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

 With temperatures being what they are layering clothes seems to be the only way. At one moment it is sunny and in the next cloudy and really cold. I like the aesthetic aspect of layering, but what appeals to me most of all is the practical side of it.  While I'm outside I can put on my hoodie and zip up and inside I can take some of my numerous layers of clothes off. Just in the case you're wondering how many layers I'm wearing the answer is about four...and if that makes me look like I have a few pounds more I couldn't care less. I was actually going to write something about stripes today but taking in consideration that the stripes on my pants are so subtle that one can hardly notice them (especially on the photos) I'll just say that I love stripes. Now I can wear all the stripes that I want and look as if I'm following trends. Zdravo. Zima je još tu, mjenja raspoloženja kao netko kome su joj dali pogrješne ljekove i ne vidim drugog rješen...

A part of me wishes that I can tell you that the spring is in the air but alas I very much feel the cold.  The other part of me doesn't really care that much about the low temperatures because I know I can always dress warmly. It is not like I have to worry about freezing to death. Cold just means more clothes and more clothes sometimes equals more fun. The glass is always half full, right? Anyway, I think what bugs us about winter is not so much cold as the absence of sun. On a sunny day I always feel like it is spring even when it is cold...and there is more to spring than just warm weather. It is as everything is coming to life again. Still, a part of me responds to the serenity of the winter. How do you feel about it? Dressing colourfully can be just what we need in winter. The photo is taken indoors in company of some M.M posters. Like many, I have a thing for this iconic lady.  Marilyn Monroe said : " A sex symbol becomes a thing. I hate to be a ...

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER VISIT TO MEĐUGORJE! POST UPDATE  I've blogged about Međugorje many times. I will include some links below in case you want to have a look.  STYLING A LEATHER JACKET FOR A VISIT TO MEĐUGORJE (BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA) 2020  DECEMBER 2020 -  https://modaodaradosti.blogspot.com/2020/12/how-to-style-pleated-skirt-in-winter.html MEĐUGORJE- A GREEN OASIS OF PEACE AND QUIET - Being sustainable with travel is another great idea if you are looking to make a difference.

If you're interested to see and learn more about Međugorje, you can also visit my...

You might have noticed that I like to pick a theme when I'm recommending blogs. I just think that makes it more fun. In addition, it makes my decision a bit more easier because there are so many wonderful blogs that I would suggest you check out. This week I've picked the bloggers that have rocked the pattern pants look. Hope you enjoy! Možda ste primjetili da volim izabrati nekakvu temu kad preporučujem blogove, jednostavno smatram da je tako zanimljivije, a i olakšava mi odluku jer ima puno blogova koje vam želim preporučiti. Ovaj tjedan izabrala sam blogerice koje su najbolje složile kombinaciju sa hlačama s uzorkom. http://www.amadeusonthecatwalk.com/2013/02/happy-shopper.html http://milna89.blogspot.com http://crystalcosmicchic.blogspot.com http://indestructiblestyle.blogspot.com http://okomody.blogspot.com Which look is your favourite?

This is pretty much how I imagine paradise. Wearing lots of necklaces and walking on the beach. Sunset in the background, ocean and tiring heat. Yeah, that sounds just about right. What about you? Do you like necklaces? Are you dreaming about summer?  or spring ? xoxo Ovako nekako ja zamišljam raj. Nosim puno ogrlica, šetam plažom, zalaz sunca i ocean u pozadini, a oko mene vrućina koja umara. Da, to zvuči divno. Što vi kažete? Volite li ogrlice? Razmišljate li o ljetu još? Ili možda o proljeću? Ljubim vas:)

I decided not to go with all red today but opted for brownish tones instead. I did wear a red belt because I couldn't just leave red completely out...it is the day of love, right? I really love black necklaces and I haven't worn this necklace in a while... forgot about it, I guess.  sunnies: Chanel, necklace: my creation, sweater: no name, dress: no name, belt: vintage, faux fur: vintage, leggins: DM, above the knee socks (you cannot see them but I had them to make sure I was warm): New Yorker, bag: borsa, shoes: nosens Danas sam se odlučila na kombinaciju smeđih i tamnih tonova, ali ipak sam stavila crveni remen.  Would you like to see how I illustrated and wore this teddy bear/ faux fur coat before?  Želite li vidjeti kako sam nosila i ilustrirala ovaj kaputić od umjetnog krzna (takozvani plišani medvjedić)?  1) SEE HOW I WORE THIS TEDDY BEAR COAT  WITH VINTAGE LEVI'S 501 JEANS IN 2019 2) SEE HOW I WORE THIS FAUX FUR COAT WITH A GREY D...

Again I'm sharing old pics. This is actually the first field trip my darling and I have made together: Buna. For some reason I think ducks are romantic, so I decided to go with these pics and congratulate you Valentine's day. Happy V-day!
