After the Vacation....

...it is always so hard for me to "face" the "normal" life and every day's situations, to realize that the Holidays and soon, summer is over and that I will be able to enjoy some more sea and friends only the next year:(





We really had a blast in Lukovo, Croatia. It is my absolutely favorite Vacation place, so peaceful and beautiful, almost antique in a way(there is no shop or anything else in the village, except one restaurant). The place that I have been so many times and spent so many summer Vacations, made some of the best life time friendships.





It was almost unreal to see the same happening now to my kids, playing at the same spots with other kids, enjoying the crystal sea and beautiful nature and also making some of the best long lasting friendships. Lukovo is sure to be one of those places that you immediately can feel like second home:)



There are more than 350 pics that I have uploaded to my flickr account, so you may see them by going HERE



Hope you had a wonderful Vacation as well

DeAgostini Winnie de Pooh commercial

Sometimes during July, Pablo and Bianka were chosen to do the commercial for the Italian brand De Agostini, for making the short spot with Winnie de Pooh, Disney party/dinning supplies.





We had a wonderful time on the set, as it took place in one wonderful house, at Dedinje, Belgrade. The kids were able to play between the scenes, outside and they almost didn't wanted to leave the set once they were done.




The commercial is "in the air" now in Italy and here is how it look like.



Have a wonderful weekend,

NUOK feature

Nuok is an online magazine featuring original articles written by Italian journalists, creatives and writers on New York’s lifestyle, food, art, culture and hidden treasures. Updated daily, Nuok is an indispensable guide for everyone passionate about The Big Apple: travelers, residents and dreamers alike.
HERE is my recent NUOK feature. As I have never been in New York before, I was asked to answer some questions about one of the European cities offered and so I talked about Barcelona, one of my fav European cities, visited as far.

Sunflower dress

I made for Marta this fun, twirly dress a few weeks ago and I took the advantage of the gorgeous sunflower field near our weekend house, at Fruska gora, to take some pics of it. There is another dress I made 3 years ago, also with the sunflower inspiration/surrounding.





The dress is made using different fabrics, but mainly Garden party fabrics by Anna Maria Horner. I love how whimsy it turned out and Marta is delighted with the twirl ability option:). I am planning to add it to my etsy shop, as soon as I will find a free time to do that( there is a lot of things happening here, as one of my friends is getting married on Saturday, so always have a lot of things to do:)

La vie en rose

We had a wonderful time last week, at Fruska gora. The weather was great, allowing us to enjoy the pool, and other activities out and inside the house.





I have finally started to draw and I am pretty satisfied with my studio over there, inspiration and among all, the possibility to be able to draw(while my kids are happily playing nearby).



It is incredible how some simple and ordinary things can sometimes fill you with happiness.



Hope you are enjoying the summer,
Katarina
