At my cousin's wedding



H&M dress  //  Mona clutch  //  Thrifted shoes  

Moja sestra od ujaka najzad je stala na ludi kamen, i bilo je divno slaviti tako srećan dan sa njom. Međutim, pošto ne idem često na tako svečane događaje večita dilema je stupila na snagu - šta obući? A onda mi je sinulo - šta fali haljini koju sam kupila pre čitave tri godine i koju skoro uopšte nisam nosila jer nije bilo prilike? U skladu s tim izborom odlučila sam se za minimalizam u detaljima - haljini nije trebalo ništa više od jednobojnih cipela i pismo torbice da je isprate i dozvole joj da ovlada čitavim izgledom. Moram priznati da se nimalo ne kajem što sam popustila pred njom, možda mi sad stoji čak i bolje nego onda kad sam je pronašla i kupila. ;)
Svojoj sestri želim svu sreću u bračnom životu, ali ne sumnjam da će je imati na pretek jer je odabrala pravu osobu s kojom će ga deliti. Najveća sreća je doživeti da pronađeš svoju srodnu dušu i imaš je uz sebe. Breme je lakše kada se podeli na dvoje leđa, a sreća je i slađa i veća kada u njoj učestvuju oni koje voliš.

My cousin finally got hitched, and it was wonderful to celebrate such a happy day with her. However, since I don't attend such formal events that often the eternal dilemma struck like lightning - what do I wear? And then I got it - what's wrong with the dress I bought three years ago and barely ever wore because there was no occasion for it? After choosing it I went with minimalism in details - the dress needed nothing more than one-color shoes and clutch bag to keep up with it and let it rule the entire look. I have to admit that I don't regret buying it at all, maybe it looks even better on me now than it did back then. ;)
I wish my cousin all the happiness in the world in her marriage, but I don't doubt that she'll have plenty of it since she chose the right person to share it with. The greatest happiness in life is when you find your soulmate and have them by your side. The burden is much easier to bear when divided in two, and happiness is both sweeter and greater when people you love take part in it.
