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

Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! How's life treating you? Today I'll show you a transitional styling suitable for early Autumn. Every outfit can tell a story really. I'm wearing an old graphic tee with a horse print (more tips about styling a graphic tee here  and here ). Quite an old tee this one, I bought it as a young teen (so many years ago) with money earned picking figs in summer. The yellow tartan skirt is vintage , inherited from my mother. I always get questions about it. I'm sure I'd never get tired of wearing it. A fabulous piece for sure. I wore tights and startas sneakers with the yellow skirt for warmth and comfort. I also wore a cap and a second hand denim shirt. We did some hiking on this particular occasion or rather attempted to it. We had to end our hike early as it has started to rain. We like hiking near beach Soline . As you may remember, Vrboska is located in a long and narrow bay. Both sides offer great hiking opportunities. Vrboska...

It's been a while since my last reading update, hasn't it? If you enjoy book reviews, you are welcome to visit my other book review and reading update posts, for example here . I might not have been updating you about my reads as of late, I didn't stop reading, that's for sure. I have been a bookworm all my life and I see no reason to stop being one. Today I'll review two novels and two collection of short stories, so let's get started.  MONSOON,  NOVEL BY WILLIAM SMITH  1/5 Usually I have good luck with books but occasionally  I do come across  I book I dislike or right down hate. Monsoon by Willian Smith was a book that not only disappointed me, but angered me. Feel free to skip reading this review because it is definitely not a book recommendation , more an explanation why I was so horrified with it. I'm tempted not to write about it at all because there is not much to discuss. In my view, this is a low quality book. The writing is sensationalistic and t...

We're continuing with fashion sustainable posts on my blog.  I do believe that shopping our closets is one of the best ways to be  more sustainable and green in our fashion choices. Today we'll share 20 outfits featuring a long green vest. Some of these outfits you have had the chance of seeing on this blog already while some of them are new. When I picked up this vest in a random supermarket (really!) for something like ten euros, I had no idea how much wear I'll get out of it. I rarely make impulsive buys, but when I do, I usually make them worth while. I do honestly believe that it is not about how many clothes you have in your closet as it is about knowing what works for you. Today I'm sharing what worked for me by posting about twenty ways to wear a long green vest. Let's get this party started! OUTFIT PROPOSAL #1: AN OLIVE VEST PAIRED WITH A PINK TOP, JEGGINGS, BELT AND BIKER BOOTS.  These kind of comfy outfits are perfect for transitional weather and autumn w...
