A hint of mint

Hello lovelies,

since summer is here, I wanted to do some bright colored make up. I also had in mind to do an outfit post with this gorgeous lace dress, and I thought it would be great combination of summer outfit and make up, but not matching it. I wanted to do something that will be in contrast of this dress. I am not a big fan of doing the same make up everytime, although I have my favourite looks. But make up for me is pushing the boundaries of comfortable zone, and stepping into something daring and extravagant. I knew that this dress would look amazing with red lips and eyeliner, but instead, I chose some mint green smudgy kohl and neutral lips.

Take a look ;)

Like a princess

Hello lovelies,

this post is all about the royal blue high-waisted midi skirt. It so reminds me of Ulyana Sergeenko. It just screams her name :) You know how much I love all that she's done so far.

I adore royal blue color and surprise, surprise, red/blue combo one more time.

Sorry about the light on the pictures, as it differs on almost each picture. It's because the weather was so unpredictable that day that it changed a billion times in a minute. So, we had to embrace what we were given. Shooting at sunny, rainy, cloudy day, you name it. :)

Keep it classic.

Hello lovelies,
this outfit is something I wear often during Spring/Summer. Striped skirt and stilettos are my ultimate favourite combination, and not because they are fashionable or trendy, but because I adore stripes. I find them unique pattern that goes with lots of different colors and materials. But I chose something simple and monochrome to keep it classic.

Trench coat dress

Hello lovelies,
I'm pretty sure you've seen me wearing this dress before, but I thought it would be nice to make some pictures at the mountain. I was in a huge rush that day that I just made some pictures with the phone basically while running down the streets. And as the night was falling the only time left for taking pictures was right before the sunset on the beautiful meadow at the mountain. As I went there straight from the city, I didn't change the clothes, but I took sporting clothes with me of course. It was much colder than in the city, but luckily, I finished posing very quickly.

Dandelions&Blues

Hello lovelies,

I've been absent from blogging as I went home for a couple of days. Whenever I go home I try to take the opportunity and go outside as much as possible, visiting the villages around and going to the mountains. A little bit of fresh air is something I really missed, since winter in Sarajevo lasted too long, bringing all the dirt and pollution around.
Luckily, summer is getting near, and I'm really happy about it, since it is my favourite season. I didn't miss the chance to visit all the beautiful nature surroundings but I didn't bring anything but sneakers and one pair of my everyday heels. Luckily I had some clothes still left in my wardrobe at home, and I combined what I had at that moment. The weather that days was awful. I decided to have a walk with my friends and make a blog post but the weather tried to stop me. When I got out and made a couple of shots, the weather was still nice, and a little bit windy, but soon after the rain started pouring on us, and we had to hide. When the rain stopped, the weather changed from sunny and windy to gloomy and dark, Therefore, the pictures are a little bit different in lighting. I didn't took enough shots for a post and I had to take a little bit more to complete the outfit post, using different mode on camera, so you can see the slight difference between a couple of pictures.

Come to the Cabaret

As a huge fan of musicals, I had to recreate the iconic look of Sally Bowles. I have mentioned it a couple of times before, while writing about the history of make-up, that one of my favourite eras are the Roaring Twenties. I have studied it as a part of my faculty course, and I got into it even more, while researching the books from that period. From fashion, to the culture in general. I love musicals the most for two main reasons, music and make-up. It's the combination of the two things I adore. I can sing the songs as well as recreate the make up. It's the mixture of theatrical fashion, make-up, music, dance. Everything I enjoy.
 Indeed, there is something special about musicals that I find so attractive and connected to my personality. Sally Bowles is a charming, beautiful lady, eccentric, and to a degree, pretentious. But she is also innocent and childlike. That appeal is something I can relate to. Liza Minnelli is certainly the best performer of that role. She performed the role of her lifetime, making the character recognizable by her own style and iconic look.
I tried to make everything as similar as possible. I didn't want to change my face shape or something like that, but adapt it. I wanted it to look as natural as possible, but still representative of that look. I find it the most challenging thing. You can draw on your face, make drag queen looks, and look like somebody else. The truth is, I hate that. I appreciate when someone recreates iconic looks by adapting it to the face, making it look real and natural as possible.
