Polka Dance in Floral Velvet and Gloomy Days

Holla.

Today's a bit gloomy for me. I'd say my guts a bit gray inside. :( Well you see, it's really hard to watch others get what you've been wanted so easily. Even so I realized to get myself even harder to believe that doing the best will only bring me to the best thing in the end.

Not gonna say much on today's post due to the severe writer's block lately, and the grey heart particularly. :p

But, you guys and this blog really keep me going on. Hope tomorrow will be better, I believe so. :)

Ola beautiful people!!

I got a haircut last weekend, whereafter I had a nice family time back in my hometown. It's been a while since my last visit to my parents house, and I kinda missed my dogs and places I usually took my self outfit photos. So there I was, having a little picnic and a sisters bonding time in one fine afternoon. I just made the garlands for my new upcoming collection in Woodland Faerie around noon and decided to wear one. Ps: you can now order this baby by sending me an email. :)

Speaking about my hair. What do you think, guys? I have this huge crush over Zooey Deschanel on New Girl series, and that includes her outfit and her hair. So I decided to have a full blunt bangs, which I think kinda creates a retro looks on me, while next week I'm planning to re-curl my hair up. I case ya'll doesn't know, my natural hair is pretty thick and straight. I've been permanently curling my hair every year since high school.

Then back again to the picnic land that afternoon with my sister. We were self-amusing our self by watching an old (we're guessing) and super long earthworm crossing the road from one side to the other. Too bad we forgot to snap a picture of the earthworm with our camera. :( But, I did took some shots of my sister and her outfit in our little picnic land. Oh, and I just love her glasses. in fact, I bought it from Bershka just before I went to my parents house, but since I was in hurry I didn't try it on properly. My face is just too big for them! Argh! What a shame. So, I gave it to her instead. :)

To close this week's post, I'd love to share you couple of inspiration. So I've made this illustration  for Mei's blog of Girl with Plastic Camera out of her photo, whereas I had the opportunity to took part in her blog project. So happy that she love my hand-drawn illustration. Yay!

The second inspiration came from this MEGA AH-MAZING band called Walk Off The Earth (WOTE and the Beard Guy)! I love the originality of their ideas and how they interpret their creativity in a simplest way that people usually never think of. Go watch and subs right away fellas!

At the very very last, I would want to say something to all the underdogs wherever you are (and that including myself). Upon my days I witnesses that there are more and more people who are and who will underestimating you. Trying to run to other people, even the parents, is just as worthless and disappointing as saying 'I can' to those people who underestimating you. Yet you know what? Run to God is another way around. I had a pretty rough days to start the week, and people, whoever they are, are just big disappointment. So if I can say a bit advise as your friend, when things get bad, try to shut your mouth, share is to no one, and pray inside your heart. I bet no matter how short your prayer is, He listens. Then before you know it, things will get better eventually. :) After praying, thing I loves to do after is blogging. And here I am, smiling and cheered up to receive your meaningful support to this blog. I'm also happy to tell you that I've been featured as Stylist of the Week by StyleSays. If you're a self-claimed stylist, like me, you will love this fashion site. Plus it's a great great way to promote ourself! So click the link without a doubt guys! ;)

Ola, people!! I'm so glad I can finally post again!

How's your first days in October? Mine was super great! I finally finished my study, exactly on the first of October. :) Then yesterday was the first lazy day for me, which also happened to inspiring me somehow. Not to be lazy-er today, but to playing dressed up  instead.

 Last night I watched this 60's black and white movie and totally inspired by the clothes of the female actress on the movie since I just got similar hat wore on the movie.My mom was just go back from Bangkok last week, and she bought me this cute retro hat. I love it so much. I think I need to plan to go shopping there again sometime soon. :p

So, since I don't specifically have anything to do this afternoon, so I did drive someplace near my house to do an outfit photos. Unfortunatelly, there is no train station nearby just like I pictured in my head to do this outfit photos. But it turned out pretty fine I guess. And on the way home until right now I'm writing this post, the song 'Avalon' by Coco D'or is just keep shufflin in my head and in my iTunes. :D

Just hope you like it!

Appreciation

 

Hi all,

To begin with,  I just wanna say my sympathy to our fellow in Japan due to the earthquake and Tsunami hits yesterday. Our prayer here from Indonesia and other caring countries always be for you. And to our Japanese blogger friends, I just hope you're ok there.

So, the reason of my post today is to admit how ignorance I was to my local fashion bloggers. Ever since I started to blog, I barely browse on the locals. I, fortunately, have many abroad blogger friends, but very few Indonesian friends. :( This is ugly, coz they're soooooo many fashion geniuses on my country! And to make up with that, here's my standing applause for them Indonesian fashion ingenuity:

Michelle Koesnadi from glistersandblisters. She knows just how to work the high-end brands! She has amazing amazing outfit photos, which she took by herself! Her shoes and accessories collection are totally to die for. She's a talented photographer too.

Diana Rikasari from hot chocolate and mint. She's the no.1 it girl in the local blogging world. She's  featured on every local magazines and sites, and became the 'someone' in Indonesian street fashion. And most importantly, she started from blogging! She has tons of very unique and one of a kind outfits, which she photographed on her colorful bedroom. Her creativity in design and fashion is surely no doubted.

Bethanny Putri Supriadi from afternoon tea and living room. She's the creative director of de.cada.dia, a brand of her own.  Her style is simply fabulous with amazing shoes collection. I love her, coz she loves coffee brown as much as I do. :)

Fhenny from Little Miss Fhenny. Another fashionista in Jakarta who's also a fashion writer. Her style is ecletic, and always know how to combine outfits from head to toe.

Diana Caitilin from call me Dyiiin!. This pretty fashionista is currently studying fashion in Malaysia. Her fashion attempts is always creative, girly, and unique at the same time. She has several fashion quotes of which I def couldn't agree more!

Evita Nuh from The creme de la crop. Ok about this girl, I envy her so much! Coz she found her signature style at a very super young age!! She's just 12 yo Indonesian girl who already became a style icon! Her featured list is suuuuuper long. She's an amzing writer and have an incredibly taste of fashion. I wonder what she'll be in next few years.

Sabila Anata from Pastel Girl. Another stylish young girl who able to put up unwearable piece of clothing into a chic looks. Her pose is undeniably cute and funny (in a good way of course). :)

Carissa Vicky from la petit poucet. Now this girl has amazing photos. And yup, she's another great self-photos-taker. Like her blog name, she has a petite body with a girly and chic style of fashion. I really enjoying her photographs on her blog so much.

Karina Pricilla from fabooshbaboosh. This fashionista has shoes collection that'll makes you shoe-gasm! Her clean photographs just captured perfectly of her every amazing pieces of clothing.

And that's just a very few of wonderful fashion bloggers here in my country. You guys should def click on their links and have a cup of inspiration from each one of them. And as for you girls, whom the name is listed on this post (if you ever read this), just don't mind me.  I'm just nobody who admire your blog and your love in fashion so much. :)

Oh, and the dress was my mom's. A legacy part 2. ;)

Legacy (Part.1)

I had a blast last weekend. Also, the best thing is, my Mom visited me and gave me a bag full with granma's and her old clothes! Super Yay!! :D So today, without any hesitation I put this dress on to my office. The dress is actually a bit too big for me on the shoulder, but you guys know that will never stop us for wearing granma's/ mom's dress, right? ;)

Ok, since I have this new collection of old clothes, I will probably continue to wear them up. So there will be part 2,3, ect sometime soon. I hope you like it!
