Beyond The Bounds

Ola there!

One interesting point it life is to look just beyond the borders. To oversee what meets the eye. I know you might think that this post is kinda boring to read already, but I think I'm just gonna go with it anyway. Well, some of you my faithful readers know me well enough that I do sometimes talk about deep (I guess) nothing fashion-related stuff on my blog- rather than just my outfit details, of where I bought it and so on. So I do hope you keep reading on... :)

So I talked with one of my dear friend about life, dreams, and stuffs when you're at 20 something age. And cut it to the chase, I realised that not everyone has the opportunity to do what they really want to do in life. Well, some of them don't actually know what they really want, while the rest of them just look away from what they really want. We do compromise a lot. 

As for me, I'm really, really grateful that the Lord gives me this stubbornness to do things the way I like (most of the time). Not all good of course, this stubborness. But we're talking about positive things, dreams, and hopes here. Once I have strong opinion and thought about (any)things, I don't defeat my own supposition and compromise to other's strong opinion easily. I do listen and take them under consideration, but the only person who can change my mind is me per se.

Again, we're talking about positive things here, not all that prejudices and narrow-minded logical beliefs. I can go all day all night talking about myself, so I just cut it right there before you change your internet url. :p

Most of the time, it's the parents or our closest ones that pushes us away from standing in our (impossible) ground. With the reason of they 'know best' or that the have walked such path before, they make us compromise and change direction. Well, I'm not saying that children should go rebel to their parents, or friends to ignore their besties, rather I say that we all have different paths to go to, and most importantly we have different God-given talents and heart to follow through. The only person who should believe in your dream is you. If others are, it's a bonus. Don't expect that a lot.

The point is, when you know you're right, don't compromise. Stand on your ground.

Sky is never the limit, your head is.

You can do a lot if you belief you can do a lot.


Anyway I fell in love quite deeply with this dress from BRETZEL. I might say that I (finally) found one brand that meets my quirkiness and my odd fashion veins. Well, this dress' design speak for itself. Here's my wish list on their new collection > perfect little (peculiar) white dress. If you happen to need unique yet wearable dress for casual parties or such, I tell you honestly that their new arrivals is a buy-worthy. See it for yourself if you think I'm overselling them. :D

PS: I promise next post will be a lot easier to read. ;) xo

Strawberry Toes

Ola, hermosas!

I'm on fire for blogging lately! ;D So a couple of weeks ago, I received this lovely strawberry-red capped toe heels from The Lola House. It's just an instant love on the first sight! I love the unique-sweet round look upfront and the girly silhouette on other sides of the shoes. It suits well with my eclectic-girly look! Oh and I should tell you that the shoes is amazingly hand crafted in finest quality! From the moment I receive the gift (from a very lovely lady of The Lola House) up until I open the box, it was a total perfection! I'm a bit perfectionist myself, and I just admire people who puts attention to details. :)) Make sure you click on their webstore and have one of their totally comfortable and adorable pieces! Here's my other Lola love, CLICK.

Since the color is so bright and happy, I paired the shoes with my DIY lips-knee tights and mix prints between heart prints cut-out bralet with red starry skirt from Lodelis (psttt, this is a new label coming up soon! You gonna love it!!). And you guys know that I always left home without accessories, right? I think it's never came out wrong if we pair tights with wide floppy hat for a slight vintage-inspired look. ;D

I will spill the beans about this DIY tights recipe on the next post, so I hope you guys would drop by again for my new DoodleItYourself (DIY) series! ;)

And this Thank You note from The Lola House goes out from me to you.. :)

Floating Like A Tweety Bird

Hi there! How's your early week? Hope it all goes fine. :)

I'm glad my thesis is almost done. First submitting, done. And next week would be the final submission. Since they're 90% done, I decided to have fun and rest my brain off last full weekend. I got my cousin from out of town visit my parent's house and our whole bunch family had a fun weekend till Sunday. Just before I go to took my cousin wandered around the city, I take a few moment to do an outfit shoot.

The skirt I was wearing was soooo flowy and super light and comfy. Plus, the crochet top was also perfect for that partuclar hot day, as it has lotsa open cutout to makes me feel breezy. I just added up the floppy hat so the looks won't be too dull since I had not use much accessories like I usually do that day.

And as for the jumping scene, I got inspired from lotsa beautiful jumping photos I've see on styling sphere these days. So I decided to do one. I think I wore the perfect outfit for it. But then, it turns up I have all the photo stocks with me 'floating', not jumping. :( Yet, it turns up pretty neat and expose the whole outfit. Guess I need to learn and see more inspirations to do a perfect jumping photo. :)

Until next post, toodles-doodles!!
