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

Hello friends, how are you? I'm alright, albeit a bit tired. I have been struggling with insomnia lately and frankly it's been exhausting. However, last night I managed to get my eight hours of sleep and I'm feeling better already. Therefore, I'm back with a new post. This time I will show you 17 ways to style a pair of flared jeans. This post will be a mix of some of my newer outfits as well as old ones.  Browsing my recent outfits, I realized that there is a pair of jeans that I have worn quite a  few times this month. I don't normally wear jeans on every day basis, but sometimes I do reach for them.  It is not that I hate jeans, but I'm more a skirt or a dress kind of gal. When it comes to jeans, I prefer bell bottom and flare cut. I suppose that the same can be said for trousers. I don't have a lot of straight cut trousers, mostly they are of wide or flared design. I don't have a single pair of skinny jeans and never plan to wear them. I remember tha...

Time for another edition of  Travel with My Art.   The reason why I decided to start this feature on my blog was to give people an opportunity to travel with my art. Sure, we can travel digitally with photographs and videos, but there is something special about seeing a painting of a place and knowing that it was painted or illustrated. Every art medium brings something special to the game and gives us another opportunity to try to capture what we feel with our soul. As much as I appreciate, love and respect photography as an art form, I think that I will always be more a painter than a photographer. I shared a lot of my photograph (as well as those of my husband) on this blog, but I also share a lot of my art.   I illustrated different places and locations in the past, but something about this pandemic and the inability (of most people) to travel made me realize that perhaps I should dig into it a bit more. So far, I have illustrated mostly places and locations that...

 Hello there!  You know I live for that 'be a tourist in your own city' concept.  I was an advocate of local travel long before the pandemic changed the way people travel (see this post from 2015  to see what I mean). Today I'll  show you some pretty areas in Mostar city. In fact, you could say that we'll stroll around the city together. Sure, I blogged about these places before, but one more time won't hurt because Mostar truly  is a stunning city. If nothing else, river Neretva is enough to take one's breath away. Since I'm currently based in this town, it makes sense to to explore it. Moreover, I'll share four outfits I wore for exploring  Mostar city.  April has proven to be surprisingly cold, so I switched my blazers for winter coats, ski (!!!) and leather jackets.  The last one could be my favourite outfit of this month so far. What is your favourite styling? OUTFIT #1- SKI PROJECT JACKET PAIRED WITH HIGH BOOTS , A TARTAN JAC...
