Victorian Lady
Wednesday, March 27, 2013
If you remember this post, you'll recognize the same details. But the previous one is done with awful camera and I didn't put make up at all, as it was a part of my holiday trip, and I took these things just in case I fall in love with some gorgeous place and feel the need to take pictures. Because I know I will get inspired as soon as I go for a walk in the woods :)
Since then, I was hoping to do the same one but with great make up and great camera, so my friend Nina took the pictures :)
And, YES, I've been writing about corsets numerous times, but this post is worth reading. I highly recommend it for all the corset lovers.
As usual, I love posting some 'behind the scenes ones' :) Just for fun ;)

Imaginaerum/ Gentleman's touch
Monday, January 21, 2013
Firstly, a couple of pictures in color. And then black&white ones.
I've always loved black&white movies and therefore pictures in this post are all in black and white (rather grayscale) pictures. Those who are following my blog surely remember similar outfit such as this one
I also made boyish look post here
I love being elegant and sexy when wearing men's clothes such as men's suit and white shirt. A Lady with gentleman's touch.
This outfit is mix of everything, I would say. Theatrical, circus and Hollywood movie inspired look. The title reveals some of the inspiration found, and it is the title of the latest Nightwish album, my favourite band ever. It has got that circus, theatrical vibe. It's about magic land and magicians, and this outfit is some kind of interpretation of female magician. I love magic and being a magician lady is what the pictures are about.
So, if you didn't have the chance to listen to ''Imaginaerum'', download it now! It's pure perfection.
I'd also add Charlie Chaplin as one of the influences.
The pictures are taken by Nina Mašić and edited by me(except the fourth, fifth and sixth one).
Crimson pleated dress
Tuesday, June 26, 2012
I'll just post the pictures of the red dress I bought recently. After finishing my post I will go to sleep as I haven't been sleeping longer than a couple of hours for a week. I'm so tired.
I must say that I adore this dress!:) And as I've been writing about red here, I won't write the same things again, as I really adore red color.
I was in a rush so I really didn't pay that much attention to details as I usually do, and I know that you are used to editorial like outfit posts:)
Here's the outfit

As I've promised. Here are the pictures from the recent photosession. I'd like to share some of the ''behind the scenes'' pictures, without retouch or any kind of program used for it.
The pink dress is vintage (Nina's), and the shoes are bought in Sarajevo, in Alta, Parfois. Pictures are taken by Nina Mašić. Here is her fb page.

Hat Addicted Lover
Friday, January 13, 2012
I'm deeply in love with all kinds of hats. Especially the ones called Hat Net ('French netting' or 'Russian veiling').
One of the first hats to be depicted was found in a tomb painting at Thebes and shows a man wearing a coolie-style straw hat. Other early hats include the Pileus, which was a simple skull cap, the Phrygian cap, which became identified later as the 'liberty cap' given to slaves in Greece and Rome when they were made free men, and the Pestasos which comes from ancient Greece and is the first known hat with a brim.
Although women from an early stage were always expected to have their heads covered by veils, kerchiefs, hoods, caps and wimples, it was not until the end of the 16th century that women's structured hats, based on those of male courtiers began to be seen.
It was in the late seventeenth century that women's headgear began to emerge in its own right and not be influenced by men's hat fashions. The word 'milliner', A maker of women's hats, was first recorded in 1529 when the term referred to the products for which Milan and the northern Italian regions were well known, i.e. ribbons, gloves and straws. The haberdashers who imported these highly popular straws were called 'Millaners' from which the word was eventually derived.
By the mid 1800's Swiss and Italian straws, together with imitation straws made from paper, cardboard, grass and horsehair were available to women, along with the introduction of velvet and tulle.
During the first half of the nineteenth century the bonnet dominated women's fashion, becoming very large with many ribbons, flowers, feathers and gauze trims giving an appearance of even greater size. By the end of the century, although bonnets were still prevalent, many other styles were to be found, including wide brims with flat crowns, the flower pot and the toque - feathers and veils abounded.
Although early in the 1900's most hats were enormous and adorned with flowers, feathers, ribbons and tulle, by the mid 1920's women's hair had become much shorter with the shingle cut and the cloche, which hugged the head like a helmet with a very small brim, had come into fashion. Now, after World War 1, there was suddenly such a proliferation of styles and materials that many women had to rely on the advice of milliners.
During the 1930's and 40's the tendency was for hats to have higher crowns with smaller brims and once it was War-Time again, it was mainly the trims which were changed with women making do with turbans made from pre-war materials.
Since their invention, hats have come and gone as status symbols, uniforms and fashion statements as well as being functional sports and protective headgear.
Me with only some of the hats
