fashion – imchasingsunsets

the bag!

Hi guys! Remember me? Let’s all (when I say all, I think on my sister, maybe a few friends, ’cause at this point, I doubt that anyone I do not know in real life visit this page), pretend that it hasn’t been 8 months from my last post here. I honestly don’t know what happened, but I’ll blame it on my horoscope.

Was it a busy few months? Yes, and no. But, we’ll talk about it on another occasion (you see, I’m already promising a new blog post, WHO IS THIS GIRL?), this time I am here to talk about the best bag I ever owned.

nicolo vesso

Anyway, look at this beauty, in the loveliest shade of mustard yellow, big enough to pack everything I might need + my camera, handmade of the most gorgeous Italian leather and with navy blue satin lining and enough pockets (we all know that is important). I instantly fell in love with its strict, business-like form and unexpected color combo.

My dear friends Branka & Vesna make these amazing handbags, so if you ‘re interested, go and check them out here @nicolovesso and I promise you will fall in love with their work just as I did. Oh, and I forgot, look at their stunning packaging!

I really love the fact that in this day and age, small brands can grow their business much easier, as they are often better quality than some established names. I do believe that is important to show support to your local creatives, as one of them myself, I can tell you that that in everything you create with your own hands goes so much love & passion & hard work. What are your favorite small brands? Let me know in comments 🙂

summer dresses

fashion

Hi guys! I’m not really sure how to start an outfit post, should I just share photos with no writing at all? I have a strong urge to write something self-conscious and ironic but I will try not to.

Anyway, summer dresses are my favorite piece of clothing, and I wear them all year round, with boots or sneakers, and sweaters when it’s cold or with strappy sandals in this tropical heat. For me, every summer has THE dress, the one I wear when I need an extra boost of confidence and this green one from Springfield is my favorite this season. Trust me you do need it, its gorgeous and a great fit for every body type, plus is on sale now so it’s kinda saying you need to have me. And of course, you can see some fresh LancheJewelry bracelets, go check them out!

I also played with self-portraits and my analog camera objective on my digital camera (this time it was successful or better to say I really like the result), so let me know what do you think about these photos. Until next post, keep chasing sunsets.

novi sad

travel

The first half of 2018 was all about work for me, and from this perspective, I will probably be in the same mode indefinitely or at least for an extra few months. It is time to get serious and finish some goals I have on my mind for a way too long. So, no holiday plans for this little angel (for now). It crossed my mind that I could (and should go) on a weekend getaway, and then I remembered that I have really cute photos that I took last summer when I was in Novi Sad with a friend and never shared them here although I planned on doing that for a while.

Novi Sad is probably best known for Exit festival and it is located about an hour drive from Belgrade, and even if you are not into the festival madness, it is still a pretty beautiful place to visit, so if you are coming to Serbia this summer, maybe this post will inspire you.

We were there just for an afternoon, but I know there are many cute flats on Airbnb if you want to spend the night, that I highly recommend.

Hope you liked this short walk down the memory lane, I sincerely hope that I will have more free time soon to go somewhere fun and write about it, aka to live a little, but until then, this will have to do.

spring depression of some sort

fashion, let's talk

I don’t feel overly creative these days (again), perhaps because my brain is (again) overwhelmed with ideas and projects that I want to realize, things I want to learn, daily work with clients (God bless them) and lack of time for myself (again). I guess that anyone who knows me, is likely to say that it‘s not true, but I believe that every creative knows what I mean. It seems that all I do lately ends up with just another creative blockade, so I tried to break it a few days ago.

I wanted to shoot some new jewelry for our brand, JewelryLanChe and decided to leave my comfort zone, and to try something that I don’t normally do (but my sister does, and she is really good at it) – self portraits.

Let me tell you, taking photos of yourself that aren’t selfies, isn’t at all easy as it looks like. It was just before the rain and the wind was blowing so hard that my tripod fell down, along with the camera, I almost fell on the heels 3 times and twisted the ankle that I just recovered… That are the things you can’t see, but I guess that the final result isn’t that bad. It was fun for sure, and I will definitely try to do more of these in the future. What do you think?

i guess this is an outfit post

fashion, let's talk

So, to be honest, I never ever thought I will do an outfit post, or feel comfortable in front of the camera, for that mater. But somehow, over the time, I learned to love it. (I blame Instagram for it, tho. Before, I used to be all about taking photos of random cats and buildings I thought looked cute. It’s strange how I never thought of studding architecture.)

But, let’s stick to the point. As you may know, (and let’s be honest, all of you reading this probably does), together with my sister Milica, I own a jewelry label named JewelryLanche and our modern bohemian agate bracelets are something we are known for. They are mostly one of a kind pieces, and I wanted to show how you can style these bracelets with almost anything and at any time of the year.

Preferably, you will be wearing these at Coachella, but if you can’t make it this year, (me neither, I know, what a bummer) here is an idea how you can wear them.

So as I said, I never thought I will be an outfit post kind of blogger, but I love these photos too much not to share them. I guess that’s the thing with self promotion, you will feel bad about it at first, and then you get use to it, and than you are unstoppable.
