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

Here comes the new illustration in my Inspired by  feature. This one was inspired by Alice from So Alice blog (you can check it out here ). The medium is watercolour and pencil on paper. If you want to see the outfit that inspired this illustration, you can find it here . I really like this look. The bag and the boots match perfectly. The cold shoulder sweater is adorable and pairing it with skinny jeans was a good choice. This is such a lovely street style outfit. Evo nove ilustracije u Nadahnuta s  rubrici. Ova je nadahnuta s Alice s bloga So Alice ( možete ga pogledati ovdje ). Medij su vodene boje i olovka na papiru. Želite li vidjeti odjevnu kombinaciju koja je nadahnula ovu ilustraciju, možete je pronaći ovdje . Jako mi se sviđa ova kombinacija. Torba i čizme se odlično slažu. Džemper otvorenih ramena je presladak, a mislim da je bila dobra odluka nositi ga iz uske traperice. Odlična kombinacija za svaki dan.

I always loved ports. The infinite sea that seems to be calling out to us. To a traveller (or anyone suffering from wanderlust) every ship looks like Noah’s ark. A vessel to our dreams.  If you love sea travel, you probably also love ports. No wonder that Joseph Conrad was a love at a first read for me.  He always wrote so beautifully about the sea. I came back from Split today but while I was there I haven’t even had the time to go for a stroll. I miss those long walks by the sea. I did manage to buy presents for Saint Lucia (known in English also as saint Lucy). I will write about the custom related to this day some other time because tonight I’m too tired. I’m not sure about the name of the painting that inspired this watercolour of mine. It is just something we did at art class. Painting reproductions is good practice, I would say. I think I have learned a few things so far. Speaking of this painting, one of the art teacher there showed me how to make the col...

Hello everyone! Time for another fashion illustration of mine. Today I'm posting an illustration inspired by Ivonne (Iwona) from crafty zone blog ( check out her blog here ). Isn't this dress adorable? This illustration was inspired by this outfit. I think it is a beautiful Autumn look. The medium is watercolour and pencil on paper. Zdravo svima! Vrijeme je za još jednu modnu ilustraciju. Danas objavljujem ilustraciju nadahnutu s Ivonne s crafty zone bloga( pogledajte njen blog ovdje ). Zar nije ovo haljina preslatka? Ova ilustracija je nadahnuta  s ovom kombinacijom. Mislim da je to prekrasan jesenski modni odabir. Medij su vodene boje i olovka na papiru.  http://crafty-zone.blogspot.hr/2016/11/thrifted-autumnal-dress.html POST UPDATE 2025 Inspired by continued to be a regular feature on my blog!

Sunday is for simplicity. Taking our time to drink our morning coffee. Taking the time to smell the roses (In my case there is only one rose in the vase, but it is making me infinitely happy. I love it when my roses blossom in Autumn and Winter. It is very nice of them I think. Every time I see a new bud in my garden, it is such a pleasant surprise). Sunday is for those little pleasures in life. We should always be ready to meet them, but Sunday somehow makes it easier for us. Living in the now. Spending time with love ones. Spending time doing things we love. Tell me, what does Sunday mean to you? Nedjelja je za jednostavnost. Uzimanje više vremena za popiti tu jutarnju kavu. Uzimanje vremena za pomirisati ruže (U mom slučaju je samo jedna u vazi, ali i ona me neizmjerno veseli. Volim kada moje ruže cvjetaju u jesen i zimu. To je baš lijepo od njih. Svaki put kada vidim novi pupoljak u svome vrtu to je tako ugodno iznenađenje). Nedjelja je za ta mala zadovoljstva u životu. Uvi...

This fashion illustration was inspired by one runway look from Dolce & Gabbana 2014 Winter collection. Do you remember that collection?  Wasn't it beautiful? It has got to be one of my  favourite collections of all times. Well, I obviously still love it- hence the illustration. The medium is  mixed (as you probably can see), it is a combination on pencil and watercolours on paper. How do you like this illustration? I think this might be the first time I illustrated a designer's runaway look. I'm not sure why it never occurred to me to do it before. Well, there is a first time for everything. You might end up seeing more of these. I might take a liking to this sort of illustration. I won't write a long test today, because I don't won't to steal time from your weekend. Thanks for reading! Have a lovely weekend! xoxo Ova modna ilustracija je nadahnuta jednom kreacijom iz Dolce & Gabbana kolecije za zimu 2014. Sjećate li se te kolekcije? Zar nije bila p...
