Book recommendation (and review) of the day / Preporuka knjige ( i ogled) dana : Pavao Pavličić, Melem

Image
Today we're going to talk about Melem, a novel by Pavao Pavlichich. This Croatian writer has (so far) published 95 books (most of them are novels), so he must be doing something right when it comes to writing. His works have been translated to German, French, Czech,  Slovakian, Slovenian, Rumanian, Bulgarian, Macedonian and Danish language.  Pavao, for me, is one of those authors whose works you're certain you will like even before you start reading them. I always end up liking his novels. Nevertheless, I must admit that his novels don't move me as deeply as works by some other Croatian writers. That being said, I do admire his prociency as a writer and the abudance of his writing imagination. Danas ćemo pričati o Melemu, romanu Pavla Pavličića. Ovaj je hrvatski pisac izdao (do sada) 95 knjige ( većina njih su romani), tako da mu pisanje očito dobro ide. Njegova djela su prevođena na njemački, francuski, češki, slovački, slovenski, rumunjski, bugarski, makedonski i...

How to style flare sleeves? (first Autumn outfit)/ Kako nositi široke rukave? (Prva jesenska kombinacija)

Image
We're back in Mostar. The question of the day is how to style flare sleeves. Blouses, shirts and tops with flare sleeves are growing in popularity. Now that the Autumn has arrived, this type of flared long sleeves might be just what we need to bright up our days a little. Everyone loves a little flare. So, how should we go about it? How to style flare sleeves for every day? When it comes to every day wear, I always recommend denim. Pairing a flared sleeved blouse with a denim skirt will give a casual note to your outfit. If you want to make the outfit a bit more feminine, I recommend wearing heels. I chose my DIY pom pom sandals with high heels. How do you like this look? The location is, as I said Mostar. In fact, I already talked about this bridge and location in this post  so no need to repeat myself.  P.S. I cut my hair in a long bob but since my hair grows so fast it already grew out a bit. Evo nas opet u Mostaru. Pitanje dana je kako nositi široke rukave. Bl...

Sights to see, Places to visit: Lake Blidinje/ Mjesta za posjetiti, znamenitosti za vidjeti : jezero Blidinje

Image
Today we shall talk about Lake Blidinje. As the name would imply, this lake is located in the nature park Blidinje. It is the largest mountain lake in Bosnia and Herzegovina, located at an elevation of 1.885 meters (3.888 feet). I personally haven't seen a mountain lake of this size before. There is something almost surreal about seeing a lake in mountains, especially at this kind of altitude. I wonder is anyone  brave enough to swim in there. Maybe I will dare it some other time. This lake isn't very deep, its maximal dept is about 3 meters and its average dept is only 0.5 m. Its width and length are a bit over 2 km, but these two can vary depending on weather conditions. I can tell you that this lake was a very impressive sight. Anyhow, you will get to tour it too, at least virtually, because today I will show you lake Blidinje from different angles. These photographs were taken on two locations, one right next to the lake and the second one a bit higher above (on those phot...
