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

Hi, how have you been? I need a little help. This Thursday I have my graduation ceremony (master degree) and I haven't yet decided what to wear. The photographs I'm sharing are from my b.a degree graduation ceremony that was two years ago. My outfit for that day was a no brainier, as I already knew that I would continue my studies so I didn't feel it was a big deal. I went for all black and my main preoccupation was being warm as it was winter. I went for a silk shirt and a black pencil skirt. As simple as it gets. However, this time I would like to wear something a bit more interesting and at the same time I don't want to be over the top as it is not my private celebration. Any suggestions, my friends?

  I'm wearing a blazer! Finally, it is warm enough to go out without a jacket. Today I went for a classical (and hopefully) elegant look and only toyed with patterns in a subtle way (that is I incorporated patterns with my snake print shoes and tights).  My destination today was river Buna but as you can see on the photos, the river flooded( and blocked my way.) At least the ducks were having a blast! Moreover, I think I actually like the way nature (and rivers) are unpredictable. As I said  before, when there had been so much rain this kind of thing  is unavoidable.  So, I had some tea in a restaurant near by and enjoyed the view. Nosim sako! Konačno je dovoljno toplo da se odbaci jakna i nosi samo sako. Danas sam odabrala klasičnu ( i nadam se elegantnu) odjevnu kombinaciju i samo se malo zaigrala sa uzorcima (zmijske cipele i najlonke).  Moje je odredište danas bila rijeka Buna, ali kao što možete vidjeti na fotografijama, izlila se i potopila mi put. N...

As one of the illustrations is showing, it is raining. Is the spring fashionably late? or just too late? What is your opinion? The other illustrations are inspired by vintage style, especially this car that just scream Gatsby to me. I'm not quite sure is it an actual model from the infamous Jazz age ( I was inspired by a random photo) but it looks like it is. xoxo Lipi moji, danas sam ispekla pet, šest pita (krompirača, sirnica itd), a kiša pada i pada. Dijelim neke svoje ilustracije. Neke su nadahnute starinskim stilom, kao ovaj autić gore, a neke su komentar na kašnjenje proljeća. Je li proljeće zakasnilo ukosno ili neukusno? Što vi mislite?

I'm back in Mostar. The river you see behind me is almost overflowing the city and with all the rain that has been faling it is only to be expected. The wind made my hair look even more messy but what can you do? My oufit today is more or less playing it safe. I feel that I can never go wrong with this gorgeous leather jacket. Seriously I feel like a terminator in this jacket. The bag is vintage. I remember wearing it in elementary school but I'm pretty sure it was old back then, so calling it vintage only makes sense.  As to DIY...I had bought this olive earring in accessories (my shopping ban doesn't include jewellery ) and with the help of Farmasi nailpolish (they have great shades but the quality is not so great, it doesn't last long on the nails, but it's good for DIY projects) I painted little flowers on them. What do you think? Naravno opet pada kiša. Naravno počela je padati kad sam izvadila odjeću  iz perilice i stavila na sušenj...

Assisi was the last city that I had visited on my recent trip to Italy. It is such  a beautiful city and so rich in history. The  location of the city is wonderful, it is surrounded by nature. Simply said,  I was truly amazed by Assisi. I hope to return there some day. There was one special black cat that stole my heart. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to take him with me as it would be impossible to get him trough customs. Some basic info from wikipedia: " Assisi   ( Italian pronunciation:  [asˈsiːzi] , from the   Latin :   Asisium ) is a   town   and   comune   of Italy in the   province of   Perugia   in the   Umbria region , on the western flank of   Monte Subasio . It was the birthplace of  St. Francis , who founded the  Franciscan   religious order  in the town in 1208, and  St. Clare  ( Chiara d'Offreducci ), the founder of the Poor Sisters, wh...
