Wanderlust & Linguistic Insanity



I usually try to avoid all black, but lately it hasn't been bothering me that much. // {clutch detail here}


12. IX. 2009
Thinking about whether a change of scenery would be good for me or Belgrade would keep reminding me of ______ (many things that make my stomach twist) too much. I'm a different person in Belgrade and I'm always a little afraid of it.

At 7 PM when it was already dark I felt an urge to go to the main station and hop on the first train whose destination was a major city. Munich was the first that came to mind as I wanted something distant where I don't have a lot of memories. I went to a concert at the Gasteig last March (Neue Philharmonie Westfalen, Elīna Garanča, Karel Mark Chichon) but before that I'd only been to the city twice for a few hours when I was still in primary school. So there's not much to think about except that bakery on Zweibrückenstrasse which is just too charming and made me think I could live in Munich/Germany one day although I really couldn't.

I write notes even when I have nothing to say so it seems my current moleskine will be another one of those I'll never want to open again once I've finished them. Too much nonsense.

It freaks me out that my Slovenian is too influenced by Croatian so I often have to look up words when I write (if I think of the Croatian word first instead of Slovenian when I speak, I'll just say it and then translate in case the person I'm talking to doesn't understand). Doubting my skills in my first language makes me feel incredibly dumb, but at least I don't have such problems when I'm proofreading. Muss es sein? I had to leave the Facebook group "Yo amo code-switching!" because it simply isn't true any more.

My cardinal sin is that I refuse to acknowledge anything as impossible.

Ah, you see there is all black in general...and then all black as *you* wear it, which is just as stunning as colour, in my book.

Valencia Lia said...

All black is always good for a change ! I tend to avoid it when I can because my friends will say I'm emo which is not the case.

But once in awhile is all good girl !

Those pants on you makes your legs look so so long and slim <3

Plus the clutch is so so perfect,an extra touch to all this !

And your travels always makes me want to travel :)

Cafe Fashionista said...

I quite adore those trousers; but, even more, it's the clutch that has caught my eye. I love the sophistication it expels, and the chain detail adds just the slightest bit of rebelliousness to the look which I simply can't ignore. Fabulous! :)

Very nice bag :)

Fleur said...

Thank you that you like my name :)
Why did you avoid black? It suits you very well.

Epic all black look. All black only works if you've got loads of textures and shapes and things, which you do, and it helps if you're stunning, which you are! So high five from me on this outfit.

bohochick said...

that is such a great ensemble, and the purse is super lovely. you give off such an old hollywood glamour, love the vibe!
"My cardinal sin is that I refuse to acknowledge anything as impossible." - that statement is beautiful and powerful at the same time.

Denise said...

i love the whole look. especially the clutch!

Gerri Ward said...

YOU are sooo ELEGANT and GORGEOUS!
There's something about your sense of style that I haven't seen anywhere else, it's unforgettable and BEAUTIFUL! The clutch is the most ingenious detail to this outfit, it breaks the black and adds subtle GLAM to it!
p.s. This post is WONDERFUL!!!:)

Gerri

The Haute-Shopper said...

All-black is great if there's a bit of texture involved, which I see a lot of here (i.e. there's slight ruching and draping... love the shoes by the way). Munich is a beautiful place and I've been there a few times to visit friends, but unfortunately I don't think I could live there... too conservative/catholic for me. I do know what you mean about just hopping on a train and going somewhere else to free your mind. After a bad break-up I just couldn't stay in my then-hometown anymore.

I get the same way about languages by the way. Especially if they're very similar.
