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

Happy third day of summer! Greetings from Jelsa . Has it really been 8 months since I moved to Jelsa on island Hvar (Croatia)? Yes, it has been that long. Sometimes it seems  that the time has just flown by and at other times I feel like I have always lived on this island. There are both pros and cons of living on an island, but I absolutely love it here. It might have something to do with the fact that I have roots here.

I finished the look with a burgundy heels and bag. The beauty of an outfit like this one is that it is appropriate for a variety of occasions. Sometimes I like to keep things simple. HR Sretan drugi dan ljeta! Kako ste? Danas sa vama dijelim ženstvenu ljetnu odjevnu kombinaciju. Mogli bismo je nazvati i proljetnom kombinacijom ali što reći? Zasada je ljeto više kao proljeće.
