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

Happy November everyone! Today I'm back with a book review. This time I'm reviewing  This Immortal , a novel by Roger Zelanzy that shared Hugo award with  Frank Herbert's  Dune in 1966. It was clearly a good year for science fiction. I think both novels were equally deserving of the award. Both Roger Zelanzy and Frank Herbert remain acclaimed writers of science fiction with legions of fans, but Dune is definitely the better known known of the two works that won the Hugo award in 1966. I reviewed many of Frank Herbert's novels on my blog (  Godmakers , Dune , Dune Messiah,   Children of Dune,    God Emperor of Dune, Hertics of Dune, Chapterhouse: Dune,   White Plague ) and the same goes for Roger Zelazny. You can read my review of Roger Zelazny's Lord of Light.  I also reviewed his IF AT FAUST YOU DON'T SUCCEED .  Some day I really must put together my reviews of his Amber series, for Amber books is perhaps what Roger Zelazny best...

Hello, how are you doing? How is Autumn treating you? Unfortunately, I cannot say that I'm doing very well. I'm dealing with a lot of chronic pain due to Chron illness. Getting medical help in the pandemic is not easy. Those of you who have chronic and immune illnesses know what I'm talking about. Not an easy time for us. I might have to take a break from blogging (or blog less often) as I'm really exhausted from being in pain most of the time.   Moving onto brighter subjects. Today I will share two destinations perfect for strolling and two 'strolling friendly' outfits with you. Čapljina and Buna are great destinations for strolling around, walking and hiking. Both of them are in Herzegovina.  I'll share two sporty floral outfits with you, both of them featuring an iconic pair of Startas sneakers. I love this Croatian brand. I'm pretty sure I'm over 30 wears with this pair of sneakers so I might devote a post to them some time in the future, showing...

 Hello readers! Today I will share with you two early autumn outfits. They look more like summer outfits, though. The weather has been warm this Autumn so far. We're expecting some rain today but up to now the weather has been quite summery and so have my outfits. As you know, I'm currently in my home city Split (Croatia). I do love strolling this city. Autumn strolls can be especially rewarding. There's something melancholic and sweet about that time when Summer gives way to Autumn.  OUTFIT NUMBER #1- A ONE SHOULDER BLUE DRESS WITH STUDS WORN UNDER A PINK FLORAL SKIRT AND PAIRED WITH A MINI CROSS OVER BAG AND BEIGE LOAFERS Once again I tried the 'wear a dress as a top' tricky. You can see how I wore this blue dress with an olive blazer here .  When it comes to the pastel pink skirt I wore it with, I think it's vintage (I'm pretty sure it belonged to my mother). I wasn't able to track this skirt in my blog archives despite being certain that I wore it b...
