fall wishlist

By the time I arrived in Shanghai next month, the weather will probably be chill and windy. Therefore, I've made some hard irresistible wish list. I'm in love with:

1. Acne Mape cropped lizard-embossed leather jacket crop jacket suits me because of my small short figure, it just makes me slightly taller.
2. H&M faux fur vest. Before I came back to Jakarta, I spotted this before, but at that time I wasn't sure to purchase it, especially to put it on my overweight luggage.
3. Rayban clubmaster. Urgh! I just love the design, so city chic.
4. Good quality point and shoot camera. Been struggling to carry my huge DSLR camera everywhere, so I need small easy good quality camera for my day-to-day activity. Suggestion?
5. Burberry Amber Belted wool Wilderley Jacket  Look instantly sophisticated with Burberry's jacket and never go wrong with wool for winter.
6. NARS pink lipstick.
7. Chanel Les Khakis de Le Vernis. I'm lately obsessed with khaki color.
8. Sergio Rossi mid calf boot. Again, I love khakis!

a come back post

Zara red lace dress and blue wedges, H&M earring.

Hey everyone! I think this is the post that I've been looking forward to publish since 124356 weeks ago but I simply haven't found the time to open Blogger with China's internet connection. And therefore, I have to change the whole story here. So, yes, basically now I'm here back in the city that I awfully missed, Jakarta. Really! And I'm so glad that yesterday I met with my closest friends in secondary school. We seem to have an endless talked over nice fish and chips from Fish and Co, countless drink refills, and very pleasant dinner in Playground (p.s: they have this tasty chicken breast and quite impressive choices of drinks). Anyway, I'm really looking forward to meet more friends here and have an enjoyable summer holiday especially after a long stay at a very polluted yet enchanting city, Shanghai. 

Sponsorship Post: Your Guide to Gorgeous Cocktail Dresses

Is there any item of clothing that makes a girl feel more glammed up than a gorgeous cocktail dress?

Really, you put one on and suddenly you’re no longer suzie from London or Deborah from Liverpool, but a Hollywood star who’s hitting the town with a colourful glass of fun in one hand and a VIP pass in the other.

Okay, we’re exaggerating, but there’s something about cocktail dresses that can not only transform the way we look but also the way we feel about ourselves.

Top brands like Ted Baker, French Connection and Oasis have put their own indelible spin on the cocktail dress, and there are now so many styles available to buy online that you can stay in tune with any social occasion.

Take a look through this gorgeous collection of cocktail dresses and you’ll find smart ones, sophisticated ones, all the way to sassy cocktail dresses that blend up a dizzying mix of colour and red carpet pizzazz.

If you want the sophisticated look, try a pencil dress – the appearance you’re after is sharp and sultry. Or instead go for the embellishments to achieve the ravishing Ascot glamour (we’re talking fabric flower corsages here).

You’ll even find cocktail dresses with gorgeous sequins that will have you glimmering and shimmering on your next night out with the girls.

One of our favourite styles though is the printed look. A cute pattern does a great job of injecting the dress with a fun character and personality. They’re ideal for those occasions when you want to dress up but are a little worried about looking a little too chic.

In fact, cocktail dresses are so versatile these days that you can even dress them down.

Exhibit A: Lilly Allen, the queen of the cocktail dress who famously paired hers with fresh white trainers. It was bold and brassy, but we couldn’t get enough of it.

So whether you like your fashion shaken or stirred, start shopping for cocktail dresses now and watch those special occasions become perfect occasions!

birthday post

I can't believe it, I'm officially 17 now. You know when I was a kid, I used to think becoming 17 is a very big deal, especially in country like Indonesia. Despite all the mature legal things I can do right now at this age, it's funny that I don't feel anything. I still feel like a small kid! Once I heard the saying, growing old is mandatory and growing up is optional and I guess, I can totally relate with it now. I really want to write something inspiring like what other bloggers would do. However, I can't really think of anything, other than how thankful I am for everything I have right now, including my Louboutin heels ;)

p.s: sorry for the annoying bandage on my left hand. It's there due to the minor surgery I had 2 weeks ago. Good thing is, I'm getting it off today. 

And again, thanks for reading my blog!

Say what?

So, I believe it's been a very long time since my last post right? Really sorry for that inconvenience. But, honestly I really want to update this blog, until I found out that someone hacked into my blogger account and change my previous password. The thing about living in an ex- Communist country (talking about China) is, they block many websites, and the most important thing is, they blocked the COOL ones, including Blogger! Okay, enough for the rambling. My point is, I'm beyond happy I can access my account (just yesterday) and never been this happy to see my blogger dashboard again. Also, I'm in Jakarta now for a month, hopefully I can update this blog like I used to. However, I left my DSLR camera in Shanghai, so I think the photos won't be that good. Okay then, I think see you again in the next post :)
