Don't you just love Sundays? Fresh fruit and flowers from the market, delicious croissant and of course something to read! I woke up early as usually, had great start with this yummy breakfast and with that energy I started making some pastries with my mom. The results will be soon on the blog, which means Recipes are just around the corner! :)
Besides that, I also wanted to tell you that Google Reader is shutting down from the 1st of July and you will lose the list of blogs you follow.
Luckily, thanks to Bloglovin' , you can easily transfer the list of all the blogs you already follow so you don’t miss this chance. Here you can find instruction how to import all the blogs you have been following with Google Reader to Bloglovin'!
And don't forget to follow me! ;)

p.s. thank you a lot for sharing my photos on your Tumblr blogs and especially on the Pinterest, I'm really honored because of the fact that you like them! Hope that I will give you even more interesting photos in the near future! :)

Breakfast ...

                                                                                     CLICK TO SEE MORE












Shadows on me terrace were enough for me to make me get out of  bed, grab homemade raspberry jam and start taking photos of this month's press.
I can say that this was a hella god month! :)
Svet and style weekly magazine is now tradition. Every Monday I'm suggesting what to wear with my other fellow bloggers.
Elle - this was our third fashion test, my very own section in this prestigious magazine which I'm very proud of. You can't blame me. :) We tried festival look, and I approved it! ;) (you can see the whole look in previous post, here).
And last, but not least is my second cover of some magazine! This time, for BPM news, with Morellato campaign! I also ended up on the last page. ;)
Besides this, I made style guide for the accessories with my lady Jelena Karakas, which can be found in BPM news. Our personal favorites, jewelry editorial (photos by my sister Maja and me) , fresh news are main topics in this addition. And I love how it turns out! In some of my future posts, I will show you photos!
If you like this little peek into BPM news, you can Download it Here and check it out! :)
Enjoy, it's weekend!

Hot Pink Camp & A Mocha Midi

I don't know that I would have thought to pair this hot pink camp shirt with this mocha midi skirt if they hadn't been on the same migratory path through my closet.  But, they were and I liked the way they looked grazing on the plains together so here they are:


Blouse, skirt & belt: thrifted vintage, Hive & Honey flats via Piperlime

I also added black accessories, including my vintage sweater clip pins:


One day I'll probably wear this piece to hold a sweater together.  Probably.

Happy Thursday, Everyone!

I was wearing my new favorite dress from Pull and bear, with my all time favorite pieces IM booties and MK bag! :) This type of outfit matches perfectly with my personality, despite the funny look of my legs,  thanks to Dickers! But who cares, cause I love it! :)



Literary Stylings Link Party

Sometimes all of the moons align and you're able to heal the Dark Crystal and save the poor Podlings from being sucked dry by the Skeksis.  Or, as happened in my case, the moons align and you come up with an idea for your first ever link party; to create an outfit based on a book you're currently reading or recently read.


I'm calling it Literary Stylings and it was influenced by Style Imitating Art (shout out to Jess and Salazar) and this post on Go Fug Yourself in which the Fug Girls hoped the dress is question was inspired by a book (Hunger Games, in fact).

I figured why not wear clothes that are inspired by literature?  I mean, surely that could be kind of fun, right?  Well, if you agree, here's the fine print:
  1. The Literary Stylings Link Party will go up on the first Tuesday of every month.  If you join in, don't forget to link your post back to Fashion for Giants.
  2. I was going to suggest a book for people to read but I don't want to foist my strange literary leanings onto folks, so pick any book you choose.
  3. If you're not a blogger and you still want to participate, you can post your photos on the Fashion for Giants FB page.
  4. The inspired look does not have to be a costume, but it certainly can be.  Any level of inspiration in creating your outfit is appreciated.
  5. Have fun!

I know this is super late notice (the moons align when they align; you can't do anything about that), but if you're currently reading a book that you'd like to base an outfit on, I'll have the link up on Tuesday, July 2nd. 

I just finished Auntie Mame and was, of course, inspired by Mame's utter fabulousness, so I'm very excited to put together a look based on Patrick Dennis' book:




I hope you all can join me!

Lea - Rue Tiquetonne - Paris

      Lea - Rue Tiquetonne - Paris

      J'ai rencontré la jolie Lea et ses yeux noisettes rue Tiquetonne. Elle porte une veste Firetrap et un
      pantalon H&M (qui brille). Son petit sac est vintage de Sonia Rykiel. Ses sandales sont des Geox.
      Son parfum est de chez Margiela. Lea est styliste et son rêve le plus grand serait de continuer à
      travailler pour l'agence Mafia où elle fait actuellement un stage. So pire cauchemar serait de perdre
      la vie ne se noyant dans la mer.

Tehani - Etienne Marcel - Paris

      Tehani - Etienne Marcel - Paris

      J'ai croisé la belle Tehani pour la seconde fois avenue Etienne Marcel. Elle travaille chez Diesel et
      elle est spécialiste femme. Son short et son top sont des Diesel justement. Son manteau est de chez
      H&M, son chapeau est vintage et ses chaussures sont des Asos. Le collant bicolore est un AA.
      La rêve le plus fou de Tehani est de chanter à Bercy devant 30 000 personnes et son pire
      cauchemar est d'être enfermée dans une pièce remplie de papillons. Mais sa préoccupation du
      moment, c'est l'amour qui selon elle est bien compliqué (ça c'est vrai).

Georgio - Rue Montorgueil - Paris

      Georgio - Rue Montorgueil - Paris

      C'est la coiffure de Georgio qui a attiré mon regard au premier abord (coupe "Pompadour" si je ne
      me trompe pas). Georgio est organisateur de soirée et son rêve le plus grand serait de faire des
      shootings de Mode comme mannequin. Côté look, Georgio est habillé en H&M, sauf pour les
      chaussures qui sont des Van's. Son parfum est "Rive Gauche" de YSL. Il est inutile de chercher son
      sac plein de poils partout. C'est une création unique de sa maman !

Andrea - le Marais - Paris

      Andrea - le Marais - Paris

      J'ai croisé la jolie Andrea dans le Marais où elle vendeuse de sex toys (voilà c'est dit) et elle est aussi
      musicienne. Elle porte des Converse, un short H&M, un débardeur Zara et une chemise achetée à
      Londres en friperie. Elle a aussi un sac militaire acheté en Inde. Son parfum préféré est "Bois
      d'Argent" de Dior. Dans la vie, son rêve est de pouvoir voyager partout et tout le temps et son pire
      cauchemar serait de plus pouvoir jouer de la musique.

      Alexia - Rue Tiquetonne - Paris

      J'ai croisé la belle Alexia rue Tiquetonne devant chez Kiliwatch. Je sais peu de choses sur elle. Elle
      travaille comme chef de rang dans un restaurant de Saint-Germain des Prés. Ce jour-là, elle portait
      un chapeau appartenant à son ami. À mon sens Alexia représente assez bien la parisienne dans sa
      version décontractée.

      J'ai croisé Eric à plusieurs reprises lors de la semaine de la Mode à Paris. Je sais qu'il est public
      relations pour des actrices chinoises, quand elles viennent à Paris. J'ai bien aimé son pull avec des
      petits lapins marrants.

Embrace the Gray

Oregon, being Oregon, only has summery weather approximately every fourth or fifth day.  Saturday was gorgeous, Sunday it rained like hell, yesterday was overcast and today is more of the same.  With some more rain thrown in because Oregon is ridiculous.  I don't have the strength to fight it, so I've decided to embrace the gray:



Literally.  I hugged each and every one of these pieces before I put them on.  The pieces being a gray sweater skirt (Macy's) with a gray sweater (JC Penney) and dark gray boots (Gap).  Yep, just gray on gray on gray.  But, I think the print on the skirt keeps it from being too dull.

Also, this sweater looks like a crop top on me.  It think it's a combination of my giant size and the fact that I shrunk it in the wash:


Thank goodness this skirt can be hiked up to make up for the possibly disastrous lack of sweater.

Happy Tuesday, All!
