, we have more opportunities to wear fabulous dresses during the Summer. Most of us ladies like to doll up for those warm Summer nights because as they say, you only live once. Today I will to talk about babyonlinedress.com site, where you can find wedding and special occasion dresses. This is a place where you can find beautiful gowns at factory prices.  Besides providing you with a variety of sizes, this site also offers the opportunity of having your dress custom made....

How do you feel about short hair? Do you like it or not? I've always loved short hair, I'm just not sure it looks good on me. Long hair is so much easier to maintain, not to mentioned how pricy those weekly visits to hairdresser can be. If one is wearing a pixie or a really short hairdo, it means visiting your hair stylist at least once in two weeks. If you're thinking about cutting your hair really short, find a good hairdresser because you'll be seeing a lot of her or him. The last time I had really short hair was when I was 13, so that's quite a time ago. I can't say that I've been thinking of cutting my hair short lately (I guess I'm just a long hair kind of girl), but I've been thinking about short hairdos a lot.  Some girls really rock that short hair look! Basically, I find short hairdos to be quite inspirational, hence the drawing of the day.  A girl with short hair and glasses. I don't draw hairdos often, but I've always loved hai...
