Textures



                                                                                            cushions: zara home
                                                                                            blanket: zara home
                                                                                            basket: hema
                                                                                            ph. me

If you are following me on the Instagram lately, you probably saw that I'm renovating my very first apartment and don't have any clue what it would look like at the end. Mixed feelings between Scandinavian coziness and french chicness are giving me a hard time, but hey, that's not a reason for not bringing a wire basket, fluffy cushion or a teaspoon from another country!
And before I start dealing with "which sofa is the best for me" decisions I wanted to share with you one more tip for washing (previous one is for black clothes), and this time it's all about wool and delicates.  I'm obsessed with different textures when it comes to home fabrics so I use Perwoll Wool&Silk liquid detergent to keep all those cushions and blankets soft, fluffy and in a good shape with every wash.
Just be sure to check the washing instructions from the product label before turning on the washing machine or hand washing and dry it carefully afterwards.

Summer getaway essentials

                                                                                               CLICK TO SEE MORE
 Friday: when you traveling you need an outfit that is both comfortable and stylish. Favorite sneakers, light shirt and denim shorts.                                                                                           
     Saturday: if you decide to spend a day by the pool or at the beach, the only thing you will need is obviously a swimsuit.                                                                                           

    Saturday night: for after-sunset cocktails and dinner substitute light shirt for a bohemian blouse and pair it with heeled sandals.
    Sunday: if you want to explore the sights and local shops before you leave the city, it’s important to have outfit which is suitable for a lot of walking. Pair the same shorts with gladiator sandals, hat and hippie blouse.

Mornings



The comfort of a warm bed and soft blanket makes waking up almost impossible but if you are a morning person like I am, this is the best part of your day! So if you create a routine and set out to complete a few tasks before your day starts will leave you energized and make you feel accomplished before your day has even begun.
You can try some of my suggestions, it's not that hard, the only trick that I have is to enjoy!

Omiljeno doba dana? Ovo je lako pitanje... Jutro, bez izuzetka.
Iako topao krevet i mekano ćebe mogu da deluju itekako primamljivo, ako ste jutarnja osoba kao ja, to je zapravo najbolji deo vašeg dana! Trik je da kreirate rutinu i već nekoliko stvari obavite pre nego što svi ostali startuju, tako ćete dobiti prednost i uživati u ostatku dana.
Nemojte se mrštiti, počnite da uživate u tim magičnim trenucima, kada se svet tek budu.


                                      Grab a coffee or a tea and get inspired from the magazines. Pinterest is allowed too. ;)

                        Šolja kafe je obavezna! Dodajte gomilu modnih magazina i lako ćete pronaći  inspiraciju (i Pinterest je dozvoljen, takođe!).

                                              Take time for breakfast. French toast? Yes, please! (find the recipe here)

                                         Odvojite vreme za doručak, znate da je to najvažniji obrok u danu, a svi nutricionisti se slažu u oceni da je tada manje-više sve dozvoljeno jesti. Zato.... Francuski tost? Oh da! (recept možete pronaći ovde)

                                  Or make a super yummy strawberry smoothie in two minutes! (find the recipe here)
                     Podižem ulog uz domaći smoothie od jagode (biće vam potrebno samo dva minuta da ga napravite, ovde možete naći recept).

                                                                                       Sweat it out.

                                      Ako do sada niste probali, morate, dve reči: jutarnje vežbanje. Zahvalite mi se kasnije.

                          Or take a dip. If you have a swimming pool close to your home, morning swim is just what you need.

                    Ukoliko ste u prilici, u svoju agendu uvedite i plivanje. Ne postoji bolji način da započnete dan (pitajte Annu Dello Russo, ona svaki dan počinje oko 6 sa nekoliko krugova u bazenu).

                                                                                     Visit the market and stare at the flowers.

                                            Pijaca je jedna od mojih omiljenih jutarnjih stanica, posebno u proleće. Te boje i oblici su fantastičan izvor inspiracije.

                                                                                   Bring a bouquet to your work. (or home)

                                ...i nemojte da se vratite bez buketa cveća! Ulepšajte dan sebi. Što da ne? Ionako, ko vas voli najviše?


                                                                                            Explore your own city.

                                        Budući da ste ustali pre svih imate vremena da istražite sopstveni grad, uživajte u prvim zracima sunca i praznim baštama.

                                                                                     Find the hidden streets and take a snap. ;)

                                   I slikajte! Svi fotografi će vam reći da jutarnje fotografije ispadaju odlično zbog mekanog svetla koje se prelama. 

                                                                                           Take a break and grab a coffee.

                                                 Zgrabite i jednu kafu za poneti, održavanje prave količine kofeina je ključno. 

                                                           If you are not feeling the morning activities you can always read a book.
                                                          Nekim danima je jednostavno dovoljna i samo dobra knjiga.

                                                                              Or just chill and do nothing.

                                        A nekada vam je dovoljno da samo “uhvatite dan” i uživate u slatkoj dokolici.

See? I told ya, it's easy! You just have to do whatever makes you happy, whether is that yoga, 5 minutes workout or starring at the sun before you dressed up make sure you stick to it throughout the month to see the full benefits. If you wake up 30 minutes earlier, and actually get up without snoozing your alarm clock, these 30 minutes can make a world of difference when you want to get a little more done or just to simply have a more relaxing morning and day full of energy.

Vidite, rekla sam vam! Tajna je u tome da vaš deo dana iskoristite radeći ono što najviše volite. Bilo da je to joga, ili gledanje sunca pre nego što ustanete, držite se tih malih rituala i već posle nekoliko nedelja videćete njihova blagotvorna svojstva. Probajte da navijate budilnik malo ranije kako biste doveli organizam u stanje da počinje prirodno da se budi. Dobro jutro!

Sweet Valentine










                                                                                                  ph. Jelena, me




Okay, okay I’m not a romantic person or much of a Valentines celebrator. You know that. However, I do like an excuse to shop or receive a gift. Who doesn't? I also love flowers, super creamy macaroons, pink hearts and silky ribbons. Not a romantic person. No way. I'm celebrating love. Just like PANDORA with their latest collection specially created for Valentine's Day.
Inspired by all the amazing aspects of love – from light-hearted fun to Latin passion and classic romance. With several designs: Lockets of Love, Modern Classics and Ribbons of Love you will be able to find the perfect gift that suits your beloved ones (or you) the best.
Should I mention how much I like hand-finished bow bangle?  Beautifully crafted from sterling silver and topped with a bow glittering with cubic zirconia. And how about that gorgeous ring with two heart-shaped cubic zirconia stones nestled into the curves of hand-finished Forever Hearts ring in sterling silver. One sparkling stone for your love or your best friend – the other for you.
I've made my choice. It's your turn now, feel the love, fall in love and get in the mood 'cause V-day is fast approaching!

p.s. for more information about PANDORA latest collections be sure to check their website!
