[ DIY Black lace dress - custom made boots-wedges - PETRICIAEURE monster high head necklace ]

Ola hermosas!

I know it's waaaaay passed Halloween, but as I just received this quirky decapitated doll head necklace, I just so inspired to wear my black lace dress. Ok now, to be honest this post is super long overdue, and I supposed to post this before the holidays, not really (this) long after Halloween to be exact. :(( I'm so sorry to whom it may concerns...

Oh and, HAPPY NEW YEAR YOU GUYS!! I'm sooo excited about this year. Pray that something best happens (again) this year. Cheers to us! :))

I'm also so very excited to give you a bit spoiler that my LOOK I'M NOT A FLUKE will have a rocking project with one of the BEST (you def know it) local brand!! Will be released so very soon this January. ;D Hope you follow my L.I.N.F. Instagram account [HERE] to not missing out any of the news, discounts, and this surprise of course!


Then, I got so blessed, again, for this feature on SPEAK Magazine. Thanks!!

Until next post, toodles-doodles!

Call Me Magenta

So, surprise! :D 

Finally I dyed my whole head- well practically my hairstylist did. And they're changing color everyday. At first it was more red-ish magenta, and now it turns pink-ish magenta. I'm keeping the length because I thought it'd add up a whole dramatic silhouettes on me, and mostly to my outfit.

Enuf about my hair, I'm quite happy that my office has moved out to another address, despite it's quite double the traffic and the distance. The happy part I was talking about is the available free lot to shoot my outfit photos. As you can see in this pots- and I believe in more posts to come, it's actually the empty lot just in front of the (office) building's lobby. Thanks to my blogger mate turned to colleague, Lulut Marganingtyas, we become each other's photographer and do this outfit shoot around the building quite often.

Cropped Sister

Ahoy there!

Guess I'm crawling back down from the 'lousy blogger' status, since I posted more frequent now. ;p 

So God is so good to me- as He always been since I first breathing. There're just  too many great things came in my life recently. I've got a new promotion at work, new friends- lots of them, new wonderful partner in love, new sponsors for the blog, new magazine features, and just when I thought that's enough, I got the chance to be involved in to a Christian music-video production where I was asked to be their stylist. It was a wonderful experience with them and just cannot wait to share the mv with you guys once it's released!

Moving on to my outfit, as what's this personal style blog about, latterly I just so crazily, stupidly in love with cropped top- and just about anything cropped for my top! ;D You guys would probably realized that already from my previous posts that I've been wearing lots of them. And to tell you the truth, I've been piling quite a lot more on my closet. So as I dropped into this one new local label, leonyevelyn, I fell in love quite instantly with their cropped corduroy floral blazer! Well to say that cropped blazer kinda hard to pulled off to most outfits, I'm not necessarily agree. I think it goes well with maxi dresses, and perhaps like my outfit, 'cropped-on-cropped' might be another options. For more subsided look, unlike me, you could hid your belly-button by wearing high-waisted skirt or pants or short and still showing just a little bit of skin around your upper tummy with that cropped-on-cropped ensemble. Maybe I could show you some DIY looks with this cropped blazer/top on another outfit post, you know… just another ideas to pull of cropped outfit. ;)

I've been wearing this cropped corduroy floral blazer quite a lot. I mean, the fact that my fave fabric on my fave type of outfit, just literally a giant love for me. It kinda rounded up my style pretty much: corduroy for the ultimate retro vibes, florals for my hippy entities, and most importantly, black for my grunge compulsion. My admiration goes to the designer, Evelyn, behind the label for making that piece definitely with love. For you who love girly-fitted dresses, tops, and outers with unique twist on it, just click over their site HERE and buy some looks!

Oh also, this is the first ever feature post on my blog! ;D Meet this unique-styled girl, whom I met through blogging, Iness of aiiness.com. We kinda made a sudden appointment for an outfit shoot together, and without any arrangement before, we both wearing florals and cropped top! How crazy is that coincidence?! Lol. Go to her blog right away to check out what she wore. And trillion thanks to my yakuza-looking dude / colleague, William Permana, who spared his Sunday time with me and Iness. Ps: Check out his fashion snap-shots on his tumblr, hampirvampir.

Aaand, last but not least, I (or we) got featured home page on Chictopia yesterday for this outfit under Cropped Tops section! ;D Oh, so happy! Thanks to leonyevelyn for this sponsored outfit-post!

Until next post, toodles-doodles!

Happy Halloween From Lydia Deetz!

Happy Halloween guys!

To make this holiday merrier (although it's not even a holiday here in my country), I decided to do a costume outfit post inspired by my forever favorite movie from the 80s, Beetlejuice! ;D I loooove this character played by Winona Ryder as one of the main characters, Lydia Deetz. I just love her signature style of a strange Goth girl who feels isolated in the world. She loves writing poetry, photography, and keen on anything supernatural and paranormal. Lydia’s character is shown in the movie with deep black hair, long parted bangs, and brushy ponytail if she’s not wearing her black wide brim floppy hat. She also wears pale face makeup and peach eyeshadow around her eyelids, under her eyebrows and above her cheekbones. That’s practically what I did to pull off this Halloween outfit. ;)

I was actually inspired by Lydia's illustration (see again above) I got on tumblr. So I asked my bf to take a photo of this rather strange look just outside my front door. Since Lydia likes spider, so I wore this unique big spider ring and black machine ring from my lovely sponsor, BL!NG. They just released these two collections on store (Animal Instinct and Rock a'Rolla). You guys should drop by their store sometime! ;)

So, what's your Halloween costume guys? Let me know by sharing your link below at the comment box! ;)

Oh, and don't forget to say it three times! Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!! :D

Denim And Still, Floral

Casper & Pearl Headband - Thrifted Corduroy Floral Top - Thrifted Denim Jacket - Dorothy Perkins Suede Red Belt - Platform Shop Denim High Weisted short - Stradivarius Floral Socks - Adorable Project Indonesia Ankle Boots - Pull&Bear Black satchel

Hi gorgeous people!

It's near to a long holiday here in my country. This Muslim's holiday known as the worst traffic of the year coz each year people are like migrating back temporarily to their family or born place. My family and I usually drive a day trip to my grandparent's house somewhere in eastern Indonesia, but this year I'm not going anywhere I guess. Traffic is the least I would dealing in this holiday. :)

Annd, since I'm already on vacation since last week, I'm just wandering around this very city where I grew up and meeting up with some old friends. This was yesterday outfit. The shoes was new so I'm just paired it up with what's left on my suitcase that day- since I haven't got back to my apartment since last week. So it's pretty much casual with the denim and- still- floral prints everywhere. ;) The corduroy blue-white top and the light denim jacket was from thrift market, and has been two of my favorites since it very much wearable and mixable. I know original denim pairs would probably go against the current trend, but I don't see why not. :)

This one was a test shot, pardon my unprepared pose :p

Hope you like it! And again, BIG BIG thanks for each comments and supports you all gave me!! Means the world really!!

Ps: I'm so happy I can update my blog post more frequently now. :D

Until next post, toodles-doodles!
