Going Brown

IMG_0681

Hi, everyone! 2014 is only 4 days away.. and I'm going to Bali with my friends the day after tomorrow. Yayy~! I hope the trip will be fun and smooth, the weather will be nice, and everyone will be safe.

 This trip is arranged by us (10 people) and we're not going with our parents, which is our very first experience! :D. It was just a silly idea at first when I and my friends were just chatting during the empty hours at school last October.
The boys said they wanted to go to Singapore together this holiday without the parents. Then, me who sat in front of them 'overheard' their conversation and I told them that going to Singapore without your parents won't be 'that' fun since we usually do a lot of shopping in Singapore, but without our parents our 'financial' things won't be easy. ahahha. We'd just likely spend 2 nights there and went to Universal Studio / MBS (although we won't buy anything at MBS) .
Soo.. I suggested to go to Bali instead.. Because in my opinion Bali will be much interesting. Not only the attractions we can play at the beaches / cruises, but Bali got  so many amazing beach clubs lately and maaany yummy restaurants. >w<
Usually.. When we planned an 'independent (without parents)' trip like this, it never came true. The problems would start from our parents' permission, the costs, etc. But this time, it's like a miracle because all of our parents gave us the permission! And after that we started to book the plane tickets, hotels,tour packages, etc.. Heheheh yaayyy!! Wish us luck ^^

I wore this outfit a few days ago before I had a hairperm.. Yes, I got a hairperm because I always wanted to have some volume on my too sleek hair. I'm so jealous with girls with naturally wavy and bouncy hair T.T. I also saw Yoona's hair on Prime Minister & I, and wanted my hair to look like that.
Sadly, on the first day after I got my hair permed, my hair became super curlyyyy like Merida's hair on Brave -_-. The salon used a small roller on my hair and when I asked them to use a bigger one so the wave would be bigger too, they said it's not good because it'd fade so easily compared to the price I paid.
So, on the next day I went to the salon again to wash & straight-blow my hair, to make it more loose.

This is the 'loose' version after I went to the salon again . But after I washed my hair again last night, my hair became curly again although it's not as curly as the first day haha. *forgive my impatience*

I wore this outfit twice with some changes.. hehe. I love this coat so much and wanted to wear this again, so I 're-created' the outfit ^o^. This coat is not too thick and perfect for this rainy weather. Although the weather in Indonesia is still hot compared to the rain, but it's not a big deal since we hang out at malls more often and there are AC all over the mallssss.. heheheh ;p

Here are some of my favorite products from Cloth Inc.
Their collections are very stylish and up-to-date, in good quality, and affordable price too. It's totally perfect for you who want to be stylish but don't want to spend too much money.

Cloth Inc Lookbook

One thing that I really like from Cloth Inc is that they're not overpriced.
There are so many local brands in Indonesia with good designs, but sometimes the price is waay to overpriced. I'm fine if their clothes' quality is also good, but there are some brands that don't have a nice sewing quality, and back then I ever found a local DESIGNER brand, who used a cheap fabric (I found the same fabric that she used in a local store, and the price for 1meter was only IDR 32.000) and she sold the dress (which the design was also so 'common') for almost 1 millon =_=

Soo yeah... Cloth Inc has always been one of my recommended online stores. They manufactured their products by themselves too. So, we don't need to worry about their quality ;)

Sweater Weather

IMG_0619

The weather has always been cloudy, rainy, and windy these days. Although Indonesia doesn't have winter season, at least I can snuggle in my favorite sweaters at these kinds of weather (rainy season). 

I wore this outfit yesterday to the salon. I had a full body spa treatment, which was the first time ever after 3 years, I suppose ?
I don't really like going to a salon because I hate waiting, the noisy sound of hairdryer, or even the smell of chemical stuffs in hairdye/stuffs like that in the salon, and I've always preferred watching korean dramas / dating with my macbook over creambath during my leisure time. hahaha >.<. 

Butt yesterday I really needed to go because my skin got sooo tan after the classmeeting, and I couldn't do body-scrubbing by myself (which I usually do at home rather than going to a salon) due to my palm injury (the skin on my palm was peeled off bcs of tug of war) T^T. The 3 hours of massage, scrubbing, bubble bath, steaming, etc. was so good I felt like I'd just reborned . hahahh xD.

50 Layers of Floral

IMG_0190a

I did this little photoshoot by myself (tripod+selftimer) last Wednesday. I took around more than 70 photos but I'm not going to use most of it because... at the first half of this session, I didn't curl my hair and my hair didn't look good.. So I decided to 'pause' my mini photo session, curled my hair (loosely), then took some photos again. Hahahah ;P

I lovee this tulle skirt that I received from Vogue Couture Shop. It's totally pretty and there are still a lot of outfit ideas in my mind about how to mix and match this skirt with other stuffs.. Hehehe... But this time I decided to pair it with light blue denim, florals, and pink. Blue and Pink are definitely my favorite colors :)

By the way, actually I wanted to do this photoshoot outside, I wished I'd climb up a tree and sat on it. But there's no one who had time to take me photos of me at that time and a great photoshoot spot that fits this theme's located farrrrr from my house. But then, my mom gave me the idea to take photos using this 'ladder'. Hahahah. I hope you don't find this weird ;p (well, it's not a magazine shoot/ serious shoot... so don't take this seriously. i just wanna have some funn.. hehehe ^^)

Before holiday starts, there's still a week of school. But it's gonna be fun because there's a classmeeting at school! The competitions are tug of war, smapiball (our school's very own version of softball+baseball), badminton, etc. And on the first day of classmeeting we'll ride bike together too around the city before the competitions start, hehehe~~..

Have a nice weekend everyone!! :)

Jacquard

8 days of sleepless nights (a.k.a final exam) has ended and thankfully I've passed all the subjects announced. I'm so relieved and happy because I can wake up late and sleep as looongg as I want. >o<.

IMG_0006

This morning I woke up quite early to take some outfit photos because this blog has been so quiet lately and I just miss taking photos (or we can call it 'being photographed by myself (mr.tripod+self timer) so much!! When I woke up it was cloudy and rained a lil bit.. but thankkkfullyyy the rain stopped and it was sunny again!

IMG_0065

Christmas is just 2 weeks away and I can't help but to dress up with these xmas colors. I clashed the red daisy print sweater with the green jacquard floral print skirt altogether. Clashing patterns has always been fun and we should never be scared with what others will think.. Because it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring! hehehee ;)
