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

watercolour/ akvarel

Green with a touch of gold and silver...Perhaps I'm trying to mimic Autumn. Perhaps that is what we all do...Trying to keep up with the beauty of nature and the mysterious way it changes every seasons. Perhaps we even envy the nature for its eternal youth....forgetting that we're its part. This outfit is quite similar to my  first November look (same dress and blouse). Wearing a summer dress in Autumn? Nothing I haven't done before. All it takes is a bit of layering.... Zelena sa dodatkom zlatne i srebrne...možda pokušavam oponašati jesen. Možda to svi radimo...pokušavamo držati korak sa ljepotom prirode i misterioznim načinom na koji se mijenja svake sezone. Možda čak i zavidimo prirodi na njenoj vječnoj mladosti..zaboravljajući da smo njen dio. Odjevna kombinacija je dosta slična mojoj prvoj kombinaciji ovog studenog (ista haljina i bluza). Nošenje ljetne haljine u jesen? Ništa novo za mene. Sve što je potrebno je malo slojevitog odjevanja... Coat/ Kaput:...

At some point in our lives we stop and realize we're not as afraid as we once were...Time has come to cast fears aside, at least some of them, at least for now...and this feeling warms us like sunlight on a cold winter day. It is unexpected but very much welcome...and silently we rejoice in this temporary oasis of calm , making most of it while it lasts....and we go on with hope in our heart. U jednom trenutku u životu stanemo i shvatimo da se ne bojimo kao nekada...Došlo je vrijeme da ostavimo strahove sa strane, barem neke od njih, barem na neko vrijeme...i taj nas osjećaj zagrije kao sunce zimskog dana. Neočekivanom, ali vrlo dobro došlo...i tiho se radujemo toj privremenoj oazi mira, uživajući sasvim u tom osjećaju dok traje...i  nastavljamo sa nadom u srcu.

water colours/ vodene boje This illustration is a bit fairy tale like. I can still imagine this as an actual ( and quite fabulous) gown (cape, gold feathers and all), though. What do you think? Ova ilustracija je malo više bajkovita. Ipak mogu zamisliti ovo kao divnu večernju haljinu (uz plašt, zlatno perje i sve to). Što vi mislite?

  (I have tied my DIY necklace where originally a bow was placed- just in case you've seen this necklace before and now you wonder how it ended up  attached on the dress) Do you ever get dress up just to make  yourself feel better? Today I did just that. I was feeling pretty down so I tried on this blue dress  that I've picked up from some store (price tag 5 euros)  while I was waiting for a friend to meet me- apart from that I don't remember when was a last time I bought a clothing item. Here is a fashion blogger that admits she doesn't like shopping! Let's call this outfit my version of a school girl uniform so I could have an excuse to join miss Papelicos  share in style ...theme of this one is Halloween ... I wanted to join in but as I don't really celebrate Halloween, this will have to be my compromise. Je li ponekad nešto obučete da bi si popravili raspoloženje? Danas sam upravo to napravila. Osjećala sam ...
