What to wear for NYE? This question might not be as existential and thought-provoking as the famous Hamlet question, but nevertheless for many of us right now: this is the question! Today I have a comfortable New Year Eve outfit proposal to share with you. If you're lacking inspiration for NYE, you can always turn to classics such as for example the LBD. Here you can see how I layered one of my little black dresses by wearing a red flared top under it and paired it with flat boots. If you plan to wait for NYE outdoors, an outfit like this one (plus a coat obviously), could work really well.  DRESSING UP A LITTLE BLACK DRESS WITH A STATEMENT HEADBAND AND NECKLACE  My proposal of today features one of 'hot' trends: a headband. I've had this particular headband for ages (proof here , here , here and here ). I decorated it myself by sewing the glittery bit to it by hand, so there is a DIY element for it. The necklace is another one of my creations. I made it when I ...

As the title would imply, this list is highly subjective- that is why I used the personal pronoun in the title. I suppose that any destination list is somewhat subjective, but this one is especially so. My favourite destinations clearly implies that it is all about my personal preference. There are many amazing destinations in Croatia so pay in mind that this list is only about my experiences.  Half of the places on this lists are placed on island Hvar and all of them are in the region of Dalmatia, so clearly there is some nepotism in my choices. I admit to it without hesitation, for as I said, this is a personal list.  In 2019, I have spend a total of four months in Croatia. What were my happy places? What destinations I choose to return to? Today I'll share with you some of my favourite places in Croatia. Where relevant, the photographs are linked up with original posts, you may click them to see and read more. I typically do write something about places I visit...

Hello darlings! I thought it would be fun if I did a little recap with vintage items I have worn the most last year. I love vintage clothes and I think they add something interesting to every outfit. There are so many benefits to wearing vintage clothes, from ecological to practical ones. Vintage items are often quality made, meaning you can rely on them. Moreover, vintage pieces add that sense of history and style to the most simple of our outfits. I often pair my vintage items with my every day items. Typically I don't do the all vintage (historically and period accurate) looks, rather I pair my vintage pieces with modern clothes. So, let's see what items I have worn the most this year. The photographs are linked with the original outfit posts in case you want to see more. Scroll down to see more.  1. A VINTAGE PINK KNIT CARDIGAN  My grandmother was so happy to see me wear this pink knit recently. She was happy I have kept it all these years and so am I. Th...
