Great things happen by love

Hello sweethearts!

Winter days are finally over, now only with a strange remembrance I recall of cold days while the spring sun warms  my face. Winter was long but somehow Gloria's presence early in March was just an introduction to the beautiful days ahead. 


These photos are taken on the last day of Gloria's stay in Zagreb. It was a gloomy day but long talk with coffee and cakes made it better. In the evening we relaxed with the film and hers delicious pancakes. I write this because I really enjoyed Gloria's company but also, I've been thinking a lot.


Gloria was working on herself in the last few years and while I was looking for a security in her decisions and actions I overlooked a simple and wonderful thing. She said: "Great things happen by love"...and then everything was clear to me. 


Not to enter into some deep thinking now, I hope every one of you reading this will think about that sentence and what it means to you. And I hope you will keep it in your morning reflections before you start your day like I do. Thank you my dear friend...


All photos are taken by Gloria La Marr Ⓡ with her Canon EOS 80D and Sigma 18-35 mm f/1.8 DC HSM Art lens.

Here tulips bloom as they are told

"A tulip doesn’t strive to impress anyone. It doesn’t struggle to be different than a rose. It doesn’t have to. It is different. And there’s room in the garden for every flower. You didn’t have to struggle to make your face different than anyone else’s on earth. It just is. You are unique because you were created that way."



Hello sweethearts!

One thing that I like more than spring is to dress up for spring :)
Dressing up in a floral dress while everything around me is in bloom is like some kind of therapy that works almost good like sun on me. That's why Dolly & Dotty Annie dress became my favorite dress this late spring...If you ask me it came just at the right time, both dress and spring.



As always, Dolly & Dotty delivered a fantastic dress. If you order from them, quality among other things is what you will surely be satisfied with. In a multitude of styles they offer, Annie dress is the one that will fit every body. This swing dress is cut to compliment your curves and make, not just to look but feel amazing.



This pretty dress completes even more beautiful print, just created for springtime walks in nature.


Soft cotton fabric makes sure you feel comfortable, and simple but elegant cut allows layered dressing in these changing spring days. My favorite feature is the bateau neckline and swing skirt. Zipper on the back makes it easy to put on/off and ironing is super easy.


Sleeveless cut is great for cardigans which are an indispensable part of the colder spring mornings. I am wearing a size UK12 and it fits perfectly because fabric has a bit stretch that carries the body nicely. Is goes just below my knees ( I'm 5'5 ) and beautifully falls on a petticoat.


What makes the dress stand out are printed tulip flowers. This bold print will provide you with lots of compliments.

Fortune in Kitty

Hello sweethearts!

Spring is finally here! Oh how I wished warmer weather to ride on my bike but April is a month known for its moody weather and I got just the perfect piece of clothing for that!
Miss Fortune's Kitty Batwing top is like created for April showers, cold mornings and warmer days.



Kitty Batwing top comes in an assortment of six gorgeous colors.  Always so kind Laura, the designer behind Miss Fortune, was sweet enough to send me this gorgeous Kitty top in black/ silver lurex.




First I must say, and I'm not sure how to put it in words, this top is unbelieveably comfortable. Like, soooo soft and light that I feel  super movable and free wearing it. It's made out of Polyester-Spandex mix with a silver lurex thread running through it in a crinkle texture.


I just love the elegance that silver lurex gives to this classy top. Honestly, this is my first batwing style top. They horrified me! So much that I never even tried one before. But slash neck, 3/4 length sleeves and silver running won me so much that I hat to give it a go. And now I'm in love.




This super comfy jersey top goes par excellence with a skirt like I'm wearing it, but thick and stretchy ponte fabric makes it so comfortable that I definitely see myself wearing it in a more casual occasion with some nice cigarette pants!

Skirt- eBay 
Hat- made by me

Accessories- Splendette
