summertime

shorts - self made

top - flea market

my new favorite shorts

lighter version of that gray wool shorts

that i wore at least 50 times since i made it past december

..

this supposed to be my summer festival outfit

but it was way too cold outside to wear it to an actual festival

so instead i wore it yesterday to mow the lawn

at my parents country house

(booties are there just for the pictures

i actually wore rubber boots for lawn mowing event)

..

bonus photo:

playing air guitar 

as a backup for lawn mower (one that's been rocking since '84)

for the audience of  one boyfriend

and one fallen sumac tree

sweatpants

sweatpants - self made

top - terranova

i keep proving myself wrong this year..

i made and proudly wore bunch of unusual (for me) stuff

pants and more pants and shorts and leggings, that i used to hate

and here i am, sporting sweatpants

that are ranked second on my irrational hate list of clothing items

(no 1 is saved for jeans.. still hate jeans very much

and still think i won't wear them ever..

but who am i kidding, i'll probably end up making them too)

..

i've actually made sweatpants before

and still own and occasionally wear that pair

but, although cool to look at, those are not the most practical of pants

with all that extra fabric in crotch area

..

but these are pretty much perfect

(except when it comes to pattern matching

they are slightly off and it bugs me, big time)

they are great travel pants

great for camping, lounging by fire, hiking, workout

and i even wore them to the local pub one night

(and my grandma is crazy about them

she requested a pair too)

mountain top

top, shorts - self made

photos from the first day of my mountain trip

a really easy climb

but the one i never skip

because the view from the top is insane

..

you can't see that from my pics

because i forgot to change lens on my nikon

and portrait lens makes crappy landscape pictures

..

also, shorty shorts make crappy hiking wear

unless you have a thing for ridiculously scratched up legs

cursed mountains

leggings (and top and shorts) - self made

just got back from my mountain trip..

spent a fabulous week on prokletije in montenegro 

camping and hiking and climbing 

with nikola and friends (and their kids..

and their bichon bolognese

called leo, that you can see in one of the pics)

..

made bunch of clothes for the trip

and planned to shoot all that clothes while there

but i pretty much failed..

i was having way too much fun

and photo shoots looked like such a pain in the ass at the moment

..

i did, however, menage to find few pics of me

wearing my favorite leggings ever!

such a shame that the fabric is sold out

i kind of wanna make 2 more pairs of identical leggings

so i can wear them when these fall apart
