Take me as you found me

For such a long period of time I've been following creative fashion bloggers who announced new trends all over the world, thinking about what it would be like if I could do the same by making my own page. I got to meet some of them personally and make great friendships with them. <3 But then again, although each one of them inspired me to match the colors in a bit more unusual way, try out something you don't really see every day,  I never got the courage to share my interests and taste in fashion with other people... until today.

Dugo sam pratila kreativne modne blogere koji su širom sveta diktirali trendove i razmišljala o tome kako bi bilo da se i sama odvažim da napravim svoju stranicu. Neke od njih sam imala priliku da lično upoznam i sklopim divna prijateljstva sa njima. <3 Međutim, iako me je svaki od blogera inspirisao da uklopim boje malo neobičnije, isprobam nešto nesvakidašnje, nikako nisam skupila hrabrosti da svoja insteresovanja i ukus podelim sa drugima... sve do danas.

My name is Jelena, I'm seventeen years old and I live in Belgrade. When I turned four, I took a pencil for the first time and started drawing, and as years went by, drawings that used to look so playful and senseless back then slowly transformed into dresses, shoes and much more things I dreamed of wearing one day. I was inspired by people I could see in the streets, nature and beautiful places I had the opportunity to visit (like, for example, Italy, where I bought my favourite pair of shoes this year), and I will never get enough from those sources of ideas.

I changed my style many times - as a little girl I loved fluttery dresses and bright colors, and somewhere in fifth grade I filled my wardrobe with wide shirts in black and dark grey, and hid my face with heavy make-up I mostly couldn't dare to put on. Sometimes it appears to me that at that time I was more afraid of changes than ever, stuck to monotony, was labeled as an outsider...

When I met new friends who brought colors back into my life, I became brave enough to experiment, try new things, make mistakes, and finally reach what I like now.

To tell you the truth, I still don't know how to describe my style, because everytime I like something completely new and different. As I can't find the words to introduce myself, I'll be using pictures to do that.

I will not have much time to create my own outfits until the beginning of summer because of obligations I have at school, but by then I will write about everything I find inspiring and motivating. I hope you'll have a little time to meet me this way and that you'll like what I have to offer. Here is my first blog outfit for the start. Thank you in advance! <3

Zovem se Jelena, imam sedamnaest godina i živim u Beogradu. Kada sam napunila četiri godine, prvi put sam uzela olovku u ruke i počela da crtam, a kako su godine prolazile, crteži koji su nekad izgledali tako razigrano i besmisleno poprimali su oblike haljina, cipela i još mnogih stvari koje sam sanjala da obučem jednog dana. Inspirisali su me ljudi koje sam viđala na ulici, priroda i lepa mesta koja sam imala prilike da posetim (kao, na primer, Italija, u kojoj sam kupila moj omiljeni par cipela ove godine), i ti izvori nadahnuća mi nikada neće dosaditi.

Menjala sam stil mnogo puta - kao mnogo mlađa volela sam lepršave haljinice i vedre boje, da bih negde u petom razredu napunila orman crnim i tamnosivim širokim majicama i sakrivala lice teškom šminkom koju sam se retko kad usuđivala da nosim. Čini mi se ponekad da sam se tada najviše i plašila promena, držala se monotonije, bila etiketirana kao autsajder...

Kada sam stekla nove prijatelje koji su vratili boje u moj život, odvažila sam se da eksperimentišem, pokušavam, grešim, i konačno dođem do onoga što mi se danas dopada.

Istinu govoreći, još uvek ne znam kako da opišem svoj stil, zato što mi se svaki put dopadne nešto sasvim novo i drugačije. Kako nisam vešta da pronađem reči kojima bih to učinila, koristiću se slikama.

Neću imati puno vremena za svoje odevne kombinacije do početka leta zbog obaveza u školi, ali do tada ću pisati o svemu što me inspiriše i motiviše. Nadam se da ćete izdvojiti malo vremena da se na ovakav način upoznate sa mnom i da će vam se dopasti ono što imam da ponudim. Evo moje prve odevne kombinacije za početak. Hvala unapred! <3

 

I was wearing a Tally Weijl blazer, Motivi t-shirt, New Yorker jeans, Jeffrey Campbell Lita shoes bought in Florence, Italy, Tally Weijl necklace and ring, black and silver bracelet from my aunt and a silver bracelet bought in Tunisia.

Pictures are taken by my best friend, Kona, who is also on her way to open a fashion blog - very excited to see what it will look like. :D

I can't wait to find time to show you more outfits!
