All of you who have been sticking around for a while know that I have a thing for backpacks and that you can sometimes see me wearing a cross body bag but never a handbag. I find handbags quite unpractical because you need to hold them so one of you're hands is unavailable at all time. Most of the time I overpack my bag cos hey I'll definitely need stuff from that cosmetic bag, two packs of tissues, wet tissues, a comb maybe even an umbrella. Carrying all that around for the day wouldn't feel nice after what, 30 minutes, maybe less?

Our lives tend to get busy, we live walking in one direction, most of the time having a plan, sticking to schedules. What if we stopped for a moment. Stopped for an hour and just let our legs take us somewhere, known unknown it doesn't matter. Just somewhere away from the routine, unplanned and without a purpose.

Yesterday after helping around the house parents wanted to take little sister to the playground so I tag along. Took my camera as I pretty much always do and messaged my friend Mato (who's usually my photographer so shoutout to him!) to go for a walk. He already was outside with another friend of our so we met up and walked around the town, not really knowing where we'll end up. Just following pretty light, going through parks, by the water... It was such a wonderful, much needed relaxing time. Even tho I have three exams this week I think it was a great idea to go out. 

Enjoy the moment, it's worth it.  

Hello lovelies!

As you could see on my Instagram account the hair colour I went to is lilac/lavander/violet/pastel purple (however you want to call it). I've been wanting it for years but was always afraid of bleaching my entire hair. Today I wanted to share with you the process I went through to get from my natural hair colour to blonde to pastel. Before going to the hairdresser's I did a lot of research. I watched so many YouTube videos and read many articles on bleaching, different brands of hair dye, mixing the dye with conditioner, using Olaplex hair treatment...I'm writing this so you don't have to go through all of it.

So here they are:

In the middle of week weather turned upside down. It became so cold that I had to take the coat out of closet and put the denim jacket away. In the evening it was even snowing. SNOW IN APRIL!? But then on Friday afternoon the sun finally showed up while I was in my room preparing things I'll wear for the weekend. The weekend was reserved for trip to Pula, visiting family and cousins Confirmation. As it's on the seaside, the weather there is mostly better than at home, in the continental part, so we all hoped it would be warm or at least without rain and wind.

Anyway, I need to talk about these shoes, lace up sandals from Pull and Bear. As soon as I saw them on their webshop I knew i need to have them. I didn't buy any shoes there before so I didn't want to order them but rather go to the store where i can try them out. I must say they are so comfortable and because of the chunky heel so easy to walk in on any kind of ground. Because of the straps even if you have thin feet like I do, you can tighten the laces and they'll fit perfectly. My mom dislikes shoes with open fingers cos the feet slip through it, with these one it also kinda happens but not as much as it happened to me on other shoes, so far it didn't cause me any pain. After wearing them regularly I'll write more about my experience, but so far I'm super satisfied and they'll definitely be my go-to shoes when sunny weather comes. They go well with a casual everyday outfit and also with a fancy one.

Skirt is a regular stretchy polyester pencil skirt. It has this gorgeous floral design with flowers in shades of puce and some light blue leaves. It was standing in cousins closet under many skirts still with a price tag on. We talked about what to wear and then she remembered the skirt and gave it to me the next day.
