fifteen-feb

I miss wearing hats so I decided to wear it for the photos. I want to go out with this, but Jakarta isn't a hat-ty city. Nobody wears hats unless it's those trucker caps the pizza hut delivery guy puts on. This is why I don't like living here. Anyhow, I'm happy enough that I can wear it in the comfort of my own house, but I felt like something was missing when I took it out before I went out of the house.


this draped jacket was given by the lovely people at Velvet. do check out more of their collection at www.shopatvelvet.com ! they've really nice effortless-chic pieces that won't break your bank account.


infused some color into my look with this blue cropped top (I'm finally making friends with the colored pieces in my wardrobe now!)


jacket c/o velvet, forever21 blue crop top, topshop high waisted satin shorts, diy-ed flower hat, hermes jige clutch, zara boots.

la dolce vita

happy valentines everyone ! Whether you're spending it with your boyfriend, friends, or even just family, I hope that you're having a good one this year. If you're asking me.. I'm doing nothing today..lol.. Speaking of this love day, I thought I'd show you one of my favorite editorials that has a bit of a romance in it. I love the clothes, the models, the set, everything pretty much. these are all shot in venice. I hope you'll enjoy them as much as I do.

Smidge of Spring

I love colors, but i rarely wear them. Why? I have no idea. My hands tend to pick neutral pieces the whole time but for one sunday, I forced myself to choose something with color. I was already gonna grab my camel colored cardigan to top the look, but I thought yellow was more fun (plus the yellow cardigan was much more suitable for the hot weather than the camel one). Took a couple of photos right before I step out of the door..





supre cardigan, xsml dress, alexander mcqueen scarf worn as belt, vintage necklaces from mom, mulberry bag, schutz wooden platforms

alot of you asked me why I keep my flickr private. The flickr I use to upload my blog photos aren't for showing off my photography work. you may view my photography flickr at my other account at 2.55mm Photography :)

black leather and wool

finally an outfit post ! i've been wanting to post these up for quite a while, but I haven't got the time and the energy to do it (i know posting a post is only a click away.. but writing up and putting the post together takes quite a while!) Things We Love has kindly sent me this cute and cozy tunic ! it's got my feathers and a super soft wooly fabric I totally love ! check out their site for more awesome dresses & skirts.




i paired it with a leather jacket to toughen the girly feel and added my custom leather oversize clutch for a formal "day" look.

**update** lookbook deleted the look i posted earlier, so i lost all the hypes you gave me.. if you're kind enough, please re-hype this again :) thanks muchoossss !! xx

thoughts

sweater dresses, flat knee-high-boots and a smidge of socks is the ultimate comfy and chic outfit for me. I wish that I can wear this outfit out to town but I don't feel really comfortable having people stare at me like I'm an alien. I'm having up and downs in my life at the moment, and it's driving me nuts. So please bear with my lack of posting. I love blogging very much, but when I'm not in the mood to, my photos and outfits aren't at their best. All I can do is pray for the best now.
first time planning out a trip on my own.. I can't wait for May
i want a tulle skirt like this, as I said on twitter .
