Duo Bonds

In days like this, days where u spend most of the time at home, it's a good thing to keep a good relationship with... ur sister

So we were really enjoying these new novel book we just got. Well as u can see that it's all about fashion and also stories of dream catchers, in the meaning of people going for their dreams. I'm probably fed up with some school books that i've been "holdin on" for the past entire time, so it's a good thing to just let my mind relax and serve it with books full of imagination. The story is very lightening and has a very adventurous plot, u can actually feel the Paris atmosphere by just reading it, because it explains very detail about the whole surroundings also with its French words. But i'm not going to spill it out all here because it'll be waaay better if u read it on ur own! U can these books over at PT. Bentang Pustaka to start an imaginary adventure :)

The patterns & colors on these twinny tops are very rich! Glad these top from Main Street Store came by, to give more variations to my closet. To be honest, to me, no matter how simple the cuts and design of an apparel is, as long as it has the creativity of using patterns&colors, the result will be an ultra hit! So 1 for Sabrina, and 1 for moi!

Wat wat wat

I've actually been searching for small handbags and finally found the perfect one over at Cicero Bags! It's called the Lauren Two-Tone Blue :o Then i wanted to have something different so chose the one in coral blue. I'm a bit addicted with Coral Blues since this one day... so there's this one time when i wanted to pray at a mosque, then i wore this coral blue veil (mukena) that they provided there. And i just looove how it looks... So the combination of coral blue and beige for this bag is a mega hit! Supaaah love it! <3>

 Another sneak peek here :p

And i probably can say that raglan sweaters are the best! I have the one in mint&grey from Picnic, now i have another one in pink&grey from ZLZ! This one also has this collar accent which well yes makes it complete. Perhaps i should be collecting other colors, yes?

Btw, i have this awesomeeeee news i wanna share!! But perhaps in my next posts hihi so do wait! ;)

It's Blue with a Ray at the end

This blue-ish effect thing makes it look more... scientific, eh?

How gemstones could be so... controvert

 How about if i offer u with gazillions of Sapphire gem stones?

Well i still have this "issue" with Sapphire Gem Stones... Here's how it started. While i was doing my Geography national exam, a question pretty much like this came out: Where is the exact location of Sapphire Gem Stones found in Indonesia. To be honest, i have no idea. I've studied the whole Geography book and learned where coals, petroleum oil, nickel, tin, gold, copper, diamonds, natural gas, etc are spread out in Indonesia, but NONE i've read about Sapphire Gem Stones... At school, course, extra classes at school, national exam exercises, nor books have discussed about this thing. Not even close to it... I've still wished that it would be more like where we can find copper which is in Papua, or Tin in Bangka Belitung, or coals in Jambi... But thank god that was the only question that got my nerves up. I've fought with my maximum ability and my hardest work, also accompanied  with nonstop prayers, so i believe that what ever the result is, that's what's best for me. U know, i was thinking to share my personal side of view about this year's national exam which went on not as scheduled ( knowing how the government handled it), but i'm just going to wait until the High School's national exam is over (which is still held now).

 But despite that Sapphire in geography, i loved the ones printed on the skirt! I really enjoy graphic prints on clothes, it shows much creativity, and also proves that graphic designing and fashion can collide in a perfect way :)

Shall shine the most

Some things just want to shine on it's own...

I've remembered a quote that pretty much said that, ones who aim for success are ones who shines the most. It's like this, ever known 2 people who goes to the same school perhaps from Junior High - Senior High - also the same college with the same majoring? 1 of them stayed normal, but the other one made success. How come? well the other one refused to stay "normal" and refused to "go with the flow", he couraged his self to go out of his comfort zone, and ambushed all the challenges. Among others, he shines. In the meaning, he's different. It's not always easy being different at the beginning, but well u should know that aiming success is never easy. If u choose to stay steady and blend with others, so how are people suppose to see ur ability? And while going through life, i always hold on to this philosophy. U gotta be "weird" sometimes.

And this look i've assembled describes that philosophy pretty well. I've gathered up a monochrome look, combination of white, beige, and a bit black. But i've purposely paired it with neon colored necklace and collar. So what first caught ur eyes from the first time u saw this look? The accessories in neon, right? Yes, exactly, just like the philosophy. It "shines".

Despite that, i've always loved a touch of brightness in a calm look. It just gives a freshening vibe :)

I know, navajo patterns are pretty mainstream these days, but i suppose if i create a different look (compared to what people usually pair navajo patterns with nowdays) to it makes it not so mainstream, yes? And actually, the big pattern in the center is gold colored, and i like it! It gives a more elegant touch.

Btw, have u spotted something different in my blog? YESSSS!! I've made some changes to it! I actually wanted to change the template but had some troubles with it. So for this time, i guess this should do just well. 

I wanted to constantly make DIY's, Photoshop Tutorials, and share my artworks at least once a week (if not possible, every 1,5 weeks perhaps...), so on the left section there i've put a logo of my current DIYs, tutorials, and artworks. So each time i've made a new post about it, u'll see it on the left section bar. And i'll also share my self made "quotes", based on experiences and personal side of view :)

So hope u enjoy this this new "look"

Riot Riot Riot Riot

It seems that i've got some spare time to FINALLY post this :"

Old Navy denim top, Unbranded red top & pants, DIY necklace, Choice glasses, VNC shoes, DailyWardrobe bag

 I've always loved how red and blue go together, and this time i tried to combine them both by layering 2 tops together 1 in denim and 1 in red. But i only wanted to show red as an essential so there it is as a collar and an accent on the sleeve.

 This looovely Daily Wardrobe floral bag is not only beautiful, it also became very useful to me! I can never resist floral patterns, and this one's quite unique with a twist of brown leather. And on the same hand, it's size makes it able to carry my laptop! Laptop's been an important item for me now that makes me have to bring it everywhere, and this bag allows me to do it. I could also use it for school or just for a day out. Me Gusta!

Sweets In The Rough

 Why do pink always look sooo sweet and attracting? But i like them all together only in different shades of pink. i mean like it's weird seeing 1 same exact color at 1 same time...

 

Raindeers, snowflakes and all sort of things reminds me of Christmas :) And i had always loved the Christmas atmosphere. The Christmas carols, the movies, the Christmas tree, the snow and pretty much everything. 

I remembered when i was still back in the US, Christmas had become my favorite moment that i've always been waiting for, although we don't celebrate it from the religion side. I just enjoy the moment :) I used to buy this small Christmas tree then decorate it with ornaments that i bought at the dollar store hahaha. Then we put presents beneath the tree, 1 for me 1 for my mom and 1 for my dad. They were super simple but i don't know why, it became very special to me and i felt very happy. And not forgetting the cookies + milk for Santa! I've always found them gone by the morning... but perhaps, Santa is known more as my dad a.k.a he ate all the cookies + milk, sigh. At school, we once made these gingerbread not so cookies cos they're made out of glue and stuffs... but we decorated it as we like to, with our names written on it, then hang it on the Christmas tree at our classroom! And i don't have to tell you how fun is the snowball fight, building a snowman, and also making snowangels, right?

 It seems that i'm enjoying writing down inspiring quotes on this artistic journal from GogirlMagazine!

 Gifted navajo top, PICNIC lace dress, SheInside collar, Soxgallery knee socks, AdorableProjects platform wedges, Baggubag backpack, Unbranded necklace

I guess taking down notes and writing down my To-Do-List is becoming my daily routine now. The schedule is being slightly tight and i also have this amnesia kinddof thing that likely makes me forget some things that i shouldn't hehehe... And also i needed a good media to write down inspirations or ideas that pops instantly. And i have to admit that this Gogirl! Journal did a really good job helping me. These aren't those kind of bonus agendas that i actually never use because of their small-area-to-write space, this is more of a personal journal where u can completely write anything with a super big space. I can even doodle on them! And my sister Sabrina actually begged me for the tribal journal... she said it's cute.

A Festiv touch

How about a touch of festival

 You thought i did the photoshoot alone did u? Well it seems that i have company...

 I guess it's been a while since she popped herself in this blog. So i guess why not make another photo with her! I was actually the one who dressed her up. But the said that she wanted to wear a printed bottom so i granted that.

 Btw, this tribal binder goes perfectly with her! They were very rich in patterns. And it actually came from CLATU :) She said she liked it and she even started to doodle with the binder

 Sabrina was wearing: Unbranded top, Gifted (from 7S!) geometric legging, DIY statement necklace, CandyFeet DocMarcs, ClatuShop tribal binder

 I was wearing: Romwe lightning dress, DIY denim jacket & necklace , PICNIC trousers, ShoeCorner tassel metallic wedges

And i've also been loving these pretty pair of wedges from Shoecorner! Tassels have been my personal favorite detais and love it even more on shoes. And i actually never have silver metallic shoes.... so this one would be a new record.

 

Make sure u've joined my GIVEAWAY to also win shoes from Shoecorner!
Have a great day :)
