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

What is your choice on a cold winter day: a puffer or a long coat? Which one is warmer? Koji je vaš izbor za hladni zimski dan: debela jakna ili dugački kaput? Što je toplije? Neću puno pričati (tipkati) danas, umjesto toga  evo još par fotografija zime u Splitu koja je na moje zadovoljstvo, većinom sunčana ovih dana. I won't talk (type) much today. Here is a few more photos of Split during winter. To my great satisfaction, winter in Split has been a good sport( lots of sunny day). I want to thank everyone for commenting. It does mean a lot to me and it makes me smile:) Have a wonderful day, filled with love and joy. Želim se svima zahvaliti na komentiranju. Doista mi puno znači i donosi osmijeh na lice. Želim vam prekrasan dan, ispunjen ljubavlju i radošću.

 I tako dovršila sam kolet( ovratnik) košulje, ušila još zlatnih botuna( dugma) i sada mi boje(bolje) izgleda.   So I finished up the collar  on that white shirt (the last post was about that among other things), decorated it with a few more golden bottons, I believe it looks better now. What do you think? Does it look o.k? Što vi mislite, je li sada kako treba? Oprostite na ovom pospanom izgledu, ove dvije su snimljene jučer navečer. Evo i par slija (fotografija)  bora (tehnički gledano jelke ili jele, ali provjerila sam u hrvatskom se može kazati Božični bor čak i kad je drugo drvo u pitanju)...  Here are a few photos of a Christmas tree:

 No. 1- one of the most comfortable shoes I ever had.  ( Emphasis on the "had" because ever since I took them to the shoemaker they haven't been the same. I don't know what he had done with them, I just needed to replace the heel top, but someone he managed to make them unstable. Anyway, if you find a similar model I recommend  you buy them. ) I wish I could buy them anew but I doubt I will find them in the store I got them in.  No.2. blue blouse. You know how there are some items of clothing that you fall in love at first sight? This shirt I bought at second hand shop and it goes well with almost everything, it's very easy to style. I love the material and the design. Do you shop at second hand shops? I do, but not very often. Actually, this year I did it for the first time. No. 3 Jeans. I know, it's kind of obvious but denim is the most familiar blue in our lives, right? It is as present in our lives as the sky above. ....and now, one ...

I had a really long day today. So, this evening I decided to design and make a ring for my self.  Lately I've been into the gold trend and I like how the gold looks with white so that was the main idea behind it...I wanted a statement ring, imagined it as something big and a little bit messy. When you look at photos you can tell me what you think.  What to do you need to make  a ring anyway? Hm, that depends on what you want. Maybe one day I'll write about different techiniques for making jewelry but not today. For now, I'll just tell you what I used: a ring intended for DIY(bought a lot of them for practically nothing), fabrics and a gold-white button. I also used a needle and thread but I guess that goes without saying. Danas sam imala naporan dan pa sam odlučila osmisliti i napraviti  upečatljiv prsten, htjela sam da je velik i pomalo neuredan, a pošto mi se sviđa kako se bijela slaže s zlatnom, to mi je bila nit vodilja. Koristila sam prsten koji je i...

What a perfect winter day it was today! So sunny and lovely...I don't have a lot to say about my outfit, I had so many things to do in the morning/afternoon so it was all pretty simple, I was definetly feeling warm in this whitish puffer and my wool beret. btw I think I have adjusted to my new hair colour. xoxo

                                                   LADY IN RED My post today is about street style in Split (my hometown) and more specifically about women in read coats. I love the trend of coloured coats in the winter, red in particular because red is such an eye cather. In addition, red coats are so feminine.  Do you agree?  I've took the photos this morning and I have to say that I like the look of all the ladies in red.  Danas idemo ulicama grada Splita i  s vama podijelit ću slike dama u crvenim kaputima. Jako mi se sviđaju kaputi u bojama, pogotovo crveni kaputi jer jednostavno privlače pogled, a i jako su  ženstveni. Slažete li se?   Jutros sam slikala ove slike i moram reći kako mi se sviđa izgled svih ovih dama u crvenom.
