'In Search Of Lost Times' (Marcel Proust)

Hello, dragi naši! :)

Kao što smo najavile, posjetile smo naše prijateljice Radmilu i Andreju, ponosne vlasnice našeg dragog Uličnog Ormara. Kao i uvijek, super smo se zabavile isprobavajući bajne haljinice koje su curke donijele iz Italije. Ove haljine potaknule su nas na potragu 'za izgubljenim vremenom'. Doista smo uživale u tom dalekom, izgubljenom vremenu...



As we promised, we visited our friends Radmila and Andreja, proud owners of our favourite vintage shop, Ulični Ormar. As always, we had a great time trying out the faboulous dresses brought from Italy. This dresses encouraged us for the 'search of the lost times'. We really enjoyed in those far, lost times...













Love, Dora, Stela and Ilina (from left to right)! :**

Keep it simple

Hello! :)

Uživate li u prekrasnom vikendu? 
Jedva sam dočekala ovo predivno vrijeme, stvoreno za kavu na suncu, šetnju i sl. Očito nisam jedina koja tako misli jer je zagrebačka 'špica' danas bila apsolutno krcata :)

Do you enjoy in this beautiful weekend?
I'm so happy because of this perfect weather, it's made for coffee in the sun, walk, etc. I'm not the only one who thinks like that, the center of Zagreb was really full of people today :)

Prije mega-posta iz Uličnog ormara, koji je u pripremi, evo jednog jednostavnog outfita od neki dan, kad smo bile u posjeti Uličnom ormaru...

Before the mega-post from Ulični ormar, which is in preparation, here's one very simple outfit of mine, from the other day...

  




what I wore: kaput/coat - Miss Selfridge, haljina/dress - Zara, remen/belt - H&M, cipele/shoes - Zara, torba/bag - Zara, prsteni/rings - vintage and Playround, naočale/sunglasses - Ray Ban

Nadam se da vam se sviđa :)
Hope you like it :)

Kisses to all of you, 
Dora

Any ballerina and Pavlov’s dog would drool at the sight of this...

Pavlova torta dugo je bila na mom popisu prije nego što sam se odvažila konačno napraviti je...
Svaki strah povezan s neuspjehom u izradi ove torte potpuno je bezrazložan... beze kore uopće nije komplicirano napraviti ... tako da, kad god imate viška bjelanjaka s kojima ne znate što napraviti, savjetujem pripremu ove predivne tortice, koja se zaista topi u ustima...








Originalni receptić iz jedne je stare kanadske kuharice. Ja sam ga pronašla na ovoj stranici .
Jedine izmjene su te što sam u vrhnje za šlag umjesto šećera u prahu, dodala 2 vanilin šećera i malo ruma. Od voća, koristila sam ananas i breskve iz kompota, koji su mi, kao i bjelanjci, ostali od neki dan objavljene torte od sira, te višnje.
Tortu preporučam svima onima koji vole lagane i voćne torte. A čokoladoljupci neka se ne brinu, bit će i čokoladnih poslastica za njih, vrlo skoro! ;)







Pavlova cake has been on my to do list for a long time... Once I made it, I realized how simple it is to make this cake... I was afraid without a reason!
For those who like very light cakes with fruit in them, I recommend this cake.
This is the recepie;

For the ˝beze crust˝ / beze kore
6 egg-whites/ 6 bjelanjaka (tj. 5 većih ili 6 manjih)
220 g sugar/ 220 g šećera
1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract/ pola žličice esencije vanilije
1 teaspoon vinegar/ 1 žličica octa (alkoholnog)

Filling/ nadjev
1/2 L cream/ pola litre slatkog vrhnja
2 vanilla sugar/ 2 vanilin šećera
rum
different frut/ razno voće prema željama


Draw 3 circles on backing paper, diameter of 18 cm.
Mix the egg-whites until they are very hard, than add little by little sugar, vinegar and vanilla extract until the mixture is hard and smooth (it doesn't take too long).
Put the mixtute on the circles, and then in the oven for 1 hour on 140 °C.
If you put all three circles on different level/height in the oven, you have to switch the position every 10 min, so that they would be backed even.
After an hour, turn off the oven, open it just a bit and leave the crusts inside for some time (half an hour).
Than take the crusts out of the oven an leave them for a few hours (or over night)
Then take the backing paper off and start layering them with cream you mixed with vanilla sugar and rum (I use 3 spoons of rum or more, but you can use as much as you like, or not use it at all).
And after every layer of cream, comes the fruit; as much as you like and what ever kind you like.
(I used pineapple, peaches and cherries from compot.)
On top you can put some chopped almonds if you like too.

I hope you like this cake!
Have a great day!
Love,  Stela


P.s. Puno, puno hvala našim dragim prijateljicama,  Hypnotic Mushroom, Nataši i Dragani na nominacijama! To nam mnogo znači! :)

Fancy a slice?

Tajna sretnog života nalazi se u sitnicama. Ponekad je to slasna kriška fine torte od sira iz koje vire komadići ananasa i breskve. Jer ne postoji dan kojeg komad dobrog deserta ne bi mogao uljepšati... barem meni. :)
Za one slične meni, slijedi recept za ovu fotogeničnu biskvitnu tortu od sira s voćem.













Sastojci/ ingredients:

biskvit/ biscuit
6 jaja/ 6 egs
175 g šećera/ 175 g sugar
1 vanilin šećer/ 1 vanilla sugar
120 g brašna/ 120 g flour
80 g jestivog škroba/ 80 g edible starch
1 prašak za pecivo/ 1 backing powder

Nadjev/ filling
10 listića želatine / 10 leafs of gelatin
4 žumanjka/ 4 yolks
2 žlice soka od limuna/ 2 spoons of lemon juice
150 g šećera/ 150 g sugar
1 vanilin šećer/ 1 vanilla sugar
4 žlice ruma/ 4 spoons of rum
400 g slatkog vrhnja/ 400  g cream
500 g svježeg sira/ 500 g fresh cheese
150 g bresaka i 150 g ananasa iz kompota/ 150 g pineapple and 150 g peach from compote
6 žlica marmelade/ 6 spoons of jam

Izmiksajte žumanjke s polovicom šećera i vanilin šećerom, a bjelanjke s drugom polovicom šećera. Sjedinite obje smjese i dodajte ostale sastojke, dobro izmješajte i stavite peći na 175 °C oko 35 minuta.

Namočite želatinu, žumanjke kuhajte na pari sa sokom od limuna, šećerom, vanilin šećerom i rumom. Maknite s pare te dodajte ocijeđenu želatinu, pa sir, tučeno slatko vrhnje i na kraju narezano voće.

Ohlađeni biskvit prerežite, te svaku polovicu premažite marmeladom. U kalup stavite polovicu biskvita, zatim kremu i gornju polovicu biskvita. Držite u frižideru 4 sata, prije nego što idete rezati tortu. Možete je ukrasiti šećerom u prahu.

Nadam se da vam se ovaj receptić sviđa! :)
Čitamo se uskoro!


Mix the yolks with half of sugar and vanilla sugar. Mix the egg-whites with the rest of the sugar, and than mix them with yolks, flour, starch and baking powder. Combine everything well, and put in the oven for 35 minutes, on 175 °C.

Prepare the gelatin (put it in the water). Cook the yolks with lemon juice, sugar, vanilla sugar and rum on steam, mix all the time, put it away and then  then add  gelatin, cheese and whipped cream.
Then add sliced fruit. 

When the biscuit is cold, slice it in two halfs, cover both with jam and put filling in the middle (base has to be in the mold, then comes the filling, and then the upper part).
Leave it in the fridge for 4 hours.
(you can decorate it with powder sugar like I did)

Hope you like it! 
Let me know if you do! :)

Stela

p.s. U slijedećem postu receptić za prekrasnu tortu za koju se mogu iskoristiti bjelanjci koji su ostali od ove.

Museum of Broken Relationships

Hello!
Nas tri (iako sve tri u sretnim vezama/braku) nismo baš posebne zaljubljenice u Valentinovo. Smatramo to pomalo komercijaliziranim praznikom i taj koncept da nekog voliš baš određeni dan nam je pomalo smiješan, mi volimo svaki dan! ;)
Upravo zato vam u ove "valentinovske" dane dajemo zanimljivu priču o Muzeju prekinutih veza u Zagrebu.
Muzej, koji je nastao iz putujuće izložbe s konceptom propalih veza i njihovih ruševina, osmislili su Olinka Vištica i Dražen Grubišć u Hrvatskoj, a otada je obišao svijet i prikupio nevjerojatnu zbirku. Njegova zbirka sastoji se od brojnih običnih i neobičnih predmeta, koji su svojevrsni simboli propalih ljubavnih veza različitih ljudi kako iz Hrvatske, tako i iz čitavog svijeta. Svaki donirani predmet prati zanimljiva priča njegova darovatelja. Muzej nudi svakome jedinstvenu terapiju za prekid veze: svatko može donirati Muzeju poneki predmet, koji ga podsjeća na propalu vezu, i na taj način barem malo ubrzati osobno izlječenje...
Mi smo se prije nekoliko dana zaputile u Muzej smješten u starom dijelu Zagreba, na Gornjem gradu, u predivnoj baroknoj Kulmerovoj palači...Evo što nam je zapelo za oko:

The three of us are not huge fans of Valentine's day. We find it overcommercionalized, and this concept of loving someone on some special day is a bit funny to us. So today, in the spirit of Valentine's day, we would like to introduce you to a Museum of Broken Relationships in Zagreb, Croatia. The Museum grew from a traveling exhibition revolving around the concept of failed relationships and their ruins. It's exhibits are ordinary and not so ordinary objects, left after a brake up, and each object is followed by an interesting story of it's donator. Museum offers everyone a therapy for a broken heart: anyone can donate an object from his or her's broken relationship and in that way speed up a healing process a little bit. Here are the things that caught our eyes:
    Ljubavno pismo na slomljenom staklu / Love letter on shattered glass...
Vrtni patuljak za razvode - odletio u vjetrobransko staklo bivšeg muža...
Divorce day mad dwarf - ended up in a car windshield...
Umjetne grudi - komentar nepotreban!
Fake breasts - no comment necessary!
Retrovizor otrgnut u naletu bijesa zbog laži...iako donatorica priznaje da retrovizor nije ništa kriv...
Rear-wiew mirror torn out of rage because of a lie..., although a donator admits that the mirror is not to blame...
Muzej ima i simpatičnu ponudu suvenira, kao recimo ove gumice...
Museum has a nice offer of souvenirs, lake those erasers...
Dakle, ako još niste bili, a u blizini ste, svakako zavirite u ovaj nekonvencionalni muzej i otkrijte zašto je 2011. godine dobio Nagradu Kenneth Hudson za najinovativniji muzej u Europi! A ako vas put nanese u Zagreb, Muzej svakako treba biti jedna od vaših destinacija...
So, if you find yourselves in Zagreb, or you catch this Museum on tour, you should visit it to find out why it is a winner of Kenneth Hudson Award for the most innovative museum in Europe...

Dragi naši, sretno vam Valentinovo! ;)
And of course, happy Valentine's day to all of you! ;)

Love, Dora, Stela and Ilina

Little bottles of pure happiness!

Hello!

Moja ljubavna priča (osim one s Dečkom ^^) započela je...pa...prilično davno. Za nju je u potpunosti odgovorna – moja mama.
My love story (except the one with my Boyfriend ^^) started...well...a long time ago. My mum is completely responsible for it.   


Kao što pristoji najvećoj ljubiteljici parfema, njene police bile su prepune (a takve su i danas) parfema u savršenim bočicama.  Znatiželjno sam otvarala mamine 'čarobne' bočice i 'šnjofala' ih sve redom. Rodila se ljubav, bezuvjetna i vječna...između čarobnih bočica i mene!
As the biggest fan of perfumes, her shelfs were (and still are) full of perfumes in perfect bottles. I was curiously opening her 'magic' bottles and smell them all. So, unconditional and everlasting love was born...between magic bottles and me.

Chanel 'Chance - Eau Fraiche' i Clinique 'Happy', božićni i rođendanski poklon od dečka :)
Obožavam i hidratantni sprej za tijelo, također 'Chance'!

Dior 'J'adore', 'Love, Chloé' i 'Chloé'...mmm, ne mogu se odlučiti koji mi je savršeniji. A J'adore stavljam samo kad sam jaaako dobre volje :)

Moram priznati da ova dva povremeno kradem mami! Chanel 'Allure' i Gucci 'Flora'. Obožavam ih!

Ovo su moji najdraži parfemi, s tim da mi je apsolutno najdraži, ili kako volim reći, 'moj' parfem, Chanel Chance - Eau Fraiche...
Koji su vaši najdraži parfemi? Da li je to možda jedan od ovih?
These are my favourite perfumes, and my absolute No.1 is Chanel Chance - Eau Fraiche..
Which are your favourite perfumes? Is it maybe one of these here? 


Uživajte u vikendu dragi moji, šaljem vam puse uz riječi velikog Christiana Diora, u koje sam duboko uvjerena:
''Long after one has forgotten what a woman wore, the memory of her perfume lingers''.
Enjoy in weekend, I'm sending you kisses along with the words of great Christian Dior, in which I firmly believe:
''Long after one has forgotten what a woman wore, the memory of her perfume lingers''.

Love, Dora

A Bag Maniac

Hello! 
Nakon Stele i njezine ljubavne priče s cipelama, evo i moje, a to su torbe! Ja sam manijak za torbe, mogla bih ih kupovati uvijek i svugdje. Što uglavnom i radim! ;)
Evo dijela moje (male) kolekcije:

S putovanja se gotovo uvijek vratim s torbom. Manja torba je iz Maroka, od devine kože (malo i smrducka, ali baš me briga) i s marokanskim novčićima. Veća torba je kupljena u Bruxellesu, inače je vintage iz 50-ih.
I adore bags, and when I travel I almost allways return with a bag. So small bag is from Morocco and big one is from Bruxelles, vintage.
Već ste vjerojatno zamijetili da volim vintage torbe (između ostalog). Ove su mi posebno drage, tri (na podu) su stigle iz Brazila jako davno, a ostale su iza jedne stare tete Teodore. Ova mala koja "visi" je suprugov poklon, kupljena na sajmu antikviteta na zagrebačkom Britancu. 
You've probably noticed that I love vintage bags (among other vintage things). These bags are very dear to me, those three (on the floor) came from Brasil and I inherited them from an old lady named Teodora. Small one ("hanging") is a present from my hausband, from a local flee market.
Ove dvije su za malo posebnije prilike, tako da su pohodile sve promocije, svadbe, kazališta i ine događaje...Crna je vintage, Ulični Ormar, a šljokičasta Accessorize, od prije nekoliko godina.
These two bags are for some special occasions, black one is vintage from a super vintage shop in Zagreb Ulični Ormar, and small one is from Accessorize.

Evo, ovo je ispovijest jednog torba-manijaka!
Čitamo se uskoro, Ilina

So, this is a confession of a bag maniac!
Love, Ilina

A Love Story

Ovo je ljubavna priča o cipelama...

Shoes are my guilty pleasure...  (and chocolate too, but that's one different love story). It's not that I don't like bags, I do... but shoes are my real love. These are some of my favorites, hope you like them, I know I do... and my dog seems to like them too...   ;)


     Evo nekih od mojih najdražih;  My little shoe family;









 (prva četiri para/first four pairs; Zara, slijedeća dva/next two; Dorothy Perkins, 
posljednje/last ones; Kenzo)
 
    NO!!! DON'T TAKE THEM AWAY FROM ME!!!


   Love, Stela

P.s. prigodna poruka mom dečku;
Ne Domagoj, nemam previše cipela, ne, nemam već jedne iste takve i da, treba mi baš taj par! Pusa! ;)
