Reality catcher

Haven’t been able to get enough of black clothes lately... So today I mixed this embellished black jacket, with an old denim skirt...No heavy accessorizing needed – this ensemble needs no distraction.
 I love wearing silver jewellery and pieces with silver or gunmetal hardware. But I think I’ll love gold just that little bit more for its richness and general association with all things opulent and decadent.
I dyed my hair in ombre again, little lighter this time, and still didn´t get used to it, but I´m pretty sure it won´t last for long!
Since I don´t watch TV at all, in the evening we usually spend time together, or with our friends...
But last two days I was attracked by two good movies. First one was from Almodovar - La piel que habito, and the second from Tarantino-Django Unchained.
Tarantino had always been the master of a certain type of narcotic euphoria in the cinema, something exquisitely superfluous, something to do with his mastery of surface and style – an ability to make you believe in it and see through it at the same time. That ability has gloriously returned and I´m amazed with this brilliant, brutal and revenge western! And of corse, a bowl of italian ice cream while watching! Mmmmmm!!!!
Enough of TV !
Tonight I have an evening of widsdom & meditation with Sri Sri Ravi Shankar in my hometown Split ,and I´m very excited to have an opportunity to learn  directly from the  Master! Live webcasts  will be available freely at 7pm on both Monday (form Zagreb) and Tuesday (from Split, with global meditation event).
Breathe in, breathe out, get back to your source!


With love

It Don't Mean A Thing If It Ain't Got That Swing

...Kupari, a seaside resort, is  located on the slopes of a small hill in the beautiful bay of Župa Bay, 5 km south-east of Dubrovnik. It was named after  a former manufacturing bricks and tiles that are in the Dubrovnik area called the "cup".Near the village of Kupari, in its fields, the residential house was established and built for the defence from pirates in 1623. The building had all the features of the fort with vaulted ground floor, first floor and stairs, and  still today there are loopholes.The most rapid development Kupari experienced in the second half of the 20th. century when hotel-tourist complex was built under the direction of the Yugoslav National Army. Within this complex there was the Tito´s villa  that has hosted numerous world-renowned statesmen and other dignitaries.During the war in Croatia it was complitely burned, robbed and destroyed!As soon as I saw this beautifull old hotel  , while I was visiting Dubrovnik for the first time, I knew I will come  back and make some photos here!I got up very early that day , prepared lunch for my family, borrowed  this vintage guitar from my  godfather, and went there with his lovely wife ...We  spent  2 hours  wandering around  rooms  and lobbies, admiring  beautifull wallpapers  and old decor style inhaling the  spirit of some long forgotten times....I felt like the time stopped for a moment....Regardless of the state of ruins that the building is in, it can be seen that there were once held  gala parties and that  it was crowded with people from all over the world! We  really had a great time!What will happen with Kupari, I don´t know.  I heard only that there  is a big interest  for  the investment in this huge project...I only hope that the new owner won´t  break the magic of this beautifull place....
